LOWERING THE BAR

  • Gina starts the show by asking Vinnie why Anna was mad, and the Tale of Two Pumpkins is born. (1:30)
    • Vinnie explains how it originated, and Gina (and Anna) is none too pleased. (5:00)
  • The conversation then switches to additional information about sugar that Gina hadn’t realized. (5:50)
  • She mentions what happens to your bowels when too much sugar is consumed, including fructose and both natural and artificial sweeteners. (6:30)
  • Vinnie mentions how they are poison to the system, similar to how alcohol works; he explains. (8:00)
  • Vinnie also tells Gina how the consumption of sugar since the 1800s has increased. (9:00)
    • They also chat about how this has led to more recent developments of NAFLD (non-alcoholic fatty liver disease).
  • He explains what A1C is, how it works, and how the numbers have ultimately been altered, which is basically lowering the bar.
    • He gives reasons why this doesn’t work, and how it allows for “stacking” medications.
  • Gina asks what a high A1C for an extended period of time will do. (18:00)
    • This leads to Vinnie summarizing the story behind Dr. Gary Fettke.
  • So at best, sugar can give you diarrhea, and at worse causes amputations. (21:50)
