Aubrey de Grey from Ending Aging:

There were actual land sites all over the planet that should be very badly contaminated by lipofuscin [waste byproducts of metabolism that our cells can't break down and, therefore, contribute to aging.], because their soil has been seeded with the stuff for generations. I speak, of course, of graveyards.

…

there was no accumulation of lipofuscin in cemetaries – and if it were there, we certainly ought to be aware of it, because lipofuscin is fluorescent.
