The Things That Compel You

  • Continuing the conversation from an earlier episode regarding food addiction and GLP-1s. (2:30)
    • How the hormones leptin, ghrelin, cortisol, and insulin work. (6:30)
    • The body can become resistant to these hormones and create hunger even when your stomach is full.
  • Teresa shares news regarding levels of chemicals in certain foods, including dark chocolate. (17:00)
  • Vinnie advises athletes on what to do to bulk up. (22:00)
    • You cannot “pump” fat; you can only “pump” muscle. Athletes need lean muscle, not fat. (23:30)
    • Vinnie doesn’t always advise protein powders, but there are a couple that may help with goals. (27:30)
  • Creatine can help, too, but there are some caveats. (30:00)
    • More is not better; if too much is taken over time, the body will downregulate and not produce its own.
    • Other sources that have creatine are red meat and eggs.
    • Creatine can also help with hydration, brain function, and other benefits.
  • Teresa has a book called “Making It Home,” which is in Vinnie’s Book Club. https://www.amazon.com/dp/0593546083/
    • Teresa shares how Cal Ripken Jr came to endorse her book, “Making It Home.” (39:00)

 

  • Dirty Keto is officially released on Amazon! (27:30) https://amzn.to/4d9agj1 
    • It’s listed under “Special Interest” with a PG-13 rating.
    • There is nothing in it to have earned a PG-13 rating—it’s family-friendly.
