Why take handfuls of pills and capsules day and night and then light up a cigarette? Why bother with an 18 oz diet soda when you're downing a double bacon cheeseburger with super-salted fries?

Nothing like this is going to help you when you're seriously overweight, have a total aversion to exercise, and prefer to take Chinese herbs and mega-vitamins in lieu of the medications your doctor prescribed to you for high blood pressure.

Unless you're a malnourished alcoholic, most people gain next to nothing (or even less) from taking a daily multi-vitamin or drinking herbal teas. Sure, it makes you feel like you're counteracting your unhealthy lifestyle, and maybe that peace of mind is worth a little something.

But in the end, don't expect to reap any real health benefits or live a day longer than you would have.
