How to Approach Thanksgiving

  • Thanksgiving is right around the corner.
    • Vinnie is headed home for the holidays.
  • Vinnie typically gives two suggestions for Thanksgiving and Christmas. (10:10)
    • Plan to eat judiciously, and do not take leftovers home.
    • The other is to eat what you enjoy and move on—do not let this one meal turn into multiple meals.
    • It depends on where you are in your journey as to which approach you choose. (11:40)
  • High-fat diets are the secret to keeping your brain young. (27:00)
    • Things like eating coconut oil can help.

  • “Exercise in a pill”? (32:00)
    • There may be benefits for a limited few, but the side effects are sure to be horrible.
    • If you don’t change your ways, your life will not improve. You have to change your habits! (40:00)

LOOKING FOR CHEATS

  • At the time of this episode, Anna’s Eat Happy Kitchen spices are on sale for a short time. Use code BOGO25.
  • Vinnie has been screaming about the harm that certain carbs can do for years. (2:00) 
  • He explains how a glucose spike and a glycemic load happen in the body, which can lead to insulin resistance. (6:30)
    • The information dieticians have been giving about complex carbs has been misleading.
  • Marketing agencies have been able to use buzzwords on products that only cause confusion. (9:30)
    • For example, “gluten-free” and “gluten-friendly.”
    • “Gluten-friendly” doesn’t mean anything, and gluten-free doesn’t mean low-carb. 
    • People think that their food needs to be “fortified.” (12:00)
    • If you have cheese, you already have protein; you don’t need to “fortify” cheese; however, people are always looking for cheats or shortcuts.
  • Anna reads comments from the sugar industry about RFK Jr.’s recent comments about sugar being poison. 
    • She is trying to effect change by bringing healthy products and yummy recipes to *everyone*. (18:00)
    • She reads the response from the sugar industry’s Courtney Gaine, PhD; his claim of sugar consumption being the lowest ever is outright bullsh*t. (21:15)
    • During the Lincoln administration, the average sugar consumption per person, per year, was approximately one pound; however, current estimates are at 150 lbs per person, per year. (23:15)
    • Some research estimates up to 350 lbs per year!
  • Jennifer is joining the show to discuss how she came up with a *year-long* dinner meal plan. (32:00)
    • Almost no meal is repeated!
    • Anna and Vinnie ask her for a breakdown on how she plans it–it’s amazing, but she wants to make her plan NSNG® friendly.

Black Friday and Holiday Foods – Episode 1981

by Vinnie Tortorich

Episode 1981 – On this special Black Friday show, Anna Vocino and Vinnie Tortorich talk holiday foods, getting back on track, the munchies, and more.

PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS

BLACK FRIDAY

  • This is the beginning of every company trying to make it for the year.
  • Take advantage of sweet deals — or spend time with your family at home and order online.
  • Serena does the Christmas shopping during this time.
    • Vinnie frets and overspends; Serena knows what to do!

HOLIDAY FOODS

  • We understand many of you will eat something carby or sweet over the holidays.
  • That’s okay, but get right back on the wagon.
  • Don’t tell yourself, “well, I’ll just wait until after the Christmas party.”
  • If you have leftovers, eat them quickly or send your guests home with these foods.
  • We’re never more brilliant than when we’re justifying bad behavior — so try to be very aware of this over the next month.
    • Don’t even allow the single rationalization to take place.
  • Also, if you feel yourself looking for a little snack, realize your hormones may be messed up or you might have over-imbibed. 
    • Have something fatty and get back on track.

FAT DOC 2 IS AVAILABLE ON iTUNES and AMAZON

  • Please also share it with family and friends!
  • Buy it and watch it now on iTunes to get it to the top of the charts.
