The third most common cause of death in the United States, at least before COVID was a thing, is "accidental self-inflicted injury."

Heart Disease and Cancer, most in old age, are the top two.

Making micro adjustments to your diet just doesn't stand a chance at making a meaningful difference.

I'd really like to see that category broken down by sobriety. The overwhelming majority of my accidental self-inflicted injuries have happened when I was drinking. Broken shoulder (let's have sex on the arm of this chair... oops, it has wheels), broken kneecap (running upstairs), partially severed thumb (sure, I'll just open this plastic case with a knife!)...

The suggestion you're replying to was basically "cut out a ton of extra sugar" which would quite likely have an impact on heart disease.
