I recall thet Hochshield (spelling only approximate) fed antioxidants to
rats in the mid 1970's, or earlier, and also got a 10% increase in
lifespan, but as I recall, there were questions about the statistical
significance of such a small effect compared to energy or methionine
restriction, which produce 40-50% increases.
