TO PURCHASE VINNIE'S WORKOUT VIDEOS, CLICK THIS LINK: https://vinnietortorich.com/workout A Cholesterol Conundrum Vinnie recently posted on social media about the Women's Health Initiative. (3:00) The problem with Google is that you can "Google yourself right," so you can always find confirmation bias. There is a growing awareness of what constitutes a "clean" product. (17:00) For example, Anna's spices do not have fillers, preservatives, or anti-caking agents. Vinnie shares a story about a recent consultation. (28:00) CAC scans (calcium score test) are a great guide to see if heart disease will be an issue for you. Repatha was recommended even though the patient's numbers were great, and his calcium score was zero. Consider exploring natural supplements and lifestyle changes to manage cholesterol. The Cholesterol Code movie by Dave Feldman provides good information on cholesterol levels and the benefits of a low-carb diet. Anna goes over some bloodwork numbers and wants to discuss with her doctor. (50:00) Remember that the number ranges given in the results are representative of the general population. (52:00) It is often recommended to take CoQ10 alongside a statin. Statins deplete CoQ10, which can lead to muscle damage. Anna's products are now linked to PureVitamin Club's website.

    Peptide Differences - Episode 2803

TO PURCHASE VINNIE'S WORKOUT VIDEOS, CLICK THIS LINK: https://vinnietortorich.com/workout Peptide Differences Vinnie is not above changing his mind if he gets new, reliable information. (4:00) Some forms of GLP-1s caused weight loss, but up to 60% of that loss was lean muscle mass, which is detrimental to health. (12:00) Different brands focus on different goals; however, weight and muscle loss can vary across brands. If you lose weight naturally, without assistance from GLP-1s, you may lose only 15-25% of your muscle mass. (15:00) The best thing doctors can do is also teach people how to eat properly, as the likelihood of staying on a weight-loss drug long-term is low. It is recommended that you start working out on Day One of your program. Don't wait until after you lose weight. (23:30) Recommend protein intake. (27:00) The older you are, the greater the challenge of keeping muscle mass. Eggs are an excellent source of protein. (37:00) Whole milk is associated with lower rates of childhood obesity. (40:30) A recent study from the U.K. came up with a health suggestion that seems a little iffy. (50:00) The liver is a meritocracy. (55:00) Sucrose and fructose affect the liver differently, but neither is good for the liver.

TO PURCHASE VINNIE'S WORKOUT VIDEOS, CLICK THIS LINK: https://vinnietortorich.com/workout Cracking the Code Dave is the creator of The Cholesterol Code documentary, which was recently released in April 2026. (3:00) Dave is an engineer and citizen scientist who has studied cholesterol for years. (5:30) It is a great documentary that addresses high cholesterol in an easy-to-follow manner. It also addresses the benefits of the ketogenic diet and how it may affect people differently. Nick Norwitz is well known for his N=1 experiment in lowering his cholesterol through a dietary regimen. (17:00) Dave explains Nick's experiment and the significance of the results. The experiment is not advocating eating junk food. It was a comparison and a data collection method. They discuss Dave's passion for doing a deep dive into cholesterol to create the documentary. (31:00) It took a while for Dave to convince others that it was a study worth doing. Lundquist and Dr. Matthew Budoff spearheaded the study. The study had 100% completion rate with 100 participants. Dr. Richard Bernstein was a T1 diabetic who decided to monitor his own blood sugar regularly and developed a system to do so. (58:00) But he was dismissed because no doctors believed people would bother to measure their own blood several times a day. But now both the study data and the documentary The Cholesterol Code are available, and people can become better educated.

TO PURCHASE VINNIE'S WORKOUT VIDEOS, CLICK THIS LINK: https://vinnietortorich.com/workout Ultra-Processed Foods and ADHD Airline travel can be complicated and frustrating. 2:30) The US Department of Health and Human Services plans to release an official definition of ultra-processed foods. (8:00) Vinnie shares what processed versus ultra-processed foods are. (9:00) Ultra-processed foods damage your focus even if you otherwise eat healthy. A recent study in Australia measured the effect of processed foods on ADHD. (12:30) For every 10% increase in ultra-processed foods, there was a measurable drop in people's ability to focus on cognitive tests. A 10% increase on average was equivalent to that sandwich-sized bag of potato chips! The FDA has stated that up to 70% of children's diets come from ultra-processed foods. (20:00) New York has rolled out a pilot program to reduce UPFs, and although it's early, the results are impressive. They discuss "Postum propaganda" from decades ago. (25:00) Some of the recommendations for schools, although they aim to move in a better direction, still need to include more real protein and healthy fats. (35:00) Your body can have a type of "muscle memory" and "fat memory," and yo-yo dieting demonstrates this effect. (38:45) Approximately every seven years, every cell in your body has turned over. (40:00) But it turns out your immune system has a "memory" as well, and even though you may have lost weight, your body may still see you at risk. Vinnie is not a fan of GLP-1s because your body can get to a healthier point without having to take drugs. It may not happen as quickly as with drugs, but the side effects are not worth it. (41:35) The "no duh" award this week goes to the study that confirms getting a variety of exercise is good for you! (43:16) They discuss pickleball.
