NSNG® 101

  • Around the New Year, we tend to have some new folks listening to the podcast.
  • First of all, No Sugars, No Grains.
    • What does that mean?
      • Quinoa is a grain. So is corn.
      • NO grains, not ‘healthy’ grains (no such thing).
      • Sugars include sweeteners (erithyrol, stevia, etc.)
  • We recommend fully committing for a full 60 days before trying something like french fries.
  • This is about eating real, healthy foods.
  • The goal of NSNG®  is NOT necessarily dietary ketosis.
    • It varies person to person.
      • Vinnie lives in dietary ketosis, but you don’t NEED ketosis to to be healthy and lose weight.
  • Stick to fatty cuts of meets and cruciferous veggies.
    • Main cruciferous veggies: cauliflower, broccoli, brussel sprouts, kale, bok choy, etc.
  • Olive oil, coconut oil are both good.
  • If possible, try to stick with non-factory farmed animal products.
  • If you’ve just started, ‘keto flu‘ is normal for the first little bit.
    • Make sure you’re eating lots of salt, drinking extra water.
    • It WILL pass, your body is just flushing out the bad.
    • Drinking pickle juice or bone broth can help.
  • Don’t focus on the scale. Focus on how you feel.
    • Pictures are also better than the scale.
  • Doing before/after blood work can also be good.

Setting an Example for Your Patients with Dr. Tro Kalayjian – Episode 1481

by Vinnie Tortorich

Episode 1481 –  Tro Kalayjian, DO.  joins Vinnie this Friday to talk being overweight and losing weight as a medical professional, setting an example for your patients, fasting and exercise, and more!

PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS

SETTING AN EXAMPLE FOR YOUR PATIENTS

  • Tro is a doctor.
  • Tro used to have to tell people to lose weight.
    • He, however, was 350 lbs himself at around 5’11”.
      • Now he is around 195 lbs.
  • He’s also now a runner, and he does some fasting.
    • He finished 5th recently in a 5k!
  • His wife really encouraged him to lose weight via low carb.
    • She said that he was going to die and leave her with their kids.
  • Tro has specialties in obesity, diabetes, nutrition.
  • He recognizes that the whole food part of Game Changers is real, but the plant based part is messy (at best) science.
  • He feels that setting an example for his patients is incredibly important.
  • Tro also strongly believes in fasted exercise, though it is less important than diet itself.

NUTRITION EDUCATION

  • Tro did med school, 3 years of training for internal medicine.
  • In the whole of med school, they maybe spent a week on nutrition education while learning other things.
  • The nutrition consultations that he did give, he’d say “cut sugar and fat, go see a nutritionist,” and that was it.
  • If a doctor with the best, very extensive, education can’t figure out why HE is fat, that’s a problem.
  • Most of his people start with a dirty keto approach.
    • He doesn’t think this is the best, but if it helps them, then okay!
  • He’ll teach people how to intermittently fast.

Building Muscle Without Carbs – Episode 1474

by Vinnie Tortorich

Episode 1474 – Anna Vocino and Vinnie Tortorich talk cupcakes, building muscle without carbs, the inability to outrun a bad diet, and more on this Monday show.

PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS

BUILDING MUSCLE WITHOUT CARBS

  • You do not need carbs to build muscles!
  • If you feel you get more muscular when you’re eating carbs, that’s like marbling.
    • It’s definitely not necessary, and it won’t make you lean and muscley.
  • It takes about 30 days for you to feel good working out on ketones.
    • Give your body time.
    • Plus, it will only get easier and more enjoyable as you go!

CAN’T OUTRUN A BAD DIET

  • Some people don’t get fat.
    • This is a genetic thing.
  • Don’t let them fool you into thinking you can CICO out of a bad diet.
  • You can’t simply exercise away all of the cookies.
    • Not sustainable and not healthy.
  • You can do hours and hours on end of aerobics and still be fat if you’re eating poorly.
