Question duration of human life worries many scientists. American experts have conducted experiments on laboratory rats, flies and fruit flies, whose genes are 60% identical to human. The study's authors argue that while reducing diet of rats for 40% of the animals live 30% longer. The human dimension is 20 years of life. The same result in the observation of flies: the use of diet and certain drugs, scientists were able to extend the life not only of rodents but Drosophila. Researchers believe that the reciprocal relationship between the amount of food and life is absolutely in all living organisms, and the man in this sense, is no exception.
