terms Science. It is extended by 20% the life of a mouse, cutting up the body temperature of these animals, without limiting the quantity of food consumed, 20% females and 12% of males, with a view to being warm-blooded animals you can reduce the amount of calories consumed, according to an American study. The temperature of these animals was reduced from 0.3 to 0.5 degree Celsius. The survey sought to determine if the reduction of calories was the origin of extended life. "It is possible to maintain the longevity with a modest and prolonged decline in body temperature of the animal," said Bruno Conti, a professor at Scripps Research in California, one of higher institutes of research in the biomedical field.
