I am more interested in his next post:
"Five years later and I am going to tell you how I managed to keep the lost weight off"
> I took some pills, specifically raspberry ketones, a multi-vitamin, and cod liver / fish oil. I went back and forth on these, and then decided to drop them. I may go back to the oils, but I think vitamins may be snake oil. It is hard to really tell though.
Vitamins are snake oil. Ok.
(And what the hell is a "dev aggregator" ?)
Calories in, calories out.
Abs are 90% made in the kitchen.
Go to the doctor when it hurts or feel unusual.
Agreed up until calories in, calories out. I know what you mean, but that way of thinking is quite dated. It's clear these days that the macronutrient composition of the diet also needs to be taken seriously.
Doesn't matter from a chemical perspective, because the law of conservation of energy/mass is not violated. But it is true that hormonal response makes it easier or harder to stay with a diet.
There seems to be science behind it. Fat cells die at a higher temperature than skin is damaged.
Recent vitamin research are also in line with his comments. There have been studies showing taking more than the 100% recommended daily value can increase cancer rates. So if you are getting decent nutrition from your food, lots of vitamin pills are actually bad.
