Most diet programs allow you to lose weight by restricting caloric intake. The methods of restriction may include low fat diets, high intake of fruits and vegetables or low carb diets. If you are successful in losing weight and keeping it off with any of these programs you are destined to age at a fast rate.
Why?
Aging is the imbalance between wear and tear of the body and the rate of tissue repair. While wear and tear to some extent is out of our control the rate of tissue repair is not. The greater the repair rate of the body, the slower the rate of aging, vice versa, the slower the repair rate of the body the faster the rate of aging. Excess caloric intake is essential for a rapid repair rate of the body,but if your diet is set only to meet your basic metabolic needs it means that your rate of repair will be slow due to inadequacy of caloric intake. Therefore most diets will cause you to age faster.
To age slowly, you must have a non-restrictive diet but most non-restrictive diets will shunt excess calories into fat, so while you may age more slowly you will be getting fatter.
The Sabbatical Diet is a non-restrictive diet which selectively shifts the excess caloric intake into protein metabolism and tissue repair and is the only diet that slows the aging process while preventing obesity at the same time.
