This is why I envy my Grandparents generation...they didn't worry about all these silly things...they lived their lives...they ate lard sandwiches, smoked heavily drank etc. etc. without worrying about the consequences...and they lived into their 90's and 100's... As I like to say, "everyone's got to die from something", so pick your poison and enjoy life.
Alcohol, Red Wine specifically, in moderation, has several health benefits.
Sunshine helps our body's make vitamin D.
Fast food will kill you, but in moderation, is probably harmless.
Tobacco is not like ANY other legal product for sale: all use is harmful to your health. It CAUSES Lung
Mouth and throat cancer, Pancreas cancer, Stomach/intestinal cancer, Kidney cancer,Bladder cancer,Cervical cancer, and emphysema.
If you use Tobacco: it harms your health, or just kills you.
Yet some still buy it and use it. There answers to this thread say a lot about them.
