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 and their clueless writer Matt Weik who recently wrote an article on multivitamins based on a new study. The cohort study used data from 3 prospective cohort studies in the US, each with baseline multivitamin (MV) use assessed from 1993 to 2001, and follow-up MV use assessed from 1998 to 2004, extended duration of follow-up up to 27 years, to assess the association of MV use with mortality

In the recent two years or so, I’ve covered fish oil, or the omega-3 fatty acids, several times as the popularity of the retarded practice of supplementation is still on the rise and being pushed by shills. Something that is totally unnecessary as it is extremely easy to get all the omega-3 you need by simply consuming some meat and/or eggs daily.

A few weeks back, the shill Dr. Axe published an article on niacin based on a new study that showed that too much niacin raises the risk of heart attack, stroke and other cardiovascular diseases. This leads us to the big elephant in the room, the real danger, the fake artificial and synthetic vitamins that are sold in supplements and used to “fortify” inferior processed food. But before we explore that dark side of

Again we return to T-Nation, who got their kickers (panties) in a twist yesterday after they had read the principal results of the VITamin D and OmegA-3 government funded TriaL (VITAL) and updated meta-analyses of other relevant vitamin D trials, which actually was published in The New England Journal of Medicine (NEJM), 2019. The VITAL trial conducted by the National Institute of Arthritis and Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases (NIAMS) found that Vitamin D3 supplementation

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

This should not come as a surprise, as these spices and herbs are very rich in phenols and polyphenols, as in phytonutrients, as in plant defense chemicals; poisonous compounds produced by the plant to ward off and kill anyone who tries to eat it. This is common knowledge within biology. What might come as a surprise is that the pharmaceutical shill-website Medical News Today actually writes about it. Well, they kind of have to,
