From my "little" sister it can be the best kind.
From those who mean well it can be a verbal hand grenade. Don't bother jumping on it.
If preceded by "what you need to do is..." feel free to push the eject button.
If inferentially domain specific, say, given by someone who heads to the local health club rides the elevator/escalator for a couple of floors and then heads to the stair master - this is a clear case of text book application vs application outside the text book.
If given by a medical professional, consider that in the 60's the medical profession lampooned mother's milk as useless, and in that same decade, tonsils were considered useless tissue and removed.
Now we know that tonsils removed increase throat cancer risk and that mother's milk/breast feeding has multiple necessary nutrients (those who were breast fed avoid certain risks associated with disease) and mothers who breast feed reduce the risk of breast cancer.
What you need to do is...and I am not a doctor...nor am I a medical professional of any kind...ask my little sister, she knows, she takes the stairs.

your little brother absolutely HATES unsolicited advice. found that out after we got married.
That is my fault entirely. I spent a large part of my former existence doling it out like starving ice cream salesman on lower buckeye road.
Well intended. But as the saying goes the road to Eloy is paved with good intentions.
Good to hear from you!
Unsolicited advice... please relay this info. to my husband...
