On today’s episode of the Angriest Trainer podcast, Vinnie Tortorich answers listener questions from Megan Meek (20) concerning consumption of dairy and eating raw and still nutritiously.
MEGAN’S JOB
- Megan works in a piercing salon
- She does not recommend gauges
- Vinnie thinks that someone without gauges would get easily hired over someone with gauges (who makes bad decision)
- Vinnie will discriminate
- The nonconformist would be the one without piercings and tattoos
WHICH FOODS SHOULD BE EATEN RAW (vegan) FOR THE BEST NUTRITIONAL VALUE?
- Vinnie thinks raw food diet is fine however it can be dangerous (low blood sugar)
- Definitely a correct way to do it — must be constantly eating to get enough
- Light steam on veggies is not a bad idea for nutrition & consumption
- Meat should be cooked for best nutritional value
WHAT ABOUT DAIRY?
- Megan is a sugar addict — when she adds generous amounts (1/4 cup) of heavy cream to coffee (1 or 2 cups), she doesn’t crave sugar or get that hungry
- How much cream is too much cream?
- Vinnie doesn’t see an issue with this
- If this is keeping Megan away from sugar and other issues, it’s ok
- Try lessening amount slightly, but if not it isn’t the end of the world
