Health Shouldn’t Be Political with Nina Teicholz – Episode 2086

by Vinnie Tortorich

Episode 2086 – On this Friday show, Nina Teicholz joins Vinnie for another appearance on the podcast, and the two talk shadow banning, how health shouldn’t be political, following the science, obstacles in changing the way you eat, and more.

PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS

SHADOW BANNING

  • This is not a good thing.
  • Vinnie believes he and others like him have been the subject of shadow banning on social media.
  • Shadow banning is bad for democracy and doesn’t help depolarization of this country.
  • When folks got along and could be respectful, things were better.

HEALTH SHOULDN’T BE POLITICAL

  • Health has been politicized.
  • This shouldn’t be the case.
  • Meat was demonized, and those who ate meat didn’t care for the environment.
  • But the science doesn’t support these positions.
  • Politicizing it means that we don’t really hear or engage with the science.
  • We see this in things like meatless Mondays and vegan Fridays. 
    • Encouraging children to go vegan while the science shows that this is not the way to eat for healthy growth and development isn’t right.
    • And for many children, school is where they get their biggest meals.
    • Studies have shown that children who eat meat do better.
  • In Belgium, you can go to jail for feeding your child a vegan diet because it is not good for them. 
    • There, the science talks.
  • Nina wrote a great op-ed on this. Check it out here: https://www.nydailynews.com/opinion/ny-oped-the-real-risks-of-vegan-fridays-20220211-uvx5kccnkzfwpa6vr7kilfx52m-story.html
  • You can also do your own experiment with your health. What makes you feel good? What helps you get healthier?

  • This is Vinnie’s third documentary in just over three years.

The Importance of Research with Dr. Ken Berry – Episode 1932

by Vinnie Tortorich

Episode 1932 –  On this Saturday BEST OF show, Dr. Ken Berry joins Vinnie, and the two discuss Ken’s career, keto crotch, unfounded anti-keto claims, the importance of research, Type 2 diabetes, blind doctor-patient trust, and more.

PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS

DR. KEN BERRY

THE IMPORTANCE OF RESEARCH

  • Dr. Berry completely disputes the keto crotch thing.
    • If anything, keto diet will help smells down there.
    • This is a smear campaign because keto is gaining traction.
    • Barilla (pasta company) was involved with this.
  • Anti-keto articles have links for ‘studies’ that don’t actually link to another page.
    • This makes the articles seem legit even when they are not.
  • The internet gives us the option to really look into things.
    • It just takes 10 minutes to figure out the root of any story. 
  • He and his wife make FB live videos. 
    • They make sure everything he talks about is well-researched!
  • Exogenous ketones are BS. 
  • Millions of Americans have been running around with undiagnosed diabetes.
    • If they fast before a check-up, their doctors won’t see how sick they are.
    • Doctors check the minimum.
    • Patients blindly trust them.
    • If your doctor won’t order a lab you’re concerned about, that is a huge red flag.

FAT DOC 2 IS AVAILABLE ON iTUNES and AMAZON

  • Please also share it with family and friends!

Studies That Don’t Make Sense – Episode 1893

by Vinnie Tortorich

Episode 1893 – On this Sunday School episode, Gina Grad and Vinnie Tortorich talk milk chocolate, studies that don’t make sense, crazy diets, sugarholics, and more.

PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS

STUDIES THAT DON’T MAKE SENSE

  • There are many studies out there that don’t make sense.
  • Like, pasta helps you lose weight and the like.
  • Sometimes they may be legit.
  • But, take a look at who funded the studies.
  • For the pasta study, for example, it was Barilla — the biggest pasta producer in the country.
    • Money talks!
  • Other times, studies just aren’t significant enough to show real results.
    • This milk chocolate study Gina saw only studied 19 women for two weeks, and only controlled their chocolate consumption — it didn’t control for anything else they ate.
    • These studies are problematic because people take them at face value and it doesn’t have good results.

  • Please also share it with family and friends!
