It’s in the Blood: When it Rains it Pours
It’s in the Blood: When it Rains it Pours The recent article Paleo and Testosterone spiked a huge comment response regarding the intricacies of nutrition, training, lifestyle, supplements and hormones.

Testimonial: “I’ve officially lost over half of my original body weight.”

As I kept my body happy with coconut oil, grass-fed beef, vegetables and all the other paleo goodies, there was still a little voice in the back of my head saying, “what if this is bad?” I’d always had… Continue Reading
