Fun fact, Lithium-ion batteries chemically degrade if discharged to very low voltages, and can't retain the same charge as before. The percentage you see on your phone, is just a representation of the voltage that the chemical reaction inside your battery is having.
If your battery is discharged very often past certain "percentage", say for example, you discharge it all they way to 0% every single time, it will lose its ability to retain charge the same way it did.
The body is in a way a battery, an ongoing chemical reaction, just infinitely more complex, but the principle is the same, if you "discharge" your battery to 0% every day, you are definitely not going to make it to 100 years, guaranteed.
