We have a great list of health myths that I’m going to go over with some science. Some of the myths I’ve addressed in the past, but they’ll inevitably end up on the “most popular” list. Let me know in the comment section below of any popular myths you’ve come across. Cold Weather Causes a […]

Here is Some Holiday Bullshit From NYSC
Deck the Halls with NYSC Bullshi’t! I can’t see the humor in this because my sense of smell is overwhelmed with bullshi’t. I guess it’s true what they say about your senses. I can’t care less about their distasteful advertisement. Howard Stern has done that for years and it’s worked. What bothers me is their […]
The Perfect Thanksgiving Turkey
The best thing about Thanksgiving is that it can be a healthy, delicious, filling meal. Get rid of the mashed potatoes, bread, cranberry and you’re good to go. A buttery turkey with gravy, Brussels sprouts, pumpkin and mixed green vegetables makes for a brilliant Thanksgiving dinner. I’m not going to put up a recipe this […]
Mother Fined $10 for Not Including Ritz Crackers in School Lunch
Healthy School Lunch?! I ran across a pretty funny, yet embarrassing article on boingboing.net about a mother who was fined ten bucks for not including cance-I mean crackers in her daughters school lunch. The requirements are 1 milk, 1 meat, 1 grain and 2 fruits/vegetables. I’d be fined up the ass if I had a child […]

Has Dr. Oz Finally Realized the Danger of Carbs?
Dr. Oz has been on a rampage about the dangers of saturated fat. Even with absolutely no scientific basis to stand on, Dr. Oz has still been hardheaded about his claims on saturated fat. Something really strange happened recently though. On 10/21/2013 Dr. Oz became less of an idiot. There was an awesome episode aired called […]
Bullshi’t New Study Promotes Cholesterol Statins for Healthy People
So the Scot’s feel like they have an awesome, Earth-shattering study that will change medicine as we know it! Unfortunately, this crappy ass study is about cholesterol statins. According to a recent study from Scottland, every one should be taking statins. That’s right, young healthy adults, kids, athletes, your dog, EVERYONE! Man, if I owned a […]
Three Reasons Why You Should be Taking Creatine
More Calorie Counting Crap
One dimensional research or lack of research experience leads people to come up with videos like the one below. It’s a shame because calorie counting is unscientific, misleading and even dangerous to some people. There are plenty of studies actually showing problems with the calorie counting theory. Hopefully this bullshi’t can die in the near […]
Poll Finds Plus Sized Women Prefer the Term Curvy
According to this article from The Daily News, fat chicks prefer to be called curvy women. Okay, I can understand some women don’t want to call themselves fat for whatever reason, but at least properly word it as overweight when you’re overweight. There’s a difference between an overweight girl and a girl with curves. Curvy […]
