True. Trans fats are really good for you. So is smoking--the more per day the better. Chain smoking is ideal. As for alcohol, at least 5 litres per day is the absolute minimum you should be drinking--and the higher the alcohol content the better. Methylated spirits should be your drink of choice--d...
