In rhesus monkey studies, calorie restriction benefited older monkeys but not younger ones, contrasting with mouse studies where beginning calorie restriction at a young age produced the best results.
Notes on verification
Confirmed by NIA and peer-reviewed Nature Communications study on rhesus macaque calorie restriction, corroborated by multiple independent sources including primary research.
