Start with an air mattress, or car camping. Go soemwhere less wild the first time. Make sure you're in a place where there are lots of outdoor activities. Starting your kids young is a great start. As they get older, they'll get more and more into it! It's a real adventure; not pre-fabricated. Vinnie went camping with his nephews, and it didn't go exactly according to plan.

Changing Our Dietary Guidelines - Episode 1611 Jun 26, 2020

Show notes

: Episode 1611 - On this Friday show, Nina Teicholz joins Vinnie for another appearance, and the two talk the worldwide shutdown and COVID-19, changing our dietary guidelines, suffering under the weight of our own weight, health coaches and more! Https://www.vinnietortorich.com/2020/06/changing-our-dietary-guidelines-episode-1611 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS Pure Vitamin Club Pure Coffee Club Evamor Water Villa Cappelli F Bomb Crowd Cow NINA TEICHOLZ Nina was in the Fat Doc! She is an excellent reporter and reports largely on the lies within the health and nutrition world. Check out one of her previous appearances here. Keto Health Myths with Nina Teicholz – Episode 1276 https://vinnietortorich.com/2019/03/keto-health-myths-nina-teicholz-episode-1276/ She recommends getting a health coach if you're starting out. Find someone who used to struggle with weight, who failed at Weight Watchers, etc. They are out there and they can help. CHANGING OUR DIETARY GUIDELINES She wrote an Op Ed for the WSJ about comorbidities and coronavirus at a policy level. https://www.wsj.com/articles/a-low-carb-strategy-for-fighting-the-pandemics-toll-11590811260 Maybe if we could reduce these numbers of obesity and diabetes, cardiovascular disease, etc., this would look a whole lot different. On a policy level, had our government encouraged a healthy low carb diet years ago, perhaps we wouldn't be hit so hard. The government hasn't formally studied the dietary benefits of this sort of diet. The government doesn't want to back down on what they're said for the past several decades. They may feel it's too late for them to say "we were wrong." However, we need to push for change. We're hurting under the weight of our own weight. Blood sugar levels and COVID-19 outcomes had a relation. Very few people will make any money off of changing our guidelines--many stand to lose a lot of money. Money talks, unfortunately.

Consistent & Beneficial Zone 2 Training - Episode 1609 Jun 22, 2020

Show notes

: Episode 1609 - On this very informational Monday show, Anna Vocino and Vinnie Tortorich talk the benefits of consistent Zone 2 training, stretching, technology, and more! Https://www.vinnietortorich.com/2020/06/consistent-beneficial-zone-2-training-episode-1609 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS Pure Vitamin Club Pure Coffee Club Evamor Water Villa Cappelli F Bomb Crowd Cow ZONE 2 TRAINING Vinnie just got in his Concept 2 rower in. He's been trying to stay in excellent Zone 2 training shape. They have a lot of challenges available, but don't necessarily bite. A lot of these will be high intensity. Make sure you're doing workouts that fit your goals. Being in Zone 4 all the time isn't a good idea all the time. Challenges can be good to keep you motivated, though. Even the Lance Armstrong's of the world don't do Zone 4 training more than once a week. Doing more would have diminishing returns. Zone 2 is great to get in shape and help yourself lose some fat. Vinnie's Zone 2 heart rate is in the 120s. Take 180, subtract your age and give yourself a couple of points if you're in good shape, to figure out your Zone 2 heart rate. You build up mitochondria in Zone 2, and you build up your heart. Take breaks if you need to to stay in this Zone. Walk-run to get in Zone 2, if need be! You'll likely have to start slow if you aren't in shape at the beginning and THAT'S OK! FAT DOC IS OUT Go watch it now! We need people to buy and review for it to stay at the top of iTunes pages.

Https://www.vinnietortorich.com/2020/06/eating-junk-food-episode-1608 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS Pure Vitamin Club Pure Coffee Club EATING JUNK FOOD Once you go NSNG, eating bad food will make you feel ill. Vinnie hears of many people taking a day to eat whatever they want. This usually ends badly for these people. They end up feeling horrible! Keep in mind that when you eat junk food, you may end up feeling like junk! If your kids eat some junk, don't worry so much. Just try to get them to like the healthy food.

BEST OF: Heart Health with Dr. Malcolm Kendrick - Episode 1607 Jun 20, 2020

Show notes

: 1607 - On this Best Of show, we are featuring Dr. Malcolm Kendrick's second appearance on the Friday podcast from July of 2019. Vinnie and Dr. Kendrick discuss LDL and heart health, the lies about cholesterol, science deniers, his book A Statin Nation, harmful effects of statins, and more! We'll be back to normal Saturday programming next week. Https://www.vinnietortorich.com/2020/06/best-of-heart-health-dr-malcolm-kendrick-episode-1607 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS Pure Vitamin Club Pure Coffee Club DR. MALCOLM KENDRICK Check out his first appearance on this podcast here. https://vinnietortorich.com/2015/05/dr-malcolm-kendrick-and-the-anti-cholesterol-campaign/ He is a Scottish doctor. Check out his website here. https://drmalcolmkendrick.org/ He and Vinnie both experienced Wikipedia white-washing. 'Vegan warriors' and the like tried to get him removed for being a 'cholesterol denialist'. It's all so arbitrary. He believes we are designed to eat animal meat, and it is completely healthy. He's, however, not attacked by the vegans like Vinnie is. He's been called a 'statin denier' by these ridiculous attack groups that don't know what they're talking about. Dr. Kendrick does not think statins are the right course of action for most. Statins have horrible side-effects and cholesterol is not necessarily a bad thing. Dr. Kendrick has conducted and studied many data-driven, credible studies. These studies found that those with higher LDL lived longer. Looked at 19 studies . People said it was wrong but had no reasons that it was wrong. Cholesterol can be a good thing. Saturated fats used in this study. Used coconut oil and saw . Cholesterol that stays the same or goes up just a bit up over time is an indication of good health. However, stress and cholesterol can seem related. Consider things like smoking, though. He agrees that there was no evidence for all of that 'science' the US put out regarding diet and health. Dr. Kendrick is putting together the true causes of cardiovascular disease and diabetes. There are so many lies, and he wants to expose the truth. Also, check out his book, A Statin Nation, here. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1786068257/ref=dbs_a_def_rwt_hsch_vapi_taft_p1_i0 FAT DOC IS OUT Go watch it now!

Healthy Intermittent Fasting with Dr. Tony Hampton - Episode 1606 Jun 19, 2020

Show notes

: Episode 1606 – Dr. Tony Hampton joins Vinnie for a second appearance on the podcast, and the two talk COVID-19 in Chicago and comorbidities, healthy intermittent fasting and cognition, running on ketones, giving yourself a chance, and more on this Friday show! Https://www.vinnietortorich.com/2020/06/healthy-intermittent-fasting-dr-tony-hampton-episode-1606 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS Pure Vitamin Club Pure Coffee Club Evamor Water Villa Cappelli F Bomb Crowd Cow DR. TONY HAMPTON Check out his website here! http://drtonyhampton.com His first appearance on the show can be found here. https://vinnietortorich.com/2018/09/diabetes-diet-dr-tony-hampton-episode-1151/ He practices in Chicago. As a city, they're doing okay re: COVID-19. He's doing a lot of telemedicine visits. He particularly serves African American clients and has always wanted to do so as an African American physician. People only seek things that justify their approach. THAT'S a huge issue with health. People aren't willing to hear that they're wrong. LOOK for alternate opinions and delve into them. Dr. Hampton is a straight shooter - These are the facts, here is the evidence. Here's what to do with that. We have to change our diet, then we can reverse the disease of Type 2 diabetes. Give yourself a chance! HEALTHY INTERMITTENT FASTING Dr. Hampton is quite an expert when it comes to this. He deals a lot with patients who have diabetes. IF can improve cognition. Ketones are a cleaner fuel source than any other. It improves your memory. It'll force your body to make new cells; this can be good if your family has dementia history. If you're on the sugar train, cut off sugars and grains, then slowly transition into IF if you want to. If you're doing IF, you still can't eat crap while you eat. He tells patients to do it slowly. Stretch out breakfast from 7 to 8 to 9, etc. You need to allow your body to get used to using ketones as your primary fuel. If you don't do this, you might feel that keto flu.

Show notes

: Episode 1605 - Andy Schreiber joins Vinnie on this Wednesday show, and the two talk daily aerobic exercise, getting out of the house, caffeine boosts, and more! Https://www.vinnietortorich.com/2020/06/daily-aerobic-activity-getting-outside-episode-1605 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS Pure Vitamin Club Pure Coffee Club Evamor Water Villa Cappelli F Bomb Crowd Cow DAILY AEROBIC EXERCISE An hour of aerobics a day is good. Make sure you keep moving. Walking is excellent daily exercise. Think of manual laborers and fitness, for example. Being on your feet all day is good for you. Low impact and low energy aerobics is the fountain of youth. Rowing is amazing exercise if you can find a rowing machine! You can still get outdoors safely during the pandemic, just be mindful. Coffee is an ergogenic. An ergogenic is something that can help you in any physical endeavor. Many you are not allowed to use in competition––caffeine is even limited in international competition. Drink some coffee before a bike ride or a run. FAT DOC IS OUT Go watch it now! We need people to buy and review for it to stay at the top of iTunes pages.

: Episode 1604 - Vinnie Tortorich and Anna Vocino host this Monday show, and the two talk NSNG® restaurant 101, horrid weight loss drugs, Shania Twain, and more! Https://www.vinnietortorich.com/2020/06/nsng-restaurant-101-episode-1604 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS Pure Vitamin Club Pure Coffee Club Evamor Water Villa Cappelli F Bomb Crowd Cow NSNG® RESTAURANT 101 Now that restaurants are opening back up, let's talk restaurants. You CAN eat out and stay NSNG® compliant. Avoid many sauces and dressings. For salad, get olive oil! That's all you need. If a side is a grain, ask for a cruciferous or leafy green vegetable on the side instead. You can get a burger, just ask for no bun. It's certainly harder to eat out at Asian restaurants (many sauces have sugar and bad oils) and Mexican restaurants (it can be hard to say no to chips!). Don't feel left out if your friends or family is eating these things. You are being healthy! FAT DOC IS OUT Go watch it now!
