Fast food or long life?

Restricting calorie intake can prolong life, according to scientists studying ageing monkeys. At the end of a 20-year research project, half of the animals allowed to eat as much as they liked had died, while 80% of the monkeys given a third less calories each day had survived. But, assuming the same holds true for human beings, is it worth the effort? Would you rather live long and hungry, or die young and satisfied?
