It induces beneficial metabolic and cellular changes. One study showed a 25% reduction in caloric intake resulted in a 10-15% reduction in mortality risk. Frustratingly though, it is often difficult to sustain it for long. Feelings of deprivation, frustration, or even anxiety together with habits of dining out or celebrations often involve addictive high-calorie foods.
