Absolutely true. One can be in excellent health overall and still have these issues. It is so important to try to manage them. It really can be done in steady baby steps and is so worthwhile to do so. Stress is another factor that can completely mess you up and affect you physiologically. My former profession basically employed and paid me to endure constant stress. My doctor would always tell me to just quit - but I couldn't - daily mega vitamins and music got me through ;-) "I'm glad that Joni has good genes from both sides and also glad to see her looking so healthy in the latest pictures we've seen of her. However, it's an important distinction to note that she's healthy IN SPITE OF her smoking and not BECAUSE OF it." Yes she is. There is also a whole body of research that says being involved in creative pursuits, especially music, is a miraculaous health tonic.
