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 […]

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. Before we continue, for those unfamiliar with keratin, it’s a type of fibrous structural protein found in the epithelial cells of the outermost layers of the skin, as well as in hair, nails, horns, hooves, wool, feathers, and the scales of

Supplemented Inorganic Zinc Increase Endometriosis Risk

The shills at Medical News Today recently published another piece of garbage where they, and the mentally handicapped researchers of the quoted study, cannot differentiate between natural organic zinc and inorganic or synthetic forms of zinc that is used in supplements or to fortify processed foods. A very simple and universal rule is that any nutrient from an animal is organic, non-toxic and 100% bioavailable to humans, while anything else, whether it’s plant-based or

The Real Reasons For Hearing Loss and Cognitive Decline

As always, the medical field and their extremely incompetent and paid-off researchers once again failed to understand the simple fact that just because two variables are associated, it does not mean that one causes the other. This is why we who practice real science say, “correlation does not imply causation,” as correlation alone does not establish a cause-and-effect relationship between the variables. In other words, just because two variables are correlated, it does not

The Need For Mineral Supplementation Equals A Lacking Diet

Today we return to T-Nation after weeks of them doing reruns of their advertisement articles, trying to sell you toxic supplement junk. And while this is also an advertisement article for mineral supplements, I’ve only touched on minerals in some previous articles, so let’s take a deeper look today. “If you aren’t using REAL chelated minerals, you probably have a deficiency that can lead to low T and other problems. Here’s what you need

Backwards Thinking: Blocking Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) To Fight Hair Loss

The shill-site Healthline recently published an article on “6 Foods That May Block DHT and Fight Hair Loss.” Of course, the foods listed are extremely toxic, and while they may screw up your hormone profile and lower DHT, they will also cause a multitude of other problems and bodily harm. And more importantly, is DHT really to blame for hair loss? Let’s see what they have to say on the topic of DHT and

The Toxic Load of Tattoos, Cancer Risks, And Lymphoma

Once again we return to Medical News Today and a recent compilation of studies on the dangers of tattoos, especially the increased risk of cancer, and blood cancer in particular. In February of 2016, I wrote an article for my Classic Muscle Newsletter about the dangers of tattoos — something that should be obvious as you actually punch toxins (heavy metals) into the dermis of the skin, the layer of connective tissue, which also

Testosterone Supplement Bollocks

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
