TOUGH LOVE AND DELAYED GRATIFICATION

  • Vinnie starts the show by noting that he has been approached by several prominent health experts for a possible “summit” event. (2:00)
    • He gets a little concerned because he wants to ensure the NSNG® message stays as pure as possible.
  • The WHO (World Health Organization) recently released an article that discourages using artificial sweeteners. (15:30)
    • Vinnie was giving this advice since the 1980s!
    • Anna reads the article and they discuss why they are a problem.
      • They do not help with long-term weight loss and other undesirable effects. 
      • But then the WHO contradicts itself by saying things like raw sugar and fruit sugars can be ok.
      • The problem with sweet & sugary flavors is that they keep the addiction active, instead of breaking a bad habit. (17:30)
    • Anna and Vinnie dive deeper into the frustration of sugar addiction and how people try to find workarounds and “cheats”. (26:00)
      • Here comes the tough love and delayed gratification (artificial and real sugars) and the benefits of both. (28:00)
      • The only way to get better is to cut out what is causing the problem!
      • Some of Anna’s long-term successes that she has achieved are when she made peace with and accepted delayed gratification.
        • She makes some great points about the benefits of that behavior.
        • Vinnie adds some great examples of his own about this. (32:50)

PERI-MENOPAUSE AND MORE

  • Anna transitions to talking about the challenges of peri-menopause/menopause based on a message she received. (35:40)
    • Starting NSNG® should help with some of the symptoms, and book a consultation with Vinnie if you need some help.
    • Your body doesn’t respond the same way as when you are younger; NSNG® can help you with your hormonal balance.
  • Vinnie shares a question he received from a pregnant listener and his very practical response. (37:30)
  • Also, they talk a bit about not being carb-phobic; Anna elaborates. (50:00)
  • They finish up with some recipe ideas, and Anna rips open the time-space continuum.
  • Also, listen for the May promo code for NSNG® Foods’ UltraFat offer!
