Nathan Goodyear on 15 Mar 19Calorie restriction and protein restriction inhibit IGF-1, insulin, AkT, PI3K, and mTOR. In addition, those with protein intake >20%, compared to 10%, was associated with a 4 fold increase in cancer death risk and a 75% increase in overall mortality. Protein restriction inhibits tumor growth, associated with a 30-70% reduction in IGF-1, reduced the accumulation of oxidized proteins. The restriction of tryptophan alone reduced inflammation.
