Genetics are so weird to me

Like my aunt has drank alcohol like a fish and smoked like a chimney, and is now in her 70’s still drinking and smoking away

There is something in her genetics protecting her against cancer (she’s only had some minor skin cancer from sun tanning through the 70’s and 80’s with only “tanning lotion”) and I don’t know what those genes are

But I am not as big of a believer when it comes to genetics and being fat or fit. IMO that is 80 or 90% your choices, and the rest genetics

But protection from cancer and illnesses, that seems to be like majority genetics, secondary is life choices

My grandma is 98 this year. Smoked her whole life. Genetics are a crazy thing when it comes to some things.

im pretty fit, and healthy and so i have been judgemental against people who are not.

But i saw a thing that said that some people burn calories more than others, and they gave an example like, some when they sit naturally sit, others shake their legs etc tap their feet, and that actually burns calories, those people are more prone to be thinner.

And while watching I realized that the whole time my 2 feet were moving like a hummingbird wings as I was watching this stupid thing on tv for the last hr at 11pm, and thought well shit i guess I am genetically lucky.

Still a conservative though.
