Explanation:

Concordo com você, Andre. Dizer que a frase é saudável soa bem estranho.

Talvez ela inspire essa sensação nas pessoas. Essa seria a interpretação que faço, pelo menos.
Veja se é uma possibilidade válida no seu contexto.

Boa sorte com a tradução!

Explanation:
É porque sou bilíngue há 50 anos, minha língua mãe é inglês. Portanto estou seguro de que é assim que melhor se traduz a expressão.
