Chinese Medical Journal study reviews the impact of caloric restriction on cardiovascular health - EurekAlert


<strong>Caloric restriction (CR) is a dietary regimen that focuses on reducing calorie intake without causing malnutrition. It has gained attention as a nonpharmacological therapy for improving cardiovascular health. In this review, researchers explored the interaction between CR and sirtuins&mdash;proteins regulating vital cellular processes like metabolism, gene expression, DNA repair, and apoptosis&mdash;and their positive effects on cardiovascular diseases. Understanding these links could pave the way for innovative treatments for improving cardiovascular health.</strong>
