: Episode 1501 - Dr. Heather Carr joins Vinnie this Friday to discuss her work as an orthodontist, what humans are set up to eat, the food chain, healthy teeth, and more! Https://www.vinnietortorich.com/2020/01/the-food-chain-teeth-heather-carr-episode-1501 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS Pure Vitamin Club Pure Coffee Club Evamor Water Villa Cappelli F Bomb THE FOOD CHAIN Dr. Heather Carr is a doctor and a runner. She is a practicing orthodontist. We have canines for a reason! Our digestive system is very complex, including our saliva, in order to digest food. Humans were set up to eat whatever was available, according to Dr. Carr. Traditionally, though, this is meat and then plants but only when meat was scarce. Veganism is trying to humanize animals while ignoring the food chain. Teenagers can have teeth fall out from periodontal disease around puberty. Dr. Carr deals a lot with TMJ disorders.

Https://www.vinnietortorich.com/2020/01/alcohol-tolerance-ketosis-episode-1499 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS Pure Vitamin Club Pure Coffee Club Evamor Water Villa Cappelli F Bomb ALCOHOL TOLERANCE Many people have a desire to have a glass of wine every night. Try something else, like a scotch or a La Croix and vodka or gin. Lots of people quit alcohol completely with this way of eating. Your tolerance for alcohol will likely go way down when you cut carbs. GETTING OVER CICO We have been trained to think calorie in calorie out is the way. This is not sustainable. With low carb, you may lose a ton of weight in the beginning then it slows down. Alternatively, it may take you a bit to start losing. Give it time! Know you're resetting your body. You are healing. If you need to overeat anything at the beginning, make it fat. FAT DOC IS OUT Go

Brain health is super important. If you feel your memory has slipped, or something, like this, get checked out. You would rather make sure nothing is wrong earlier rather than later! Being cautious in terms of going to the doctor a bit more often isn't a bad thing. A professional's opinion is always good if you are feeling off. FAT DOC IS OUT Go watch it now!

He was even heavier at points. From the age ten, he was a fat kid. On one 23rd of May, he decided that was it. He found podcasts that led him to fasting. Initially, he went back to cookies. Eventually, he found Vinnie through Adam Carolla. Jeroen is a truck driver in the Netherlands. He is very careful of sugars everywhere. Hidden sugars are in so many products – even many vitamins (but not PVC). Seven months into NSNG®, he is weighing around just under 218 lbs. He still hopes to lose another 26 lbs before next May.

: Episode 1495 - Andy Schreiber and Vinnie talk the Archies, inflammatory bowel disease and sugar, and more on this Wednesday show. Https://www.vinnietortorich.com/2020/1/inflammatory-bowel-disease-sugar-episode-1495 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS Pure Vitamin Club Pure Coffee Club INFLAMMATORY BOWEL DISEASE Andy recently found a study that links inflammatory bowel diseases and short term sugar consumption. In other words, that one cheat day a week you're having can still really hurt your body. Don't say, "well, it's Sunday." This is a way of eating, a lifestyle, not a diet. It seems sugar consumption, even if short-term, increases chances of developing diseases such as colitis. This way of eating is not just about weight loss - it's about improving your overall health!

Many are not NSNG®. Be wary of products that advertise as this. They often have sweeteners or hidden sugars, or may technically be low carb but are not good for you! DIET SOFT DRINKS Many people have trouble getting off of diet coke. This can be a tough addiction to kick. Just because they don't have carbs does not make them ok. The chemicals in these are not good for you! At the same time, don't jump down peoples' throats when they try to say these are ok. People have been lied to. It can take time to unlearn these lies. Sometimes when you jump on people

: Episode 1493 - Vinnie Tortorich and Tallulah talk unhealthy sports drinks, the middle-class of fitness, college and professional athletics, the One Love Foundation and more on this Sunday School episode! Https://www.vinnietortorich.com/2020/01/unhealthy-sports-drinks-episode-1493 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS Pure Vitamin Club Pure Coffee Club UNHEALTHY SPORTS DRINKS Gatorade is marketed as healthy. Really, it's just like drinking soda. A lot of athletes and schools are sponsored by Gatorade and such companies. However, many of these elite athletes avoid the stuff as it's unhealthy! Instead, many use electrolytes in their water - some even use UltraSalt. Kids, if you want to be your best as an athlete, stay away from these sugary drinks. This is a prime example of good intentions being stolen. COLLEGES AND GYMS Vinnie has been working out at UVA gyms recently. He notices that the students are very fit. They are the 'upper-class' of fitness - this is great, however, we want people who are trying to get healthy

Https://www.vinnietortorich.com/2020/01/life-saving-weight-loss-episode-1492 LIFE-SAVING WEIGHT LOSS Scott is 42 years old and 6'1". He was over 500 lbs. On the day of his gastric bypass surgery in 2006, he was 552. He got down to 276 at his lowest. However, shortly after gastric bypass he put the weight back on. At one point, he was trying to get a second bypass. For awhile, Scott looked into keto, but he knew he would fail. He knew he wouldn't prep properly, etc. When he ate lots of sugar and grains, he felt horrible. He developed hypoglycemia after gastric bypass. Since he started this way of eating, he's lost nearly 160lbs. The rest of his family is eating healthier, too. He's now under 300 lbs. For awhile, he didn't think this way of eating would work. He found Vinnie through the Carolla eff

First of all, No Sugars, No Grains. What does that mean? Quinoa is a grain. So is corn. NO grains, not 'healthy' grains (no such thing). Sugars include sweeteners (erithyrol, stevia, etc.) We recommend fully committing for a full 60 days before trying something like french fries. This is about eating real, healthy foods. The goal of NSNG is NOT necessarily dietary ketosis. It varies person to person. Vinnie lives in dietary ketosis, but you don't NEED to to be healthy and lose weight. Stick to fatty cuts of meets and cruciferous veggies. Main cruciferous veggies: cauliflower, broccoli

He is 58 years old. He suffered from severe depression, insomnia, and other issues for most of his life. His diet turned these things around. In 2015, he was 289 lbs. At the time, he was considering shock therapy or long term hospitalization. He learned of low carb diet and cannabis. Cannabis treated the symptoms, low carb diet prevented them. Now, Brett is 6' and 177 lbs! Pretty similar in size to Vinnie. Brett is a musician! Brett actually transitioned into a carnivore diet. Bacon has been an integral part of this for him. He's over chicken. At first, he ate 4 times a day. Now he's d
