Once again we return to Examine.com and a summary of a recent meta-analysis looking at the association between artificial sweeteners and the risk of cardiovascular events. This should be another no-brainer as far as common sense goes. Let’s see what they found. Quick Summary “In this meta-analysis of 12 prospective cohort studies in 1,224,560 men and women, researchers looked at the intake of artificial sweeteners and the association with higher risks of all-cause mortality, […]

New Marketing Gimmick: Protein Powder And Protein Water Is The Same Thing — And A Word On Protein Fixation

By / / Diet and Nutrition, Health and Fitness / 12 minutes of reading

Today we return to the government shills and the incompetent fools at Verywell Health for an article covering the new “protein water” gimmick. Let’s see what they have to say. “Protein is taking over the internet and the grocery store. Countless fitness influencers wax poetic about the benefits of eating lots of protein, and store shelves are filled with protein bars, shakes, and powders that all promise to help.” Actually, this psy-op, this deception,

Remember the misguided obsession that Chris Shugart of T-Nation has for protein? Well, the imbecile Matt Weik of the competing Ironmagazine is now trying to follow in Shugart’s footsteps, and to be honest he stumbles quite a lot, as usual. Let’s see what crap he scattered all over his poor readers this time. “I was cruising the internet the other day and stumbled upon some information that I found interesting. The topic was that

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

By / / Diet and Nutrition, Health and Fitness / 14 minutes of reading

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

A few days ago, the fitness- and bodybuilding wannabe writer Chris Shugart of T-Nation posted an article on what he deemed the “world’s easiest diet strategy.” Well, that’s quite a statement from someone I’ve had to correct hundreds of times while doing my article reviews. Let’s see what he has come up with, and I’ll add my thoughts as an actual coach with 25+ years of real-world experience with hundreds of competing athletes at

Food Addiction and Junk Food Withdrawal

By / / Diet and Nutrition, Health and Fitness / 9 minutes of reading

Yesterday, Chris Shugart of T-Nation published an article on the subject of food addiction and withdrawal. Considering that all they do is push toxic supplements, one can only guess what his “solution” will be. A shit ton of protein powder perhaps, since protein can be quite satiating? Well, let’s see what he has to say, and I’ll add my thoughts along the way. “Dave needs a hit, man. It’s been a couple of hours

Solein Air Protein — Another Scam Riding on the Climate Change Hoax

By / / Diet and Nutrition / 5 minutes of reading

The once pillar of the Bodybuilding community back in the 60’s, 70’s and early 80’s, Joe Weider’s Muscle Builder, renamed to ‘Muscle & Fitness,’ is nowadays not even a bleak copy of the original magazine, but more of an politically correct agenda-driven “fitness” magazine to keep people trapped in the backwards accepted pseudo-science of exercise and nutrition. Thus, it comes as no surprise that they recently published an article about Solar Foods’ Protein Powder

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

Once again we return to T-Nation and an article focused on protein and muscle gain based on a study they found that can help them sell more protein supplements. While I do agree that you need more than ‘one meal a day’ to efficiently build muscle mass and maintain an athletic physique, let’s see where they go with this — and if the study is even relevant to world case scenarios (which they almost
