In his 40s, he had sleep apnea and was pre-diabetic. Once he saw some friends have heart attacks, he realized something needed to change. He started with the Beach Body DIet. He had to buy all types of crap. It's a mult-level diet scam. You can become a COACH and they make money off of you. At the same time, he became raw vegan. After 6 months, it started to feel bad. He was ALWAYS hungry. He did lose some weight, though. He wanted muscle. On this diet, after he lost some weight, he added grains back in and upped protein shakes to try and get muscle. All his calories were synthetic - coming from junk. Bryant had no energy doing this. He'd have to take pre-workout just to have an

Https://www.vinnietortorich.com/2020/03/closed-gyms-carrying-coronavirus-episode-1540 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS Pure Vitamin Club Pure Coffee Club CARRYING CORONAVIRUS You can carry Coronavirus with no symptoms. This is more serious than the flu because it spreads faster and we have no immunity to it. Trying to stay home as much as possible is a good idea. It may be a bummer, but it can save lives. Have a virtual cocktail hour with your friends, don't go to bars. Many gyms and the like are closing. The good news is, you can still go outside and run or hike! Just try to keep a safe distance from people. You can protect yourself from this. Wash your hands, avoid physical contact with others or with community services. You can also try to help your immune system with supplements and zinc. However, supplements can't "ward off" or prevent

It is best to take it seriously. KetoCon is currently NOT shutting down. Make sure you are washing your hands often and staying home if feeling sick.

You end up taking these things for granted! It's amazing to think of hikers hundreds of years ago, who didn't have crazy equipment and who just lived for the adventure. FINDING THE RIGHT DOCTOR Tammy's doctor wasn't amenable to NSNG®. She lost about 60 lbs, and is 5 feet tall. The doctor didn't seem to believe she could come off these meds and have such good bloodwork based off of her low carb diet alone. Finding a doctor who supports and believes you can make all the difference! Unlike lots of meds, surgeries, or diet plans, NSNG® isn't expensive. It's the commercial garbage that costs money. Even on a tight budget, you

: Episode 1534 - Vinnie Tortorich and co-host Anna Vocino talk KetoCon, the fact that juice is just sugar, eating nuts, not getting fat from parsnips, the free PDF, urine strips, and more on this Monday show. Https://www.vinnietortorich.com/2020/03/juice-is-just-sugar-episode-1534 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS Pure Vitamin Club Pure Coffee Club Evamor Water Villa Cappelli F Bomb JUICE IS JUST SUGAR Juice is just sugary water. If you want fruit, eat it whole! Not all fruit is created equally, however. Try to avoid bananas or raisins. Shoot for berries if you're eating whole fruits. Tropical fruits like pineapple are also particularly sugary. Just because juice has some kale in it or has "no added sugar" doesn't make it ok. Cold-pressed juice might sound special, but it isn't. Even if it says "no added sugar," they may have hidden sugars in addition to fruit such as "maple water." URINE STRIPS Just because you are turning those pee strips dark purple doesn't necessarily mean you're in ketosis. This could just mea

Https://www.vinnietortorich.com/2020/03/eating-slowly-insect-fat-episode-1533 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS Pure Vitamin Club Pure Coffee Club EATING SLOWLY When you have a crazy schedule, you may be tempted to eat your food really quickly. Maybe because you're super hungry or because you need to get to the next thing. You may eat too much and feel sick as a result! Eating slowly can be really beneficial, because it takes your hormones a bit to tell you you're full! INSECT FAT Gina saw something that said insect fat (and protein) is good for you. This seems like something that we really do not need. Insects can be a delicacy, but they aren't a supplement or something to be crushed up in your protein shakes. Real meat ain't broken – eat that!

He found Vinnie via the Carolla effect and then began listening pretty religiously to Vinnie. This guy looks great, and looks like an athlete. Davy realized that exercise itself is a poor way to lose weight. It's great to supplement a healthy diet with exercise, though. This is all about eating whole, single source foods. He has spread this movement to many of his friends. The best feeling is hearing from his friends that they are also losing weight and feeling healthy! He had a bunch of friends over, s

If you want sushi while eating no sugar, no grains, go for sashimi. Additionally, lots of soy sauce has gluten so watch out. ® When you dine out, stick with meat and vegetables. Ask for no fries, no pilaf, no rice on the side at all. Don't tempt yourself! Normally you can get some veg instead. American restaurants are great for burgers, cheese, avocado and bacon. If you get a side salad, get olive oil and no croutons. Treat your servers well!!!! Often, they may not get it or may be trying their best. Steak is always the move. French food is easy. Italian can be tough. Stick to a fish dish with a veg side. If you go out and eat badly, you will likely fee
