Is this Monty slander? Did Patton make this meme?

I’m stunned - stunned - that a sample size of 2 would produce inconsistent data.

Let’s cut it down to a sample size of 1

Anyone know of people that have been eating bacon and egg breakfasts for everyday for their entire life and they’re not horridly overweight and actually healthy?
Turns out their genome codes for a set of enzymes that lets them do that. Probably the same thing here, Churchill had a genome that let him smoke and drink as much as he wanted and Montgomery had genomes that let him be fit and sharp and whatever. In the end, a lot of health advice is overly generalized as each of our genomes are so different that any one piece of advice might not apply.

“Curing disease”? Pssshh.

Generally, it’s less that the advice doesn’t apply, so much as the weighting of the advice differs. Perpetual Bacon-Breakfast may be more tolerable for certain genetic combinations, but health would still generally improve if they set that aside. It’s just that the improvement for some is marginal, and the improvement for others is life-changing.

The doctor will tell you that your lifestyle is bad, your trainer that you are not training enough, your boss that you don’t work enough.
And the liquor store owner will tell you: excellent choice! And the chef of the local kebab shop will tell you: As-salamu alaykum brother, same as always?
Being rich will make you beat the odds of an early grave.
