Longevity research correlates that 100%. Exercise is THE thing that keeps you going, followed very closely by what you eat. I got up to 300lbs this year. Felt miserable, but I can’t imagine what it would have felt like if I wasn’t also working out and at an active job.

Never stop moving.

Who knows. Maybe none. Probably would have been healthier while he was alive, though.

You can smoke daily and you're just significantly increasing your risk of cancer, pneumonia, copd, etc. It's bad for you, and certainly increases your risks of early death, but like trees said it's just a piece of the health puzzle a the end of the day.

If you're chair or bed bound all day though it's a much less healthy situation. People deteriorate quickly when they stop moving on their own.

Worked at a nursing home like 10 years ago, just as a cook. My wife is a nurse and worked at several nursing homes early on as well.

From what I saw when I worked at one though, every single person in their late 90s and 100s was still walking. They drank coffee (and got mad if anyone insisted they drink decaf instead), ate ice cream and bacon, woke up before 7 am, talked to people daily, some of them even snuck in the occasional smoke or beer in when family would pick them up for the day. Even a completely blind woman who was 102 was still walking around on her own two feet to get to and from places, with help of course. 

Not everyone has the luxury due to medical ailments, but if you have the ability don't stop walking and do whatever you can to keep moving. Movement is life.

Many of those people in their 90s or 100s eventually would die because they'd fall and have a small injury that made them bed bound and then their health just deteriorates from there. It's completely unavoidable when you're pushing 100.

We can't all live to 100 even with all the right decisions in place, but if you're balancing statistical decisions to get there I'd guess that regularly moving around and not sitting around for hours on end is more important than literally anything else.






I agree with this. I worked with a guy on the seaweed crew who would rake 4-5 ton a tide with no problem. Every single time we went out. Dude was like 67 years old and didn't seem like he was at all his age physically. When he isn't doing the seaweed job he goes and tops trees in Minnesota which I guess is also another physically taxing job.

Probably one of the most healthy people I've seen for his age. He doesn't seem like he's gonna go out anytime soon. Probably gonna live to be somethin like 120. He's been working like that his whole life though and doesn't want to retire anytime soon. All I would see him eat is a giant bowl of ice cream in the morning with his multi vitamin gummies In a smile in the ice cream.

1 more story of a guy... this dude i worked with who owned a little demollition crew was in his 60s and he was a freak to be alive. He never wore a mask while gutting old extremely dusty buildings for 30 years that would have had asbestos, coal soot, silica of every type. He was happy doing the hard labor in thick clouds of grey black dust and then he'd step out for a cigarette break. I think the only reason he wasnt desd was from working manual labor his whole life

I've had 2 boyfriends who were smokers. NEVER AGAIN. I realize I only dated them because I was lowering my standards. One of them wanted to quit "for me" but he never did. Turned out he was a huge alcoholic and he drank my roommates entire alcohol collection without me ever knowing.

Anyway...

Loose tobacco is different than the premade boxed cigarettes. Loose tobacco does have notes of dry fruit. It reminds me of certain black teas.

The problem with thc and other cannabis or hemp vapes is that you have no clue what is inside of the liquid.

Texas for example, has not laid out the laws about residual solvents. They have not
1. Defined what a residual solvent is
2. Defined WHICH residual solvents are and are not allowed, and
3. Defined HOW MUCH of a residual solvent is allowed in the final product.

So with this, you have TONS of disposable and non disposable vape venders using high amounts of solvents and their product has lots of residual solvents.

My throat has never hurt more than after vaping a cannabis vape.

:smoker:
fun fact: what will mostly kill you as a smoker is you body reaction to lack of oxygen making more himoglobin thus making your blood thicker which results in being more prone to a clot
that being said the no 1 predictor of mortality is genetics

My unpopular opinion: Caffeine is a powerful stimulant, comparable in effects to cocaine & meth

I have done lots of caffeine, cocaine and meth. Honestly I don't see much difference between them.

They all stimulate you and cause euphoria. Change my mind

Meth just lasts hella long, and that's the only real difference

Then you're getting shitty drugs :lol:










I do agree that caffeine is a powerful stimulant though. I think it is just so socially accepted that it is not often viewed as one. Just like alcohol is a very serious drug like heroin or benzos in terms of physical addiction but is commonly overlooked because it is legal and socially acceptable as well.

Caffeine is actually pretty powerful if it's not mixed with l-thanine like it is in tea (camelia sinensis). Most people don't feel the effects because they drink it in the morning, which just kinda wakes you up but doesn't really give you energy. If you drink too much, you don't really feel it until you're trying to go to sleep.

I've tried coke a few times, I was able to sleep after a few hours when it wore off. But with caffeine, you can have a cup at 12pm and STILL have a had time going to sleep. I've never done meth but I've heard if you only smoke a LITTLE, it will give you energy for a few hours but then you can still sleep. I've heard it's not until you smoke a LOT when you stay awake for days.

So yeah, I can see caffeine being stronger than the other 2, unless it's with tea and there's l-theanine in the mix, which does counteract the negative effects of caffeine, much like how cbd counteracts the negative effects of thc.

How so? ( The Rekt Part) And I agree it's a serious drug.

I usually dose around 100MG of caffeine powder, maybe three times a week or so. It's never been a real problem for me if it's measured correctly and works wonders for me.

I thought that abusive amounts of caffeine resulted in a bodyload comparable to Jimson weed, depending on the amount, in that there were dry heaves, migraine, and proneness to negative hallucinations. Although my blood sugar does run low, and I feel sick without eating enough.

Pairing caffeine with most anything makes me feel terrible, except a little bit of weed and occasional coffee.
