Vadim Nemkov reveals kidney issues affected 2022 Anderson loss, now drug-free

Vadim Nemkov disclosed he suffered kidney problems in 2022 that severely impacted his cardio in his first fight with Corey Anderson. He experienced extreme fatigue after just one round in sparring and competition. After the loss, Nemkov traveled to Thailand and found a legal pharmaceutical solution that restored his health. He has since eliminated all sports supplements from his diet due to kidney concerns. Nemkov now only uses basic vitamins like omega-3, fish oil, magnesium, and vitamin B. The fighter states he does not feel worse without protein, creatine, or BCAAs as long as his nutrition and sleep are optimized.
