Although You were angry with me, Your anger has turned away, and You have comforted me. And we can do so much more to keep our bodies strong. It includes these simple directives: We are not to drink alcohol, tea, or coffee, and we are not to use tobacco. Prophets in our generation and in this conference have told us also to avoid harmful drugs.

Now medical science increasingly confirms the physical benefits of compliance with these teachings. The damaging effects of alcohol are so widely known, additional comment is hardly needed.

Harm inflicted by alcohol has been demonstrated, for example, by a study of the relationship between alcohol consumption among expectant mothers and the birth weight of their newborn infants.
