Feels like it would be easier to list what doesn't increase your risk of some horrible illness these days.

    Fruit, vegetables, whole grains, exercise, some sunlight, some socialisation, an easy creative hobby.

    You're right, it is easier to list those things.

    Isn't fruit unhealthy except in low quantity?

    Define low quantity. Fruit contains sugars, which can be bad if you have too much, but I find it's hard to eat enough fruit to push my sugar intake above my daily limit. And fruit is generally a good source of important micronutrients like fiber, potassium, B vitamins, etc.

    Fruit contains fructose.

    Edit: Forgot veggies. Not tgat it matters much, cause they are also somewhat impervious to accusation. Best I can say is that lot of them contain sugars, but that's weak on it's own. And lead, but that's mostly roadside ones xD

    Sunlight literally birns your skin, even in small amounts.

    Dunno about whole grains.

    Exercise is literally damaging your body to rebuild it - done even slightly wrong can lead to long lasting problems.

    Socialisation can easily turn into shunning, shaming and other mentally devastating actions over which you have no control whatsoever.

    Easy creative hobbies...are a money drain. But that's not unhealthy so your point xD
