It seems to me that the weight of evidence is showing that calorie restriction does extend human life span. I believe that a moderate level, where lido and exercise ability remain unaffected, is probably best suited to most people. It appears that at this level there are still anti-age benefits to be had.

and isnt that the point? anorexia is a severe mental disorder. good life enriching nutrition is irrelevant, abusive food intake is a tool, anorexics are not interested in good health, their desire to be “thin” above anything else has nothing to do with a healthy regimen.
in many ways this applies to the overweight, food is a side issue and perhaps a weapon they use against themselves. a highly nutritious diet, and i mean primarily raw, is excellent material for mind/brain health and balance – when the mind is healing the body heals too. compared to all western diets, (and there have been other studies not just the cornell one) moderate calorie restriction has to be the better route.

I think that there should be way more back up for this story than one study done dating back to 1930. This story would be just the thing to convince many vulnerable people to become anorexic, which, by the way has the highest mortality rate amongst mental illnesses as well as causing premature menopause, sterility and osteoporosis.
