Wow he kept it up for 15 MONTHS knowing that the claims were false.
Fuck around and find out
That about sums it up.
TONS of other brands impacted too. Consumers end up anxious and misled from fear-bait content given without context.

No, you read it wrong or this is AI slop. The 3x variance was BETWEEN pairs not WITHIN pairs
Try again
pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/2336…
Bouchard 1990 shows how wide that range is: 12 pairs of identical twins were overfed the same 1,000 kcal/day for 84 days. Gains ran 4.3 to 13.3 kg, with ~3x more variation between pairs than within them. Same surplus, different results, and genes help explain it. (PMID 2336074)

Obesity is unhealthy
Obesity is caused by consuming more calories than expended over time
Genetics, environment, trauma, and upbringing can all impact how well we regulate appetite
This makes some more obese prone than others
Shaming people for obesity isn’t helpful
All these facts can co-exist
Oat milk, inflammation, and cortisol aren’t why you can’t lose weight
You can’t lose weight because you consume more calories than you expend over a given period of time
I’m not saying you’re lazy. I’m not saying it’s all your fault either. Genetics, trauma, & food environment all make things more difficult to control intake
But we can’t improve things if we don’t live in reality. Delusion helps no one
For anyone feeling bad for Oasis and their founder…
Oasis published incorrect data about lead levels in LMNT
LMNT walked Oasis through the calculations & they agreed he got it wrong
He proceeded to NOT take down the original posts and left them up for MONTHS
Had he removed them immediately after being made aware of his error, I doubt this lawsuit happens
The sequence gives the suit clear merit on core elements. Oasis posted false lead numbers in Dec 2024, privately agreed the correct math with LMNT in Feb 2025, then left the claims and low scores up for 15+ months. That post-knowledge delay supplies the actual-malice showing needed for trade libel and bolsters the defamation plus Lanham Act counts. The $255 m ask is aspirational and still requires proof of specific lost sales, but the falsity and injunction requests rest on solid ground.
Probably the electrolytes that my company sells. I’m obviously terrible at marketing

You’re making a big assumption. I sued someone for defamation 13 years ago and won, and during that time the dude posted about it constantly, threatened my attorneys, and did pretty much everything an attorney would tell you not to do. I think you underestimate how many mental problems many of these influencers have
I'm starting to believe it's bullshit to get more attention to himself, as he posted this back in August as well. Any attorney would have directed him to stop, especially since (if the lawsuit is real) they are going against Quinn Emanuel. That's not a firm you mess around with.

Overpriced and their “sugar free” marketing bothers me since electrolyte research shows they work better when include a small amount of glucose
They act like “sugar free” is a feature, when in reality they are advertising something that makes it less effective
But they aren’t the only ones and no one gives a shit about research anyway
Imagine boo hooing getting sued when you’ve straight up made up bullshit that has damaged companies.
I’m not a big LMNT fan, but I for one am glad to see people who are full of shit beginning to experience consequences for their actions
Hot take that shouldn’t be a hot take:
Substituting cane sugar in place of high fructose corn syrup will do NOTHING
It’s not going to improve any measurable health outcome (we already have this data)
And if you say “well it tastes better”
That means people are more likely to overconsume it and it will be WORSE for human health than HFCS
File this under the category of shit companies & politicians do to get attention that actually does F*** ALL
Fat Burning is NOT the same thing as losing body fat
You've been led to believe they are the same by influencers in order to sell you:
-Low Carb Diets
-Fat Burners
-Fasted Cardio
And a variety of other things
Fat burning is PART of losing body fat, but it doesn't tell the full story
Actual changes in body fat is a balance between the amount of fat you store vs. the amount of fat you burn
Fat burning > Fat storage = Lose body fat
Fat burning < Fat storage = Gain body fat
Fat burning = Fat storage = No change in body fat
It is the NET flux across fat cells aka 'fat balance' that determines the loss or gain of body fat
Allow me to break down why understanding this is so important when evaluating claims
There is no way around the work. Most people spend more time, energy, and money trying to 'biohack' their way around the work
The ironic thing is... they spend more time, energy, and money trying to find a short cut than it would take if they just did the f***ing work
The magic you are looking for is in the WORK you keep attempting to avoid
It's also what lines the pockets of the grifters who are all too ready to sell you a magic solution that avoids the work
Don't buy into that bullshit. Do the work
You mean I want objective empircal evidence when I make decisions and claims?
Yea that's fucking wild huh?
What's weak is thinking the person is more important than the claim.
You obsess over the person because you can't actually debate information... You got no knowledge. You've never figured out anything on your own.
You need papers and other people to tell you what's what. Weak

You continue to highlight you complete lack of understanding of basic scientific principles.
The existence of god is not a falsifiable hypothesis. Therefore, it does not fall into the same standards. It is called 'belief' because it requires believing in the absence of evidence. That is what faith is all about.
Good scientists should not have 'beliefs' when it comes to research. They have hypothesis that are supported by data or they do not.
I say this as a scientist who believes in god. I believe in spite of a lack of empirical proof. I do not need 'beliefs' for topics to which data exists.
I hope this helps you but I doubt it

Which nutrients? Compared to what?
I am a fan of high quality animal protein but buzzwords like “nutrient dense” get spewed all the time and no one actually gives objective data
Because you only care about buzzwords
Yea so that’s cool other than the fact that they are… you know FUCKING BEARS and all
I’m ready for the aliens. I don’t want to live on this planet anymore 🤣😭
Hibernating brown bears have roughly double the cholesterol and triglycerides of healthy humans—yet show no atherosclerosis or heart disease.
During winter hibernation, free-ranging brown bears (Ursus arctos) experience plasma cholesterol levels around 12 mmol/L (versus ~5 mmol/L in humans) and elevated triglycerides, along with obesity, physical inactivity for months, and other metabolic stressors that would typically promote vascular disease in humans.
Histopathology of coronary arteries and aortic arches from adult bears has repeatedly shown no fatty streaks, foam cell infiltration, inflammation, or atherosclerotic lesions—even in animals that have lived through multiple hibernation cycles.
Key protective mechanisms identified in research include:
• LDL particles that are larger and have 5–10× lower affinity for arterial proteoglycans (the binding that helps drive plaque formation in humans)
• Higher plasma cholesterol efflux capacity
• Stabilized or more cardioprotective HDL composition (including increased HDL2b)
• Greater antioxidant capacity and reduced inflammatory/oxidative markers during hibernation
These findings come from multiple studies on Scandinavian brown bears, including work in Scientific Reports, the Journal of Lipid Research, and related papers.
The takeaway is straightforward: high circulating cholesterol and triglycerides do not automatically produce atherosclerosis. Context—lipoprotein structure, function, inflammatory status, and overall metabolic handling—matters. Bears offer a natural model of high lipids without the expected vascular damage.
Yes of course I want attention. I’m just not willing to lie or do performative bullshit to get it. Trust me, I could get a lot more views if I had no morals
Sure but objectively every time you post on here its for attention. You have become an influencer so you are no different. Ever heard of the pot and the kettle?
