Forcing The Body to Use More Energy By Increased Detoxification Is Not A Good Idea

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 […]

Plant Toxins, Accumulated Toxicity, Tissue Damage, And a Decreased Lifespan

After this Saturday’s article on the toxicity of nuts (seeds) my social media was flooded by comments and questions. While the majority of comments were positive, as my friends and followers are awake and of higher intelligence than the average sleeping sheeple, some comments were from people who never really commented before — most likely people who never looked at biology, physiology or biochemistry and simply believe in mainstream backwards “nutrition science” and “medical

What You Need To Know About Vitamin K

The pharmaceutical shills at Healthline are at it again, publishing their usual nonsensical backwards-thinking rubbish. This time they praise the importance of vitamin K and recommend extremely toxic food sources without mentioning anything about bioavailability and the different chemical forms, as in non-active inorganic (plants) and the active organic forms (animals,) nor how these forms present themselves within the body, and how our body handles them. They are either outright lying to their audience,

Just Another Dangerous Scam: The Noom Diet

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

Supplemented Inorganic Zinc Increase Endometriosis Risk

The shills at Medical News Today recently published another piece of garbage where they, and the mentally handicapped researchers of the quoted study, cannot differentiate between natural organic zinc and inorganic or synthetic forms of zinc that is used in supplements or to fortify processed foods. A very simple and universal rule is that any nutrient from an animal is organic, non-toxic and 100% bioavailable to humans, while anything else, whether it’s plant-based or

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

Iron Deficiency and Blood Tests Explained

In late August, I corrected the extreme misinformation in an article by Medical News Today where they blamed heme iron for causing diabetes, when the truth was the complete opposite. On that note, recently, the disinformation shills at Healthline, the owners of Medical News Today, published an article about iron deficiency and how to remedy it. Of course, as usual, they fail to understand simple biology and biochemistry, so let’s take a look at

Okra Water is Simply an Extremely Toxic Sludge Soup

One of the most clueless writers on the Internet is back with yet another atrocious piece of garbage. Yes, I’m talking about Matt Weik of Ironmagazine and his gullible attempt at promoting Okra water, a shitstorm of plant-based toxins infused into water after soaking this poisonous green pod of seeds, the most toxic part of any plant. Anyone with the most basic understanding of biology and biochemistry should understand that drinking such an infusion
