It's doing it by breaking down the sensory characteristics of a meal.
The meal ingestion induces an increase in the EGG amplitude [ 61] that runs parallel with gastric electrical response, gastric distension, and antral contractions [ 62] and is influenced by the physical and chemical characteristics of the meal.

After six months, those on restricted diets showed lower body temperature and levels of insulin in their blood when they had not had a meal, both characteristics of long-lived people and animals.
