    In the video, “How to Live 100+,” Dan Buettner claims to have found a formula for longevity.

    1930). Since then, many studies have proven that DR can extend longevity on wide range of taxa (Fontana et al., 2010). In addition, research done on animal models reveals that there exists conserved molecular mechanisms known to influence ageing.
