All About Ghrelin, Hunger, Cravings, and Starvation

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 […]

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,

How Not to Do Research: Extreme Exercise and Lifespan

Today we return to the government- and Big Pharma disinformation website ‘Medical News Today,’ and a recent summary of yet another extremely poorly executed study. This time it was a paper on the longevity of the first 200 sub-4 min mile male runners, put together by some ill-trained monkeys at the University of Alberta, Edmonton, Canada. As you should know, all form of intense exercise is stress and damages the body, which means that
