Low Testosterone and Blood Sugar Blues

Today we return to T-Nation and their latest article covering SHBG and its relationship with total testosterone and the very important “free testosterone.” As they are a supplement company pretending to be a ”hardcore” fitness and bodybuilding magazine, we can expect a lot of bullshit as they try to protect their bro-science lifestyle and sell totally worthless and very toxic supplements that I wouldn’t even touch if they paid me handsomely for trying them.So, […]

Is The Cyclical Ketogenic Diet A Good Choice For Athletes?

Today we return to Iron Magazine, the supplement-based “bodybuilding and fitness magazine” platform that once upon a time tried to ride on the popularity of our online magazine IronMag Online. This time, their writer Matt Weik tackles the Cyclical Ketogenic Diet (CKD.) So, let’s see what he has to say, and I’ll add my thoughts from my 28-years of experience with ketogenic diets and elite-level coaching. “Many people have heard of, tried, or have

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

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

More Backwards Thinking: Fight Diabetes By Regrowing The Pancreas

The Medical- and Pharmaceutical shill website Medical News Today published, yesterday, yet another article on a possible “diabetes treatment.” This time it was based on a study in mice where the researchers used a two-drug combination to ‘regrow’ cells in the pancreas that produce insulin. While this might sound promising for the uninitiated, it once again shows the illogical and idiotic backwards thinking of the pharmaceutical industry, not to mention the obvious complications and

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

A Fast-Mimicking Diet Is Nothing Close To Fasting!

Today, we once again return to the Pharmaceutical-, Medical- and Government shill-website Healthline and their extremely dangerous and retarded take on the latest fad called the “Fast-Mimicking Diet.” Before we continue, fasting is a state of self-imposed “starvation,” as in not eating anything at all, and preferably not drinking anything either, as in the highly effective method of dry fasting. You cannot imitate ‘not eating’ by actually eating. That is frikkiin’ retarded. You get

Workout Nutrition Recommendations Still Outdated in 2024

Today, for a laugh, we return to the Big Pharma and Government shill-site known as Healthline, one of the worst places for pure disinformation and propaganda on anything health- and nutrition related. A few days ago they posted an article on workout nutrition by Arlene Semeco, MS, RD and Celia Shatzman, which was “medically reviewed” by Jared Meacham, Ph.D., RD, CSCS. That simply means that a bunch of trained and indoctrinated monkeys wrote a

How Much Fat Should You Consume on a Typical Carnivore Diet? And a Few Words on Digestive Issues

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
