A book against exercise and vegetables
-
People believe hard exercise and vegetables will make them healthier. Not only is this wrong, it's often harmful.
There should be a clear resource somewhere, probably a book, that helps people find out about this.
I can't really tell someone "you're unhealthy because you run so much, a study found blah blah blah" - people never accept things like that. But if it was in the form of a book, a person can read and mentally digest at his own pace, and maybe be convinced. So I could say to him "you're unhealthy because you run so much, there's a book all about it you can go read"
How many people know that 1/3 of female college athletes have osteoperosis?
How many know that male endurance athletes have very lowered testosterone?
How many people know that their mysterious digestion problems would cease if they stopped with the vegetable smoothies?

@insufferable
people will not accept anything in a book either. You cannot convince someone of something they have convinced themselves to believe.
I know because I was one of the worst of them.
