Absolutely correct in what you say!
Being an athlete since I was in grade school, my whole family, which is Scandinavian from both sides of my parent's genetic chains, have always maintained a totally fat-free diet within our household. It would have been that way anyway from my mother's nutritional understanding, but my intense involvement in athletics all my life and the required nutritional regime that was also required to maintain my athletic status, is what helped to motivate her to apply that same standard to her whole family.
As a result, nobody was ever fat in our family to say the very least. My own body-fat count has always been maintained at an ultra-low, body-fat percentile in comparison to the rest of my family through my own personal athletic necessity, yet I still maintain that physical status as an adult within my personal lifestyle today.
It is very true, inner strength both physical and emotional, run at peak levels at all times, compared to the opposite regime of nutrition value which contain doses of fried food, sugar and salt. And sports-related injuries are far less-likely to occur in the first place because of the body's ability to simply react in ways that avoid sports-related injuries from occurring in the first place.
I don't eat 3 meals a day, but instead eat about 6 or 7 times during the day from morning until evening, with organically-grown vegetables constituting at least half of my nutritional daily intake, plus large volumes of spring water daily.[/c]

Well, the UK or the USA were close guesses on your part by any margin, but like I say, Canada is also where I was educated. By contrast to American-English for example, Canadian-English which as you know originated from the UK when an early explorer sent by Queen Victoria Herself, mistakenly left a copy of the Queen's Official Dictionary on a tree stump in Newfoundland when the first boat stopped for gas and to clear Customs as the rest of the Queen's Fleet hit landfall almost simultaneously. From there, the Queen's English proliferated Canada like a virus not unlike what one might pick-up from visiting one's favourite porn site. "Queen's English" referring to not only Great Britain's language, but also English men and women.
My official as well as humble apologies to Queen Victoria's legitimate daughter for making reference to her mother's Official Title in the same continuous sentence which also contains reference to one's favourite porn site.
In terms of symbol-related Canadian-English text, the reason Canadian-English uses a hyphen in situations like "Health-related", is because this context removes all doubt as to the literary relationship the word "related" has with the word "Health", which is a point of literary detail totally ignored for the most part in the American-English language.
For example, if I used the words 'Health-related' versus 'Health related', in Canadian-English, the two examples actually mean two entirely different things.
"Health-related" means the subject at hand is strictly related to health issues.
"Health related" however, loosely infers the subject to be a person who has an intrinsic relationship with someone else whom both share similar health issues.
'Colour-related' versus 'colour related' take on a similar meaning exchange, whereby the hyphen directly connects the word 'related' to the word 'colour', AS IF they were one word which relates directly to itself.
"American-English" means, the style of the English language used in the USA.
"American English" refers to a person, not a language, such as an Englishman living in New York, yet considered by Americans as an 'alien' and remaining apart and separate in identify from a 'real American'. The single hyphen (-), is what denotes that incredible difference, but does not explain why Americans 'think' like they do.
American-English does not contain those defining points of word-use, which makes their brand of English particular problematic when it comes to establishing or deciphering contract wording in a business deal for example, or when determining Constitutional interpretation for practical application of the Law.
