There's evidence in the scientific literature that we already know how to slow aging. Hundreds of leads are summarized in the histogram at http://morse.kiwi.nz

The May 22 paper by Hashizume et al suggests glycine[1]. I took the liberty of data mining my big spread sheet of life span experiments[2] for it. It turns out that it was reported in 2011 that adding glycine to the diet of lab animals let them live 28% longer[3]. A ton of other cool experiments have already been done[2].
