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

A few days ago, the fitness- and bodybuilding wannabe writer Chris Shugart of T-Nation posted an article on what he deemed the “world’s easiest diet strategy.” Well, that’s quite a statement from someone I’ve had to correct hundreds of times while doing my article reviews. Let’s see what he has come up with, and I’ll add my thoughts as an actual coach with 25+ years of real-world experience with hundreds of competing athletes at […]

Insulin, Glucose Toxicity, And Fat Loss

By / / Diet and Nutrition, Health and Fitness / 12 minutes of reading

Today we’ll take a look at Anabolic Minds, a quite popular bodybuilding and supplement website very similar to T-Nation, but with fewer advertisement articles and less pushing for toxic and useless supplements. While their article on the Carnivore Diet vs. The Mediterranean Diet was a total mess of being totally clueless of bioavailability and what nutrients actually are, their latest article on insulin is a perfect example of getting some things right while being

Backwards Thinking: PGC-1α Protein and Fat Loss Through Exercise

By / / Body Transformation / Bodybuilding, Diet and Nutrition, Health and Fitness / 8 minutes of reading

Today we return to Medical News Today and their recent article on “weight loss” through the futile method of exercise. Exercise is simply stress as it tears down the body and suppresses our hormones. While some exercise is good to keep an aerobic- and strength-wise foundation, and to stimulate the lymphatic system, it is pretty useless for fat loss or weight management. You simply have to consider the negative impact versus the little extra

Volumetrics — The Stupidest Fat Loss Diet Fad Since IIFYM? 

By / / Body Transformation / Bodybuilding, Diet and Nutrition, Health and Fitness / 9 minutes of reading

There seems to be just as many types of diets as there are stupid dietitians, nutritionists, and coaches within the dieting- and fitness industry, and that is a lot, pretty much 99% of them. So, it comes as no surprise that the website “Iron Magazine,” the website that once upon a time tried to ride on the fame of our IronMag that dominated the health- and fitness space on the internet during the 90’s,

By / / Animal-Based Nutrition / Carnivore, Diet and Nutrition / 9 minutes of reading

I get a lot of fat-related questions, including requests for help regarding digestive issues among those who want to transition to our natural species-appropriate, species-specific carnivorous way of eating. Most of these questions are from my consulting services and some issues require some fine-tuning back and forth to slowly heal and get the digestive system working again. With that said, there’s a lot that you can try that is fairly simple and straightforward without

Stubborn Body Fat

By / / Body Transformation / Bodybuilding, Diet and Nutrition, Health and Fitness / 8 minutes of reading

Yesterday, the T-Nation staff published an anonymous article about “stubborn body fat” due to what they call “insulin insensitivity.” And as usual with these bro-science and pseudo-science-based fitness-websites, they almost got a few things right — but as always, they got most of it wrong. Let’s see what they had to say on this subject. They introduce their “article of solutions” by explaining that it is easy for a guy to go from 25%

Don’t Waste Your Money: R-lipoic Acid (ALA/RLA) Supplements

By / / Diet and Nutrition, Health and Fitness / 11 minutes of reading

Today we return to Anabolic Minds and a recent article they published on the subject of R-lipoic acid (RLA) and weight management, as in fat loss. We know that naturally occurring and bioavailable RLA and its bioactive form dihydrolipoic acid (DHLA) have important antioxidant properties, assist in detoxification and cellular repair, and also plays a role in energy production, as in the conversion of glucose into energy through aerobic metabolism. So, let’s see what

Plant Toxins, Accumulated Toxicity, Tissue Damage, And a Decreased Lifespan

After this Saturday’s article on the toxicity of nuts (seeds) my social media was flooded by comments and questions. While the majority of comments were positive, as my friends and followers are awake and of higher intelligence than the average sleeping sheeple, some comments were from people who never really commented before — most likely people who never looked at biology, physiology or biochemistry and simply believe in mainstream backwards “nutrition science” and “medical

Nuts (Seeds) Are Extremely Toxic And Useless

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

As I’m a bit short on time, we return to Examine.com for today’s “shorter” article and their summary of yet another stupid and unnecessary nutritional meta-analysis. And to be clear, a meta-analysis is a statistical method of combining and synthesizing the results of multiple independent studies addressing a “common research question.” So, what was this common question, this fascinating puzzle they had to solve this time? Well, this bunch of monkeys went through a

The Roles of Vitamin C and D in Bone Health

By / / Diet and Nutrition, Health and Fitness / 9 minutes of reading

Today we visit Examine.com, a website dedicated to review and “analyze” the latest “scientific research,” with an extra focus on nutrition and supplementation (which is extremely toxic and dangerous.) While they lack the knowledge and experience to actually do what they claim, it’s still a good source to keep track of all the studies and research papers being published within these pseudo-scientific fields — and simply from Examine’s summary, you can tell if it’s
