The Ugly Truth About Resveratrol and Other Phytonutrients

By / / Health and Fitness / 7 minutes of reading

TC Luoma, the co-founder of the fitness- and bodybuilding online-magazine T-Nation, recently posted yet another article shilling for dangerous and useless supplements. This time he hyped one of their Biotest supplements that is based on Resveratrol, a polyphenol.While TC has posted some funny and almost “useful” information throughout the years, it’s hard to tell if he’s simply ignorant and trapped in the pseudo-science of the inverted fake “nutrition science” and that of the bro-science […]

Intermittent Fasting – Quick Guide and FAQ

By / / Body Transformation / Bodybuilding, Diet and Nutrition, Health and Fitness / 14 minutes of reading

The pharmaceutical shill-website Healthline just posted a “beginners guide” to Intermittent Fasting, and it’s not too bad considering their previous abysmal and mostly pseudo-scientific nonsensical content. So, lets break it down. First off, Intermittent fasting (IF) is an eating pattern that cycles between periods of fasting and eating. This could be, for example, a daily ‘feeding window’ of 6 to 8 hours, leaving 16 to 18 hours a day for a ‘fasted state,’ (the

This is a collection of articles by me, Joachim Bartoll, to get you started on the ultimate truth about human nutrition; how we humans as obvious obligate hyper carnivores are meant to eat to thrive and maximize our life span. I worked in the Gym-, Fitness-, Health-, Sports-, Supplement-, and Medical/Pharmaceutical Industry as both a Coach/Trainer, Scientist, Educator, Writer/Author, and Editor in Chief for more than 28 years combined. I began coaching elite athletes

It’s time to return to T-Nation and their diet-obsessed ‘Chief Content Officer’ Chris Shugart. After making a mess of several studies on protein, he how turned his eyes to a ridiculous “10-day diet” for ‘weight-lifting women.’ The article opens with a summary of the study and why it might not be a great idea, which he for once is correct about. “Want to lose 3 pounds of fat in only ten days? There’s a

Protein for Body Composition

Let’s take a break from the world-stage theatre in Israel and instead look at another article from Chris Shugart, the ‘Chief Content Officer’ at T-Nation. This time Chris looked at a new “study” where they simply increased the intake of protein by a measly 21 grams for a group of overweight people. To summarize the study, a group of “researchers” gathered up 200 people of overweight or obese men and women from all age

The Charlatan Paul Saladino Want You to be Unhealthy and Ridden with Disease

By / / Animal-Based Nutrition / Carnivore, Diet and Nutrition, Health and Fitness / 8 minutes of reading

Since I get questions about this crackpot Saladino all the time, I might as well do another article on him and the complete nonsense about “needing” carbohydrates. A few weeks ago, he made a video called “Why you need carbs in your diet,” so let us go through some of his opinions in that video and once again explain why this is a very bad and unhealthy idea. Funny enough, he starts his video

The Best and Worst Health Tips of All Time

By / / Diet and Nutrition, Health and Fitness / 7 minutes of reading

This will be an addition to my ‘What is Really Most Important for Health?’ article from a month ago. In that article, I listed ‘Diet/Nutrition,’ as in our natural homo sapiens species-appropriate and species-specific diet of 100% animal-based nutrition, also known as the carnivore diet, as the most important factor for health. That is an undisputable fact.I also listed ‘strategic and planned fasting’ for accelerating healing, repair, and detoxification. The third point touched on

Blood Clots, My Story, and What You Need to Know

By / / Diet and Nutrition, Health and Fitness / 7 minutes of reading

Last week, in early September, my past and the lingering damage from the cancer, tumors, diabetes, and failing organs in 2017 caught up with me again, as I had a small blood clot in one of my external blood vessels on my right lower leg. So, I thought I would share that experience, what caused it, and expand on the subject of blood clots and preventable measures. I first noticed a small redness and

What Makes You Fat?

This topic has been requested for a while. I already have several articles touching this subject, so this will be a simple breakdown and summary. Let’s start with some uncomfortable truths. Being overweight, or worse, being obese, is not natural, it’s not normal, it’s not something we see in nature with other species unless they are to go into hibernation, prepare for a cold winter, or about to migrate to new grazing/hunting areas.

Man From Antioquia, May Hold Clue to Alzheimer’s Prevention, Media Suggests on May 16 – And a Bit of Real Science

By / / Health and Fitness / 5 minutes of reading

The story goes like this. A man who seemed fated to develop memory loss in his 40s or 50s, based on family history, kept normal function for decades longer than he should have. He seems to have been protected by a rare gene change that enhanced the function of a protein that helps nerve cells communicate. The man is part of a large family in Antioquia, Colombia, with many members who have inherited a
