You had better try not resist Chocolate the next time you're offered one. Chocolate (most especially dark Chocolate) adds a whole lot of benefits to your health..

3. Biting Your Nails

Yeah right! Biting your nails is good for your health, Thus, introducing germs directly into your "Orfices - an opening, particularly one in the body such as a nostril or the anus". We believe that's not so bad yeah?? 

Doctors have come up with theories that this exposure to germs helps your body to build up immunities, making you less likely to fall sick. But we believe "You're on your own" on this. *Shrugs*

2. Sleeping Late 

You must have heard this before: Morning people have it better. They're more productive, and healthier blah blah blah... 

Sleeping late helps to improve your long-term memory, how your memory is being organized and also enhances your capacity to learn. 

It has to do with sleep cycles: Humans sleep in cycles and each cycle has progressively more REM sleep, which strengthens the memory. When you get up early, you're cutting off that last cycle, which deprives you of the necessary REM. 

We wouldn't advice you go late to work, but we strongly believe that you can wisdom to it.

1. Complaining 

We should always be looking at the bright side of life although it does not portray that we are happy.

Whether you complain or not has shown to yield a healthier mental outcome.

Research has shown that people who suppress their negative feelings have worse physical health than people who are unafraid to get in touch with their own Debbie Downer.

So complain about your apartment, the economy, or what passes for a "large" serving of curly fries these days, confident in the knowledge that you're doing it for your own good.

The above list of bad habits should me able to metamorphosed into good ones.
