Smokers who keep smoking may live as long or longer than non smokers.

Everybody here has stories of relatives and friends who chainsmoked until they died in their 80's or 90's, and others have stories of friends and relatives who died in their 30's-60's.

Pro tip: If you like to smoke, smoke. Enjoy your life while you have it, we're all going to die, and we can all drop dead at any moment or get killed by something, so fuck it.

As an ex smoker, thats dumb as fuck. You can fee it fucking you up. Your lungs hurt and most smokers dont even like it that much because it tastes like shit and smells horrible. Its a serious addiction that most cant drop.
I may have enjoyed smoking but why would I want to cripple myself to the point where im wheezing after running a block? Your logic is what fat disgusting landwhales tell themselves as they shovel butter into their gullets.

Smokers that start smoking as early as 10 may also live as long as non smokers. I love generalized nonsense statements.

Takes about 25 years to reverse what smoking does. Another way to say it is if you make it to 65 and you quit smoking by 40 you might live as long as anyone else that didn't smoke. Might...

A water fast of at least 21 days essentially resets your body. It helps it clean out any gunk(including the cancer cells that build up over time), regulate hormones and other bodily functions.

No food at all for 21 days?

Correct. Just water and electrolytes.

It gets you high as fuck too, apparently. I've experimented with a day or two of fasting and intermittent fasting. Never got to the point of hallucination.

Real science doesn’t use words like “may”. It may rain tomorrow. It also might not. Who the fuck knows....

I would actually prefer a science that used the word "may" a lot more.

Science can never "prove" anything, only create a hypothesis based on observation and then try to rule out things that would contradict the hypothesis.

Science should never be "settled" as there are far too many complicated variables that cannot be controlled for.

All this "science is settled" bullshit and other declarations are fucking insanity.
