These weren't skinny fat mice. Only beyond 40% reduction were the calories insifficient. 40% restriction and less was sustainable.
All other animals tested show similar patterns, including humans, which of course is in early stages.

This is clear.There seems to be some debate as to whether his caloric restricted diet helped or hurt the cause. He died at 79 years old.
He died of ALS. For this reason, CR is not recommended for those with ALS.
I prefer to look at actual studies, not discredit a large body of science based on a single person in a unique situation, even if that person is a leader in the research.
Also, those photos are entirely unnecessary. We all know what muscles, pubic hair, and a lack of either look like. Please remove them.
Anyway, I'm done here. I'll just go by John's/Jeff's recommendations for what is most important.
