Dude what in all fucking hell are you talking about?! I cant stand when people talk so matter of factly out of their asses, and you have NO freaking idea what the hell you are talking about point blank!
You refer to a thread of me talking about John Meadows death and you make no sense at all. The only thing i can see is you must be wildly confused about this statement in that thread:
"I just wanted to share my thoughts if I may. John and i go back about 15 years. (As you guys probably know I make most of his supplements) and we have just talked alot and texted over the last decade and a half."
In your
wildly uninformed opinion do you know what that means above when i say "i make most of his supplements"? I own a manufacturing plant with 63 employees working around the clock 24/7/365.. John Meadows owned Granite Supplements along with his partners Jai and Dev. I make alot of Granite Supplements for them along with a bunch of other companies I make supplements for. The stuff they sell to the public like protein powders and such. I make Peri-Md which was his formula and quarterly send checks to Johns wife Mary.
So what in all hell are you going on about? John Meadows sent me his bloodwork repeatedly for me to take a look at. By and large it looked pretty darn good most of the time. He was under the care of Dr Serranno and cardiologists. End of story. What in all hell do i have to do with Johns death?! His biological father had heart attack at 33, I believe his biological mother had heart attack at 35 if I remember right. He was also vaccinated with the Johnson and Johnson Vax I believe....theres some actual facts for you to make a much better informed decisions to the shite your peddling. Thats it...I made/make alot of his supps and still send his wife checks, thats about the end of my involvement in everything. Ask Serranno or his cardiologists what happened. End of story. Dont you feel stupid now? You should to even suggest such a thing.
Conflict of interest? LOL. So you say I profit from the sale of nutritional supplements and its all about my sales interests? Anyone want to inform this guy whats up? Virtually 99% if not more of the supplements I ever recommended to people on this board or anyone I DONT EVEN SELL! Astragalus (Vitamin shoppe), Citrus Bergamot (Jarrow), just keep going down the line of what I have told people to use to fix bloodwork problems and I dont even sell the stuff. So if you want to chastise me for bringing Astragalus and Citrus Bergamot and other supplements to the attention of the bodybuilding community so Vitamin Shoppe and Jarrow can make money...Guilty as charged! I dont know anyone who works for those companies and I have never made a dime from suggesting those supps or other health supps i have recommended.
If i had a 10 dollar bill for the number of people that told me astragalus brought them back into scope from high creatinine levels I could probably retire. If i had a 10 dollar bill for the number of people who said citrus bergamot and a lot of the other supps I recommended to them brought them back into scope fully lipids wise....I could not even count. if someone wants to go the drug route and fix their kidney problems with drugs that bring on ketoacidosis in some people instead of a supplement that has repeatedly been shown to raise gfr and lower creatinine and has some properties that increases telomerase, go right ahead. If someone wants to use drugs like statins and deal with some of the side effects of those over a supplement that has shown some of the same statin like benefits to it....go right ahead.
The study up above (kind of sketchy out of Thailand with a person that has thrown about some other sketchy studies) is the FIRST one ever reported showing detrimental effects of cordyceps sinensis toward kidneys. Virtually ever other study ever reported states the exact opposite. Every study before that one study and every after that study
https://www.google.com/search?q=cordyceps+kidney+pubmed&sca_esv=597108281&source=lnt&tbs=cdr:1,cd_min:5/31/2022,cd_max:1/9/2024&tbm=#ip=1
I dont sell cordyceps sinensis. Nootropics Depot sells a legitimate brand. So if you want to chastise me for helping that company out when i dont know one person over there.....again guilty as charged.
Ever have people come to you asking for your help (desperate) because they were told by doctors that kidney dialysis was inevitable and its just a time march until they are hooked up to a machine? I have. Many many bodybuilders, especially the last 6 years or so. And to the best of my ability I have tried to help them, because what else do they have but "the inevitable" according to their specialists. I have brought every single one of them back into range except 2, those two were too far gone, with GFR of 16 and 8 respectively and creatinine so high there was no coming back, the damage was too extensive and one simply kept doing the same things that got him into kidney failure in the first place. Most of that was with Astragalus which i rate highly and i have only recommended Cordyceps Sinensis as an afterthought to many.
You know what i do when i dont know the details and ins and outs of a scenario like the bullshit you said above about John Meadows? I keep my mouth shut so i dont look like a jackass stating something that is totally untrue. But hey thats me, and how i go about things.
