Latest Study Shows that a 3.3 g/kg High-Protein Diet is Safe -- And Yes, This Means it Doesn't Hurt Your Kidney or Liver In his latest SuppVersity guest post, my friend Alex Leaf (leaf-nutrition.com) summarizes the results of Jose Antonio's latest and first long-term high protein diet study ... and yes, that's "high protein" as in 3-4x more than the RDA of 0.8g/kg

Bodybuilding cures type II diabetes. Really. A review paper by Shakoor et al. (2021) concluded that the combination of aggressive cutting with high-frequency exercise is one of the most effective methods to cure type II diabetes, one of the top 10 leading causes of death in the world. Full remission of diabetes has been found in as little as 8 weeks(!)⁣

Note that I'm using the word 'cure' here in the colloquial sense of a permanent remission of symptoms.

Many doctors are still stuck in the pharmaceutical age and think diabetes is irreversible. Nothing could be further from the truth. Lean, muscular, strength training individuals with normal genetics have almost no chance of becoming diabetic. ⁣

Many people think bodybuilding is unhealthy, but that's only true for drug users (depending on how medically responsible they are) and maybe the last stages of contest prep. ⁣

Natural recreational bodybuilding has enormous health benefits. In addition to the vast array of health benefits of exercise itself, being lean and muscular enhances your insulin sensitivity enormously, which in turn lowers chronic inflammation levels. Good glucose, insulin and inflammation levels in turn lower your chances of almost every other health condition.⁣
