chemicals

Okay, I admit it.  I've never considered myself to be a smoker, but occasionally, I used to smoke to relieve stress or just to feel the sensation in my lungs.  I reasoned that the occasional puff wasn't enough to do much harm and that my lungs would clean themselves after I finished my binge.

Everything changed for me when I looked at a certain cigarette pack.  (This is what happens when you live outside the U.S.) 

I was at the hospital today with my wife and daughter for her final check up before we could take her home. The doctor went through the list of things we should do, on that list (to my pleasant surprise) was to give her vitamin D drops for her immune system, something I do for myself. Also on that list (to my chagrin) was to give her fluoride drops.  This is something I'm against, but I didn't give it away. I let him know that we have fluoride in the water in my town, so we don't need drops.
