Every day weāre bombarded by health advice myths, wellness trends, influencers, and āmiracleā products.
But beneath the flashy packaging and viral hype, most modern health advice is unscientific, profit-driven noise.
True health isnāt sold ā itās earned.
Through discipline. Through awareness. Through understanding truth.
Let me show you why so much of what you’re told is wrong ā and what to focus on instead.
š Health Is Not Found in a Bottle
The wellness industry is flooded with powders, pills, devices, and potions promising quick fixes. But hereās the uncomfortable truth:
They prey on your confusion. They thrive on your fear. But true health is not a transaction ā it’s a transformation.
Most āhealth adviceā is a sales pitch in disguise. One of the most damaging health advice myths is the idea that taking a pill will make you healthy, regardless of lifestyle.
You donāt need an overpriced powder or the latest wearable. Ā Or the high priced infusion. Health is not something you buy ā itās something you build. Slowly. Consistently.
If itās being marketed to you, chances are you donāt need it.ā – Dr. Bomi Joseph
š§ The 3 Health Advice That Keep People Unhealthy
Health Advice Myth #1: You Need Supplements to Be Healthy
What exactly are you deficient in? Most people have no idea. Yet they take supplements blindly, thinking “more must be better.”
This is dangerous thinking. The human body doesnāt work on a straight-line āmore is betterā model ā it follows the bell curve.
Too little is harmful. Too much is harmful. Thereās an optimal zone for everything.
And most people are already at or near optimal. Adding more ā especially synthetic or low-quality supplements ā often causes more harm than good.
In 2016, Bloomberg exposed that major U.S. retailers were selling Aloe Vera products containing no actual Aloe Vera ā just cheap synthetic fillers.
Hereās the hard truth:
- 90% of the money you spend on supplements in the U.S. goes to marketing and distribution.
- Only 6ā10% goes to manufacturing.
- That means most supplements are cheap Chinese synthetics wrapped in shiny packaging.
- And they lack the bioactivity ā the actual healing power ā your body needs.
High-quality, plant-based supplements are available ā but theyāre not sold in big box stores. Theyāre tested, studied, and sold in countries that demand quality: Japan, Germany, Italy, and the Gulf states.
In short: if you donāt know your deficiency, the bioactivity, and the source ā youāre gambling with your health.
Health Advice Myth #2: Exercise Alone Makes You Healthy
Exercise is important ā but it’s not the only thing.
After studying human health scores for over 40 years, I’ve seen that people move through three zones: Healthy, Average, and Poor.
- When you’re in the Healthy zone, movement matters most. But it should be high repetition, gradual intensity, and tissue-supportive.
- When you’re in the Poor zone, nutrition dominates. You must build a strong foundation before engaging in impact-based movement.
Too many people skip this. They dive into exercise without rebuilding tissue strength. The result? Joint damage, inflammation, and burnout.
Movement is vital ā but only when your body is ready.
Health is physical, mental, and emotional. You need all three working in harmony.
Health Advice Myth #3: Genetics Determine Your Fate
Your genes are the blueprint youāre born with. Thats genetics. But thatās only half the story.
From the moment of conception, your environment ā and your choices ā begin shaping your biology. Thatās epigenetics.
We live in an era of rapid change. The rate of epigenetic influence is accelerating ā for better or worse.
In the past, people rarely moved and environments were stable. Today, weāre bombarded with new chemicals, foods, stresses, and pollutants.
Your lifestyle, not your DNA, is the most powerful factor in your health. Because your lifestyle affects your DNA.
āļø The Truth Most People Ignore
Health is measurable.
My Deep HealthĀ® Device uses 16 sensors to measure subtle bio-signals ā giving you a real, objective health score, not vague feedback.
It scans tissues, fluids, and responses using pressure, acoustic, ultrasonic and electrical waves.
This technology is licensed by major insurance and pharmaceutical companies and is currently measuring the health of 180 million people in Asia.
Health is simple ā but not easy.
It takes clarity, consistency, and self-respect. It cannot be outsourced.
Health is joyful.
Itās not about restriction. Itās about energy, clarity, and movement. I enjoy the process. At 67, I still measure like I did at 45.
Just this morning, I trained Kyokushin karate at 5:15 AM with fighters in their 20s and 40s ā and I love every minute of it.
