I know for a fact that illicit drugs - of which Frey admits to ingesting in copious amounts - do not undergo clinical trials in order to test for safety. God only knows what contaminants one is exposed to (or the long-term harmful effects that arise) when doing drugs for extended periods as Frey did. We do know what it did to David Crosby's liver.
"He died from pneumonia..."
And medical researchers have linked chronic boozing to pneumonia.
"Heavy drinking suppresses the immune system, providing a toehold for infections, including tuberculosis, pneumonia…"
It's no secret that many celebrities who were alcoholics or former alcoholics have succumbed to complications from pneumonia. Frey attributed his problems to abusing drugs and alcohol. I believe him while you appear to be in denial.
