Default Setup for DADGAD + Standard Tuning

If I play both DADGAD and standard tuning on a particular guitar 50/50, which would be the best setup for the "health" of the guitar? (Cedar top) I know alot of you will reply to buy another guitar, but that's not really an option right now.

Light Strings setup for DADGAD
Light Strings setup for standard
DADGAD Strings setup for DADGAD (13-17-24-32-42-56)
DADGAD Strings setup for standard (13-17-24-32-42-56)

Thanks in advance.

Edit:
I think alot of people are misunderstanding my question. I'm not asking what kind of strings to put on this particular guitar.
I'm asking what kind of strings to put on the guitar AND if the guitar should be setup in standard or DADGAD with the recommended strings. Setup as in taking the guitar into the shop for truss rod adjustment, intonation, and possible saddle adjustments.
