Bad eating harms health. There are no exceptions–and no limits: bad eating is the top factor for the top cause of death: heart disease. Yet short of death, bad eating harms in many other ways. For example, bad eating leads to nutritional deficits that can cause hearing loss. For example, mountains of scientific research show that the nutrients thiamine (vitamin B) and magnesium have a direct and huge effect on hearing. Deficits in these nutrients can–and do–destroy hearing. If you or those whom you care about eat badly and experience hearing problems–there is a good chance that the bad eating causes, or at least contributes to, the hearing problems. You or they should stop eating badly–that will probably cure the hearing problem.

Also, obesity is rampant among physicians. So is suicide. If you eat bad and seek the medical advice of a doctor, be wary of any doctor who overcomplicates your diagnosis. There is a good chance that the doctor eats bad too, so they may not be as honest with you as they should about how dangerous and damaging it is to eat bad. Stop eating badly and your health will massively improve.

The above is not medical advice. Only a licensed medical doctor can give that. And be careful about trusting medical doctors: statistically, every day in the USA, one medical doctor will murder themselves–about 400 per year. Many doctors are variously greedy, overworked, diseased, burnt out, depressed, abusive, suicidal weirdos who lie for money. Statistically, female doctors are especially deadly. So choose your doctor carefully when seeking medical advice.
