On Premature Death & Muscle Building Products



I am highly suspicious of muscle building products that work. I won’t deny their power to morph regular peoples’ bodies into mega-muscle machines. However, I am skeptical about the long term effects. These products aren’t creating natural looking bodies. Granted, there is an obesity epidemic in 1st world nations. However, I must question if men are really intended to look like this.
If having one of these supposed ideal bodies is healthy, how do we explain this website's profound observation:

"One-Third Of WrestleMania VI Competitors Now Dead"

That's 1 in every 3 wrestlers dead in only 14 years!!!  That should be enough to scare almost anyone away.

My opinion is that bulking up is anything but healthy, and that it is more dangerous than smoking cigarettes.

This website relates that smokers are only expected to live 10 fewer years than those that don't mix.

Nicotene, Caffeine, Taurine, ect. Soda Pop

It is completely beyond me why I have yet to hear of a soda pop that uses nicotene.  One would think that this method for adminstering nicotene would not only be affective, but also save lives.  That is, I want to make beverages with nicotene in them.

Airplane flights would probably be much more pleasant for a good many of smokers. In fact, these drinks would probably help a good many of people quit smoking. Additionally, drinking beverages with nicotine in them would probably extend a good many of peoples lives. For example, they already know from research that people are more likely to live to be a 100 years old if they smoke, despite the fact that smoking should generally be thought of as a killer for the vast majority of people.

Pipes, Cigars: Safer than Cigarettes



Cigarettes are almost certainly and entirely bad, but why?
I suggest that a part of the reason cigarettes kill is that many of them have polyester filters.
Polyester sometimes feels snug, as many of us know through wearing polyester clothing.
Leave polyester against your skin or body tissue for an extended period of time, it is bound to become irritating.
In addition, when smokers inhale, they also may be inhaling small particles of filter, especially if the cigarettes are old and the polyester is broken up.
Through investigation, it occurs to my thoughts that the irritation that these small polyester particles give to the lungs can cause cancer.  15 or so years before Camel, the company that invented the filter cigarette, began putting polyester filters in their products, lung cancer was virtually unheard of among smokers, but those 15yrs gave just enough time for a link of smoking cigarettes with cancer. 

In addition, there was even the possibility that centenarians had their life expectancy increase if they were a smoker, but that I hypothesize was because they started smoking before polyester filters had been invented.  As filtered cigarettes have become more pervasive, so too has the morbidity of cigarette related products increased.  I suggest it is that the polyester filter that is doing us wrong, while the past ways of smoking, such as unfiltered pipes and cigars are actually safer.
