That's not really a good reason to neglect statistics and probabilities/studies/findings.
If you know that crossing a highway will make it likely for you to get killed, then you better not cross that highway.
If you know that smoking is detrimental to your health, you better not smoke etc.
I am sorry that your mother died, but you should not justify being reckless with your life with the death of a loved one. I know it is hard to think rationally when emotion is involved, but the point is statistics/studies etc. give you good directions for your life: https://www.inc.com/dana-severson/after-studying-lives-of-72... A study/finding is not meant to be absolute/100%, it is just "good advice" for you to follow that will most likely help to keep good health. So don't neglect a finding/study just b/c a small percentage had "bad luck". |

i haven't said that you should snore cocaine all day and die. i've just said that it doesn't make sense to optimise every bit.
drink water, do some sports, visit your doctor etc. that will let you have plenty of time, but apply the pareto principle there or like I said, you'll end up wasting your whole life trying to have some edge over other people and such thing do not exist, as you'll die no matter what do you do.
and it would be such a waste to live forever.
