Living is all about quality of life if the quality isn't good then why bother living?

That's exactly the point. A few years ago, I happened to listen to someone who advocated healthy living. He argued that if we want longevity, then we should avoid tobacco, alcohol, fast food, salt, sugar, cheese, french fries, all types of meat, fish, butter, coca cola... and some 8,745 other food items. I said "No, thanks. I prefer to live up to 80 years of age, eating and drinking whatever I want rather than living up to 100 years and obeying your orders."

Yes, besides I don't think that guy knew what he was talking about because everybody needs some salt and meats to survive. Maybe he was talking about certain types of meat but any meat that's fresh is generally good for you in moderation.
