Dementia 101: Polyphenols (Urolithin A) Damages Brain Cells

By / / Diet and Nutrition, Health and Fitness / 6 minutes of reading

Yesterday, Chris Shugart over at T-Nation published yet another advertisement-article for their extremely toxic and useless polyphenol supplements. As you likely know by now, polyphenols are defense chemicals produced by plants to deter, hurt, sterilize and kill anyone who tries to damage or consume them. Defense chemicals are extremely toxic and damaging to human physiology.  This time Chris used yet another misinterpreted study that bastardized the science to make a point for you to […]

Fat Loss 101: Leptin And Hunger Is Not An Issue If You’re Fat Adapted and Fully Nourished

Today we return to T-Nation and their CCO Chris Shugart as he tries to tackle the “issue” of leptin on badly constructed “fat loss diets.”Leptin is believed to be a ‘hormone’ produced primarily by fat tissue in the body. It’s said to play a crucial role in weight regulation and energy balance as it signals the brain, particularly the hypothalamus, to regulate appetite and metabolism. So, let’s see what Mr. Shugart has to say

The Manufacturing Process of Fish Oil and Why to Avoid it

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

Once again we return to the bodybuilding- and fitness website of T-Nation and the latest advertisement-article on fish oil by their CCO Chris Shugart. They really have been pushing out a lot of these kinds of articles lately, trying to justify their line of supplements. As I’ve been in the supplement business myself, for about 15 years, and developed a lot of them, I can relate to the ‘business side’ of it. However, I

Low Testosterone in Men Linked to Premature Death?

By / / Body Transformation / Bodybuilding, Health and Fitness / 11 minutes of reading

Today we return to T-Nation and a very important topic. Although they used the study to try and sell you totally worthless “testosterone boosting” supplements, the main message is of importance, and it might not be as obvious as you think. However, it should be quite logical to anyone who understands biology and human physiology. For many years, due to the backwards pseudo-science of modern medicine, testosterone has been commonly believed to be linked

How About Preventing Prostate Cancer Instead?

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

On April 13, I reviewed an article by T-Nation on ejaculating and the possible effect on testosterone, where they as usual, got several things backwards. To make a long story short, too frequent ejaculations, as in every or every other day could have a small negative impact on testosterone, while actually getting aroused, as in sexually stimulated, temporarily raises testosterone. So, in other words, engaging in sexual activity, or pleasing yourself, as long as

Protein Synthesis: How to Sell More Useless Supplements

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

Today we return to a short article at T-Nation based on a study from 2017 on whole eggs vs. egg whites as a post-workout meal and its effect on ‘muscle protein synthesis.’ Once upon a time, I have to admit that I was very much into the whole para-workout nutrition thing, as I experimented a lot among both my clients who were willing to try new ideas, and other lifters that I recruited through

It’s Simple. All ‘Eat Less’ Diets Suck!

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

The other day, the bodybuilding and fitness online publication T-Nation posted another ‘dieting’ article. This time it was Chris Shugart writing a piece on a badly executed study comparing what some call “rigid dieting” and the even more retarded “flexible dieting.” As I’ve actually coached in bodybuilding and fitness from the mid 90’s to around 2016, about 20+ years on a highly professional level, this will surely be interesting, or a big laugh. Chris

If You Get Hungry, You’re Doing it Wrong!

By / / Diet and Nutrition, Health and Fitness / 10 minutes of reading

This morning, on April 7, which also happens to be my 50th birthday, we return to my roots of human physiology, fat-loss, performance, and the bastardized pseudo-scientific field of nutrition, where I’ve worked more than 30 years at the absolute top-level.Today we’ll look at the latest article published by T Nation, a piece on “appetite suppression” written by Chris Shugart, where they claim that you don’t need an expensive injection to curb appetite during
