More About Fitness Informant
"FitnessInformant.com was created to provide fitness education that is easily comprehended and used for better living. All-too-often I would be researching topics and finding information on various articles influenced by outside companies and not factual information. All-too-often I would research questions I had and find articles that did not make sense. I wanted to create FitnessInforant.com to provide educational fitness articles with accurate information not influenced by any outside companies that anyone could read, understand, and most importantly, live by.
FitnessInformant.com was created to inject truth serum into the sports nutrition industry and provide honest supplement reviews and rankings. Too many cases of dishonesty are occurring in this industry. Companies use amino spiking in their protein powders to claim higher protein concentration, they claim their products contain certain ingredients that independent 3rd party testing companies are discovering to be untrue and most companies are brainwashing the fitness population with their marketing messages and package design."
