Having the original study would be great, because this article sounds like it's mostly beneficial because it helps lose weight and people at a healthy weight generally live longer anyway. Can't find a link to the original study though so it might have different results.

I think there's some data on research made on mice and I've heard of it. It'd still be bold to say it'd work on humans, increasing life expectancy by 30% :)

There's no data that shows this in humans, as far as I know. Other animals, yes. But thinking it works in humans is so far just conjecture.
