My perception (which I would like to correct) is that such trends are mostly isolated to the US and not prevalent in Europe. Ex. over-prescribing based on some recent finding, new diet, new exercise trend, new [insert habit/lifestyle]. Is that the case?

All these behaviors seem to me to be tied with the height we assign to science to tell us how to live our lives.
