why our body is able to self heal but it will stop working and let us die when we get old?
In: 3
Your body is just a machine that your DNA uses to reproduce/procreate. When you are young, it is in your DNA’s best interest to heal your wounds. When you are past reproductive age, your DNA doesn’t really care if you live or die (this is not 100% accurate, but simple enough for ELI5). So your body (guided by your DNA) does its best to make sure you get to reproductive age, then kinda stops caring what happens to you.
