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 […]

There’s No Limit To Protein Absorption And Utilization

By / / Diet and Nutrition, Health and Fitness / 7 minutes of reading

One of the worst foodie websites on the internet, “Eat This, Not That,” recently posted an article on protein and how much you should consume in one meal. The really hilarious part is that they, following the post-2020 absurd trend, have added a “fact checked” claim on the article. Well, let’s see about that. And this will be a quick one, as I’m pressed on time today. “Protein is one of the four macronutrients

Today we revisit the shill Dr. Axe and his staff’s latest attempt to write an article about ‘workout nutrition’ and food for athletes. On June 23, I reviewed a similar article from Healthline, which was, well, really bad. Let’s see how this ‘Rachael Link’ does, and I’ll add my thoughts from working at the absolute elite-level in this field for more than 20 years. “It’s no secret that hitting the gym is important when

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

More Backwards Thinking: Fight Diabetes By Regrowing The Pancreas

By / / Health and Fitness / 6 minutes of reading

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

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

By / / Animal-Based Nutrition / Carnivore, Diet and Nutrition / 9 minutes of reading

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

The Ketogenic Diet and Mental Health Benefits

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

The Big Pharma and Medical Pseudo-Science shill-website Medical News Today recently tried their best to stay neutral while reviewing a new study on the Ketogenic Diet and its potential to improve mood and mental well-being in the general population. Considering that the study, like all “nutritional oriented” studies was very poorly done, and the writers at Medical News Today are totally clueless about human physiology, this might be a fun ride. As usual, I’ll

Isomaltulose (Palatinose) is Just as Toxic as Any Carbohydrate

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

Yesterday, May 6, T-Nation posted yet another advertisement article for their useless supplements. It seems most of their articles nowadays are just that – advertisements filled with pseudo-science and utter nonsense. This time they began their “article” with a throwback to the 1950’s and the era of desperate ads by the sugar- and food industry touting sugar as a “superfood” to kill cravings and increase willpower as a countermeasure to health experts that had
