Better to go hungry than go running

An animal study suggests that if you are interested in longevity it is better to go hungry than it is to go running. This was also found in a study done years ago when calories were cut by 25% and mice lived longer. Only problem was that 25% less calories were a near on impossibly low amount of calories to maintain normal functioning in humans.

Of course animal studies are not always the best predictor of human physiology.
