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

Today we return to T-Nation and their clueless and protein-obsessed writer Chris Shugart, a guy I’ve had to correct more times than I care to remember. This time he’s once again raving about the alleged metabolic/thermogenic effects of protein, which in reality are almost negligible. We already know that protein is used for several processes in the body, processes that require energy — so about 20 to 30 % of the energy content in […]

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

Iron Magazine and its extremely ignorant and clueless writer, Matt Weik, has been putting out more nonsensical garbage than usual this week. One of their articles covered the Noom diet and read more like an advertisement piece than a critical review. And although it sounds like the old Lolcat meme of “Om Nom Nom Nom,” it’s far from it. Let’s see what this moron, this Matt Weik, managed to put together. And I’ll try

All About Ghrelin, Hunger, Cravings, and Starvation

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

Today we return to the shills at Medical News Today and their attempt at explaining ghrelin and the impact of vigorous workouts on appetite and hunger. Yes, again the same backwards thinking, as in exercising more to blunt hunger instead of fixing the issue that causes hunger, which is nutrient deficiencies. But we’ll get to that. Let’s see what these uneducated morons have to say first. “Ghrelin is a hormone in the body that

Bariatric Weight-Loss Surgery: Never Submit Yourself To Surgery Unless Seriously Injured!

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

One of the worst and possible most evil ways to manipulate weak-minded and gullible people, is to maim them for life through surgical procedures, such as bariatric surgery, or “weight-loss surgery” to reduce the size of the stomach in order to limit the amount of food someone can eat in a day. Anyone with an ounce of intelligence should be able to figure out that such an approach is a very, very bad idea. And

Calories, As In Heat Units, Are Irrelevant To Human Physiology

By / / Diet and Nutrition / 13 minutes of reading

Today we’ll visit the website of the bodybuilding magazine “Muscular Development” and their nutrition section where Brad Schoenfeld, Ph.D., who for some reason actually managed to make himself a name within the fitness industry, answers the question if a “calorie is a calorie.” Let’s see what Brad answers, while I’ll add some real science, common sense, and logic to the discussion. You know, the qualities that got lost somewhere along the road a long

Today we return to T-Nation as Chris Shugart takes a look at yet another extremely retarded theory in an effort to sell some supplements to their gullible readers. As you might know, I worked for more than 30+ years the fitness/coaching-, diet-, supplement-, and medical industry at an elite level, coaching more than 1100 athletes — especially within Bodybuilding and Fitness, as in getting athletes ridiculously shredded for competitions and keeping a decent appearance

Food Addiction and Junk Food Withdrawal

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

Yesterday, Chris Shugart of T-Nation published an article on the subject of food addiction and withdrawal. Considering that all they do is push toxic supplements, one can only guess what his “solution” will be. A shit ton of protein powder perhaps, since protein can be quite satiating? Well, let’s see what he has to say, and I’ll add my thoughts along the way. “Dave needs a hit, man. It’s been a couple of hours

Stupid 30-Days Challenges — Change Your Relationship to Food Instead

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

Healthline, who also operates Medical News Today, and who is owned by Red Ventures that is financed by Silver Lake Partners, who has its roots in BlackRock, recently posted an article about a “30-day no sugar challenge.” Sounds good, no? Well, let’s see how they tackle that subject with their agenda of keeping you a weak, disease ridden, and dependent little slave to the food- and pharmaceutical industry. “There’s no doubt that consuming too
