[QUOTE="Jim62, post: 632522, member: 6655"] I'm pretty convinced that all their "risk factors" are pretty much a product of people doing "studies" on the government nickel. They have to find out something, or there's no more free money. If you read these studies, they very carefully state that the study "seems to indicate" that doing X "may" increase your risk for whatever. To me, that says that the study also "seems to indicate" that doing X "may NOT" increase blah blah blah..... When I had my minor heart attack at 59, I had NONE of the risk factors going on. A friend of mine has extremely high cholesterol, and she's a vegetarian. I'm sure that if you eat Mcdonalds hamburgers and fries every meal, every day it probably isn't good for you. Same with smoking. But, if we stop to THINK about people we know that have heart problems, even that connection is unclear. In my opinion, most studies seem to indicate that if you are alive, you have a 100% chance of dying. Enjoy it while you can. Smoke'em if you got'em. [/QUOTE]
