Nutrition is kind of like economics. It's not clear at all what the right answer is, but there are clearly some wrong answers (Refined sugar, communism).
Scheif is always looking for that extra bit of competitive edge, right? He's eating well and eating what makes him feel good and feel sharp. Of course he'll take it past what might seem necessary to most people. That nerdiness is part of what makes him great!
i am looking into doing something like this also! how long did it take to get over the hunger and what supplements do u need? 15 days .. impressiveWell the negativity is high this morning...
As far as I am concerned what ever helps any Winnipeg Jets feel better and stronger is fine by me...
Go Sheifele Go
On a personal note I am currently on day 15 of a water fast (no food) and I feel great I also quit smoking since it can literally kill you after day 5 when fasting and quitting smoking while fasting was easy...
Maybe but I’m not one to judge. If I ate the way that kid does it’d be a vast improvement and as long as he ain’t having a smoke and donut while using the stationary bike after the game what’s the diffThere's a difference between being nerdy and being gullible.
Sounds like Schiefele is largely eating a plant-based diet. I've been vegan for 3 years. I'm a 55-year old amateur bodybuilder and have never felt stronger or had more stamina (in every way you can imagine...no little blue pills required) Don't believe this works?

Sip and Eyeseeing are on the see food diet.
Works for us old fogies.
Cilantro enhances the caloric intake.
High performing athletes should eat clean that’s not wrong
Nice try. Bot? Read my posts. Educate yourself before making a comment like that. Just sharing my experience. And from the article, he has introduced more plant-based food into his diet. Science supports the benefits. Chose to ignore if you want I don't give a flying fork. It was the best decision I've ever made for my health. Cheers!Is this a propaganda bot? Scheifele himself said that his diet Contains plenty of meat.
Doing the right things for wrong reasons. A little bit. Kinda. He's eating good stuff, no problems. All that toxin stuff is silly though.
Lotsa supposed nutritionist on twitter questioning the practices of an actual professional, which find hilarious.
The staple of his diet is to eat healthy non processed food high in nutritional value. Nothing out of the ordinary here, and nothing but positives for a young player to follow a healthy diet as religiously as he does.
If he believes certain ingredients work better with his biological makeup than others, and feels a difference in his energy, than its real to him and who are we to judge?
There have been hundreds of nutritional diets pimped out as the defacto diets to follow, over the past decade, each a variation of another. I find it funny that some are adamantly blasting Scheif for talking about his, as though he is way off in left field.
There’s a lot of actual nutrition experts hat will point that Scheifele is falling for a lot of flat earth, anti vaccine, type pseudo science.
Dr Mike Israetel and Dr Brad Schoenfeld are two experts I’d suggest looking up. Their life research is debunking and discovering what actually optimizes athletic performance. Much of the debunking is on things Scheifele has fallen for.
As an aside: I know New Jersey Devils have used Dr Schoenfeld to speak to their team.

When we say he is falling for pseudoscience, are we implying he is actually doing something negative to his body, or that it might not have as high of a positive impact as he believes?
If the latter, is that a negative?
I do not believe any of his nutritional beliefs are unhealthy or extreme. I also have seen and heard hundreds of variations of the best nutritional plans over the years, everyone has its supporters and detractors. They all have been proven and disproven over the years.
Not saying your suggested doctors arent legit, but there seems to be more than one way to skin a cat when it comes to the science of nutrition.
So Scheifele, is more fit than 100% of posters here. He is consistently within the top couple most fit Jets. Reading through the article nothing was extreme or unusual and from what I could tell he hits on all necessary food items in a natural and unprocessed way, and I'm guessing he has optimal levels of all necessary nutrients. Would we prefer he eat Cheetos for breakfast and down a fatboy and fries with a coke at lunch and then order an extra cheese pizza and a 6 pack for supper? Who cares if he does a genetic test for foods he believes his body digests best? And some people do genetic tests on the mutt they get from a rescue shelter.
I understand your point though I think it is over stated. There is nothing Sheifele does nutritionally that isn't healthy. The vast majority of people would be far better to spend a few hundred dollars on a genetics test and stay away from the foods flagged then continue with their current diet. There is actually some validity to genetic testing, but it is far more complex with too many variables to be of much use to most people. Other then for the physiological benefit that most people are more likely to stick to a healthy eating regime if they believe it has been optimized for them individually.Scheifele has money to waste and he is free to do what he pleases. His diet is not free from criticism however. Some of the stuff he does is just as effective as homeopathy or going to a psychic to tell him what foods he should or should not eat.
For me personally, this has less to do with Scheifele and more to do with the influence this might have on others. This just adds to the mass misinformation when it comes to health and people might actually buy into this and spend large amounts of money that they might not have or would be better spent elsewhere.
Falling for pseudoscience as in doing things for reasons that don’t actually exist. Lemons don’t detox you. Your body doesn’t stop digesting food after a certain time. These testible facts.
Many diet fads have come and gone yes, but mostly all for the same reason... paleo, Atkins, zone, vegan, gluten free... they all ended up causing people to lose weight because the restrictions in their diet caused them to eat fewer calories.
When you look for one study, yes you can find some odd things... but when you look at larger meta analysis of multiple research consensus and patterns arise.
PFFFT! Bunch of fools all of you!
I am now off to the grocery store to begin my journey on Gwyneth Paltrow's diet. Wish me and my wallet good luck!
I thought Scheifele’s diet had the staples of a smart diet. Natural ingredients, fresh veggies and fruits, and necessary protein. The bells and whistles he spoke about are neither a positive or negative.
Is drinking water with lemon at all negaitive to your body? Is refraining from eating later in the evening a bad thing?
Both are healthy things for you, aka hydration and healthy sleeping (proven large meals prior to sleeping will have negative effects on sleep).
To me, if it also provides a placebo effect that has a positive influence on their body, there is no harm in it. His detail to a positive diet is the most important factor here.
