Dark chocolate, 1 oz, per day, is good for you, as is 8 oz. of red wine.
Potatoes aren't the best vegetable in the world for you.
Sorry about the smoking and exercise, they're bad and good, respectively.

Chocolate, smoking and alcohol have pleasant as well as harmful side-effects so the trick is to find healthy things which also make you feel good.
Good quality chocolate in small quantities is fine. I keep a bar of Green & Blacks in my desk at work... :-)
Nicotine and alcohol are highly addictive. Nicotine can temporarily hide stress and alcohol helps us release emotions and inhibitions (sometimes in a good way sometimes in a bad way).
The healthy alternatives are exercise and laughter. There is a kind of exercise for everyone. I hated sport at school but love dancing now. The art is to find one that you like - it doesn't have to be jogging in the rain... As for laughter that's easier than ever with all the comedy clubs and great TV shows on DVD...

Becuase the bodies biochemistry is not designed to function off of chocolate, smoking, and alchohol. It is a very sensitive system that reacts to toxins in the body. I think you know why though, so I don't even know why I am answering.

Why can't we only go in to work when we feel like it? why are things the way they are?
Hon, thats just the way life is....... but a tinsy bit of alcohol (wine) is actually gud for you & choc gives u energy boost. Smoking just darkens ur lungs & gives you permanent cough!

actually..chocolate contains anti-oxidants..smoking makes you lose weight..and alcohol loosens your blood vessels. Unfortunately, the bad things in them out weigh the good..
