7.8 Obesity and behavioural factors
Studies in England and other countries have shown significant associations between obesity and behavioural factors including smoking, alcohol consumption and physical activity. A review of 27 cross-sectional studies, mainly in North America and Europe, found generally positive associations between alcohol intake and adiposity for men and negative associations for women.[14] In a study of 1950 men and women aged 50-79 years in the USA, cigarette smokers were found to have more central adiposity than non-smokers.[15] A study of 5282 men and women in Finland showed strong associations between obesity and five 'environmental' factors which included exercise, alcohol consumption, and smoking.

You really fall for all this propaganda don't you? Sorry I don't want to live in your paranoid little world so excuse me while I relax with a cig!! p.s. I come from a smoking family, life span of approx 96-98 on grandparents (smokers) and obesity is not a factor, we are all slim built. You can make research say anything you want if you pick the right test group. Bottom line is.......we are all gonna die....DEATH....you know that thing that happens sooner or later after your born. cinFLA....YOU ARE GOING TO DIE!! I promise!!! and I'll bet your body will do the same thing my body does when its dead.....hhhmmm dang I should have been a rocket scientist.
