Your risk of death is already, probably really really low, so increasing it by 17% isn't going to kill _you_. It will kill the other you out in statistics land, which could actually be me, so do a bro a favor and watch what you eat.


To clarify what I think you're saying:

It's a percent of a percent.

So if you have a 0.004% chance of dying on any given day, and you increase this by 100%, then you have a 0.008% chance of dying. Not a 100.004% chance.


100% !
