#54 Sugar, Salt, Fat

Three things that were always rare and consumed in very very low amount due to scarcity around the world before the 19th century and only kings, royalties, and wealthy people were able to afford to have these.  As soon as these three killers become daily staple of modern developed countries, there are more deaths and high medical costs caused by these three (heart disease, cancer, diabetes) than all other diseases (polio, cholera, diphteria, pertussis, flu, etc.) combined.

Be different or be like everybody else.
