Prolonged Cartilage Activity – Chondrocytes may remain active longer than expected, producing more matrix and delaying natural tissue slowdown.

Skeletal Maturation Variability – In individuals with open growth plates, reduced senescence may postpone plate closure, potentially extending growth phases which may lead to tall stature.

Adaptive Joint Responses – Some users report sensations of pressure or mild discomfort as cartilage adjusts to extended regenerative signaling.

The side effects described are theoretical, based on underlying biological mechanisms, and have not been empirically measured in controlled studies.
