Yeah. So what. There are tons of good solid studies and epidemiologic data that shows the absolute correlation between smoking and increased risk of lung cancer, throat cancer, heart disease and emphysema. The numbers are huge, they can correct for diet, exercise, cholesterol, occupation etc etc etc.
Then there is the simple clinical evidence that ANY doctor sees. The vast majority lung cancer patients are smokers. Ditto emphysema patients. Much higher risk of heart disease in same. WE SEE IT EVERY DAY.
Still I believe it's ultimately your choice.
