In this post I will answer the question on why are trans fats bad, and I will discuss some facts about them that you may not have heard of before.
I will talk a bit about the chemistry, the mechanism behind the harmful effects and how to avoid them.

Visual Impact Muscle Building Review
A few years ago, I was obsessed with gaining muscle.
I wanted to get bigger and bigger, and eventually compete in bodybuilding.
My cabinet was full of muscle building supplements, some of them right on the edge of being legal.
I had started putting up very respectable numbers in the squat and deadlift. My weight had gotten well over 200 pounds of mostly muscle, which is quite a lot considering I'm not very tall.
At first... the chicks gave me a lot of looks. Obviously I was a guy with a decent amount of muscle that took

Are bananas good for you, or bad? Banana nutrition facts
Did you know that bananas are radioactive?
Interesting bit of trivia. Doesn't really matter though since the radiation is way too small to cause harm. I'll talk about that a little more in a bit.
Anyway... in this post I am going to answer the question are bananas good for you, or bad, and explain some of the banana nutrition facts and how they affect our health.
Most people enjoy bananas. They are a fruit, so according to conventional wisdom they should be healthy. They taste sweet, and they are super-quick to eat and easy

Is Coffee bad for you, or is it good?
It is a common misconception that caffeine or coffee are genuinely harmful. I've heard it mentioned countless times how coffee raises your blood pressure and therefore is bad for the heart.
I've also read how coffee can reduce chances of awful things like type II diabetes and Parkinsons, and in this article I am going to review the evidence and answer the question Is Coffee bad for you.
