Entonces parece que la moxabustan y otras “medicinas alternativas” de Asia (principalmente la Medicina Tradicional China) recibieron mucha atención después de que la gente lo vio:
¿Cuáles son las promesas?
Esto ayuda básicamente en todo, dolor, estrés, hipertensión, cualquier cosa negativa para el cuerpo humano (sin zueiras, sólo busque en sitios de pseudo-ciencia).

Somatotypes - A b*llshit that still persists
Surely you, as a sports practitioner, came across such questions: "What's your biotype? Endo? Meso? Ecto?"
This thesis on biotypes is pure BS, without any good scientific basis, but there are (still) blogs and some "professionals" who are still trying to spread. With even less decent scientific evidence, they still try to even make recommendations for each biotype, such as specific exercise to do, diets, supplements ... Let´s see how this thesis started: William Herbert Sheldon During 1940, William Herbert Sheldon, a psychologist (not a physiologist, doctor, anything like that) wanted to create body categories based on 3 fundamental elements (created by himself) called "somatotypes": Endoderm (digestive tract), ectoderm (skin and nervous system) and mesoderm (musculature, heart and blood system). How did he create these biotypes? He made visual classifications, of photos, trying to classify among these 3 biotypes. This methodology is highly criticized for being subjective (1,2,3). Not only that, Sheldon used hundreds of naked Ivy League girls, without their consent, from an old body posture assessment program. This was considered at the time as scandalous and perverted (1,4) His thesis was also considered fraudulent because: Not consider body shifting during aging (1). Consider the shape of the body were also considered signs of temperament and moral character (2). Various signs of discriminatory stereotypes and points of view (1,5). Hence this thesis is considered only an assumption, not becoming a real theory. Modern scientists consider Sheldon's claims as fraudulent, pseudo-science (2,3,4,6,7,8). As you can see, nothing about biotypes is really a fact, despite the insistence of many websites in still posting about this nonsense. Also it is possible to find classifications with dozens of mixtures between somatotypes, things like "ectomorphic endomorph" and variations of the same kind. Without any research, of course. Nevertheless, there are some researchers who want to relay and link such "somatotypes" with diseases, sports, etc. It is possible to find such research and the results are of the most varied, don´t forget that the concept itself is wrong. Do not waste your time trying to know your biotype. Read the full article

Colostrum
Colostrum, usually considered as the "first milk", produced during late pregnancy of cow (and other mammals), recently got some attention in the fitness industry for its properties (immune system and weight gain in newborns).
Sorry, wrong image. Due the nature of this secretion, it is vital to many newborns as it helps the development of the immune system and also faster weigh gain. Still, there isn´t much application for grown humans, but there are still people searching for it as if there was any benefit compared to whey protein, milk, etc. Side Effects Only if you have intolerance to lactose, since it is found on milk. Weight Gain, Performance and Fat Loss Effects were similar to whey protein or other proteins. There is no additional benefit to supplement with colostrum over other protein sources. No extra weight gain, performance or fat loss.

Gamma Oryzanol
(Not so recently) Gama Oryzanol attracted the attention of many athletes because it appears to be able to inhibit the 5α reductase type I enzyme, which usually would be a good sign to increase testosterone. Since that assumption, many test booster supplements were marketed as so. How to Take it There is no standard dosage since there is no reliable/decent positive effect found in any study. Side Effects No Side effects found so far Testosterone, GH, Strength, Power Output Until now there is no research in humans showing any improvement in testosterone. Same (null) result was observed in other animals too. Same thing for strength and power output increase.

Research: Effects of High vs. Low Protein Intake on Body Composition and Maximal Strength
Brad Schoenfeld just posted some days ago a new study about High Protein vs Low Protein in athletes:
Effects of High vs. Low Protein Intake on Body Composition and Maximal Strength in Aspiring Female Physique Athletes Engaging in an 8-Week Resistance Training Program
International journal of sport nutrition and exercise metabolism · February 2018 Abstract Aspiring female physique athletes are often encouraged to ingest relatively high levels of dietary protein in conjunction with their resistance-training programs. However, there is little to no research investigating higher vs. lower protein intakes in this population. This study examined the influence of a high vs. low protein diet in conjunction with an 8-week resistance training program in this population. Seventeen females (21.2±2.1 years; 165.1±5.1 cm; 61±6.1 kg) were randomly assigned to a high protein diet (HP: 2.5g/kg/day; n=8) or a low protein diet (LP: 0.9g/kg/day, n=9) and were assessed for body composition and maximal strength prior to and after the 8-week protein intake and exercise intervention. Fat-free mass (FFM) increased significantly more in the HP group as compared to the LP group (p=0.009), going from 47.1 ± 4.5kg to 49.2 ± 5.4kg (+2.1kg) and from 48.1 ± 2.7kg to 48.7 ± 2 (+0.6kg) in the HP and LP groups, respectively. Fat mass significantly decreased over time in the HP group (14.1 ± 3.6kg to 13.0 ± 3.3kg; p Read the full article
Athletes need more vitamins, right? right??
So here is a golden recommendation that we all hear from companies and also some professionals: "Athletes need more vitamins than the average person."
Sounds right, we indeed tend to "use" more vitamins practicing sports. But is 100% Daily Value enough? How about multi-vitamin supplements with 500%? 1000%? Well, now things come unclear. I started reading the article " Sports Nutrition Basics Part 4 – Vitamins & Minerals" from Sport-Fitness-Advisor and this subject came into my attention (I have never stopped to think about it, even when I was taking multi-vitamin supplements :( ). Here is the deal, we all know that Recommended Intake, Daily value and other measures are recommendations based on untrained people and usually a diet based on 2500kcal. Athletes (professional or just gym rats) tend to be more interested in having a better diet and consume more vitamins than sedentary people. Surely it all comes to how your diet is prepared (macros, calories, etc). Source: https://pdfs.semanticscholar.org/d26f/a93df92501ed4ea6b3e7b86e6c49f985e2ee.pdf http://www.mdpi.com/2072-6643/9/11/1266/pdf https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19917454 Considering you supposedly already reach 100% of the recommended intake for your diet, what happens if you consume another 100% (total of 200% of DV). Well, it may just make no difference at all (at least you pee will be super yellow or green, right?). Most of the vitamins offer no advantage (performance, muscle gain, fat loss) if being consumed in high dosages. So yes, considering your diet is good and taking multivitamins (making the overall consumption >100% of DV) offers no real advantage. Here are some of the ISSN conclusions about this subject: The overall review of the literature supports the viewpoint that multivitamin/mineral supplements are unnecessary for athletes or other physically active individuals who are on a well-balanced diet with adequate calories. For example, several studies have provided multivitamin/mineral supplements over prolonged periods and reported no significant effects on both laboratory and sport-specific tests of physical performance . In one of the most comprehensive studies, Telford and others evaluated the effect of long term (7–8 months) vitamin/mineral supplementation (100 to 5,000 times the RDA) on exercise performance of nationally ranked athletes in training at the Australian Institute of Sport. The athletes were tested on a variety of sport-specific tasks as well as common tests of strength, anaerobic power, and aerobic endurance. They reported no significant effect of the supplementation protocol on any measure of physical performance when compared to athletes whose vitamin and mineral RDA were met by normal dietary intake.

Los atletas necesitan más vitaminas, ¿verdad? ¿¿verdad??
Así que aquí hay una recomendación de oro que todos escuchamos de las empresas y también de algunos profesionales: “Los atletas necesitan más vitaminas que la persona promedio”. Suena bien, de hecho tendemos a “usar” más vitaminas practicando deportes. ¿Pero es 100% valor diario suficiente? ¿Qué hay de los suplementos multivitamínicos con 500%? 1000%?
