The flies were transferred to new vials between stages and the number of dead flies recorded at each transfer until all flies were dead.

这些果蝇从一个阶段到另一个阶段时会被转到新的瓶子里，每次转移都会记录死去的果蝇数量，直到所有果蝇死亡。

Flies on the cranberry supplement during the health stage lived 25% longer than controls, on average. In the transition and senescence phases, the supplement extended the average life span of the remaining flies by 30% compared with controls.

在健康期摄取了蔓越莓补充剂的果蝇寿命平均比对照组长25%。在过渡期和衰老期，这种补充剂让存活果蝇的寿命比对照组长30%。

Analysis of proteins from the flies' heads found that cranberry supplementation at all three stages reduced cellular damage caused by oxidative, or environmental, stress and appeared to alter molecular pathways involved in oxidative stress responses. Researchers noted cranberries are especially rich in phytochemicals, which are healthy, plant-based compounds.

对果蝇头脑的蛋白质进行的分析发现，所有三个阶段摄入的蔓越莓补充剂都减少了因氧化应激或环境压力造成的细胞损伤，并且似乎改变了氧化应激反应所涉及的分子路径。研究人员指出，蔓越莓尤其富含植物素，这是一种有益健康、基于植物的化合物。

Caveat: The research hasn't been proven in human subjects.
