Friend of mine had a stroke - 46

The thing that stops me smoking is the health side now i just need to stop eating crap

I have just about given up the cigs but the beer is the thing now - Over the weekend I have drunk my way through 48 500ml cans - That's 24 liters of beer since Friday - It has to stop.....

yep but you stop that.. then its shit air quality in east london.. so what do you do then? there´s always something trying to kill you.

lol - Sad but true....

beer is healthy:

"Despite beer’s bad reputation, it actually has a number of natural antioxidants and vitamins that can help prevent heart disease and even rebuild muscle. It also has one of the highest energy contents of any food or drink. Of course, this means you need to set limits – one beer gets you going, four makes you fat.

If you’re worried about dehydration, keep in mind that beer is 93 percent water. Also, according to a Spanish study, beer may actually provide better hydration than H2O alone when you’re sweating it out under the sun.

So with all of this in mind, which kind of beer should you reach for? Calorie-wise, you may be tempted to grab a light lager, but for health benefits, a dark beer is the better choice.

Dark beers tend to have the most antioxidants, which help reverse cellular damage that occurs naturally in the body. A recent study published in the Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture has also found that dark beer has higher iron content compared to lighter beers. Remember, iron is an essential mineral that our bodies need. Iron is a part of all cells and does many jobs including carrying oxygen from our lungs throughout the rest of our bodies.

Another good choice is microbrews, which are healthier than mass-produced cans, because they have more hops. Hops contain polyphenols, which help lower cholesterol, fight cancer and kill viruses.

Just remember the golden rule: Everything in moderation. You don’t want to embarrass yourself in front of your friends by drinking too much, and you certainly don’t want to put yourself at risk for any long-term health effects like liver problems, kidney diseases and heart disease."

stress kills.

At the end of the day, it's all a crap shoot. There are people that smoke for 80 years and live to be 100, and there are people who eat healthy, go to the gym every day and die suddenly.

I remember when I was like 18 and worked out, there was this old guy we called Captain America in the gym always. He was something like 74 or so and cut as fuck. He died just out of nowhere.

of course that doesn't mean that living healthy doesn't help... it is just no guarantee

Here's the thing - lets say you smoke, and you get cancer. People get cancer without smoking too... everything kills you nowadays.

genetics and environment will fuck you every time. Moderation is key.

I knew this 50 year old Italian guy. He was big & ripped & looked 30. One day he just turned pale & collapsed. Heart attack. He lived but still

Eat right, get plenty of rest and exercise; die anyway.



You need to find a better quality beer. I'd venture to say that there is no way you could drink that much of a good beer.

I disagree...
