    Resveratrol supplementation Resveratrol supplementation prolongs the lifespan [15254550; 17460219], but not in any case [17875315]. Worm
    Resveratrol supplementation Resveratrol significantly extends the lifespan [12939617]. Yeast
    Black rice extract supplementation In fruit fly, 30 mg/ml black rice extract prolonges mean lifespan by 14% which is accompanied with mRNA up-regulation of SOD1, SOD2, CAT and Rpn11 Rpn11 and with downregulation of Mth [22930061]. Fly +14
    D-chiro-inositol supplementation D-chiro-inositol supplementation to the diet extends adult longevity in both male and female animals. 20 microMolar dose of D-chiro-inositol extends median lifespan by 16.7 (p < 0.001) for males and 13% (p < 0.001) for females. Lifespan extension by D-chrio-inositol is accompanied by protection against oxidative and starvation stresses, improvement in health span, and not reduction in fecundity. Nuclear localization of foxo increases in D-chiro-inositol-fed animals [22843669]. Fly +13 to +16.7
    Pinitol supplementation Pinitol (a 3-methoxy analogue of D-chiro-inositol) supplementation to the diet. For both males and females, a 20 microMolar dose of pinitol significantly extends median lifespan by 13% (p < 0.05) and 12.5% (p < 0.05), respectively. Lifespan extension by pinitol is accompanied by protection against oxidative and starvation stresses, improvement in health span, and no reduction in fecundity. Pinitol increases organismal lifespan of both in dietary restriction and ad libitum conditions. Nuclear localization of foxo increases in pinitol-fed animals. Pinitol treatment significantly activates JNK and S6K, but not AKT [22843669]. Fly +12.5 to +13
    Cynomorium songaricum supplementation The yang-tonifying herbal medicine cynomorium songaricum Repr. (CS) supplementation to the diet extends both the mean and the maximum lifespan of adult females, but insignificantly that of males. In females, maximum lifespan (determined by the 90th survival percentile) is increased by up to 11.4% with 10 mg/mL CS and 5.7% with both 20 and 30 mg/mL Cs. Mean lifespan is significantly extended by 15, 18 and 11% upon treatment with 10, 20, and 30 mg/mL CS, respectively (all P <0.001). Increased lifespan by CS is correlated with higher resistance to oxidative stress and starvation and lower lipid hydroxyperoxids levels as well as accompanied by beneficial effects, such as improved mating readiness, increased fecundity, and suppresion of age-related learning impairment in aged animals [22844336].

    Tyrosol treatment Treatment with tyrosol (250 microMolar) extends mean, median, and maximum, lifespan by 21, 21, and 11% [22824366]. Worm +21 +21 +11
    Methionine restriction Restriction of the methionine content in the culture extends mean and maximum lifespan by up to 29 and 16% (1/10 methionine content) [15141092]. Yeast +29 +16
    Spermidine treatment Treatment with 0.2 mM spermidine extends mean and maximum lifespan of wild-type by 16 and 13% significantly (<0.005) as well as the mean and maximum lifespan in sir-2.1(ok434) by 12 and 11% significantly (<0.01). Worm +16 +13
    Trehalose treatment Treatment with trehalose reduces neurodegeneration in a transgenic mouse model of taupathy (human mutant P301S tau mouse. Neuronal survival is evaluated by trehalose. Trehalose induces autophagy in the brain, where the number of neurons containing tau inclusions is significantly reduced as well as the amount of insoluble tau protein and the protein levels of p62. However, trehalose fails to activate autophagy in the spinal cord, where it has no impact on the level of sarkosyl-insoluble tau. Trehalose has also no effect on the motor impairment of human mutant P301S tau transgenic mice [22689910]. Mouse
    Trehalose treatment Treatment with trehalose starting from the young-adult stage extends the mean lifespan by over 30% without any side effects. Trehalose treatment starting even from the old-adult stage shortly thereafter retards the age-associated decline in survivorship and extends the remaining lifespan by 60%. Lifespan extension by trehalose lowers the age-independent vulnerability. Trehalose increases reproductive span and retards the age-associated decrease in pharyngeal-pumping rate and the accumulation of lipofuscin autofluorescence as well as enhances thermotolerance and reduces polyglutamine. The lifespan extending effect of trehalose is abolished in daf-2 mutants [20477758]. Worm +30 to +60
    Beauveriolide I treatment Treatment with beauveriolide I (20 microgram/mL) extends chronological lifespan in BY4741 by around 50% [22790951]. Yeast +50
    Black tea extract supplementation Supplementation of the diet with black tea extract extends the lifespan by 10% (from 51 to 56 days) and is associated with higher SOD1 and CAT expression [19770032]. Fly +10
    Apple polyphenol supplementation Supplemention of the diet with apple polyphenol significantly extends mean lifespan by 10% and is accompanied by up-regulation of SOD1, SOD2 and CAT as well as downregulation of MTH in aged animals [21319854]. Fly +10
    Blueberry extract supplementation Supplementation of the diet with 5 mg/mL blueberry extract significantly extends the mean lifespan by 10% and is accompanied by an up-regulation of superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), and Rpn11 and down-regulationg of Methuselah (MTH). Lifespan is only extended in Oregon-R wild-type but not in SOD(n108) or Cat(n1) mutant strains [22197903]. Fly +10
