Unhealthy Doctors & Kevin’s Story – Episode 1827

by Vinnie Tortorich

Episode 1827 – On this Saturday show, Kevin Biggs joins Vinnie to talk Kevin’s NSNG® story, reprogramming your brain for your health, unhealthy doctors, advocating for yourself, and more.

PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS

KEVIN’S STORY

  • Kevin found Vinnie through Gina Grad.
    • He was a big fan of hers.
  • In 2015, prior to starting this lifestyle, he had a very small stroke and realized he had to figure stuff out.
  • When Kevin saw Gina lose weight, he dove into NSNG®.
    • He had tried juicing, calorie restriction, nothing worked.
  • Kevin had always been a big food guy so preparing food wouldn’t be an issue. It was more about reprogramming his brain.
  • He’s also really big on the Facebook group!

UNHEALTHY DOCTORS

  • Kevin is really frustrated by unhealthy doctor’s offices.
    • So is Vinnie – it’s hard to see candy in doctor’s offices.
  • His doctor saw his numbers improve and still told him not to eat low carb high fat.
  • He’s wary of this sort of advice now.
  • However, do consult with your doctor, and shop around for doctors because there are doctors who understand the benefits of this way of eating.
  • Advocating for yourself is very important.

Red Meat And Heart Health – Episode 1826

by Vinnie Tortorich

Episode 1826 – On this Friday show, Anna Vocino joins Vinnie Tortorich and the two talk grain free dog food, red meat and heart health, cholesterol, statins, protein after lifting, and more, and Marie makes a guest appearance.

PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS

GRAIN FREE DOG FOOD

  • Lots of people have moved away from grain free food.
  • There have been studies that suggest grain free food can cause heart problems.
  • Anna’s vet told her these studies are questionable.
    • They were funded by Purina.
  • Her dogs have other issues with food with grain, so with her vet’s OK, she put her dogs back on grain free food.
  • Vegan diets for animals are, in Vinnie’s view, animal abuse.
    • Dogs don’t get to make the choice like people.
    • Unlike humans, who are omnivores, dogs are carnivores.

RED MEAT AND HEART HEALTH

  • Vinnie has red meat every day.
  • He has lots of saturated fats.
  • Red meat will not give you dangerously high cholesterol.
  • If you’re worried about your cholesterol, get a panel and someone who really understands all the numbers to properly interpret it.
  • When people start this lifestyle, their overall cholesterol may go up, but their GOOD cholesterol is what goes up and the bad cholesterol goes down.
  • If you don’t eat enough cholesterol, your body will make it.
  • Doctors seriously overprescribe statins.
  • This is a great reason to stay on top of your bloodwork. 
  • There are also supplements that can promote good heart health.
  • Neither Vinnie nor Anna have lots of plaque, because red meat on its own does not cause this.

Keeping NSNG® Simple – Episode 1824

by Vinnie Tortorich

Episode 1824 – On this Monday show, Anna Vocino and Vinnie Tortorich talk old and new cars, keeping NSNG® simple, temporary veganism, salt’s wrongly bad rep, how exercise should not be painful, and more, and the two welcome a special guest!

PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS

KEEPING NSNG® SIMPLE

  • If people plateau, they try to trick their bodies.
  • Vinnie says make sure you’re clean, then just stick to it.
  • Don’t try to eat this way and also starve yourself.
  • You CAN try intermittent fasting, but Vinnie doesn’t personally recommend it for most.
  • Stay the course and keep it simple and clean.

SALT’S BAD REP

  • Salt should not have such a bad reputation.
  • The science that says salt is bad is just wrong.
  • Salt is good for you.
  • When you start this way of eating, make sure you’re getting enough salt.
  • If you feel bad at the beginning, supplement with a spoonful or two of salt.
