If, as the anti smokers postulate, smoking is a deadly "addiction", trimming years off the life of the smoker, how do they explain such examples as Japan, Israel, Greece, Cuba, Spain, Italy and France? How can it be that people in these countries smoke far more than people in the United States, yet manage to live substantially longer?

So the moral is diet is more important than smoking habits?
By the way non-smokers actually suffer more heart disease than smokers!

Don't join the flat earth society..believe the facts, NOT your doctor!
