Medical advice of questionable (at least, in
the speaker's opinion) nature/origin, especially if it involves something undesirable, such as yucky-tasting foods/supplements, unwanted or
disagreeable adjustments in diet/lifestyle, excessively
strenuous exercise, etc.
My doctor wants me to lose weight, eat salads and vegetables, give up red meat and beer, exercise, and take a whole bunch of hard sticky pills and bitter
powders! Yeah --- RIGHT!! Like I'm gonna sweat and
toil and withstand that kinda TORTURE just
for my HEALTH?! Heck, I'd rather live with my maladies and die a few years sooner than suffer with all of his quackola... what good is living a bit longer if you're hungry and miserable all the time?!?!???
