If your friends is an IV heroin users or a crackhead you are obligated to intervene. You are a bad friend otherwise. If your friend is a drunk you are likewise obligated to intervene. If they have an eating disorder you should intervene as well, right?
When your friends quit smoking or face their addiction you applaud their success. You are supposed to help them and applaud them when they find their way out.
Just don't take their bacon away!
That's right. The one thing you aren't supposed to do is take their bacon away or suggest it is unhealthy for them. Never inform them of the links to virtually every chronic disease including a very strong link to Alzheimer's disease. That would be mean and unnecessary.
The facts are certain that cured meats have been shown to contribute to cancer, COPD, asthma, heart disease, diabetes Alzheimer's and other dementia disorders, but informing your bacon loving friends about it is grounds for expulsion from your circle of friends. None of the cool kids would do such a thing!
Just because it causes a condition that they now refer to as diabetes for the brain doesn't give you the right to intervene. Just leave them alone! A little Baconator now and then won't hurt right? Everything in moderation, right?
I'd rather lose a friend for trying than lose a bunch of them being quiet when I know I should speak up, especially when I know that it's just like quitting smoking - in 2 weeks you won't even miss it.
There is no room in a balanced diet for stuff with NO upside and all downside. So there I went and crossed the bacon line and even took your salami and pepperoni with it. Just say no to stuff that will certainly mean you will take another prescription in your last 5-10 years of life.
Be very well and more soon.....
