Https://www.vinnietortorich.com/2020/06/turning-your-life-around-low-carb-episode-1597 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS   LOSING WEIGHT DURING COVID-19 During Coronavirus, he has lost over 10 kilos, or about 25 lbs! Take this time, or what's left of it, to make mindful eating decisions. If you've fallen off the wagon, get back on.  If you've eaten really clean during lockdown, figure out what worked well for you and stick to it. TURNING YOUR LIFE AROUND At his heaviest, he was right around 400 lbs at 6 feet tall -- 5 or 6 years ago. He got down to around 265 lbs using other weight loss diets, but they didn't work. His weight jumped back up to around 350 lbs and his blood pressure was dangerous. It started with walking and listening to low carb podcasts. He believes this has added 30 to 40 years on his life. Now, he weighs around 175 lbs. His brain function, too, he thinks, has improved. He also loves that he feels full for so much of the day! There's no longer need for snacking or cravings for unhealthy food. He thinks it's changed his health, his family life, his professional life, and more. FAT DOC IS OUT Go watch it now!

He focuses on insulin resistance which is the root of nearly all non-contagious chronic diseases. Seeing this as the paradigm can help us detect, prevent, treat these diseases. Check out that book here: What is insulin resistance and do you get it? Why does it matter? And what's it about? 88% of adults in the US were found metabolically unfit in a study out of UNC. Just because people are thin does not mean they are metabolically healthy.  Starting kids on healthy, not super sugary food is an incredibly important place to start. Try to create some simple principles for your kid. It can be hard because kids naturally want junk food and their friends will likely have it. Just make sure they eat healthily while they're around you, but don't make food a punishment or reward or anything like that. FAT DOC IS OUT Go watch it now!

Additionally, we use touchless paper towels, soap, trashcans, etc. Our Vitamin D is also back in stock on our website! Our warehouse is catching on backorders on Amazon, so probably about 10 days until Amazon is back on current time for Vitamin D. Everything's available in Europe.

: Episode 1594 - On this Monday show, Anna and Vinnie discuss country western music, Steven Tyler lookalikes, workout tips, avoiding pain, cycling on rollers, and more. Https://www.vinnietortorich.com/2020/05/workout-tips-avoiding-pain-episode-1594 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS   WORKOUT TIPS You may have shin pain from walking for awhile. Definitely be careful to avoid shin splints. If you change surfaces or your strike, this can cause shin splints. Try to make sure your butt is underneath you. If other parts of you hurt, think about whether it's because the parts that aren't hurting are simply stronger. When you start a new exercise, start slow and then slow down a bit. Don't roll out your muscles or bands for too long. This can actually be damaging. Vinnie recommends yoga balls to roll.  Some soreness is okay–it means you're using those muscles, but you should never be in a lot of pain.  Plus, if you're in a lot of pain you're less likely to keep exercising.

: Episode 1593 - On this Sunday School episode, Gina Grad and Vinnie Tortorich talk the Carolla show, COVID-19 comorbidities, losing weight in cities across the country, and more! Https://www.vinnietortorich.com/2020/05/covid-19-comorbidities-episode-1593 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS   COVID-19 COMORBIDITIES Several comorbidities have appeared to be quite prevalent with this pandemic. These include diabetes, hypertension, and other diseases that result from obesity. We need to fix this problem, and this pandemic has demonstrated it more than ever. Nobody wants to be fat and unhealthy. We have to get your good intentions back! As a result, it does seem people are more frequently having this conversation about health and what really prevents these sort of diseases. Doctors have recommended staying away from sugars and eating a more NSNG® diet, including doctors who have previously advocated for less healthy ways of eating. This is an unfortunate wake-up call for many. 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. Please also share it with family and friends!

Vinnie and Anna discuss the glory that is , how to spot bad trainers at the gym, and the  Https://www.vinnietortorich.com/2020/05/ best-of-prancercise-splenda-more-episode-1592 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS   PRANCERCISE This form of "exercise" is defined as "A springy, rhythmic way of moving forward, similar to a horse’s gait and ideally induced by elation."
