Questioning the Reasons

  • Vinnie is learning a lot about making kombucha. (3:00)
    • He has discovered that he can reduce the sugar in it and still maintain great flavor.
  • Reasons for women losing weight slower than men, even on a ketogenic diet. (9:00)
    • Frontiers in Nutrition gathered the metadata, and this is what they found.
    • Testosterone makes it easier to mobilize fat.
    • Variations in the hormonal biochemistry occur in most women, making losing weight a larger challenge. (15:00)
      • Low-carb/keto still works for women, but can be at a different rate, so consistency is key.
  • Lab-grown meat. (21:00)
    • They discuss the difference between lab-grown and fake meat (like Impossible Burger).
    • They discuss the marketing and messaging behind the motivation. 
    • Climate change is a motivation, and they discuss inconsistencies in the argument. (28:00)
    • Lab-grown meat still contains chemicals and would challenge the environment for different reasons. (37:00)
    • The definition of an “ultra-processed” food: lab-grown and imitation meat qualify as this.
    • You can watch Vinnie’s documentary “Beyond Impossible” to learn more. (42:00)
  • Fitness trackers. Vinnie isn’t always a huge fan, but if it keeps people active and cognizant of their goals, he’s fine with them. (44:00)
    • The unfortunate thing is that they are not always accurate.
      • They don’t always work well for obese people, and the algorithm was designed based on thin, healthier people. (46:00)
    • Don’t get mad at the companies, just don’t make yourself dependent on trackers. Rely on yourself!
      • They discuss examples of what they mean by this.
      • It’s also not great to become obsessed with the data. That can have its downside as well. (53:00)
