9.Alcohol
U.S. Dietary Guidelines say women can have one drink per day and men can have two. (A drink is a 12-ounce beer, a 5-ounce glass of wine, or a shot of liquor.) But that’s a daily limit — not an average — so days without alcohol don’t cancel out extra-drinking days. Too much can lead to cancer, high blood pressure, injuries, alcohol abuse, and many other problems.
10.Sleep
Adults usually need 7 or more hours a night. But it’s not just about time. The quality of your sleep matters, too. Your sleep needs and patterns will also naturally change as you age. Practice good sleep habits, like going to bed and getting up at the same time, and exercise regularly. You’re probably getting enough if you’re productive and happy during the day — without caffeine — and you don’t get sleepy while driving.
