g a treatment that they hope will fight the “dia” of getting older.

Rearcher Dr. Piper told the Independent: "If you reduce the diet of a rat by 40 percent it will live for 20 or 30 percent longer. So we would be talking 20 years of human life. This has shown on all sorts of animals, even Labradors (a kind of dog)." The scientists are also studying fruit flies, which share 60 percent of human genes and age in a similar manner, and mice.
