They can tell you exactly what you can and can't do to your body simply because you are bought and paid for by them while in service. They can also tell you what you can and can't eat and drink.
Thanks, I didn't realize that. It sounds pretty horrible to me, and there's no way I could live with people telling me what I could and couldn't do to and with my own body.
