Maximal lifespan in calorie restricted (CR) mice can range from 45 – 55 months. In this video, I present data for 3 studies on rapamycin-can it beat CR for maximal lifespan?

Not aware that CR provides same benefits in monkeys if started from human age 3 equivalent, so a comparison against the adult onset mouse CR gains may be necessary. NIA J/A onset rhesus monkeys on CR M & F both lived shorter than control – https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5247583/
