by Vinnie Tortorich

: Episode 1276 – The amazing Nina Teicholz joins Vinnie this Friday once again and the two talk keto crotch, heart arrhythmia myths, the benefits of eating meat and environmental concerns, Nina’s work in journalism, and more in this fantastic episode.

PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS

NINA TEICHOLZ

Nina is a top journalist who works in the realm of health and fitness
She has been on this show a number of times
- Check out her most recent appearance here
Why does she do this?
- It’s not about the money
- Principally, for her, it’s about uncovering the truth
- The lies in health have such a huge, horrible impact
  - Nina wants to get rid of that
- One of the most important issues to work on
Nina is a huge part of Fat Doc

KETO CROTCH

Nina has analyzed the evidence behind these claims
Claims are about how eating keto can make you smell bad down there
There were 30 stories on major sites in 8 days
This came out of NOWHERE
These lies are also pretty awful for women
- Can discourage people from going for a healthy diet due to (wrongly-founded) fear of embarrassment
- All playing on insecurities – this makes this campaign particularly malicious
Nina & colleagues believe this lie is generated by a PR company who represents someone like WW, or something like that
Does not come from any science whatsoever

ARRHYTHMIA MYTHS

There is a new myth saying keto causes heart arrhythmias
Press release came out about an UNpublished UNpeer reviewed study
The study has not even been presented yet
Completely BS – should not even be talked about yet
A truly terrible study

by Vinnie Tortorich

: Episode 1207 – The wonderful Katherine Spiers, food writer, joins Vinnie this Saturday to talk being a critic, customized orders for food, unhealthy carbohydrates, and more on this episode.

PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS

KATHERINE SPIERS

Katherine is a food writer
Has written for huge news companies
Check out her podcast here
Participated in the Guacamole Fest
She is not a food critic every time she eats anything
- She can turn it on or off
Doesn’t often make it out to the valley where Vinnie lives

CUSTOMIZED ORDERS

Vinnie often customizes food to make it NSNG^®
In Katherine’s experience, many customize their orders and are disappointed by the result
- Then, they send it back and would much rather enjoy the original
Vinnie lives in dietary ketosis
- Rarely goes off of this way of eating, even when out to eat
Carbs DO NOT help you lose weight
- They are what you eat to gain girth
The food pyramid is wild
Government nutritional guidelines are to get us to buy certain things
