    To my knowledge nothing so far discovered has extended our lifespan. So far we've only figured out how to stop a lot of things from prematurely ending a life.

      Anti-aging science is starting to rev up tbh. We've already effectively de-aged rats and cell cultures. Extrapolating that to humans is a ways off, but not impossible by any means.
