This doesn't hold true for all cell types. There's a group in Sweden that has C14 dated the replication rate of some cell types. IIRC some cell types - some neurons and adipocytes - only replicate every 10 years or less. Their method has something to do with C14 from nuclear weapons: people who lived before they went off wouldn't have as much. And a lot of C14 would be from the uptake of nuke C14 since. IIRC pre-nuke people have adipocytes with C14 amounts compared to post-nuke people because those cells barely divide. That's what I picked up from a talk way back. I believe this is the same group.
