Hey, it´s basic biology that´s discussed here...

Regeneration = accelerated cellular division

Accelerated cellular division = Higher stress on the cells

higher stress on cells = shortened haylick limits.

Shortened Haylick limits = shortened lifespan.

Ergo, Kaneki who has regenerated multiple times have lost lifespan in exchange for healing faster...

...

Now, of course, there´s a exception of this regeneration that doesn´t shorten or involve the haylick limit in any way, capable of extending one´s life and potentially making the character immortal unless overkill is involved (Evidence A= Noro)...

However...those kind of cells involved in such regeneration are also known as "Cancer Cells"

So, either Kaneki is healthy and got a shortened lifespan as result of his regeneration...

...or his rc-cells are basically turning him more and more into a walking, sentient, cancer-kagune capable of immortality at the prize of his very existence.

(I doubt Noro was happy with what he was...just look at his final form and you get an idea of what Kaneki and all ghouls for that matter might end up as if the "immortal cancer division" theory is applied to them... being killed is preferable in that situation.)

...

So it can be either way...

Either he dies as a human...

...or he lives as a cancer tumor with a conscience.

Choose.
