I don't think it is foolish to think that lifestyle choices effect health.
Then, it is entirely acceptable to place the blame on God for the myriad congenital disorders which affect every single person who has ever lived, some of them savagely disfiguring and some outright fatal. I would say it is just as acceptable to place the blame on a God who designed the human body in such a shitty way to have so many failure modes in the first place. Unless he did it on purpose and he's evil, of course.
Why should God have to design the body so people don't suffer? Why couldn't suffering involve the human experience of life? What is wrong with God allowing suffering in the world?
