All the Feels

  • Humans have an emotional recall with music and food. (2:00)
    • An example is pumpkin spice around Thanksgiving.
    • It can work in reverse, too: people can have an aversion to junk food after being NSNG® for a while.
    • They discuss other methods that are used to enable or modify behavior, from marketing tactics to “people movers” in Vegas.
  • Chris doesn’t miss air conditioning since he’s been living out of the country. (12:00)
  • They switch to discussing the importance of getting a proper vitamin intake.

Vitamins 101

  • Why electrolytes?
    • Almost everyone is at some level of hydration. (16:00)
    • But there is such a thing as over-hydration, which can cause hyponatremia, or low sodium levels in the blood. (18:00)
    • So many people are afraid of salt, but they don’t necessarily need to be. (22:00)
    • Salt is needed by the body as part of its functioning.
    • Sweating, even only small amounts, and exhaling cause you to lose electrolytes. (25:00)
    • You should take them, especially if you are active.
  • Multi-vitamins: Do you really need them?
    • Yes, it’s difficult to get a good range of vitamins from food only—it’s a daily insurance plan.
    • Vinnie shares why he has a separate B12 in addition to B vitamins in the multivitamin. (37:00)
    • Some brands don’t break down in your stomach properly due to some of the ingredients. (44:00)
    • Other brands often use the synthetic, or non-absorbable, versions of vitamins. (46:00)
  • Magnesium
    • Most people are deficient in magnesium. It can help with how you feel and how you sleep. (47:30)
    • Certain varieties of magnesium can cause a laxative effect if you consume too much.
    • Pure Vitamin Club uses a broader spectrum of magnesium. (50:00)
