The benefits of dietary restriction (DR) on health and aging prevention have been well recognized. Recent studies suggest that DR may enhance brain functions including learning and memory, synaptic plasticity, and neurogenesis, all of which are associated with brain health. Under the stress stimulated by DR, a favorable environment is established for facilitating neuronal plasticity, enhancing cognitive function, stimulating neurogenesis and regulating inflammatory response. DR-induced expressions of factors such as heat shock proteins (HSPs), neurotrophic factors, and Sirtuin1 (SIRT1) are responsible for the effect of DR on the brain. Due to the difficulty in practising long-term DR in human, the potential mimics of DR are also discussed.
