Long Live Life

New research from the Institute of Healthy Ageing at University College London, suggests that eating a low protein vegetarian diet could extend human life-span.

The research is built on earlier findings that showed a diet just above malnutrition levels can extend life by as much as 25 years. This new research finds a reduction in meat and fish protein is the important factor not the level of calories.
