(15:00) Vinnie has been in the fitness industry for forty years and has heard it all when it comes to drugs used for weight loss. A special story of a “hydration specialist” named Andrew.

Episode 2647: Vinnie Tortorich and Chris Shaffer discuss traveling, going down a bad road with GLP-1s and muscle loss, and more. https:vinnietortorich.com/2025/05/going-down-a-bad-road-episode-2647 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS YOU CAN WATCH ALL THE PODCAST EPISODES ON YOUTUBE - Going Down A Bad Road Vinnie is traveling soon and is looking forward to going back home for crawfish season. (2:30) A good road trip is a nice “mental massage.” (5:15) He shares what he packs for the road trip. All of Vinnie's businesses will be consolidated into one website soon. (16:00) Pure Vitamin Club, Pure Coffee Club, and NSNG Foods will be available on one website. Chris brings up Good Morning America and GLP-1s. (18:00) Zepbound is being touted as the most effective, but, of course, it will come at a cost. The drastic loss of muscle is a concern; after all, your heart is a muscle! Ten percent (the low-end percentage) of muscle loss in the 60 to 72 week time span is the same as 20 yearsof sarcopenia. (25:00) They give an example of a VIP member who has been slow to lose weight; however, they have figured out this person is undereating! Your metabolism can slow down if you aren't getting enough calories. It can be as simple as adding another egg or two to make sure you are getting enough. This is the challenge with intermittent fasting and OMAD (one meal a day) approaches to eating. If you allow yourself to eat a treat, just get right back on the NSNG® plan. If you aren't sure how to get started with NSNG®, get Vinnie's e-book. Chris shares some of his weight loss journey. (42:00) He discovered his wheat and gluten sensitivity after stopping eating certain foods like pizza and pasta. Now he is so well-tuned with his health, he can tell if even a small amount of wheat is in his food. Avoid processed foods; they are addictive and damaging to your health.

(2:00) People can be addicted to sugar; Vinnie has struggled with it over the years himself. He makes sure to go a very long time between any sweets, and he's figured out a method that curbs his craving. Chris reads through a questionnaire regarding eating habits and broken relationships with food. (12:30) Vinnie shares a story about making an appearance at an event with a particular celebrity, and the conversation she had with him about staying thin. (15:30) They discuss poor prepping habits that bodybuilders use. (23:00) People treat themselves in a disordered way: they do some level of overeating, then think they are going to fix it by fasting or purging. (23:00) People assume that if a little fasting is good, a lot must be better. Vinnie advises not doing OMAD (One Meal A Day) as it can cause other problems. (27:00) Know your weaknesses, set boundaries, and stick to them!

Use code BOGO25. Vinnie answers questions on X. (7:00) Chris joins the show, and they discuss an example of Vinnie's posts being suppressed. The post in question had “Ozempic” in the title. Big Pharma has power that you don't always see behind the algorithm. (15:00) They create a new post that they will use as an experiment. The best way to view the social media test post is on YouTube. They divert to their favorite political history "trolling" moments. (31:00) Anna shares some new info about her new Cheese Bites and Eat Happy Kitchen! (35:00) They should be available in about two weeks! Vinnie will be going up Mt.Whitney again this year, and like any good Italian, will be taking espresso, Anna's cheese bites, and sauce. He recommends using the Garmin inReach Mini2 to stay safe while outdoors. You can find it in Vinnie's Products on Amazon It's a satellite device that works with no cell service, so you can stay in communication. Anna has a question about infrared saunas. (46:00) There are claims around social media that infrared or red light therapy has benefits; however, Vinnie disputes it. He's a big fan of saunas, but less about infrared.

Episode 2641: Vinnie Tortorich and Chris Shaffer discuss the best time of day to exercise, keto lies and obesity, and more. https://vinnietortorich.com/2025/05/keto-lies-and-obesity-episode-2641 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS YOU CAN WATCH ALL THE PODCAST EPISODES ON YOUTUBE - Keto Lies and Obesity Introductory chat about country music and rodeos. (3:00) What is the best time of day to work out, ideally? (10:45) In Vinnie's experience as a trainer, he noticed that his clients performed the best between 9:00 am and 11:00 am. They discuss schedules and what your body can handle. For most people, the morning is best; ultimately, do it when you can fit it in. Vinnie did a whole documentary regarding various keto packaged products, called “Dirty Keto.” (18:00) You can find it in the links below--watch it on Amazon. A bread company just pitched to Chris to do ads on the podcast. (20:00) They review the label and ingredients for a particular keto bread. (24:45) People are misled by the idea of net carbs as well as other keto labeling. Ingredients are often still not good, and not NSNG®. The misleading labeling is one of the causes of obesity: people think they can eat it without concern. Don't forget about UltraFat and UltraSalt to help fuel your summer activities!

Episode 2638: Vinnie Tortorich and Chris Shaffer discuss making a comeback, how sugar is poison, hybrid meat, screen time, and more. https://vinnietortorich.com/2025/04/sugar-is-poison-episode-2638 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS YOU CAN WATCH ALL THE PODCAST EPISODES ON YOUTUBE - Sugar Is Poison Vinnie tells Chris about a couple of common phrases that he heard a lot in his younger years. (3:00) How do these two phrases relate to making a comeback? (15:00) Pure Vitamin Club has made a comeback and has everything in stock. RFK Jr. recently stated, “Sugar is poison.” This message has needed to come from a government official for a long time. (18:00) The quantity of sugar consumed per capita has multiplied over the decades. A hybrid burger, “Both”, mixes meat with vegetables in the same patty. (28:00) Vinnie doesn't like that the underlying message is that meat is bad, or at the very least, eat less meat. (30:30) Another hybrid "meat' is a chopped steak by Choppy. (33:00) Chris shares the ingredients, and it doesn't sound great in Vinnie's opinion. The desire for convenience makes people take shortcuts that they don't need to. For example, feeding cereal to their child for breakfast instead of cooking eggs. Chris has some exercise questions for Vinnie. (43:00) Another fitness influencer suggests three things to do in the gym. Vinnie discusses why the three exercises may not be optimal. He suggests instead push-ups, assisted pull-ups, lunges, or bodyweight squats. Adding cardio and flexibility is always a plus, and it doesn't have to be complex. (50:00) Vinnie discusses his “phone diet.” (53:00) He has suggestions on how you can reduce time on the phone. There are so many entertainment sources that people think they need them all the time.

Episode 2632: Vinnie Tortorich and Chris Shaffer discuss training goals and give a rundown of some vitamin basics you should know, and more. https://vinnietortorich.com/2025/04/some-vitamin-basics-episode-2632 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS YOU CAN WATCH ALL THE PODCAST EPISODES ON YOUTUBE - Some Vitamin Basics Vinnie recaps his cardio goals. (1:00) However, this year he decided to focus more on strength training. It doesn't mean he's slacking on cardio. He's prepping for another climb up Mt. Whitney in the upcoming months. They discuss “periodization" training. Vinnie switches to a recent consultation he had with a couple. (16:00) He realizes he needs to discuss the subject of vitamins more frequently. Full disclosure: Vinnie owns Pure Vitamin Club. (20:00) Today's lifestyles and stressors deplete the body of vitamins, so it's good to supplement where possible. (20:20) Vitamin B-12 is essential and involved in developing red blood cells, brain health, and DNA. There are different forms of B-12 vitamins: methylcobalamin and cyanocobalamin. Stay away from cyanocobalamin. It is a synthetic form and contains a cyanide molecule. Vitamin C is absorbed better when hooked to a fat molecule (meaning liposomal). (28:00) The reason Vinnie created a vitamin company is to help people be better. (28:30) When he was cured of cancer in 2007, he analyzed everything in his lifestyle, including the vitamins he was taking. He realized that even the high-end vitamins he had been using had crap ingredients. (31:00) Vitamin E is great to take, but take one made with tocotrienol, a better form of vitamin E. (40:15) Vitamins often work better when they are blended with the proper molecules. For example, Vitamin D3 is absorbed better when attached to Vitamin K. Two recent studies show that vitamin D can be an effective way to slow multiple sclerosis. (44:45) A specific strain of spirulina is apparently a usable form of B-12 for vegans. (47:45) Pure Vitamin Club's B-12 is sublingual, so you let it dissolve under your tongue. Follow Vinnie on X @vinnietortorich. He has been increasing content, including videos.

Episode 2629: Vinnie Tortorich and Chris Shaffer discuss making small changes, how NSNG® is the "eat real food" program, getting in more steps, and more. https://vinnietortorich.com/2025/04/the-eat-real-food-program-episode-2629 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS YOU CAN WATCH ALL THE PODCAST EPISODES ON YOUTUBE - The Eat Real Food Program Chris's fiancé has changed some of her eating and is doing great. (2:00) She made some minor changes and is feeling a big difference in how she feels. Be mindful of all your eating and lifestyle habits; some things sneak in that you think won't make a difference, but they do. For example, too much cream in your coffee, spices with additives, and processed foods (even “healthy” ones). An article from GQ magazine states there are only 5 health numbers that matter. (20:13) Vinnie states these are VO2 Max, resting heart rate, oxygen numbers, blood metrics, vitamin and mineral levels, grip strength, anaerobic strength, and flexibility. The article states VO2 Max, HRV, consistent sleep, respiratory rate, and number of steps—Vinnie agrees that that's a start. Take the opportunity to add more steps to your day, whether shopping or at the airport, there is a way to get more active. (30:00) Jenny McCarthy has switched from being vegan to being a carnivore. (41:00) Chris reads another headline about vegan burgers and recent food testing. (45:00) They discuss the research and the struggle of imitation meats, which is they will not taste nor be as good as the real thing.

(9:00) The first caller is Tim. Tim has been following Vinnie and NSNG® for a few years now. (11:30) Tim shares some of his weight gain and weight loss journey. He tried several diet programs over the years. (20:00) He had a hip replacement at a young age, and more weight crept up. Vinnie mentions AA and a few “old timers” he knows. (25:00) Every day is a decision not to drink. Vinnie and Tim discuss sugar addiction. Tim is currently down by 84 pounds. (38:15) He's 40 years old, and he feels better now than he did at 30 years old. Tim reminds himself that the body heals itself from the inside out.

(18:30) Chris mentions a second study about the perception of overall quality of life. (20:00) Nurses, 385 of them, were followed for a year and then asked for their perception of quality of life.

Food Expo West (10:00) Impossible, the vegan “meat” brand, is introducing “steak bites.” People have an impression that “plant-based” is healthier. Vinnie relays a story of getting inspired to get outside. (20:20) You can get outdoors or prepare a good meal with just a little planning and foresight. (31:00) They share some ideas and examples. There is a system of food classification called NOVA Classification. (38:00) It ranks the levels of different processed foods. They discuss what companies financially support this system and the apparent motivation behind the opposition to being classified; consequently, it's an example of “prisoners running the asylum.” An 18-year-old is taking on Big Food in a lawsuit. (48:00) His claim emphasized how ultra-processed foods are marketed to kids similar to cigarette marketing in the 1960s and 1970s. He's been diagnosed with NAFLD and type 2 diabetes at age 16. Chris mentions some of the arguments presented by Big Food, on a website called foodprocessingfacts.org (53:00) Chris reads from a list of favorite vegan snacks, according to VegNews—almost all of them are chemical shitstorms. (57:45) You need to pay attention to what you put in your body. (1:03:00) The struggle is real: processed foods are all around us and marketed as quick, easy, and palatable.

(2:30) Many of them wanted to be “painfully thin.” Chris gives the backstory of his health journey. (8:00) He used to be almost 100 lbs. overweight. He had a medical emergency that revealed some serious gallbladder issues. (11:00) He was told not to eat fat, so he filled his diet with carbs, and his weight blew up. Chris also has celiac disease. Vinnie recalls a Heather McDonald video that shows her fainting on stage. (13:30) Chris recalls more of his health story. (16:30) He experimented with veganism, a pescatarian lifestyle, then back to meat. He went low-carb and felt better almost immediately. He lost fat and gained muscle at a slower rate; he's reached his goal in about 2.5 years. Chris talks about the “milk bar” at college; in college alone, he gained about 50 lbs. (25:00) Vinnie had his own weight gain story after college until a dear friend let him know he was gaining weight. What's the difference between a friend mentioning concern for weight gain and fat-shaming? (34:45) Obese people know they are obese. No need to mention it and shame them. Chris shares a story from The Telegraph that discusses a “vegan backlash;” Britons are eating more meat again. (45:00) GenZ appears to be adopting a whole-food omnivore approach to eating.

(2:00) UPenn study references that the Keto diet can fight off cancer in early stages, and if undergoing chemo, can help with recovery. (20:00) Dr. Thomas Seyfried has been on the show discussing this. (22:00) Vinnie is an N=1 experiment of this. He believes that keeping himself in ketosis helped to stave off a remission in his cancer. He was told his cancer would return in 5 years; however, it didn't return for almost 17 years. His experience this time around was a bit different, but still better than his first battle with cancer. (24:00) He shares all the random advice he was given as “remedies” for his cancer while living in Hollywood. Hims/Hers and GLP-1s. The FDA should look at how this product is advertised without disclaimers. (38:00) Chris reviews a study suggesting that Wegovy lessens alcohol use. (42:00) They discuss why they have their doubts about this. It appears to be just another angle to try to advocate the use of the drug as alcohol use disorders are very complicated.

Vinnie has told the person they are lying to themselves about what it takes to be healthy. You can't lie yourself into a healthy diet. Using something like a GLP-1 is no different: you're tricking your body into a specific response, but if the lifestyle doesn't change, the weight will return when the drug is stopped. (13:00) We don't advocate smoking tobacco or pot because the long-term use is damaging. (16:00) However, Vinnie and Chris discuss the odd and inconsistent tobacco use rules. Fitness: are we doing it “wrong” (according to an article in the New York Times)? (29:00) So many people join the gym, but something as simple as walking is great! (34:00) Adding some weight can help, especially uphill. Get up and get moving! (39:00) Vinnie unleashes a bunch of ideas he's considering. (50:00) Interested in joining the NSNG® VIP group?

Episode-2599 - In this episode, Vinnie Tortorich and Chris Shaffer delve into the controversial topic of sunscreen, challenging conventional wisdom about sunscreen while exploring some alternatives to sun protection and protective clothing options. https://vinnietortorich.com/2025/01/alternatives-to-chemical-sun-protection-episode-2599 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS YOU CAN WATCH ALL THE PODCAST EPISODES ON YOUTUBE - Alternatives to Chemical Sun Protection Vinnie expresses concerns about sunscreen chemicals and their potential health effects. Chris Shaffer joined the discussion, bringing research insights about sunscreen ingredients and their impact on humans and the environment. (00:04:00) Vinnie discussed his long-standing concerns about chemical sunscreens, particularly oxybenzone and avobenzone. Chris provided research findings about these chemicals' effects on coral reefs and human health, recommending zinc oxide as a safer alternative. (00:09:00) Many of the chemicals in some sunscreens are hormone disruptors. (00:10:00) Aerosol versions of sunscreens are even more concern. (00:14:00) Mineral sunscreens such as zinc oxide can be good, but titanium dioxide can be a concern. (00:15:00) Titanium dioxide is used in food and other products to brighten and whiten the product. Even in small particles, titanium dioxide can cause cancers. (00:17:00) Zinc oxide is the best bet. When do you need to apply sunscreen? (00:21:50) Reapply every couple of hours, at least. Chris presented research showing that dietary factors like beta carotene, lycopene, and vitamins C and E can enhance skin protection from UV damage. Vinnie shared anecdotal evidence about dietary changes affecting sunburn susceptibility. (00:23:41) They discussed various clothing brands and products that offer UV protection, including Tilley hats, Coolibar shirts, and ExOfficio clothing. They emphasized the importance of investing in quality sun protection gear suitable to your environment (00:29.10) STETSON - AKUBRA HATS - TILLEY HATS - COOLIBAR CLOTHING - PONCHO - EX OFFICO - More News If you are interested in the NSNG® VIP group, closed for registration but you can get on the wait list - Don't forget to check out Serena Scott Thomas on Days Of Our Lives on the Peacock channel. “Dirty Keto” is available on Amazon!

Episode 2590 - On this Wednesday's show, Vinnie Tortorich and Chris Shaffer share a talk about GLP-1s and how you don't know what you don't know, and more. https://vinnietortorich.com/2025/01/you-dont-know-what-you-dont-know-episode-2590 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS YOU CAN WATCH ALL THE PODCAST EPISODES ON YOUTUBE - You Don't Know What You Don't Know Vinnie had an idea for a particular gym in his early years in Los Angeles. (2:00) Chris' goals this year. (10:00) Vinnie has a namesake! (15:00) Recent guest Joseph Raney (episode 2581, “Doing The Right Thing”) and his beautiful wife have a new baby, and he is named after Vinnie. Chris asks Vinnie's thoughts about the high percentage of people going on GLP-1s. (20:00) Time has shown that several predictions Vinnie has made over the years have been revealed to be on point. He is right about the effects of GLP-1s; the side effects will not be worth it. Muscle wasting, loose stools, constipation, and “bounce back” weight gain once off the drug are just the beginning. (36:00) More serious ones are obstructed bowel and gastroparesis (paralyzed intestines, so food doesn't pass through). There is muscle wasting, but don't forget, your heart is a muscle, too. When you regularly eat a lot of carbs, you don't realize how much of your brain fog, aches, pains, etc. are related. It becomes your “normal,” and you don't know what you don't know. Anna and Vinnie will be at Bold Fork Books in Washington, DC, on January 15, 2025.
