Zinc Deficiency Is Impossible On A Natural Animal-Based Diet

Today we return to T-Nation, the fitness wannabe supplement pushers that never have studied biochemistry, nor looked into simple biology or physiology. In their recent article on “zinc deficiency,” they once again fail to differentiate between organic and bioavailable minerals and inorganic non-bioavailable minerals. Let’s see what else they made a mess of. “Relying on the RDI (Recommended Dietary Intake) system is tricky business. The RDI provides guidelines for nutrient intake. The problem? The […]

Endocrine-Disrupting Compounds And Your Health

Today we return to T-Nation and their COO Chris Shugart as he tackles the silly issue of touching BPA-drenched receipts. I’ve had a good laugh about this one for years, as with most ‘can’t see the forest because of the trees’ fallacies of overemphasizing the minutiae while neglecting the big picture. So, let’s see if he got this one right and what more there is to add. “Along with paper, receipts are made from

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

Forget Toxic Supplements — You Can Only Get Vitamin B12 From Animal Foods

The supplement pushers at T-Nation are back with another ignorant and potentially dangerous advertisement article — this time “tackling” the problem of vitamin B12 deficiency among clueless and dumbed down plant-based morons. Before we get ahead of ourselves and laugh our asses off from reading their “recommendations,” let’s start from the beginning and see what else they got wrong. “When researchers studied over 160,000 vegans and vegetarians, they discovered an alarming trend: their mental

The World’s Easiest Fat Loss Strategy Is The Carnivore Diet With Scheduled Fasting

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

Being a Beta-Voter Will Plummet Your Testosterone

The shameless T-Nation is back trying to sell you fake and toxic “testosterone boosting” supplements, riding on the staged and predetermined U.S. Election. If you’re an all-out weak soy-fed beta male, you might fall for these shenanigans (and you will probably vote like an obedient little slave.) Luckily, my readers are of a different breed. So, let’s see what T-Nation and their cringy writers came up with this time. And this article will be

It’s Not Fasting! Resveratrol Induced Autophagy Will Kill Any Cells

The supplement and bro-science shills at T-Nation have been busy little bees as of lately, as always mixing backward-thinking “science,” bad interpretations, and the complete lack of understanding of physiology, biology, and biochemistry — especially the simple biological and chemical differences between animals, such as human, and that of plants. This time these deceiving bastards try to hijack the benefits of fasting by selling you them through a very toxic and potentially deadly supplement.

Reduced Testosterone and Increased Estrogen in Men is Mainly Due to Carbohydrates

Today we return to the supplement and bro-science shills at T-Nation where they tackle the rising problem with low levels of testosterone and especially high levels of estrogen in men. Considering the inverted pseudo-science of nutrition and all the extremely retarded nutrition advice these idiots spew out, as in consuming carbohydrates, which also are a common component of some of their supplements, let’s see if they dare mention the big elephant in the room,
