Well, the main reason for the blowout is that Brian has built his public image on the “fact” that he doesn’t take steroids. He advocates the “ancestral lifestyle” and calls himself a modern-day caveman. Additionally, he claims to eat only natural substances and meat like animal liver, lungs, and testicles. In most of his videos, he hunted the animals and consumed these organs – raw. Moreover, he also prompted his followers to quit artificial supplements and take up this natural and active lifestyle.
