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

One of the worst websites on the interwebs is at it again. This time, Healthline with its authors, still not managing to average an IQ between them of that of a Chimpanzee, got virtually everything about inflammation and cholesterol wrong. If you’re familiar with my work or with the real science of human physiology, you already know that inflammation is simply a name for the body’s response of healing damaged tissue. Inflammation in itself […]

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

Today we return to the shill Dr. Axe and his website that promotes extremely unhealthy diet- and nutritional advice. On occasion, his crew also covers other topics, like this recent study on assessed perinatal factors known to be related to maternal and neonatal inflammation and hypothesized that several would be associated with emotional, cognitive, and behavioral dysregulation in youth. As the “researchers” used the word ‘inflammation’ in their description of the objective of the

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

Today we return to the shill-website Healthline who recently published an article on graying hair, it’s causes, and what can and can’t be done about it.As usual, they get a small portion right while explaining it wrong, and as always, they fall back on complete pseudo-science, the lies we’ve been told since childhood.

Today we yet again return to the Bodybuilding and Fitness website T-Nation and their take on “exposing” Big Pharma and their lies about heart attacks and medicine in general. Let’s see what they got right and what, due to their limited understanding of human physiology, they got wrong.

Testosterone Supplement Bollocks

By / / Body Transformation / Bodybuilding, Health and Fitness / 7 minutes of reading

Yesterday, April 29, T Nation posted a new and very distasteful article on increasing Testosterone “naturally” trough supplementation. Let’s see what their editorial staff had to say — as they now avoid any responsibility by withholding the name of the (likely retarded) author/authors. They begin the article by a second sub-headline masked as a very distasteful statement, by posing the question, “Not Ready for the Needle? Boost Testosterone Naturally.” This kind of implies that

By / / Body Transformation / Bodybuilding, Diet and Nutrition / 7 minutes of reading

The shills at Healthline are back with what they call six “Science-Backed Tips to Lose Weight Fast and Sustainably.”At least they start off with telling their readers to ‘cut carbs,’ although it should say ‘cut out carbs,’ as in removing all extremely toxic carbohydrates. Well, let’s see what more they have. “How to lose weight in 6 simple steps…” 1. Eat protein, fat, and vegetables “Aim to include a variety of foods at each
