The Ratio of Macronutrients, Not Caloric Intake, Dictates Cardiometabolic Health, Aging, and Longevity in Ad Libitum-Fed Mice.

TLDR
The Geometric Framework, a state-space nutritional modeling method, was used to measure interactive effects of dietary energy, protein, fat, and carbohydrate on food intake, cardiometabolic phenotype, and longevity in mice fed one of 25 diets ad libitum, suggesting that longevity can be extended in ad Libitum-fed animals by manipulating the ratio of macronutrients.

Promoting Health and Longevity through Diet: From Model Organisms to Humans

TL;DR: Findings indicate that meal timing is crucial, with both intermittent fasting and adjusted diurnal rhythm of feeding improving health and function, in the absence of changes in overall intake.

Facing up to the global challenges of ageing.

TL;DR: Interventions, including changes to lifestyle and medical innovations, are needed to prevent disease and increase late-life health in humans.

Metabolic Control of Longevity

TL;DR: The introduction of strategies that promote metabolic fitness may extend healthspan in humans as several metabolic alterations accumulate over time along with a reduction in biological fitness, suggesting the existence of a "metabolic clock" that controls aging.

Interventions to Slow Aging in Humans: Are We Ready?

TL;DR: There was consensus that there is sufficient evidence that aging interventions will delay and prevent disease onset for many chronic conditions of adult and old age and their potential to be safe and effective in extending human healthspan.

Generalized Additive Models: An Introduction with R, Second Edition

Simon N Wood
TL;DR: In this article, a simple linear model is proposed to describe the geometry of linear models, and a general linear model specification in R is presented. But the theory of linear model theory is not discussed.
