 TEN A DAY OK, SMOKERS TOLD - "Dr
Ken Denson, of the Thame Thrombosis and Haemostosis Research Foundation in Oxford, has
spent the last decade studying smoking-related illnesses and concluded that the real
problem isn't the cigarettes, but the poor diet of smokers." "Denson claims most of these studies are flawed because they haven't taken diet into account. Smokers have been shown to eat less fruit and vegetables and more saturated fats than non-smokers, a combination linked to cancer and heart disease. They tend to come from lower social classes already prone to bad diet." |
