As a daily runner that makes a LOT of sense. I wouldn't have been able to put my finger on it and express it but a similar idea has already been told to me, in another context, in another form. I also think the conclusion of the research and the poster you responded to is rather wrong. It doesn't matter how long you live if that longevity isn't pleasantly usable.
From the elderly I take care of around me, I would rather die sooner from some random disease than live longer and be as useless as they are (both physically and cognitively). |

Agreed. The "human body is a battery" type of arguments are a common misconception and have their roots on the fact that the only positive thing we've found about inflammation so far is that it's an integral part of muscle growth as a response to exercise stimuli/stress via the mtor pathways. But that's a one-off you don't need continuous inflammation to maintain your muscle and enjoy the long term benefits of it.
Oh and the plant based protein is also wrong as that protein is 99% of the time incomplete. You need multiple sources.
