Well - it's certainly not two of the basic elements of a good meal, but neither of these are "good for you". The nail polish is potentially dangerous but, if you're eating dried nail polish off your fingernails, you probably aren't getting enough for it to be instantly toxic. Read the Nail Polish jar for cautions.

As to paper -- it's not harmful unless you eat a lot of it, but it's not helping anything.

Eating things like this falls under the category of an eating disorder. I would strongly recommend you discuss this with your doctor, or an appropriate counsellor.

This falls under a condition called PICA and may be a sign of nutritional deficit. You should discuss this with a doctor.

How dangerous is nail polish remover?

Nail polish remover really isn't too dangerous. Well..I wouldn't call it dangerous. You just have to watch how much you breathe in. Some people use it to get high and it does work... But just using it for what it is made for is perfectly fine. Just don't put the bottle up to your nose and sniff it for a long time..that is very dangerous and makes you really dizzy and blahhh haha so..take my advice and only use it to take off nail polish or to get sap off your hands..that works haha. iloveyou (:
