The Calorie Restriction Society - for people trying to live longer by eating fewer calories

Welcome to the Calorie Restriction (CR) Society

Our goal is to help people of all ages live longer and healthier lives simply by:

• eating fewer calories
• maintaining adequate nutrition

Since the 1930's extensive scientific research has shown that calorie restricted (CR) diets improve health and extend lifespans of nearly every species tested, including worms, spiders, rodents, dogs, cows and monkeys. We believe it is likely that people who carefully adopt a CR diet will see similar results.

The CR Society supports the efforts of people who practice CR for future longevity, current health, or other benefits; those curious about or interested in understanding the effects of the diet; and those interested in the development of related, science-based life-extension and health-enhancing technologies. Our mailing lists provide a rich forum for such topical discussions.

Calorie Restriction...the only proven life-extension method known to modern science.
