Do you trust fitness YouTubers for your nutritional health?

No, many have different opinions. Some say not to eat carbs at all, some say not to eats fats. So, these have never been reliable source for me.

I researched on my now and identified that if you are on a fat loss diet you need to be on a calorie deficit and if you are aiming for weight gain you need to be in calorie surplus. And in both cases you need to keep your macronutrients in line. You don't need to avoid eating carbs if you are on a weight loss journey. Also, you can enjoy all the food the you want to eat unless you are on a calorie deficit.

Only if you are competing for a bodybuilding challenge, you will require a stringent diet plan to keep the macronutrients in line to achieve what is required for the competition or wise calorie deficit is all that is required too keep you in a very good shape.

My go will be to do a research than go with the YouTuber, as listening to many will only confuse someone

Thank you😊

No. Those guys have injected themselves.

I'd like a YouTuber who begins fat in our eyes and becomes what they are. Not showing the before and after photos.

That being said, it's extremely difficult and take a lot of dedication

Nutritional? Not sure. But I trust the men way more than the women in general. The women constantly lie about the work they've gotten done on their body and then claim its a result of fitness and their diet. I tend to look toward’s men for fitness/nutritional guidance

[YourFavoriteFriend]

Whaaat? Guys do the same. Do you know how many people claim they are "natural" while they do steroids?

[purplepoppy]

Show me a real nutritional qualification and a proven track record and I'll listen to what you have to say. But a YouTuber pushing a product or a fad diet no chance.

[genericname85]

absolutely no. the fitness industry is just full of lies and bullshit, cause stupid meatheads will buy anything they think will make them even more meaty.

[AndrésC64]

In general, I don't trust YouTubers for anything. There are a few good channels out there that do science. But other than that it's pretty much bullshit.

[Sonorous]

Not most. But I know a select few who are trustworthy enough to admit they're wrong when they are. And those are the ones I respect & trust the most.

[NerdInDenial]

If they present scientific findings, I will listen.

Assuming those articles weren't manipulated by corporations

[Bethany22]

I don't trust that guy just by the initial thumbnail. I'm sure others are better though. Can't generalize

[HippieVeganJewslim]

I trust Shane Sterling. He eats from a raw diet and He is quite muscular.

[ODC2112]

No, but I need more words to post, so no again.

[Phoenix98]

I trust my schooling since I went to a institution for personal training nutrition being one of many subjects I studied.

[DrBanana]

I use them as a reference point but do not use it as law.


Everyone’s needs are different.

[John_Doesnt]

I don't trust any YouTuber offering health advice.

[thorboy]

No. They act like they know me. They don't.

[Maira_Beauty_fool]

I used to trust them, then I realized that they are using us for their viewership.

[Chazmatazz269]

I haven’t trusted strangers since i was a child.
