">55 mcg/day [B12] was associated with a 98% greater risk" Wow, that is quite a staggering increase! Luckily it was men who smoke; "As for never-smokers, the paper states they “were excluded from the smoking-stratified analysis because of the low number of participants with incident lung cancer in that group.”

It's interesting how woman weren't affected, but I am all too aware of the link between smoking and lung cancer as the two go hand in hand. My father died of lung cancer and we didn't part on the best of terms as he had a bad cough for a over a decade before being diagnosed, I lacked sympathy as it was virtually a given. Seeing patients needing to go outside to smoke (often with an IV attached) as they are dying is something I'll never get my head. I would name it the Darwin ward, but that is probably insensitive...

It makes me angry that medics won't even condon, let along recommend smokers switch to vaping due to politics. They could save 100,000's of lives per year in the US alone (480k smokers die per year).
