I don't assume anything. It could end any minute. But assuming the best outcome, those last ten years are when you are the most frail and helpless. No thank you.
A quick look at the study seems to indicate the years added is more like 3 years, but it takes 10 years to kick in.

I'm a big proponent of enjoying life, rather than trying to extend it as much as possible. I ride a motorcycle in part because it's cheaper on a day-to-day basis, but also it's just more fun than being stuck in a car.
Why would i want to live longer if it meant that I had to give up cheese?
Yes, things that taste good are usually not good for you. But provided you maintain your physical condition otherwise, why insist on denying yourself all the enjoyment life has to offer?
I have coconut cheese that tastes just as good. That’s a false notion that plant-based food always tastes worse as there are always good and bad options.
Yes. Whole grains have repeatedly been shown to have health benefits. Though you should obviously still avoid eating more calories than your body needs.
or just eat less carbs and burn more calories because your acetatic acid metabolism works and be more active. then you can simply breath out the calories you dont need.
Great, 10 more years of sticking a tube up my dick , shitting the bed, and wondering where Delilah is and why she hasn't come home (I've never known anyone named Delilah)
Somehow I almost stopped eating meat over the past couple years without even trying. I used to eat it a lot but I just started to crave it less and less and now I eat it like once a week maybe. I noticed limiting carbs has a good effect on me, so I don't eat a lot of them too. But I could not give up diary, it's like all of my favorite food.
Yeah but they're the last 10 of your life, which usually means that they're the shitty, diaper wearing, going senile, not allowed to drive anymore years. I'd rather die younger and at all at once, thanks.
