Hi, I’m Manders 👋🏼 I love working out and sharing health/fitness with you..but you know what I love even more? Teaching people how to advocate for themselves and navigate the unregulated (and often misleading) part of the fitness and nutrition industry.
I believe in science, not scams. And I’m sick and tired of seeing the ✨popular✨people throwing around words like:
Inflammation
Gut health
“Hormone balancing”
Fat burning
Clean eating
Without truly understanding what it is they’re saying/promoting. And don’t even get me starting about people practicing out of their scope 🙄
So the next time you see a tiktok of someone wanting you to sign up with them (or buy a product) so you can “heal your inflammation & balance your gut”, ask them if they’re referring to acute inflammation & if they know what their blood CRP level is. Ask them how they can prove that their GuT iS bAlAnCEd 🤔 ask for that research. Don’t be afraid to ask for those credentials! “Almost an ___” isn’t the same as having the title. And if that’s important to you, you have the right to know as a client.
I certainly don’t know it all, or have ever claimed to be something I’m not..but I AM truly passionate about helping people debunk the myths and fads that are ever-changing in this industry. I want to help people live their healthiest lives without fear of food while improving their relationship with their bodies. And a lot of times, providing people with scientific evidence about how something works (or doesn’t work) is a good starting point.
Not throwing around buzz words.
Not food shaming.
Not falsifying titles or promising that certain supplements do things they don’t.
So thanks for being here 🤍 I hope I can help you throughout your journey in some way. I’m always happy to have conversations about any of this - and will continue to practice within my scope while providing as much value as possible. blackironnutrition #blackironnutrition #sciencebasedntp
