The Truth about Tobacco and the Benefits of Nicotine

[truth seeker]

Thanks so much for the excellent show everyone.

I had a family member who was a chain smoker and was told to stop smoking. I can't remember all the details as it was quite some time ago, but what I do remember is that her health seemed to go downhill after she stopped smoking. I've always thought that was interesting and wondered if it was really her stopping that caused her to die sooner.

I notice this again and again. It is a deeply ingrained program to think that one becomes sick because of those years of smoking. When in fact, a person got sick when they stopped smoking!

Definitely was a great show! Thanks so very much to Flashgordonv and keyhole for bringing together all that information on smoking. It's really helpful to hear about all of the manipulations that occur within smoking research so that I have something to counter the 'smoking is bad' program that still runs from time to time. Also, all the research on the benefits of smoking, just amazing. Who would have thought that commercial cigs could still have all those benefits?!

But smoking is such an easy out for the doctors.

It's definitely an easy out to blame smoking.

My grandfather died in his 50s back in the early-mid 70s, allegedly, of lung cancer, and he was an avid smoker. The doctors blamed his smoking, but there's not enough information available for me to say what he actually died from or why. From what my mother has told me, the doctors told him to give up smoking or he was going to die and he said that he would rather die. Not sure if that's a quote or just how my mother perceived the situation, but either way it seems like my mother is still carrying this weight around that her father cared more about smoking than he did about her and her sisters.

All the emotional, psychological, and physical suffering caused directly and indirectly by the anti-smoking fascists is just heart-breaking.

My dad smoked for most of his life. He ended up quitting and shortly after that he died. I never saw it written anywhere. They said it was his lungs were plugged with mucous, I say parasites. However the rest of my 7 siblings blame it on the years of smoking. Well, he never spent a day in the hospital till the last 2 weeks of his life. He was 82 when he passed on. I kinda blame it on him quitting smoking or at least attempting to quit.

However the more likely scenario was that his body was getting old mixed in with the ideas people had adopted about diet where animal fat is a bad thing for a person. His immune system just couldn't ward off the parasitic overload. This is why he tried to quit, because of miss information. He was just trying to live. He was convinced his problem was due to smoking when all the while it likely was a great benefit to him.

How strange this world is. Popular belief is the exact opposite of the reality of the situation!
