10. Beer ... about-new research has suggested that moderate beer intake can actually improve cardiovascular function.
9. Anger ...Studies show that bursts of anger here and there are good for the health, and can be an even more effective coping mechanism than becoming afraid, irritated or disgusted.

7. LSD ... small doses of LSD have been thought to help bypass the rock-bottom stage of alcoholism and prevent relapses.

And sunlight-even if indirect, such as on a shaded porch-is known to boost the mood. Extra sunlight can help office workers avoid afternoon drowsiness, a recent study found.
5. Maggots ...Placed on serious wounds, maggots mimic their "wild" lifestyle and munch on bacteria and dead tissue, stimulating healing and helping to prevent infection.
4. Marijuana ...is ironically now being hyped as a way to stave off the ultimate form of memory loss: Alzheimer's.
3. Red Wine ...those Bordeaux-guzzling French-red wine has long been known to have potent anti-cancer and artery-protecting benefits.

1. Sex ... the obvious evolutionary purposes, we can all take pleasure in the news that having sex is an easy way to reduce stress, lower cholesterol and improve circulation throughout the body.
