  • 8 min read

What the hell is a part-time vegan? Lol. Apparently, there are folks who secretly drink milk, eat meat, wear leather and, maybe, also hunt, but they’re vegans for the cameras. Since when is being vegan such a sought after dietary preference? Well, since Subway, Burger King, and even Kentucky Fried Chicken rolled out plant-based options.

Milk thistle, also known as Silybum marianum, is a common yet not so popular plant. It is native to Southern Europe and Asia and has various medicinal properties, and is commonly used in the US in the form of milk thistle supplements.

Flex Lewis does not need to compete. His legacy is beyond reproach – it’s held in the highest regard, by fans, the industry, and competitors -both amateur and pro, active and retired. Yamamoto isn’t asking him to compete. Monster could care less. Lewis isn’t hard-up for cash.

It’s become well known that Flexatron had suffered a heart attack before the one which he succumbed to, and it was also well known that the family had declined doing an autopsy.

I have said it so many times, that what’s one more time, right? You guys know me, I don’t like writing articles about death. I will, of course, cover the passing of great athletes in our sport, out of respect. Beyond that, I’m not the type of writer to recycle stories and milk tragedies to get hits. I don’t get down like that, nor does Iron Magazine. This article, however, speaks to the abysmally poor quality of bodybuilding “journalism,” today.

Snacking (in a healthy manner) is an essential part of a balanced diet. While we try to eat our typical meals throughout the day, life gets in the way. We may work odd hours or be caught waiting for a train or plane when traveling. A delicious, healthy snack will help you out in these situations, as well as be perfect if you’re trying to lead a healthier lifestyle but are always on the go. You could choose to hit up the vending machine, but that won’t really satisfy your hunger or be a healthy option if you’re trying to lose weight.
