  1. Article: New low-calorie way to cook rice could help cut r

    For thousands of years, humans were trying out every single trick to squeeze a few extra calories out of what they eat. Now we're so fat that we're jumping through hoops just to shave off a few calories without actually developing discipline or self-awareness. That right there says so much...
  2. Article: High-fat diet alters behavior and produces signs

    "High-fat diets have long been known to increase the risk for medical problems, including heart disease and stroke, but there is growing concern that diets high in fat might also increase the risk for depression and other psychiatric disorders." All I know is that my actual blood test...
  3. Article: 9 Evidence-Based Health Benefits of Kefir

    There's a lot of variation with store-bought kefir in regards to secondary ingredients (like thickeners, stabilizers, & flavoring additives), and a fairly significant variation in sugar content. This is because the longer you ferment the kefir, the more sugar gets eaten by the fermenting...
  4. sugar alcohols and keto

    I'm really interested in this topic in general, and one thing I've learned is that this is not a 100% clear-cut, answered question. Some keto researchers say avoid them like the plague, some are more lenient -- though they all warn about the gastric consequences of sugar alcohol intake plus the...
  5. Mucuna Pruriens libido

    I've always had a kind of paradoxical reaction to Mucuna that leaves me in a kind of distracted mood and after a few days of taking it, my libido is in the dumps. It's possibly an indirect reaction more than a direct causation, but it's still there and it's so strong and happens so consistently...
  6. Why does it seem like most women do not date bodybuilders?

    To briefly address the sub-topic -- the idea of sculpting one's body through exercise existed long before bodybuilding as a professional beauty contest ever existed. Therefore, yeah, you don't need to be a pro to be a bodybuilder. If you are a person who lifts weights (and monitors your food...
  7. Article: Protein gummies hit sweet spot of convenience, ta

    "Rapid Acting Protein Essence" would have been a much better name.
  8. Article: Even motivated dieters need close access to healt

    Maybe there are some seriously messed up neighborhoods that I don't know about. But even Wal-Mart has a perfectly good array of healthy choices -- I've seen organic free-range chicken & grass fed beef at plus all the veggies (fresh & frozen) that one needs. Any other grocery store has even...
  9. Article: Big Reasons For Little Progress

    lol! Squats & Deads are bad for you...unless you use our patented $600 trap bar... Pre & post workout nutrition? TOTALLY useless...unless you happen to buy our $8 a dose pre & post workout nutrition formula... (and yeah, I checked the T-nation original, he hawks the Plazma & Indigo in the...
  10. Article: Some Yogurts Are Worse Than Twinkies

    Are you seriously getting emotional over an article about yoghurt?
  11. Article: Quality Of Calories Matters More Than Number

    I'm not really sure why so many people are reacting negatively to this article. It's presenting the same information in most of the other diet articles on Anabolic Minds, it's just presenting it more towards a "Huffington Post" type of audience than an athlete type audience. The information...
  12. Article: Quality Of Calories Matters More Than Number

    I'm not really sure why so many people are reacting negatively to this article. It's presenting the same information in most of the other diet articles on Anabolic Minds, it's just presenting it more towards a "Huffington Post" type of audience than an athlete type audience. The information...
  13. Productivity/study stack? (nootropics & stims)

    I realize my suggestion is going to go against the usual calls for "more More MOAR!!!" but be cool with the stims. More is not always better, and you might have much better results with modest doses of more nootropics (not higher doses of all nootropics). I completely tanked the final for...
  14. Article: Bodyweight Strength Building

    I have to say, that slow-tempo muscle up was pretty damned impressive.
  15. Article: Green Tomatoes For Lean Muscle?

    Keep it away from the Biotest guys. They'll market it as "ToMega-12" and charge a "Special Introductory Price" that comes out to about $12 a day.
