Yes, but what does that mean? Does it really mean anything? What does it mean for the populaton at large? That nothing matters? That people might as well neglect their health, get sick and then take medications? And by doing so they will be as good as ever? And as good as those who are healthy because of their healthy lifestyles?
Is there any long term population study that you know of that suggests that drug taking populations do as well as non-drug taking populations? I don't think so. As a matter of fact, the Okinawa study shows that Okinawans are not only healthier, but they live longer than Americans. They don't believe in taking drugs or vitamins and we do. Good health and longevity doesn't come from taking drugs.
