A study showed that a genetic predisposition for higher muscle strength predicts a longer lifespan and a lower risk for developing common diseases. This is a highly comprehensive international study on hereditary muscle strength and its relationship to morbidity. The genome and health data of more than 340,000 Finns was used in the research.
Notice that higher strength (subclinical super-strength) correlates with both longer lifespan and stronger constitution / immune system. Over in Terramagne, soups often have those latter traits alongside their primary superpower(s). So now I wonder if this population also has higher calorie needs and/or faster healing.
