πŸ”¬ New meta-analysis alert! πŸ§ͺ Researchers compared rapamycin and metformin to dietary restriction across 167 studies in 8 vertebrate species.

πŸ“ˆ Key finding: Rapamycin mirrors dietary restriction's longevity benefitsβ€”but metformin falls short.

⚠️ High heterogeneity and species bias remind us: translation to human health still needs careful navigation.

🧠 Full of insights for aging science, pharmacology, and precision medicine!
