It's been a long time since I posted anything yet I am doing well. I just wanted to share this article from LEF that seems to be following a similar thread to what I have been attempting. Interesting enough their conclusion is that a cocktail of nutrients seems to work better than taking supplements of the same kind.

An examination of their spreadsheet shows some interesting targets though not exactly the SENS targets they are similar in function.

Summary
THE 30 NUTRIENTS USED IN THIS HEALTH AND LONGEVITY STUDY
By devising a supplement formula comprised of multiple nutrients that attack these five mechanisms through multiple pathways, international researchers have significantly lengthened the life span of experimental animals. Just as importantly, the nutrient mixture markedly enhances animals' overall mobility and cognition, restoring function in those areas to youthful levels.
The marked benefits demonstrated in response to this 30-ingredient nutrient cocktail help explain why studies with single-agent compounds do not always produce meaningful longevity-enhancing results.
All of the individual nutrients in the mixture are known to be safe and effective in humans, though time will tell if the specific combination of all thirty will prove as effective in humans as it has in mice. The preponderance of the evidence, however, suggests it may live up to expectations.
