That’s a lot of words to say “my beliefs trump basic science”.

Peer review reproduction is a bit of a shambles tbh, so not the silver bullet people make it out to be in some fields, agreed.

So let’s leave the science aside for now and focus on what you are proposing.

“Just eat less” is about as productive as “Just don’t be sad” or “Just stop drinking alcohol”, technically correct but woefully inadequate as a practical solution for most people.

edit: before you get even more angry i’m not saying that eating less and exercising more doesn’t work, actually read the statement.

Aside from anecdotes and “trust me bro”, what knowledge have you shared so far, what solutions ?

I’m legitimately willing to listen to something you can even halfway prove.
