I do have to wonder though if continued high levels of pressurised oxygen is good for you. Hyperoxia and all the free radicals it generates will almost definitely shorten your life.

On the other hand, northern European goat-herders did have time to evolve the ability to digest the milk of other species into adulthood, and some of us inherited those genes. There's also value in testing on animals. For one thing, many people don't mind harming and killing lab animals but would object to harming human subjects. In the case of longevity, you're right, an experiment where humans are fed resveratrol for their whole lives will be a lot more convincing that it works on humans than an experiment where mice are fed resveratrol for their whole lives. Any individual who wants to wait 80 years for the results is completely justified.
