Keratin Supplementation And Skin, Hair, And Nail Health

Today we’ll take a quick look at a summary by Examine.com on a study that examined the effects of supplementing with keratin hydrolysate and its possible effects on skin, hair, and nail health.

The Extreme Dangers and Damage of a Fruitarian Diet (Even Short-Term)

Today we return to the supplement-driven Iron Magazine, a website that supposedly is aimed at bodybuilding and fitness, but with retarded crap such as the article we’re about to look at, it’s hard to tell what the heck they are or represent. Once again, it’s the awful and shamefully ignorant writer Matt Weik who this time tackles the fruitarian diet, possibly the worst and most dangerous diet out there, even more so than veganism.

More on Skin Care and the Misinformation About Vitamin C

Vitamin C has mainly three effects on the body. It up-regulates different collagen genes, it’s an antioxidant, and it competes with glucose at the glut-4 receptor. However, sun exposure, vitamin A (animal: retinol), and vitamin K2 (animal: MK4) also up-regulates these collagen genes and many more, rendering vitamin C unnecessary for collagen production (skin, hair, nails, joints, etc.). So, you can only get scurvy if you lack these fat-soluble vitamins. If you get these
