I found this written in an old journal of mine: " We need to stop thinking of the unwanted reactions we have to pharmaceuticals as 'side effects'. If a drug/medicine/vaccine interacts with our physiology in predictable ways we need to describe those events whether desirable or not as 'effects'. This changes our thinking and opens to our minds the possibility that from a pharmaceutical manufacturer's perspectiveunwanted effects (for the consumer) are very desirable effects for the executives wanting to sell moreproducts."

FDA to finalize ban on menthol cigarettes in coming months

Would a lack of menthol negatively impact the health of smokers, perhaps increase "COVID-like" symptoms? Idk. However, it seems the FDA doesn't like anything remotely good for us.

It's getting to the point that instead of fighting the FDA on all the bad things they are doing it would just be better to get rid of it. Would the states be able to make laws and regulations for their own states and skip the "federal"?

Dubs. I think they actually got a bad rap. During COVID there was significant scuttlebutt that suggested smokers were less likely to get 'rona. Seemed true at the place I was working.

I take it your eye is better?!

I don't know how easy it would be to link the story, but I saw a paper version of this week's Epoch Times today. There was a story, I think by the founder of Falun Gong, saying that 400 million Chinese are dead, apparently from "COVID" and that the virus targets CCP. I am not Buddhist, but I think he was saying this is due to "karma". I actually see something similar happening in the US. People who took the "jabs" with gusto, like religious adherents and ranted online about how great they are and then criticized those reluctant to take them often end up dead. As a Christian I call this "the law of sowing and reaping" and/or a natural consequence of "living by the sword". You might know how Jesus rebuked Peter when he cut of the servant of the high priest's ear. "Those who live by the sword, die by the sword." (pic related)

Those who live (make a living?) by the vaccine genocide, maybe die by it?

>something to do with nicotine and AC receptors?

ACE receptors? Yes, this is basically what I think too.

>>19474241

The Epoch Times requires an e-mail to be entered before you can read, as far as I know.

>>19474244

I agree. Cigarettes in general and menthol is an added help against 'rona, I think.

>>19474258

>Nicotine is an ACE2 inhibitor, which blocks that access point to the virus.

Maybe this is why we had decades of attacks on cigarettes.

Would nicotine gum have similar benefits?

>>19474267

If that is true there are A LOT of Christian Jews in America.

>>19474278

Pipe smokers should have been okay then. You may have a good point there because I don't recall anyone saying much about tobacco and cancer before cigarettes, correct? Could it also be related to pesticides in commercial tobacco? What about snuff/chew users?

>>19474185

I think that is unnecessary, though it seems that as a Christian having knowledge of Torah and the Old Testament is a big blessing. If you believe in Jesus as Messiah, why would you need to add Judaism?

>>19474293

I agree. Perhaps the pesticides make you vulnerable.

>>19474300

Health insurance is not "true" insurance. Auto coverage is.

If we had true health "insurance" you would get money if something went bad with your health that shouldn't and you could pay whomever you wanted to help you.

>>19474316

Synthetic vitamin E oil was blamed as I recall. It provided and excuse to eliminate exposures to nicotine perhaps.

>>19474316

Yes. Very spoopy.

>>19474316

Funny. Just found a recent article about it.

Possibly but what makes me doubt that is that they immediately tried to stop vape products. If they wanted to spread COVID with vape wouldn't it have been promoted like crazy?

The lung disease seems to have also been in people who showed signs of THC exposure, too.

Could the combo of vape, synthetic vitamin E and THC (from any source/cannabis) be a problem?

>>19474351

>Are caused by a parasitic infection

I agree. I think chemicals weaken you. For example aluminum exposure is used to generate auto-immune disease in lab animals. Turns out aluminum changes bacteria and allows them to get inside cells.

>>19474388

I think they wanted to make young people vulnerable, if possible. As I recall a lot of teens preferred vaping to cigarettes.
