RESEARCH AT OFAS
Sulfur Amino Acid Restriction Diet Boosts Lifespan
For over three decades, OFAS has researched the health benefits of dietary sulfur amino acid restriction (SAAR). Our studies show that reducing intake of these amino acids can lead to a remarkable increase in lifespan. lower body weight, less fat accretion, improved insulin sensitivity, and reduced incidence of age-related disease, including cancer. Having established the effects of SAAR, we now seek to understand the mechanisms by which they are accomplished.
