Abstract
⺠DNA methylation is affected by diet and changes as we grow older. ⺠DNA methylation affects gene function, and so may be a link between diet and aging. ⺠We need good model systems to study and understand these likely interactions. ⺠Cell lines and animals provide useful models, but have drawbacks. ⺠The honeybee may offer several advantages over other more commonly-used models.
