Studies, studies and more studies. We need them. Even things that seem common sense need to be repeated over and over for them to sink into the greater majority of people's knowledge base.

How many decades did it take from the first study showing the dangers of smoking until people started to finally get it and put some regulations on tobacco use?

"nicotine can rev up brain cells that normally signal people to stop eating when they are full"

It also apparently revs up brain cells that signal people to thoughtlessly light up stinky cigarettes in public places.

Cigarettes, coffee - I like my brain cells revving. Longevity is often over-rated.

Just eat less. Not too hard to do I would think.

When monkeys quit, they get fat too. Shows how close we are to them.
