In 1960, the company was charged with misbranding its <i>Energol Germ Oil Concentrate</i> because literature accompanying the oil claimed falsely that it could prevent or treat more than 120 diseases and conditions, including epilepsy, gallstones, and arthritis. The material was destroyed by consent decree. In 1961, fifteen other York Barbell products were seized as misbranded. In 1968, a larger number of products came under attack by the government for similar reasons. In the consent decree that settled the 1968 case, Hoffman and York Barbell agreed to stop a long list of questionable health claims for their products. In 1972, the FDA seized three types of York Barbell <a href="/wiki/Protein" title="Protein">protein</a> supplements, charging that they were misbranded with false and misleading bodybuilding claims. A few months later, the seized products were destroyed under a default decree. In 1974, the company was again charged with misbranding <i>Energol Germ Oil Concentrate</i> and protein supplements. The wheat germ oil had been claimed to be of special dietary value as a source of vigor and energy. A variety of false bodybuilding claims had been made for the protein supplements. The seized products were destroyed under a consent decree.<br /><br />Despite his many brushes with the law, Hoffman achieved considerable professional prominence. During his athletic career, first as an oarsman and then as a weightlifter, he received over six hundred trophies, certificates, and awards. He was the Olympic weightlifting coach from 1936 to 1968 and was a founding member of the President's Council on Physical Fitness and Sports. These activities helped make Hoffman a major factor in the growth of nutritional fads for athletes.</div> </td></tr> </tbody></table></span> </li> <li id="cite_note-9"><span class="mw-cite-backlink"><a href="#cite_ref-9">↑</a></span> <span class="reference-text">Or "nut roasting", as wags call it.<sup id="cite_ref-8" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-8">[5]</a></sup></span> </li> </ol></div></div> <h2><span class="mw-headline" id="References">References</span><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Broscience&action=edit&section=7" title="Edit section: References">edit</a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></h2> <div class="references-small" style="font-size:90%;"> <div class="mw-references-wrap"><ol class="references"> <li id="cite_note-1"><span class="mw-cite-backlink"><a href="#cite_ref-1">↑</a></span> <span class="reference-text"><a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://archive.is/550G1">Dumbbell flys aren't an exercise because that doesn't contain the word "bench".</a> by Dom Mazzetti Quotes (7:37 PM · Apr 17, 2013) <i>Twitter</i> (archived from 28 Aug 2015 14:50:54 UTC).</span> </li> <li id="cite_note-tolliver-2"><span class="mw-cite-backlink">↑ <sup><a href="#cite_ref-tolliver_2-0">2.0</a></sup> <sup><a href="#cite_ref-tolliver_2-1">2.1</a></sup></span> <span class="reference-text"><a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://www.huffpost.com/entry/tucker-carlson-testicle-tanning_n_625cd22ee4b0be72bff7a25f">Tucker Carlson Goes Nuts For 'Testicle Tanning' And The Internet Has Questions</a> by Jazmin Tolliver (Apr. 18, 2022, 02:24 AM EDT) <i>Huffington Post</i>.</span> </li> <li id="cite_note-4"><span class="mw-cite-backlink"><a href="#cite_ref-4">↑</a></span> <span class="reference-text"><a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://archive.fo/fAznL">Observations, and Bro-Science</a> (February 5, 2010) <i>Myosynthesis</i> (archived from 7 Jul 2013 13:02:47 UTC).</span> </li> <li id="cite_note-6"><span class="mw-cite-backlink"><a href="#cite_ref-6">↑</a></span> <span class="reference-text"><a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="http://www.quackwatch.org/04ConsumerEducation/Nonrecorg/nhf.html">Be Wary of the National Health Federation (1993)</a> by Stephen Barrett (July 15, 2012) <i>Quackwatch</i>.</span> </li> <li id="cite_note-8"><span class="mw-cite-backlink"><a href="#cite_ref-8">↑</a></span> <span class="reference-text"><a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://www.trendsmap.com/twitter/tweet/1516106234511990786">The Lincoln Project's tweet - "Quick!
