Weight Gain and Why Some Pack on the Pounds While Others Struggle

There is no such thing as acidic or alkaline food!

I have touched on this pseudoscience nonsense many times. There is no such thing as a food being acidic or alkaline to the body. However, I still see a lot of “dieticians,” “nutritionists,” practitioners of “holistic nutrition”, and “fitness coaches” claiming that our body need more alkaline foods, or worse, supplements to make it more alkaline. If you have any understanding of human physiology, you should know that nutrients from the food is mostly

Mis/Disinformation and Misunderstandings That Need to Die in 2022

1. Misunderstanding: Food is Medicine“Medicine” indicates that there is something “nonsurgical” to treat or cure that the body would not be able to fix itself. However, there are no ‘diseases’ in nature. Only poisoning and effects of toxicity or trauma. And as far as food is concerned, only malnutrition. Food is sustenance to make sure our body can work as intended. Food in itself does not treat or cure anything; but it is necessary

Know Your Poison: Deuterium

So far, we’ve dealt with two of more than a dozen antinutrients and defense chemicals found in plant ‘foods’ that we will cover in this article series. Next on the list is deuterium, a compound that most dieticians, nutritionists, doctors and clueless trainers don’t even know exists. Hydrogen comes in two “shapes”: we have regular hydrogen, which is actually called protium, and then we have deuterium. Deuterium has the same properties as hydrogen, except

Know Your Poison: Phytic Acid

In this part of covering all the toxic plant chemicals, we will look at phytic acid; one of the few antinutrients that at least some people actually know exists. While it fades in comparison with some other plant defense toxins, it’s still a very serious and dangerous one. As with all antinutrients, they are simply chemicals that bind to nutrients that the plant, or seed, need in order to grow. Phytic acid is no

The Roles of Vitamin C and D in Bone Health

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

The Need For Mineral Supplementation Equals A Lacking Diet

Today we return to T-Nation after weeks of them doing reruns of their advertisement articles, trying to sell you toxic supplement junk. And while this is also an advertisement article for mineral supplements, I’ve only touched on minerals in some previous articles, so let’s take a deeper look today. “If you aren’t using REAL chelated minerals, you probably have a deficiency that can lead to low T and other problems.

Sarcopenia Is Due To A Toxic And High-Carb Diet

Let’s see how Chris tries to fit this subject into the world of fitness and strength training, and what supplements he would like his gullible readers to purchase this time around. “Lifters tune out when they hear the word sarcopenia. That’s an old-fart
