That's absurd.
The average healthy person has most things in common with all other healthy people. For example, junk food promotes poor health. Where's the exception to that? Also, the average healthy (active) person requires a certain amount of protein and calories based on height and weight. Any variation would be minor. We are more alike than we are different.

In the end its your decision on what you should or should not do with your body and how you take care of it
.... you are the one inside your body who can feel what is going on.
Everyone would benefit from learning to listen to their body. It is talking to you all the time!
You just need to pay attention, and the more you pay attention the more messages you will understand. "

Is that right? If so, let's hear some examples of it. I once talked to a woman who believed that and she said she listened to her body too. If she craved ice cream, she ate ice cream because she figured her body must need it. If she craved potato chips she ate potato chips, if she craved soda she drank soda.
Isn't that what the overweight and obese are already doing, listening to their body tell them they need more high calorie processed foods? And that makes up two thirds of the population. Boy, that's great advice....listen to your body.
