Why can't people eat a healthy diet?

[mrshooiser]

Its not hard to do. I always make food at home, homemade desserts, and we always have fruit. And take our vitamins. And try to stay active.

[madhatters4]

there's a lot of reasons

- economic/affordability

- time

- access

- laziness

plenty of reasons. but i think it's a good sign that the younger generation seems to be more concerned with a healthier lifestyle

[madhatters4]

Thanks for MHO!

You need regulation of the food industry and nutritional education of the people, both of which doesn't exist much in the United States. It's that great free market.

Well.. I eat whatever I want but in a medium portions then I never drink and I am always active.. so I am very healthy

[Maybe_Maybe_not]

No no no, that's a terrible idea... you should drink several times a day, otherwise you're going to die !

[ElenaSeluna]

@Maybe_Maybe_not I meant alcohol 😄

I am sorry I didn’t specify drinking what

[Maybe_Maybe_not]

Now that's a weird situation to apologize for 😂

[ElenaSeluna]

It can be expensive for some people. People are also busy and some probably don't even care.

[AI Opinion]

Many people struggle with a healthy diet for reasons that go beyond willpower.

Busy schedules push them toward convenience food, stress drives emotional eating, and ultra-processed foods are engineered to be irresistible. Money, lack of cooking skills, food deserts, cultural habits, and marketing all play a role.

You already cook at home and stay active, which is a powerful foundation most people simply never build 🥗💪

Unless we have food that will make me immortal, I would never put health over taste. I want to experience life enjoying it not making it worse to max life expectancy that's not guaranteed.
It's purely illogical to me. If someone's happy with salad though and think it tastes good then they should do that, since that's what they enjoy, but I don't.

It’s actually hard to find healthy food in the USA, so much of it is processed and treated with chemicals, a lot of food here is banned in other countries, you think you’re eating healthy food when you’re probably not, that’s why there is so much obesity here but not other countries

Actually, ever since the doctors put my wife and I on special diets (very different ones, actually), our total food bill has gone down. Prep time has gone up. If only I could make minimum wage to cook my own lunch.

Lack of good social contacts, motivation and poverty. Because of traumatas some self-harm with high-sugar eating. Sugar is also a drug.

[Agape93]

Some people can't afford it, and some people live in food deserts where decent options simply don't exist anymore.

[exitseven]

I eat a healthy diet but I also drank a pepsi every day and ate a lot of candy. I just gave up both things ans cut most of the sugar out of my diet.

[FunkyMonkee]

Have you SEEN the shit that passes for food, these days?

[Jeff51]

To much crap food around.

[In_Trance]

Because most people are lazy

[Mike_Hum]

People are lazy.
