Obsessing Over Our Health Is Not Healthy
But there will always be someone selling you their "perfect" lifestyle that can guarantee health.
We’re told that prioritizing health is always a good thing. That tracking, measuring, optimizing — constantly striving to be better — is the path to a longer, happier life.
And in a culture that not only glorifies wellness, but now praises “clean eating” and “biohacking,” it’s natural to assume that the more we focus on health, the healthier we’ll become.
What we often can’t see is that obsessing over health — whether through rigid food rules, excessive exercise, or constant self-monitoring — can have serious mental, emotional, and even physical consequences.
