Episode 2140 - BEST OF: In this BEST OF episode We replay a 2020 episode where Anna Vocino joins Vinnie for a 1-on-1, and the two talk about Vinnie's trip to Louisiana, morbid obesity, Type 2 Diabetes, changing your thinking, unhealthy southern food, Fat Doc 2, fake and "natural" sweeteners, and more. https://vinnietortorich.com/2022/07/best-of-changing-your-thinking-episode-2140 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS Pure Vitamin Club Pure Coffee Club NSNG® Foods Villa Cappelli CHANGING YOUR THINKING When Vinnie and Anna were kids, they would hear about "sugar diabetes." (12:25) Now, this is called Type 2 Diabetes. For many, this is a disease you can reverse. (13:27) Stop eating sugar and grains––this works for many. Make it a permanent lifestyle change; you need to be changing your thinking and realize it's not "just a diet." Work with your doctor on this. Anna has a great explanation and rant about the sugar and grain lobbies, and the diet industry. (14:37). NSNG® and turning around your health, are not temporary fixes or fads. (43:30) Once you beat the addiction, you realize how sustainable this is. You are not only healing your body, but you can reveal emotional patterns of eating, which can help you, too. UNHEALTHY SOUTHERN FOOD The South has terrible obesity rates, and they appear to be getting worse. (49:00) Many of the popular foods there are the reason. There are grains in EVERYTHING; for example, the soups have grains, the fish and chicken have breading. (23:30) If you live in the South, make an effort to make your own food. (25:20) Eat real food, and don't worry about things like intermittent fasting--as your body heals it will make adjustments on its own.

(2:20) Leona tells Vinnie that she heard him on The Adam & Dr. Drew podcast (in 2015) and mentions a little more of her history. (3:40) She was frustrated about the years of conflicting information about eating high carbs and burning body fat; as a result, when she heard Vinnie explain things so clearly, NSNG® and a low-carb lifestyle just made sense. (7:32) Vinnie explains how even his Italian ancestors warned him that pasta and bread could make you fat. (8:52) Vinnie explains where the myth of needing high carbs took hold. (10:12) Vinnie mentions that the Adam & Dr. Drew episode that Vinnie was on remains one of their show's more famous episodes; it's the reason he has since been on their shows around 90 times so far.

(31:33) Vinnie describes various ways to work out that can help and what he likes to do for himself. (35:29) Vinnie reminds us that it doesn't have to be as difficult as we tend to make it; he then shares his thoughts about breaking up workouts into smaller segments and whether that can be effective. (41:10) TENACITY & "WHY NOT?" Vinnie explains he doesn't think he is tenacious as much as he's just formed lifelong habits and his personal approach of "Why not?".

Roderick was born without a fibula in his right leg, which resulted in amputation below the knee at age two. He was from a large family and the kids were very active and competitive with each other, so he was involved with athletics from a young age. Vinnie then asks Roderick to give more background about how he advanced throughout his athletic career. They also chat about the various controversies and challenges regarding materials for prosthetics and current testing that occurs for the Paralympics. They then go on to discuss several other para-athletes they find inspiring. Vinnie asks Roderick about the work he does as a mentor and about the non-profit foundation he's established. This leads to discussions of mind over matter; both Vinnie and Roderick hate the word "can't" and share some examples of positive change. Vinnie explains what he means by "F.Q." (Failure Quotient), and why it's important; Roderick has thoughts on mindset as well, including asking himself, "What can I do now?" BENEFITS OF THE RIGHT NUTRITION Roderick tells Vinnie how a ketogenic diet and intermittent fasting helped him get back into better health after an injury. Roderick feels great; however, he explains his frustration how even the experts for high-end athletes don't even have all the information correct--and they are supposed to know the science the best.

Tim then gives more of his history and how he had been depressed and frustrated coming from various other diet programs, only to gain the weight back. Tim was seriously considering gastric bypass surgery. Tim had really felt he had hit his "lowest of lows"; Vinnie understands this because he has worked with so many morbidly obese clients over the years. Tim admits he comes from a severe diet mentality, sugar addiction, and a lot of emotional eating. Vinnie and Tim talk about various temptations like certain fast food and Mardi Gras season; however, Tim is amazed how NSNG® has helped him change his mindset. FINDING HIS "WHY" Vinnie tells Tim about Scott King's "Why", and Tim has a strong "Why" of his own. Tim has enjoyed running half marathons and he'd like to get back into them. Tim shares some of the things that inspire him and what he loves about NSNG® and its community; as a result, Scott King has become a friend and mentor to Tim. Vinnie and Tim discuss some of the naysayers on social platforms, but Tim is grateful that both Vinnie and Anna give so much time and energy to help others.

Episode 2121 - On this Friday's show, Vinnie Tortorich speaks with Texas Slim, founder of The Beef Initiative and they discuss recent farming history, learning through observation, and how to learn more about sourcing your animal protein, and more. https://vinnietortorich.com/2022/06/farming-history-local-sourcing-episode-2121 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS Pure Vitamin Club Pure Coffee Club NSNG® Foods Villa Cappelli FARMING HISTORY IN RECENT YEARS Vinnie leads the show with the iconic voice-over talent of Sam Elliott and introduces Texas Slim, the founder of The Beef Initiative. The Beef Initiative is a way to find out more about how to source your animal protein through local sources and learn more about where your food comes from. Vinnie and Slim discuss how there has been a shift in information; as a result, there is variance between what some call "my truth" and absolutes, especially in the food industry. Vinnie gives a great example of building a kayak as what is meant by "absolute". Texas Slim gives a summary of the recent farming industry that has led to today's factory farming and its negative aspects. Slim explains the growth of mono-cropping and what it has done to our food supply. Vinnie recounts how in the 1970s the food industry shifted to using things like high fructose corn syrup. They then discuss a little of their personal histories and how it has led to being great observers. LOCAL SOURCING Not everyone has access to locally sourced meat, but if you can do it, it's a great option. Many factory farms feed their animals with grains treated with chemicals and the animals are treated with hormones. Vinnie and Texas Slim discuss the many benefits of knowing where your animal protein comes from. Price manipulation and labeling laws of many meat products make it difficult to know where your food comes from. Texas Slim has some recommendations on how to contact a local rancher, communicate with them, learn from them, and get great products.

Episode 2119 - On this Monday's show, Vinnie Tortorich and Anna Vocino get into topics where bro-science and building muscle conflicts, why following the PDF is not "following a diet", and offer answers to some listener questions, and more. [libsyn_podcast id=23332802] PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS Pure Vitamin Club Pure Coffee Club NSNG® Foods Villa Cappelli FOLLOWING A DIET This episode leads off differently as a big storm had just gone through Vinnie's area--but the show must go on. Don't forget to go to iTunes and rate and review the podcast. This bumps it up in the ratings and allows it to be found easier. Download Vinnie's PDF and get all the basic guidelines. A person can decide how much they want to stick to the PDF, but your results will show whether being strict or not works best. Anna & Vinnie mention that this is not a "following a diet" because it's not something you follow temporarily and then go back to old ways of eating. BRO-SCIENCE Anna has recently spoken to two men who are under the bro-science influence of thinking. They think they need high carbs to gain muscle weight and definition; Vinnie addresses where this idea comes from and why it is incorrect. Vinnie then explains how you should be fueling to build muscle; if you need specific help, it's best to book a consult and he can further address your questions. MODIFYING RECIPES & OTHER ANSWERS Vinnie and Anna then answer several listener questions about carbs from vegetables, a few flour substitutes (what works and what doesn't), and what are some good and bad examples of crunchy snacks. They finish off the episode showing off some of their musical chops. PURCHASE BEYOND IMPOSSIBLE The documentary launched this week, January 11! Order it TODAY!

Anna questions the validity of the results because there are too many variables to get down to any real answers. Vinnie has always questioned everything, even as a kid, and as a result, it often got him in trouble; but it has led to how he helps people today. They discuss several things that relate to the report as well, including how the AHA (American Heart Association) has been inconsistent. AVOIDING PACKAGED PASTRIES Anna feels like the only way to be clear about how your body works best is to be NSNG® awhile. Vinnie often takes calls from people who are upset that their doctor never told them about this way of eating. They chat about childhood treats, how accessible they were, and how grocery stores flow to get you to buy all the baked goods. Anna also reminds Vinnie that he is the anomaly when he states he avoids the bakery section. PURCHASE BEYOND IMPOSSIBLE The documentary launched this week, January 11! Order it TODAY!

The conversation then turns to how Anna's husband Loren had to recently have a colonoscopy and she reads the ridiculous "approved foods" and beverages to "properly prep" for a colonoscopy. The "white foods" list and sugary drinks that are allowed are ridiculous. Anna has actually improved her results by being NSNG® for so long. They then discuss the lies we are often told about how meat sits in the colon and ruins your health. PURCHASE BEYOND IMPOSSIBLE The documentary launched this week, January 11! Order it TODAY!

Episode 2112 – BEST OF: We replay episode 5 where Vinnie Tortorich and Anna Vocino discuss a lawsuit involving Nutella spread, advertising claims, having more to lose, the Biggest Loser television show, and more. Https://www.vinnietortorich.com/2022/05/best-of-more-to-lose-nutella-mom-episode-2112 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS Pure Vitamin Club Pure Coffee Club NSNG® Foods Villa Cappelli "NUTELLA MOM" AND MISLEADING ADVERTISING Vinnie is annoyed by the claims of the "Nutella Mom" lawsuit in which she says ads led her to believe Nutella was healthy because it's made with "natural ingredients". Vinnie and Anna discuss how advertising over the years has misrepresented things like smoking, even though it should be obvious that smoking is bad for you. The same kind of misrepresentation happens with packaged foods, and the Nutella case is an example. There is a big difference between allowing a treat every once in a great while and making sugary items a daily thing. MORE TO LOSE Vinnie has a love-hate relationship with "The Biggest Loser" television show. The show leads viewers to think that people with huge amounts of weight to lose should be able to do it quickly. The behind-the-scenes methods of the show is controlled starvation and is both unhealthy and unsustainable. That's why everyone gains the weight back. Vinnie recommends chipping away at weight loss slowly by cutting out sugars and grains and by moving your body each day. They also discuss another popular TV trainer and the bad recommendations that trainer has made. ARTIFICIAL SWEETENERS Vinnie and Anna discuss several brands of sweeteners and why the are not good to use. Sweetness can cause an insulin reaction in the body and it's simply best to break your sweet tooth and save treats for limited occasions.

Episode 2111 - On this special Friday show, Anna Vocino joins Vinnie and the two talk revisiting your goals, our previous shows, BS keto products, and more. Https://www.vinnietortorich.com/2022/05/revisiting-your-goals-more-episode-2111 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS Pure Vitamin Club Pure Coffee Club NSNG® Foods Villa Cappelli REVISITING YOUR GOALS Vinnie likes to set several new goals each year. He likes to be able to achieve things. Because of that, he makes sure his goals are achievable and he does his best to stick to them. This year, one of those goals was learning how to build his own boat. His other goal is that he'll do at least 365 hours of cardio this year. Each time he does cardio, he keeps time on his watch. On day 143 of the year, he's over 170 hours of cardio. He's doing this because some days he won't be able to exercise, so front-loading helps. It's important to keep your goals going in the right direction. Now's a good time to revisit your goals. OUR PREVIOUS EPISODES We have recently aired our first-ever episode again.

Andy had to lug it to get fixed. We were down for a few hours. Now, we're catching up a little bit, but not because of the machinery. Rather, we had way more orders than anticipated during our recent promo period. We also had an employee out, so Andy rolled up his sleeves and got to work filling orders. Great news: we have an entire second line of equipment that should be completed later this week. Additionally, we're hiring more staff. This way, we should be able to create twice the output! In the next few weeks, after we catch up mid-next week, we'll restock on Amazon and get to our new ideas and projects for this company. We're never letting this happen again, and we're going to make it up to our loyal customers--with all of our companies. With Pure Vitamin Club, for example, we're going to set up a blanket purchase order. This will allow us to have a metric crap ton of our formulas on hand. We believe transparency is important.

Episode 2109 - On this Monday show, Anna Vocino and Vinnie Tortorich talk about hunger when fat adapted, Ultra Fat and Eat Happy marinara orders, coffee as a drug, alcohol's effect on your sleep, and more. https://vinnietortorich.com/2022/05/hunger-when-fat-adapted-more-episode-2109 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS Pure Vitamin Club Pure Coffee Club NSNG® Foods Villa Cappelli HUNGER WHEN FAT ADAPTED Vinnie has been working and moving around in the yard a lot recently. He was prepping for Tallulah's law school graduation party. This involved a lot of manual labor. By 3 pm, Vinnie had walked over 20,000 steps. He realized around 3 pm that he hadn't eaten since 7 pm the night before. Vinnie did not mean to intermittent fast, but he is so fat adapted, he barely even noticed. All he had was coffee with a little cream, and that kept him going throughout the very hot day. If you're fat adapted correctly, intermittent fasting (intentional or otherwise) becomes easier. You can even exercise. To break this accidental fast, he'll probably have a giant steak in the evening. COFFEE AS A DRUG There have been many studies that have shown health benefits of coffee. It can be good for your heart, and has many antioxidants. However, if you're needing coffee as a stimulant, there's probably another issue there. It might be with your sleep or your diet, but you shouldn't use coffee as a drug! Vinnie used to 'use' it, so he addressed that in order to keep drinking it for enjoyment.

Episode 2108 - On this Sunday School episode, Vinnie Tortorich and Gina Grad talk Gina's breast reduction surgery, feeling comfortable in your body, healing, and more. Https://www.vinnietortorich.com/2022/05/feeling-comfortable-in-your-body-episode-2108 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS Pure Vitamin Club Pure Coffee Club NSNG® Foods BREAST REDUCTION SURGERY Gina recently had surgery to reduce her breasts. She is a small woman (5'5") and her breasts were very disproportionately large. This was a medical surgery, not a cosmetic one. Her insurance company covered it quite easily. Post-op, she has to wear certain clothes and follow certain protocols to ensure she heals up healthily. For the first few days, she felt pretty sick. Now, she's feeling better but taking it easy. Mostly, she's walking, and it feels good -- including on a cellular level. Eating healthily tough because she is dealing with nausea, but she wants to get back on the wagon as soon as possible. Right now, she needs to eat what she can stomach, even if that's rice or bread. FEELING COMFORTABLE IN YOUR BODY Now, she feels fantastic and so much more proportional! It is tough on your body to have so much weight that is 'non-functional' insofar as it is not muscle. She didn't want to do anything with impact because it was uncomfortable and would hurt her chest. This took about 4 lbs off. She hopes to be "streak-ready" soon, post-op and back on the NSNG® wagon. PURCHASE BEYOND IMPOSSIBLE The documentary launched this week, January 11! Order it TODAY!

Episode 2107 - On this Saturday show, Katherine Craig joins Vinnie and the two talk Vizslas, battling allergies with diet, dog food, and more. Https://www.vinnietortorich.com/2022/05/battling-allergies-with-diet-episode-2107 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS Pure Vitamin Club Pure Coffee Club NSNG® Foods KATHERINE'S STORY She used to be the calorie queen -- she'd eat any and all sweets. Despite working in medicine, she'd eat cupcakes whenever offered. One day, she ate a cupcake and had a severe allergic reaction. It didn't have anything in it that she hadn't had before, but it kept happening. They didn't know what was wrong with her, but they gave her medication -- like putting a bandaid on a bleeding wound without figuring out what caused it. Katherine decided she needed to try something to stop the allergic reactions and her stomach issues. She began by trying paleo for one month. This was mostly meat, fish, veggies and fruit. BATTLING ALLERGIES The paleo diet took away the allergic reactions and her stomach pain, but as soon as she'd start 'cheating,' by eating anything she wanted, she'd get the pain and allergic reactions back. When she was eating badly, she was on TONS of medications and her environmental allergies. She also found out she's highly allergic to soy -- at restaurants, the meat must be cooked on foil to avoid touching the grill. If she has too much dairy, her environmental allergies kick back in. Much of this has to do with the body's inflammation, and when she is careful about what she eats (very low carb, no sugar, no grains), the inflammation is low enough that these allergic reactions don't really surface. NSNG® has worked for her, and it has also helped her avoid diabetes which she is predisposed to. PURCHASE BEYOND IMPOSSIBLE The documentary launched this week, January 11! Order it TODAY!

He's not mad at you. Rather, he's mad that those in search of money and power, and those who could make you healthy, do not look after your health. Simply put, your good intentions have been stolen, and Vinnie wants to help you get them back. FAILED DIET PLANS Anna had tried Weight Watchers. Things like this didn't work. She also tried a new app when this show started. But to be frank, the app which focused on CICO sets Anna and others up to fail and need their services again.

Episode 2105 - On this Wednesday show, Andy Schreiber and Vinnie Tortorich talk vegans on Twitter, losing muscle, various exercising like cycling and jumping rope, and more. https://vinnietortorich.com/2022/05/losing-muscle-is-preventable-episode-2105 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS Pure Vitamin Club Pure Coffee Club NSNG® Foods VEGANS ON TWITTER Vinnie's very active on Twitter. He tries to provide free advice through this medium. But often, vegans come after him. He doesn't like to block them, but they're so crazy. Unfortunately, they aren't there for conversation, they're just their to clog the conversation. This is personal, and sometimes they go ad hominem. LOSING MUSCLE In our 30s, we stop building muscle. Instead, we lose a pound or so a year if we don't do anything. But, you can keep (and grow) these muscles. It doesn't matter what age you are, your muscle fibers grow the same. That said, you might need more recovery as you get older. Think of Reagan -- he gained a ton of muscle after the assassination attempt. He needed new suits at 70 because of his muscle! Work the muscles you want to keep! It's that simple. Do a little every day, over the course of the day. Even getting up to move around can help with this. Weight lifting has lots of benefit for many.

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. https://vinnietortorich.com/2022/05/the-straight-and-narrow-episode-2104 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS Pure Vitamin Club Pure Coffee Club NSNG® Foods Villa Cappelli 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 with 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.

Https://www.vinnietortorich.com/2022/05/good-and-bad-oils-episode-2103 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS Pure Vitamin Club Pure Coffee Club NSNG® Foods GOOD AND BAD OILS Not all oils are created equally. This does not have to do with fat content. Rather, some oils are highly processed and cause tons of inflammation. Seed oils are among the worst. STAY AWAY from corn oil. This is similar to what they use in machinery! Vinnie thinks soybean oil should be illegal. Palm oil, however, is pretty good! Vinnie would recommend. Same with coconut oil and avocado oil. Olive oil, ghee and butter are always a safe bet. If anyone is talking to you about your cholesterol and oils, make sure you don't just take that at face value. So much of what we are told about cholesterol in the mainstream is BS. We need cholesterol and if we don't eat enough, our body will make more.

The two talk biases, variables, epidemiological studies, the relationship between good nutrition and brain health, artificial sweeteners and more. Https://www.vinnietortorich.com/2022/05/sugar-and-brain-health-georgia-ede-episode-2102 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS Pure Vitamin Club Pure Coffee Club NSNG® Foods BRAIN HEALTH She went to medical school in Vermont. Dr. Ede her residency at Harvard for four years. Dr. Ede believes that for many, it is easier to believe that saturated fat is what causes fat. Not always financial bias. Ex: Loma Linda University study (promotes vegetarian diet) found that saturated fats hurt mice (they ignored that also in the higher fat diet was a MUCH greater amount of sugar). Other studies that say meat is bad removed all processed foods at the same time. There are no pure studies that say animal foods are bad for your health. She believes removing the processed foods is where the money is at . Now, Dr. Georgia does not eat plant foods or dairy. Fish and other meats. Pretty extreme diet. In ketosis constantly. Insulin has to cross into the brain. Your brain can become insulin resistant. Then your cells will starve to death when your brain is filled with glucose that can't be broken down. Link between sugar consumption and Alzheimers. She agrees that these artificial sweeteners are so similar to sugar that your body can't really tell the difference. They trick the body into thinking carbs are coming, thereby raising insulin levels. Coffee, Dr. Ede believes, can be very helpful for those with head trauma, ADD, ADHD, etc. Stimulant is good! Maybe this is why Vinnie does so well with coffee. PURCHASE BEYOND IMPOSSIBLE The documentary launched this week, January 11! Order it TODAY!

Episode 2101 - On this Friday show, Mike Catherwood joins Vinnie Tortorich and the two talk Tom Leykis, Mike's career in radio, battling addiction, staying fit healthily, and more. Https://www.vinnietortorich.com/2022/05/battling-addiction-staying-fit-healthily-mike-catherwood-episode-2101 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS Pure Vitamin Club Pure Coffee Club NSNG® Foods Villa Cappelli CAREER IN RADIO Mike is a great voice in radio. You might know him as Psycho Mike from KROQ. KROQ is a hugely influential force in Los Angeles. He also co-hosted the famous radio show, Loveline, for six years. Mike got to KROQ in 2003. He grew up listening to the station. Prior to radio, he was an aspiring musician but as that didn't take off full-time, he found his way to radio. Initially, he wanted to be a songwriter and he played bass and guitar. His first gig in radio was in production on a morning show. BATTLING ADDICTION Earlier in his life, he suffered with addiction during this time. He would have long periods of blacking out and was really struggling. Mike had done so much damage before he got help that stuck. He would be clean for a few weeks at a time but he couldn't stay clean. The most recent time he (and hopefully the last time he'll have to) got sober, he finally realized this was something he had to do to save himself. Mike follows the twelve step program, but he recognizes it's not for everyone. It'll be 20 years of sobriety for Mike later this year! this means he'll have been in recovery for half of his life. It's important to Mike that he not forget about this period of time. He's proud of the man he is now -- not reckless, a family man. STAYING FIT HEALTHILY Mike looks amazing and stays in great shape. He even inspires Vinnie to keep working out! For Mike, he had to make sure that he did not overdo it with working out. He had to find synergy between his mental health and his p For awhile, he was genuinely addicted to lifting weights and looking better. His addiction bled over to his body. This wasn't healthy for him. He didn't care how many steroids he took, and he was still never comfortable in his own skin. Finally, a few years ago, he found how to find comfort in what he was doing and in his relationship with food. He now focuses on developing himself positively emotionally and physically.

Episode 2099 - On this Monday show, Anna Vocino and Vinnie Tortorich talk Slow Horses, Minnie Driver, bad diet fads and unhealthy 'health products,' old-school gyms and the 'roid' look, and more. https://vinnietortorich.com/2022/05/bad-diet-fads-more-episode-2099 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS Pure Vitamin Club Pure Coffee Club NSNG® Foods Villa Cappelli BAD DIET FADS There are lots of diet fads that are just money makers for their proprietors. They don't work - they're selling crap. Lots of products are marketed as healthy or 'keto,' but they're filled with crap and sweeteners. This is true of many vitamins and supplement products, too. And those are probably filled with seed oils. Try to avoid anything that seems too good to be true, or is just temporary. There aren't shortcuts, and real, whole food is always better. You also shouldn't have to pay extra to adapt to a new lifestyle. OLD-SCHOOL GYMS Vinnie used to go to some pretty old-school gyms, and prefers finding gyms like this if he can. Lots of the guys were body-builder types. They'd try to sell PEDs to one another! Anna sees a super roided up guy at her gym pretty often. And the other day, we was talking about eating quinoa.

Episode 2098 - On this Sunday School episode, Gina Grad and Vinnie Tortorich talk reduction surgeries, the harms of bullying, good and bad teachers, and more. Https://www.vinnietortorich.com/2022/05/the-harms-of-bullying-episode-2098 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS Pure Vitamin Club Pure Coffee Club NSNG® Foods REDUCTION SURGERIES Vinnie and Gina both recently had 'elective' surgeries. Gina had a reduction surgery up top -- she's sick of being top heavy. This wasn't just cosmetic, though. It's for her health and her bones and such. For Vinnie, he had Guam removed -- a growth down below. Both are recovering now. THE HARMS OF BULLYING Vinnie was bullied as a child. His mom held him back because she thought he needed it. It made things worse. The other children, AND the nuns, bullied Vinnie. They called him "Vinna" because his deafness and speech impediment prevented him from saying his name correctly. They'd make fun of him in other ways too. This is why Vinnie does not like nuns -- they were supposed to protect him, and they hurt him. Then, the other kids thought they could do it too. This bullying left a mark on Vinnie. He can't imagine how much worse it is now with the internet. He understands why kids self-harm, especially when they don't have the support at home. Be kind to people, whether in person or behind a keyboard. Good teachers can counteract this. Some teachers ask for 'citizens of the week,' or asks students who they'd like to sit to. This lets them see who is being ostracized or bullied, and then teachers can give those students extra attention. Shoutout to the teacher that posted about this and brought it to Gina's attention!

Episode 2097 - On this Saturday show, Dan Frey joins Vinnie and the two talk building things, running a podcast, quicker recovery from injury and surgery with NSNG®, and more. Https://www.vinnietortorich.com/2022/05/quicker-recovery-with-nsng-episode-2097 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS Pure Vitamin Club Pure Coffee Club NSNG® Foods DAN FREY This is Dan's first appearance on the show! He is a software engineer. And, like Vinnie, he loves building things. His wife will find something she likes on Etsy and ask Dan if he can build it. Dan will say yes and figure it out! Vinnie's building a kayak for himself right now. Dan has lost 100 lbs! RUNNING A PODCAST It's tough to run a podcast. Lots of people want to have their word, but it's difficult to establish an audience and keep them coming back. This is not easy work or passive income. Sometimes Vinnie still has to pay out of pocket month-to-month. If you want to find success, find an audience and keep them coming 2000+ shows later! Just don't expect this to be a significant source of income. QUICKER RECOVERY Dan's dad needed a hip replacement. His doctor told him that if he lost some weight before his hip shoulder and surgeries, it would help. Then, he went to Dan, and Dan showed him the NSNG® PDF and tried to assure him that what he was doing is correct. His dad was shocked by how good he felt. He had more energy, less inflammation, and lost around 25 lbs. From the time he had his first surgery (on his shoulder), he had incredible recovery within three weeks. He had his hip replaced on March 7. He didn't really need the painkillers, and didn't use the cane much. One wouldn't believe he had his hip replaced two months ago. The doctors were impressed, too. Dan feels this is, of course, because of his lifestyle change and healthy eating. Lots of other people (including Vinnie) have had similar experiences post-op.
