Relationships between membrane fatty acid profiles and longevity are inconsistent,
so they dont explain longevity.
A decrease in oxidative damage has been proposed as a mechanism; however, a lack of correlation between reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and life span was recently reported in Drosophila
Yes, its not a matter of ROS, but a matter of autophagy that correlates with lifespan.
