Good amount of pop-sci-esque half-truths; includes the classic "uhhh acshually BMI isn't accurate because you could be obese if you're a huge bodybuilder." Yeah, like that applies to most of us.

Anyway, as someone that has spent a good amount of time reading books, listening to podcasts, and perusing the odd paper, you're not gonna learn much with this.

You've reached the end.
