Caloric restriction and reduced metabolic rates are strongly tied to the body’s lowest resting temperature, which research in both animals and humans indicate may support increased longevity.
The evidence is convergent. Multiple independent sources reach the same conclusion, the underlying mechanism is well-characterized, and even the field's most cautious voices treat it as worth doing.

Every Sunday: the week’s new conflicts and verdict changes — and nothing else.
Native comments, Twitter mentions, and Reddit threads about this claim — surfaced together so the conversation isn't fragmented across platforms.
Bookmarking — the dossier-vs-overview split is the right call. Most of the time I want overview; sometimes I want receipts.
Would love a "what would change this verdict" RSS feed. Sign me up if it exists.
Longevity w/lower body temp.
Low body temp been shown to improve health and longevity.
Longevity w/lower body temp.
Caloric restriction and reduced metabolic rates are strongly tied to the body’s lowest resting temperature, which research in both animals and humans indicate may support increased longevity.
Caloric restriction and reduced metabolic rates are strongly tied to basal temperature, with research in both animals and humans indicating that lower basal temperatures may support increased longevity.
