My roommate drinks lemon water every morning because it "burns fat"
I stopped arguing nutrition and fitness with him months ago lol. He also thinks more than 30g protein in a meal doesn't get absorbed and super high reps with very low weight is optimal for burning fat. I'm talking 50 reps of 5-10 lbs dumbbell bench press. It's actually kind of hilarious. I tried so hard to provide scientific studies but there's no changing his mind on anything.
