Most fitness people and bodybuilders eat lots of crap, just look at how protein powder is made, for instance. It's garbage. Also, there is drug use, other silly supplement use, and other aspects to the fitness / bodybuilding lifestyle that are far from beneficial to health.
VERY few people in the western world are consuming enough natural foods, most of what we eat is processed foods (remember that cooking is also a form of processing, and it's not a very good one). And people wonder why get so much cancer and heart disease, why we're fat, and why diabetes has absolutely exploded...
What the fitness folks don't do, though, is sit on their assess. That's a good thing, but it's no more than what we were made to do from the beginning.
