Getting back to the paper of Longo and his colleagues from 2010, let us see the life-span increase and the potential health benefits through dietary restriction and through mutations/drugs observed in model organisms [163].

Dietary restriction increases the life-span of yeast 3 fold, while mutations/drugs in combination with dietary restriction or starvation increases it 10 fold. The beneficial health effects of dietary restriction in yeasts show how these organisms extend their reproductive period, while mutations/drugs extend their reproductive period, and decrease the rate of DNA damage [163]. By using drugs or inducing genetic mutations, researchers maximize the activity of genes that promote longevity.
