Calorie Restricted Diets
I was watching “My Life in Food” and came across the episode with a raw vegan runner and a couple practicing calorie restriction (CR) to extend their lifespan. Like a lot of people, I had a negative gut reaction to the whole concept of calorie restricted lifestyle…right up until she stated that she ate approximately 1600 calories a day. I had to laugh at myself. I mean, I have not eaten that much in a few years!
