general bad health, why muscle mass is one of the keys to
longevity, why not all carbs are created equal, the impact that
anxiety has on physical health, Binge Eating Disorder and food
addiction, why stress, sleeplessness, and poor mental health are
the root factors causing obesity, how a person can develop their
will power “muscle,” why it is not too much protein but, rather,
drugs and carb cycling that causes kidney problems in the body

to build muscle, the best whole food protein sources, the
benefits of creatine, wether fasting plays well with muscle
