If this doesn't make you quit drinking and smoking and start exercising, nothing ever will!

You can do all these things and still get a stroke from work, spouse, family or financial related stress. And don't forget our polluted environment

@McReggae & @Kingfisher - I guess you can use Pythagoras theorem: Drink as much as you want but eat boiled food and exercises 3 hours a day!


@2012 - The exercise takes care of the stress - from work, spouse, family or financial issues.

What is two alcoholic drinks???


You are supposed to take at most 2 drinks per day.


.........even one drink of a JD bottle or a famous is ok,we dont always have to agree with my doctor even after consultation

wacha stress, kaa karibu na Mungu. saa zingine kula gin na tonic for the heart!
