As I recall, the AMA did a study whereby they said "okay, let's presume we can cure everything that kills people. What happens to the life expectancy?" I can't find it in the amount of time I'm interested in spending, but the answer was something like "we gain an extra 15 years."

There's a real problem with living in a reducing environment. It really fucks with your chemistry.
