Things You Think Are Bad But Are Good For You
1. Consistently Consuming Coffee
It’s Truly Good For You Because Coffee is actually rich of antioxidants, and studies have shown that coffee gives many health benefits. It also won’t lead you to have a heart attack or prevent you from growing tall enough to reach the top shelf at the grocery store.
2. Sleeping in
It’s Beneficial Your metabolism may stay at a healthy level if you wake up when your circadian rhythms urge you to rather than when your alarm goes off. We’re a nation of undersleepers, and even people who appear to be oversleeping can actually be obtaining the recommended amount of sleep for their individual needs.
3. Complaining
It’s Beneficial For You Because Positivity Doesn’t Ensure Happiness. Positivity does not guarantee happiness. Instead, it has been demonstrated that being realistic about your life, including both the positive and negative sides of it, leads to a healthier overall mental outcome.
4. Biting Nails
Because it introduces germs directly into your orifices, it’s actually beneficial for you. But it’s not always a bad thing. According to some medical professionals, this small-scale exposure to bacteria helps you develop your immune system, decreasing your long-term risk of illness. But you’re on your own with that clicking-biting sound. Shudder.
5. Chewing Gum
It’s Actually Beneficial for You Since Gum Concentration. A recent study of students at St. Louis University found that those who were given gum to chew outperformed their gum-free peers on a battery of cognitive tests. This advantage lasted only until the gum had made its way to everyone’s chair’s underside. Gum chewing has been shown to be a better study and test-taking aid than caffeine.
