    Studysummary In this study, researchers observed that graded calorie restriction in mice led to changes in stable isotope ratios and elemental content in bone collagen and hair keratin, potentially indicating intensified mobilization of endogenous proteins and altered bone collagen structure with increased dietary stress.
