It wasn't scientists who tried that on humans (I hope) but unlike monkeys, famines and malnutrition seems to never have had similarly good results in humans. Snark aside, that's interesting but I wonder what degree of starving produces such good effects -- clearly, no-food kills us so learning just how much or how little to "starve" is healthiest would help.
