Figure 6. High sugar diet and antioxidants increase lifespan. (A, B) Survivorship curves of males (A) and females (B) of six cohorts of flies, each raised on a different diet (C:P 2/1, blue; C:P 2/1 + curcumin, green; C:P 2/1, + super fruits, red, C:P 8/1, purple, C:P 8/1 + curcumin, black; C:P 8/1 + super fruits, orange). For statistics see Table 2. (C, D) Life history charts of all six male (C) and all six female (D) populations. Horizontal gray bars depict health-span and black bars ill-span. (F) Schematic representation of the different feeding paradigms used.
