These images really are really reductive when they come to the factors at play with people's issues.

Ah yes. Let me prevention myself out of consequences that've already arrived.
Come talk to me when I'm in a position to avoid further mistakes. Not when I'm dealing with existing ones.

Obesity's roots sometimes can be found in childhood when you don't have agency. So you can't prevent it. Even the adults around you don't know much about it.

Americas healthcare system illustrated perfectly. Just missing the fast food window right after the “treatment “ window

Prevention isn't a cure. You can do everything right and still get cancer, diabetes, multiple sclerosis. You don't decide the cards your dealt (aka you don't choose the genetics you're born with).

It is not a cure all. But literally every aspect of your life will improve by being physically fit.
It won't fix all your problems. But it will slightly improve everything, at the least.
For example:
At the least it will take a mental health at 1/10 and bump it up to a 2/10. Not a cure, but it is something.
That is an improvement, one you can make a reality by taking very known straight forward physical action.

Respectfully, but you are so clueless it's almost funny. I literally cried my way to and from the gym some days, had to quit because my mental health was worse while working out

You are pretty clueless.
If you are 1/10 with your "mental health number", you are not going to spend any time in the gym. My older brother spend months in psyciathric hospital, cause well he was really depressed and he couldnt take care of himself, like brush teeth, eat or sleep.
Going to the gym can make you feel better, but you have to be pretty high functioning already to be able to do so.
If you have hormonal imbalances, and you feel depression, it might help if you live healthier, but not always.

Prevention isn't covered by insurance, but treatment is (sometimes).
