If resveratrol supplementation is as good as the studies suggest and you confined yourself to people in say their 30's to 50's who are taking it as a supplement (so it could add 10-20+% to currently expected longevities) then you could rake in the bucks.

I suspect there are very few people who understand the subtleties of these topics sufficiently well to allow you to strike a reasonable balance between undercutting the competition and still being relatively conservative with respect to avoiding problems if the deliverables don't arrive when you anticipated they would.
