God damn, that kind of events are not supposed to happen, not on that age. He used to follow diet choices according his genetics ive heard from his talks and quiet knew how the body responds on stimulus and what the effects would be.
He was on and promoting SMAR i believe, maybe this is a reason or a factor, not sure for how long he is been on it. RIP, good guy !

yeah, very big on fish oil too but mainly genes and how you genetically handle carbs, he was big into AAS tho so im assuming heart issues

Yeah, he had a history of heart issues associated with steroid use. Had bypass surgery in the past.

He recommended Meat and nuts, or Meat egg and nut breakfast. In a recent interview, he stated he only thinks carbs are ok once in a while , but only if you earn them.

Herman (lol), you still not a fan of fish oil? It seems to have merit for brain damage. Lot of guys big on health are advocates of it, Ben Greenfield, Mercola, Dr. Amen etc.

its always killed my libido when I used it in the past, I just eat a ton of seafood and fish though anyways
I think it miiiight depend on the kind you get too? Cuz I know krill oil has astaxanthin which is potent 5ar and also saw palmetto. I never noticed a difference from it personally though when I megadosed krill oil I would get insomnia in that I would sleep 5 hours and not get those last heavy bits of REM sleep. Which is actually what I have from pfs so I wonder if it's from that mechanism. Would only last that day though.

I think ones derived from sardines don't have that antioxidant though and a bunch of other ones too.

One day in TO, this super-intendant (I destroyed lots of places/ long story) literally talked to me about Seal Oil for 25minutes. Not sure... also heard a lot of (largely bs) about how this type is better for ADHD, this type is bad... IDK man. I don't know, used many yrs... helped joint pain at times; but not like v bad pain... maybe memory.... at times; but who can say really. Maybe mood... usually things affect me not at all or strongly... if I'm on the fence ---> probably a waste of time for me.

None hurt my libido but again - taking something that has no feasible gain for me... is a waste of time, money, and effort. And probably bad for digestion/ liver in some way.
Some say: That the fatty acids in bad fats like beef, that mess with liver and cause arteriosclerosis correspond to types of EPA/DHEA ratios or something/ I don't know, I usually tune out.

tried loads of brands thru out the years of pfs, all same result. I don't really have a need to take it anyways, most of my fats come from olive oil and grassfed butter

NICE... only two fats I kind of trust rite now is Butter and Olive Oil. I will get some NL or Swedish or Artic Butter or something... whatever Area was saying.
Icelandic butter's legit too I think.

I will say the Fish Oils did help hair and nails grow super fast like every 2 days 1.5d, I'd cut, and hair cuts every 28d, and stuff. Rite now full beard 16hrs or less with no prohormones... useless skills. Most of that is genetic tho... lots of men full hair, and dad and brother pretty strong beards. But hair cuts 7-11 d possible....
-surely that is not normal.

If you guys know him. He had some weird suggestions to things, but interesting nonetheless. Never really followed that much tho

Charles R. Poliquin, World Renowned Strength Coach, Has Died At Age 57 - BarBend

thanks for sharing. I was a fan. I like his tim ferriss interviews that's how I first found him. They should really say the cause of death but I feel like they don't want to because if it's health related it might effect the revenue streams? Maybe I'm getting too conspiratorial luckily this isn't a mainstream forum so I won't get flamed for thought crime lol.
