Chocolate, beer, coffee - they're all considered not so good for you, right? According to Live Science, you should think again - some of these traditional baddies in moderation actually can help you attain better health and well-being. The list of (former) pariahs includes:
- Anger: bursts of anger here and there are good for the health
- Sunlight: sunlight—even if indirect, such as on a shaded porch—is known to boost the mood.
- Maggots (for REAL!): These squirmy larvae are science's newest wonder-cure and were approved in 2003 as the Food & Drug Administration's only live medical device.
Not sure how happy I am about the maggots, but it's an interesting list nonetheless. What would you add to this line-up of bad 'uns? Let us know in the comments.
