The expected benefits include improve lifespan and fitness, by activating the animal's cellular stress response.
A possible example may be resveratrol, which is famously found in red wine, which modulates over two dozen receptors and enzymes in mammals.
Such as in the case of cinnamon, which in several studies have shown to help treat type 2 diabetes, but hasn't been confirmed in meta analysis.
