An Addendum to Paul’s Metabosyn Review…
I’ve been pretty busy lately, so I haven’t kept up with the newest material on the main domain. But I had some extra time today, so I thought I’d take a look. There’s some good stuff there (kudos to Paul and Sumi!). I was especially amused by Paul’s Metabosyn review. The review itself wasn’t funny, but whenever I see the address, 3165 Millrock Dr. Ste 500, SLC Utah, my eyes start to spontaneously...
Too Funny…
While sipping my a.m. coffee, I stumbled on over an article from The League of Ordinary Gentlemen, about a blogger who thinks he’s invented the perfect alternative to food. Yes… you read that right. An alternative to food. SRSLY. The author of the “League” article, Russell Saunders, is a pediatrician, so he knows a thing or two about human physiology, nutritional needs, blood tests and… medical food...
They Don’t Warn ‘Loud” Enough, Methinks…
If there’s one thing we see here on UltimateFatBurner.com time and time again, it is consumers falling victim to scams… mostly of the weight loss kind (not surprising, given the subject matter we cover). That notwithstanding, this recent warning posted by the U.S. FDA says it all; “weight-loss products are among the most notorious items that have been found to make deceptive claims and pose health risks.” Check...
Toxins… not “Toxins”
D’ya think the food we eat is filled with toxins? If so, this Guardian article, “I survived the deadliest meal in the world,” should disabuse you of this notion. If they really were, you’d probably be dead. đ It’s a mildly amusing tale of a charity banquet, but it resonated with me on two levels… Sympathy: I spent years intermittently enduring my mother-in-law’s cooking, so I know what...
Vibrational HCG… Really?!
Over the weekend, I surfed over to Science-Based Medicine, and scanned this post by pharmacist Scott Gavura about HCG and weight loss. It’s a well-written article, although if you’ve seen what Paul and I have had to say on the topic, in general, you won’t see much that’s new. There was one thing in his article, however, that took me by surprise. It was inserted into a paragraph about the FDA crackdown on...
Boiron Settles Lawsuit for $5 Million
This video has been making the rounds… I really don’t have the heart to make fun of these folks. But seriously: so many random patterns occur in nature, it’s not the least bit surprising that some of them make “sense” to human minds. The phenomenon is so common its been given a name: pareidolia. Personally, I’ve seen tons of “faces” and familar shapes in cottage cheese ceilings, ripple...
