The Straight and Narrow – Episode 2104

by Vinnie Tortorich

Episode 2104 – On this Monday show, Anna Vocino and Vinnie Tortorich talk crazy veganism, common phone calls, walking the straight and narrow to fix metabolic disorder, the effects of alcohol, and more.

PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS

CRAZY VEGANISM

  • One of the bad parts of veganism is the ‘splainers.
  • They spend all their time talking about how they and the way they’re living is better.
  • That’s all they talk about — and it’s an attempt at indoctrination.
  • It’s unsolicited proselytizing. 

COMMON PHONE CALLS

  • Vinnie does lots of phone consults.
  • There are three common types:
    • 1. Am I doing this right?
    • 2. I feel like I’m “plateauing.”
    • 3. I’m doing well about this, but what about life into living?
  • People feel like this is working but they have common trouble.
  • Schedule a call with him if you need some one-on-one consulting.

THE STRAIGHT AND NARROW

  • It can be tough to keep with it strictly.
  • Anna and Vinnie both suggest going all in for 60 to 120 days.
  • Sometimes people want to cut corners or change things up in a way that’s not 
  • For lots of people who are metabolically damaged, eating things like tropical fruit are making deals with themselves.
    • This is something that caused a problem from the start –– sugar –– so stay away from it.
      • No excuses and no shortcuts! Especially if you have a sugar addiction.
        • If you’re beating addiction — treat it like any other addiction.
    • Before you know it, you’ll be eating everything unhealthy more often than you’d like.

PURCHASE BEYOND IMPOSSIBLE

  • The documentary launched on January 11, 2022!

NSNG® vs. Keto and More – Episode 1864

by Vinnie Tortorich

Episode 1859 – On this Monday show, Anna Vocino and Vinnie Tortorich talk NSNG® vs. keto, protein synthesis and bro science, muscle stimulation, and more.

PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS

STAYING IN REMISSION

  • Vinnie had cancer 14 years ago.
  • They told him it would come back.
  • It hasn’t!
  • Vinnie credits this largely to his avoiding sugar, which feeds cancer.

NSNG® VS. KETO

  • When Vinnie was a trainer, his clients weren’t keto.
  • They cut out sugar, grains, starches, and seed oils.
  • It wasn’t enough to call it dietary ketosis.
  • However, they were metabolically flexible.
  • You can just do strict NSNG® and not keto and still lose lots of weight.
  • Vinnie does think some people would benefit more from being in strict keto.
    • Those with CPAP machines, those who are pre-diabetic, etc., may want to consider keto.

Ignoring Health Buzzwords – Episode 1788

by Vinnie Tortorich

Episode 1788 – On this Sunday School episode, Gina Grad joins Vinnie Tortorich to talk ignoring “health” buzzwords, unhealthy ancient grains, glucose spikes, and more.

PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS

IGNORING HEALTH BUZZWORDS

  • There are a lot of “health” related buzzwords out there.
  • For example, plant-based is one.
  • Now, “ancient grains” are really kicking.
  • Just because you hear them a lot and they try to market them as different doesn’t make them different.
  • Ancient grains are quite simply grains.
  • Are unprocessed/unmodified grains better?
    • Maybe, but they still aren’t good for you.
  • F quinoa!
  • Historically, people ate grains because it fattened them up.

The Twelve Days of Christmas & More – Episode 1739

by Vinnie Tortorich

Episode 1739 – On this Monday show, Anna and Vinnie re-hash the Facebook craziness, and the two talk The Twelve Days of Christmas, the Bachelor, narcissistic gift-giving, holiday drink recipes, and more.

PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS

FACEBOOK CRAZINESS

  • Facebook has been deleting the craziest posts.
  • Any post that includes the word “bacon fat” or “cow” or anything of the kind gets deleted for “bullying” because the algorithm doesn’t recognize context.
  • The mods have received notifications that the group could be deleted if this keeps happening.
    • This puts us between a rock and a hard place.
      • The mods are a lenient admin team so it’s a tough place to be.
  • Essentially, benign posts are being flagged.
  • We’re trying to keep everything good, but fingers crossed the craziness doesn’t get crazier!
    • The censure, whether intentional or not, is very aggravating. 
  • Let us know if you have any ideas. Should Vinnie start his own social media website?

THE TWELVE DAYS OF CHRISTMAS

  • Vinnie and Anna run through the song day by day.
  • You’ll have an orchard by the end of the song.
    • Make sure your district allows twelve trees and a ton of birds.
      • Who wants 42 geese?
  • The person who keeps giving all these things might be narcissistic — s/he keeps giving the other person responsibility without having to care for them.
  • At least the golden rings are nice.

FAT DOC 2 IS AVAILABLE FOR PRE-ORDER

  • Please also share it with family and friends!
  • Pre-order in on iTunes to get it to the top of the charts.
    • We need it to get big for people to see it.
