Running the Asylum

After sharing thoughts about caffeine & Vinnie’s new neighbor, they discuss getting daily steps in. (3:00)
They were sent an infographic poster from “CardioSmart.” (12:00)
- It describes how much sugar people ate 100 years ago vs now—from 2 lbs per year to over 150 lbs per year, which is 3 lbs. weekly!
- Anna describes other items on the poster.
- The poster is a general infographic about sugar, but it also tells approximately how much sugar you “should” have.
- The amount suggested is low, but approximately what is found in a can of soda.
- The poster is sponsored in part by Coca-Cola.
- So the underlying message appears to be, that you can lower sugar, but still have room for soda.
- It’s not unlike Barilla Pasta sponsoring a study that says pasta is good for you.
- It appears that the inmates are running the asylum.
You can let food companies know you disapprove of their products simply by not buying them. Choose with your wallet.

The ExpoWest Experience

They explain what it is. (29:00)
They talk about premade cookies you can buy at grocery store bakeries. (33:00)
Anna shares her Expo West experience while running her Eat Happy Kitchen booth. (35:15)
- She’s been presenting to all kinds of buyers and investors who are very interested.
There was a “beanless coffee” product she tried; as a result, Vinnie explains what “Postum” is. (41:00)
It is a real challenge to be able to package good food and have it be shelf-stable. (47:00)
- Even healthy options she found still had sugars.
She had some amazing interactions overall and is looking forward to what comes of it.
She knows she has amazing products and she received all kinds of positive feedback!
Anna’s upcoming Eat Happy Italian book is on the way.

Healthy Supplements & Hurricane Ida – Episode 1921

by Vinnie Tortorich

Episode 1921 – On this Friday show, Anna and Vinnie speak with Marie Tortorich down in Louisiana, and they also talk gambling, healthy supplements, “Grain Brain”, and more.

PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS

HURRICANE IDA

Vinnie’s been receiving a ton of notes regarding his family in Louisiana.
Thank you for your kindness!
Everyone on Vinnie’s end is safe and well.
- Other families may be less fortunate.
Most shops are closed, but some are still serving the community (the local ones).
Vinnie’s mom, Marie, reports live on this show!
The Cajun Navy has been instrumental.
- Marie thinks the rest of the country should take a page out of Louisiana’s book in this respect.

HEALTHY SUPPLEMENTS

Don’t add something unhealthy to what’s supposed to make you healthy.
Many of these vitamins and supplements are filled with sugar.
They’ve built their brands on being sweet and cute and catchy — they aren’t so focused on what’s in their product.
Crazy companies like Fatty 15, Innate, and Gem really do exist.

Facing Failure And Drug-Pushing Doctors – Episode 1899

by Vinnie Tortorich

Episode 1899 – On this Monday show, Anna Vocino and Vinnie Tortorich talk facing failure, diet ad, drug-pushing doctors and autoimmune disorders, crazy nutritional guidance, and more.

PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS

FACING FAILURE

Jill Rieder is a member of the Facebook group.
She lost a lot of weight, and gained a ton back.
Now, she weighs 300 lbs.
Look for her Saturday show this upcoming Saturday.
She has faced her failure and is taking control.
- No more excuses, Jill is losing it all again.
Sometimes you have to admit you’ve screwed up to get better again.

DIET ADS

Many are BS.
Anna made up a bunch of diets and mixed them in with real ones, and they all sounded the same.
That’s how ridiculous these “diets” are!
Think “pink drink.”

DRUG-PUSHING DOCTORS

Many doctors push drugs for sicknesses or things that should be cured holistically.
Of course, some diseases need drugs.
But many can be helped with food and proper alternative treatment.
Anna believes doctors don’t test often for autoimmune disorders because they aren’t super treatable or profitable.
Listen to yesterday’s Sunday School to hear about the big business of medicine.

Radical Surgeries And Vinnie’s Neck – Episode 1898

by Vinnie Tortorich

Episode 1898 – On this Sunday School episode, Gina Grad and Vinnie Tortorich talk radical surgeries, Vinnie’s neck pain and recent doctor visit, CBD vs. hemp, and more.

PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS

RADICAL SURGERIES

Several years ago, Vinnie had an insane shoulder surgery.
It was called a ream and run surgery.
He could not sleep for decades prior to the surgery.
Vinnie was off of all painkillers after two weeks despite the doctor telling him it would be 3-6 months.
Now, Vinnie is having terrible pain again.
- This time, it’s his neck.
- The lightning bolts are in his neck and sometimes radiate up to his skull.
Vinnie is assessing the need for surgery now.
- He’s putting in the research to find an amazing surgeon, and he knows this search could take years.
Recently, Vinnie went to a doctor who simply did not help him.
- He had to wait months for the appointment, and it was completely underwhelming.
- Much of the appointment felt like a business move.

Angriest Trainer 89: Bad Moms, Suing Subway, and Protein Powders

by Vinnie Tortorich

Vinnie and Anna discuss this mom who wants her kid to lose weight at all costs. Twitter questions answered including the low down on protein powders.

Michael Tortorich sums up the podcast in the My Uncle Vinnie Blog Wrap Up:

Vinnie and Anna lead this show off delving into Dara-Lynn Weiss, the mom who put her 7-year-old daughter on a diet. Vinnie predicts a rough life ahead for the girl. “We could spend the whole time on this article,” he says. They then move into discussion of shaming to force weight loss. “Nobody wants to be fat,” Vinnie says. Anna and Vinnie then get into listener questions, starting with the importance of sleep. They move on to discussion of Subway, which presents itself as a healthy food choice.
