" Dietary restriction gives fruit flies a rhythm for a long life "

Dietary restriction enhances the expression of the circadian clock genes in the peripheral tissue of fruit flies. Researchers show that dietary restriction, induced by reducing protein in the diet, increased the amplitude of circadian clocks and enhanced the cycles of fat breakdown and fat synthesis. This improvement in fat metabolism may be a key mechanism in explaining why dietary restriction extends lifespan in several species, including the flies in this study.

A possible explanation for the longevity effects of melatonin use in an aging population?

Dietary restriction? I find more activity, more veg, fats, quality proteins. Silica, Zinc,B12, E, D3, etc. People think they are healthy enough to fast, but in truth they don't consume enough whole foods!
The Curcadian rhythms fade into the will once ones photonic system becomes trained. I like to sleep in a very dark room. Be safe.
