Of course nutrition and lifestyle plays a huge role in health but when big macs, frozen burgers, turkey twizzlers, chicken nuggets, fizzy drinks etc cost more than proper food it's no wonder everyone's fat as f8ck. And until they make sitting on your arse and being thick as shit more fun than going for a 5 mile run 3 times a week nobody will exercise.

In the UK we are told about eating '5 portions a day' not smoking, the importance of exercise, how masturbation will turn you blind etc but we still do it.
So what do you do?
You begin sterilising people with an IQ of less than 100 and tracky bottoms tucked in socks! easy.


It's dead right that some doctors make bad decisions and it ends up in people dying but I'm sure if you could work out how many people would be dead with zero medical intervention the greater good argument would prevail.

And you said

"Make sense to me to look to those who are healthy for clues on health."

My health proffesion training so far has been to understand how things work when they're right then go into what happens when they go wrong. I'm sure medical training is much the same.

The medical establishment does a fine job of propping up a social system that's going/gone to shit! It's not the doctors fault as such it's the capitalist pig societies we live in.

See you in the diabetic amputee ward!
