Cutting Calories May Aid Immune System:
"Calorie restriction might help the body's immune system, researchers report.

But the researchers note that other studies have linked calorie restriction and longer life in short-lived organisms including worms, flies, and spiders.

The final verdict isn't in yet on calorie restriction and human longevity."
