Hybridizing foods isn?t necessarily the same thing as GMOs. The phrase ?organic? has been bastardized a bit, too; however, there are still rules to follow.

Food Sovereignty - Episode 2522

Episode 2522 - On this Friday's show Vinnie Tortorich speaks with farmers Natalie Kovarik and Tara Vander Dussen where they discuss agriculture, climate, food sovereignty, raw milk, and more. https://vinnietortorich.com/2024/08/food-sovereignty-episode-2522 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS YOU CAN WATCH ALL THE PODCAST EPISODES ON YOUTUBE - Managing the Landscape The political landscape has been on fire lately, but knowing that there is a steadiness between the extremes is comforting. (2:00) Natalie is a cattle rancher and Tara is a dairy farmer and have been involved with agriculture for decades. They are co-hosts of a podcast called ?Discover Ag? discussing agriculture and where your food comes from. (9:00) They discuss some of the challenges they encounter, such as animal activists. (11:00) The fringe sides can drum up a lot of attention. When it comes to food, science and emotions are put on the same level. (25:00) They discuss the conversation over the decades about fat, cholesterol, and the health of meat. (29:00) Food Sovereignty and the Climate The discussion about carbon footprints is also a challenge. (34:00) Carbon emissions for farming are nuanced; there are many factors to consider. It?s not just ?carbon in, carbon out.? Ruminants keep soil healthy enough to grow food. The truth is nature is harsh, but society has been molded by ?the Disney effect.? (38:00) They discuss the climate over 100 years ago. (43:30) Lab-grown or cultured meat is gives a false sense of being better for the environment, yet it takes all kinds of energy to make it. (45:00) There is not enough data available to tell what the implications are, let alone make claims of ?benefits.? Vinnie shares his inspiration for ?Beyond Impossible.? Countries having food sovereignty is important. A ?food patent? raises the question of who gets to own the source of food for others. (49:00) A good example of what happens with this is how Big Pharma controls meds and their cost and availability. They share an enthusiasm for rodeo and bull riding. (58:00) Educated Food Choice Raw milk vs. Homogenized milk. (58:00) They are for food choice. Pasteurization was crucial to food in history at one time.

(3:00) He also explains how athletes were using blood doping, especially in cycling. (8:00) Vinnie explains why he went to the Mammoth?it can help his blood cell count by using altitude changes.

He didn?t do Whitney as planned and used his time to relax a bit more. (16:00) He also appeared on two podcasts for Mike Rowe and Adam Carolla. They reminisce about friends Ozzie, Gina?s dad, and the many talents of the brilliant Serena Scott Thomas. (20:00) The Softening Of Humans Vinnie brings up a topic that he knows he?ll get some pushback on. (29:00) What he witnessed in Mammoth is very different from years ago. Many people are visibly out of shape; however, he is glad to see them out and challenging their bodies. What annoyed him was the number of people who were riding motorized bikes, and never using the pedals. It's just another example of the softening of humans.

Check out the video on the YouTube channel, where you can watch Anna work her magic. They continue their conversation from the previous episode regarding ?plateaus.? (20:30) The reality is, that your body is always doing something, so there isn?t really a plateau. People snack while bored, and snacking creeps up on you. Anna has some nut recipes on her Substack. Things like alcohol sneak back into the diet as well. Even NSNG foods can?t be eaten with impunity. (29:30) Allulose can also be a problem for many people. (30:00) There are a few researchers like Dr Ben Bikman who believe Allulose can be used. However, Vinnie sees real-world results of people struggling to get away from sweeteners and still advises against it. (32:00) People tend to want to jump to fasting if their weight loss has slowed down. (33:45) Fasting can become an issue for people who are prone to disordered eating.

The Sooner the Better - Episode 2505

Episode 2505 - On this Monday's show Vinnie Tortorich and Anna Vocino discuss dealing with Amazon, tendonitis, weight creep, getting off stevia, the sooner the better, and more. https://vinnietortorich.com/2024/06/the-sooner-the-better-episode-2505 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS YOU CAN WATCH ALL THE PODCAST EPISODES ON YOUTUBE - The Sooner the Better Vinnie is still trying to discover why Amazon is sitting on his documentary ?Dirty Keto? and not making it available yet. (3:00) He is only telling the truth, so why the delay? He?s realizing how much of an effect chemo has had on him. (13:00) But he knows how lucky he is compared to others who he sees struggling with cancer. He hopes to make it out to California later this year. Vinnie addresses a question regarding lifting weights and tendon strain. (22:00) Even healthy people can have tendon strain as they age. Just take a little more rest before your next workout. Taking TRT isn?t necessarily beneficial in the long run. It has been what he has noticed with clients and people in consultations. A food question about weight creep and getting back on the wagon with NSNG®. (28:30) Often it?s non-NSNG® foods sneaking back in, or overconsumption of things like dairy or nuts. Other culprits are flavored ?zero sugar? beverages, and seed oils. Wine is a big culprit for many people. (35:00) A lot of American wines have added sugar. Alcohol isn?t great for you anyway and will hinder your weight loss goals. Is stevia really that awful?. (42:00) There are benefits to getting away from it, the sooner the better. At the time of this recording, Vinnie?s new documentary "Dirty Keto" was supposed to be released; however, it has hit a delay. You can go to Vinnie's website and enter your email to get notified when it is up on Amazon. When it comes out, make sure you watch and rate it. There's a new NSNG® Foods promo code you can use!

(2:00) Often song lyrics will show how times don?t change much. Gina shares a recent experience at a hotel and makes Vinnie explain his point of view on lettuce. (6:00) Meat on lettuce is unnecessary, as far as Vinnie is concerned. Even at high-end grocery stores, premium items can still be filled with bad ingredients. Vinnie had to ask his doctor about taking an iron supplement; the doctor?s response surprised him. (12:30) Doctors are very busy and you need to be proactive in your health. It may be that Vinnie?s overall health is so good, it appears his doctors may need to monitor him less. Back to Vinnie?s ?lettuce rules." (26:00) What about smoked salmon on a salad? What about a salad as an appetizer? Vinnie never likes to feel stuffed or gluttonous, which leads to the duo philosophizing on some biblical rules.

(12:00) Michelle and her wife saw over 32 medical professionals about the cancer diagnosis, and only one made a suggestion about nutrition, and it was incorrect advice. (15:30) She shares why a ketogenic diet is beneficial and what kind of changes they made in nutrition. Being in ketosis and paying attention to nutriton can help give you a fighting chance.

They discuss how a vegan diet may make it hard to get enough nutrition. Michelle?s wife needed much fewer radiation sessions than doctors predicted. Six months later Corene is in remission. (44:00) She gives more details, including how doctors didn?t even ask about Corene?s specific diet. Michelle will be teaming up with Dr Ken Berry for a new initiative regarding diabetes.

Her background in biochemical engineering transitioned to medical school; however, her personal medical issues led her to a deep dive into health. Her book ?Dark Calories? is available in Vinnie?s Book Club . She explains the meaning behind the name. (13:00) Metabolic disease is rampant. Being ?hangry? is a sign of insulin resistance, which is a stage of metabolic disease. New standards of testing need to happen; she?s a big believer in using the HOMA-IR testing.
