That's what surprised me, too. Our bodies don't really "feel" all that active (even on a cellular level).


And that’s -only- the red blood cells. Consider how that’s only a tiny portion of your body. Think of all the other cells everywhere else. Constantly dying and being born. Isn’t it every 7 years or so that pretty much every cell in our body’s rotated out?


The red blood cells are actually roughly 80% of all cells in your body.
