The Placebo Effect On Sports Supplements
13 CommentsPosted by - Fit Jerk - on January 18, 2010 under Articles By Section, Nutrition
. Recently I read a kick-ass article over at Wired on how the effects of Placebo is getting stronger and stronger in humans… resulting in drug companies having to ditch the testing and production of new drugs because they usually do not fair better (sometimes worse) than a lame ol’ sugar pill. How incredibly insane is that? Now when it comes to the pharmaceutical industry… I for one, a... more. -
Recipe: Grilled Fish & Berry Blast – FitJerk Friday’s
2 CommentsPosted by - Fit Jerk - on January 3, 2010 under Nutrition, Recipes
You remember Wendy right? She's the one that blessed me with the breasts & cock sauce recipe. Well, I had another assignment for her, this time it was all about raw! Well, as raw as you should get in this day and age... a pure raw diet would involve a recipe that starts off by wearing ninja masks and stealing shit from farmers. That's too much effort. I also told her that I wanted a complete m... more. -

The Carbs You Eat Could Suck The Life Outa You
21 CommentsPosted by - Fit Jerk - on October 16, 2009 under Articles By Section, Nutrition
Eating carbs and feeling like shit… sounds pretty counter productive right? I mean, we’ve been lead to believe that carbs are fuel and should therefore make you “go” after their consumption. And It doesn’t matter if they are high-gi carbs such as white flour where you get a boost then crash or if you take in low-gi carbs such as brown rice and have a smooth stream of energy. But, this... more. -
Energy Bars & Protein Bars – Nutritious Mini-Meal Or Glorified Candy?
24 CommentsPosted by - Fit Jerk - on June 13, 2009 under Articles By Section, Nutrition
So, you've heard me (along with many other experts) preach and say that you need to eat at least 6 meals a day. Then we have a few panzies who disagree for the sake of starting an argument and say "its all BS... You don't need to eat that many meals a day... Just eat 4000 calories in one meal and then coast". See the comments in my 10 tips to lose 10lbs article for some foolish hilarity. Anyway... more. -
Health Benefits Of Tea – How To Chose The Right Cup For You
8 CommentsPosted by - Fit Jerk - on May 22, 2009 under Articles By Section, Nutrition
Ah, tea... Where would I be without it? Although I love my coffee, nothing replaces a nice hot cup of green tea with lemon, honey and a pinch of ginger powder. Did you know that second to water, tea is the MOST consumed beverage around the globe? Yeah... And you thought it was just the Brits that drank this stuff. But there is a damn good reason (more than one actually) why tea is so popular - ... more. -
How To Boost & Strengthen Your Immune System With Top Herbal Remedies
3 CommentsPosted by - Fit Jerk - on May 11, 2009 under Articles By Section, Nutrition
With all the hoo-haa about swine flu and every health blog posting some type of article on this media-hyped topic, I figured I'd take a different approach. Yes, swine flu is bad, and it has killed many people but it's STILL just a flu, and the best way to PREVENT a flu (or a cold) is by having a strong immune system... Not by having the right drugs to cure yourself in case you get it. Prevent that... more. -
Building Muscle Mass By Eating More… Carbs? Why Gluconeogenesis Is Your Enemy

Alright, so you work your ass off in the gym, and know that protein is the fundamental element that you need to eat to build rock hard muscles, and carbs are something you should cut down on to avoid getting fat. Right? Well I can see where you're coming from, but if you're really kickin' it in the gym and aren't taking in a carb to protein ratio of at least 1.5 : 1... You are wasting your time an... more. -
“Meet Your Meat” – My Response To Choseveg.com
10 CommentsPosted by - Fit Jerk - on March 24, 2009 under Articles By Section, Nutrition, Recipes
So, you just watched the video above. What did ya think... pretty gruesome? Definitely. Pretty shocking? For sure. Does it change your opinion on meat consumption? For me the answer is leaning towards no, and here's why... The info in that video is a wakeup call, no doubt, but the solution proposed by chooseveg.com is both erratic, unrealistic and quite frankly, retarded. Do they really... more. -
Mercury In Tuna – Making It Safer To Eat
5 CommentsPosted by - Fit Jerk - on March 17, 2009 under Articles By Section, Nutrition, Videos
Before our beloved fish became so contaminated with mercury, tuna was THE food to eat if you wanted to get some serious protein & healthy omega fatty acids in your eating lifestyle, all for about a $1 a can. How can you argue with that? Bodybuilders, athletes, workout moms... It didn't matter who, anyone could count on this inexpensive and healthy meat. But it seems that we've been paying a... more.
