Alongside all of these honest doctors and fitness coaches who espouse metabolic syndrome as the biggest health crisis of the 21st century there is a broad group of scammers and conmen who use the well backed science and literature to seed ground to push supplements and other crap.
They seem to wrap the very basic medical truth of being overweight and inactive is horrific for your health in an onion of pseudoscience bullshit, so you buy the next best product high in "antioxidants" and "polyphenols" The actual science is unimaginably boring. Do not be overweight on the BMI scale and do some moderate exercise for around 2 hours every week. This will drastically improve the health 1000x more than say the insane stuff that Brian Johnson is touting. I hate modern fitness influencers and health wellness people in general. My head near about exploded when I saw a Tiktok from Jeff Nippard claiming that eggs increase your testosterone on a study with a sample size of FIVE PEOPLE. |

Don't be depressed is also excellent advice for people with depression: if they can manage that, it improves their mood tremendously. Not catching colds also greatly reduces your chances of cold-like symptoms.
By which I mean, what you're saying is a truism, not medical advice. Keeping your BMI under control is a natural no-effort thing for some people, and a grueling lifelong struggle for others. Telling fat people to stop being fat is not "advice", it is exactly as helpful as telling sick people to stop being sick.
