I think you have it wrong. As a health psychologist (now out of active
service) and dietitian my careful calculations show that 100% of all
illnesses on earth are diet-related: if there were no diets, there would be
no illnesses. Paradoxically, other calculations show that 0% of all
illnesses on earth are diet-related: they can be shown to be ultimately
caused by " the ensemble of social relations."
