"Looks aren't everything".

BS.
Turns out that being beautiful is a key indicator of good health.

"Beauty is in the eye of the beholder"
— Tan Man (@reallytanman) March 9, 2023
"Beauty is more than skin deep"
"Don't judge a book by it's cover"
Not only are these wrong...
They're outright dangerous for your health and well-being.
Let me explain: pic.twitter.com/THY0898d58 -
Physical beauty is the #1 indicator of health.

You can't "see" good health DIRECTLY...
But you can see evidence of it: pic.twitter.com/td2YS8TfwE -
Bad skin, excess body fat, lack of muscle, etc.
— Tan Man (@reallytanman) March 9, 2023
Turns out, all of those "health clues" are also visually ugly.
But when the body is healthy... pic.twitter.com/BkRpNJlOVJ -
Those things become visually beautiful--
— Tan Man (@reallytanman) March 9, 2023
- Smooth, hydrated skin
- Low excess body fat
- Muscular build
All attractive.
And there's an elephant in the room: pic.twitter.com/BnJcd8nTup -
It can't be faked.
— Tan Man (@reallytanman) March 9, 2023
This is why plastic surgery is visually repulsive.
From the outside, it might "look good".
But your instincts can't be fooled.
Deep down, you KNOW the surgery is poisoning your cells.
You KNOW the spray tan is bad for your skin.
You can feel it. pic.twitter.com/XE6Kg251bq -
Fake, skin-deep "beauty" reflects no deeper principle (i.e., health)
— Tan Man (@reallytanman) March 9, 2023
It is indeed the definition of "superficial"
Manufactured beauty will never be the same as beauty that comes from true, authentic health. pic.twitter.com/WaDeIHsZ1P -
Real beauty radiates from the inside out, and the rejection of *fake* beauty is how we end up with silly doctrines like "looks aren't everything".
— Tan Man (@reallytanman) March 9, 2023
Because in a world where looks can be faked, looks lose their meaning. pic.twitter.com/9nld88HeLG -
If plastic surgery is what we call "beautiful", it makes total sense that we live in a "superficial" world.
— Tan Man (@reallytanman) March 9, 2023
It's an empty beauty - nothing under the surface.
On the other hand... pic.twitter.com/4uGOM4tkEt -
Beauty is the reflection of health in the visual world.
— Tan Man (@reallytanman) March 9, 2023
True, authentic beauty is inherently appealing.
And we all know it... pic.twitter.com/xCdEc0nuQZ -
THAT is why the claim "looks don't matter" is extremely damaging to our concept of health and wellness as a whole.
— Tan Man (@reallytanman) March 9, 2023
Beauty is a helpful guidepost on the journey to better health.
Why? pic.twitter.com/Yynbwe5k0m -
Because we EVOLVED to be attracted to health.
— Tan Man (@reallytanman) March 9, 2023
Health is inherently beautiful, so beauty is just an easy way to measure health.
Just without the blood tests or DEXA scans. pic.twitter.com/uY8VV2afh9 -
If you remove "looks" from the equation...
— Tan Man (@reallytanman) March 9, 2023
Then all you've done is blur the concept of real health, and need to rely on data to measure it
You've made health "abstract" and inaccessible when in fact, it's quite concrete.
Think about it this way: pic.twitter.com/eIaXNT6dW2 -
The pursuit of beauty is something anyone can participate in.
— Tan Man (@reallytanman) March 9, 2023
Everyone can become more beautiful not by pursuing a shallow, superficial, plastic mimicry of beauty, but by pursuing true health.
What's more?
You'll get beauty for free. pic.twitter.com/zDFpc84jlb -
So don't let people tell you looks don't matter.
— Tan Man (@reallytanman) March 9, 2023
Use it to help you find better health.
Lead by example. Take care of yourself and your surroundings.
And prove that physical beauty is a result of higher principles.

This realization is inherently comforting.
— Tan Man (@reallytanman) March 9, 2023
Why?
It means you have to worry about one less thing... pic.twitter.com/xCzYnQXC7K -
Instead of looking for artificial and unhealthy ways to improve the looks of each body part on its own, just seek health.
— Tan Man (@reallytanman) March 9, 2023
And what's more... pic.twitter.com/CsfYRsp8xd -
Everyone can make progress toward greater health.
— Tan Man (@reallytanman) March 9, 2023
People tend to think beautiful people are "lucky", and bc humans hate randomness, we don't like valuing something so seemingly unfair.
But it's not random.
Sure, you may not have been "born with it"... pic.twitter.com/dbL3CZbN6L -
I certainly wasn't.
— Tan Man (@reallytanman) March 9, 2023
And increasingly, many people aren't.
But you have the power to change your destiny of health and beauty.
The tools are there.
And that's pretty reassuring. pic.twitter.com/1OOVX7yblk -
There is a major caveat to all this:
— Tan Man (@reallytanman) March 9, 2023
There is no such thing as PERFECT health.
There is better health and worse health, but never perfect.
Similarly, there is no such thing as perfect beauty.
There are just IDEALS we *aspire* to. pic.twitter.com/LUXIBDAhEk -
Do NOT compare yourself to perfect-- it doesn't exist in reality.
— Tan Man (@reallytanman) March 9, 2023
To not drive yourself insane with low self-esteem, you MUST realize that during this meander through materiality, "better" is all we can hope for.
And better is always possible, hard as it may be. pic.twitter.com/B0b4nuEk4k -
It won't happen overnight.

You have to buy the right food, cook it right, get a self-taught PhD in nutritional anthropology and biochemistry, etc. etc.
But this journey is getting easier... pic.twitter.com/SvRSlH7CBZ -
I got so fed up with the lack of healthy food that I quit my job to dedicate my life to corn chips.
— Tan Man (@reallytanman) March 9, 2023
Why corn chips?
Because they are both delicious and nutritious when made right.
And they make eating well much easier. pic.twitter.com/Wx0pzpGpx2 -
- Made with real corn
— Tan Man (@reallytanman) March 9, 2023
