Stress causes heart attacks too. Stop worrying about him, you'll give yourself another one.

Hes living on a thin line! Some people can just abuse their bodies while others in perfect health & fitness have strokes! I think it is luck and genetics or lack thereof! My father drank and smoked everyday as long as I can remember and he lived to be seventy six. He did have three heart attacks and emphezema. I hated to see him go but he was smoking on oxygen and his body just gave out! God rest his soul! Good luck to you though!!

Obesity is not due solely to what people eat. If fat people's bodies processed food the way skinny people's bodies do, they would have never gotten fat in the first place. I am not talking about "metabolism". I am talking about hyperinsulinemia - the precursor condition for diabetes type 2, hypoglycemia, in many cases obesity, and other "conditions".
For basic information on hypoglycemia, check out www.hufa.org. For basic information on hyperinsulinemia, check out www.mayoclinic.com and search for hyperinsulinemia.

It is Luck all right.....Bad Luck!!! I would not worry what someone else is doing or not doing. You need to concentrate on your own health and not make excuses.

Good question my friend. We'll never know.
I think god got distracted when he made him. He gave him some super strong liver and crap when he wasn't looking.
