Vinnie Tortorich #6Take a walk with me down Fascination Street as I get to know even more about SIX TIME guest; Vinnie Tortorich. Known in some circles as "The Angriest Trainer"; Cinnie is: a podcaster, an author, fitness guru, a celebrity trainer, a multiple business owner, and a documentary filmmaker. In this episode, we chat a little about why he wrote his best-selling book "Fitness Confidential", we touch a bit on his podcast "Fitness Confidential", and then get into some of his previous documentaries. Vinnie's first documentary is called "Fat: A Documentary" and was the best-selling film in the history of Gravitas Ventures. His follow up to that was "Fat 2" two years later. In 2022 Vinnie released his third documentary titled "Beyond Impossible"; where he did a deep dive into the meat substitute industry. We talk a bit more about this one, as it had some odd effects on his social media accounts. Finally we get to the goods. Vinnie's FOURTH documentary, in his words, "Goes right at the Keto community". This new film "Dirty Keto" expounds on the latest Keto fad, and what the term 'keto' actually means. He also does some digging to find out what official governing body authorizes the term "Certified Keto", and allows it to be placed on packaging. I give him a neat suggestion for this newer film, and I think he likes it! At one point he explains the glycemic index to me and why I should care. We also touch on the newest trend of freezing bread and pasta before reheating and eating it, and why this changes the glycemic scale of these foods. Finally, Vinnie shares the details of his most recent health concerns and what his plans are going forward with it. Vinie is rad as hell. He is a great guy, and has the record for the most appearances on Fascination Street Podcast! Check out his newest film "Dirty Keto" available ONLY on Amazon; beginning June 1, 2024.

Episode Summary: In this thought-provoking episode of Functional Health Radio, Dr. Kristin Hieshetter delves into the concerning trend of declining life expectancy in the USA and the rising incidence of chronic diseases among children. Drawing on her extensive knowledge and passion for functional health, she dissects the complex web of healthcare spending, lifestyle choices, and pharmaceutical industry dynamics. Dr. Hieshetter ardently discusses the critically acclaimed weight-loss drug, Ozempic, uncovering its potential risks, side effects, and the alarming association with serious chronic diseases as reported by the Journal of American Medical Association. The episode reveals a staggering 80% of Americans' desire to lose weight, the financial burden of the drug, and the troubling implications of its usage on mental health. Dr. Hieshetter infuses the narrative with a strong appeal for individual responsibility towards health and challenges the nutritional guidelines and spending policies that are contributing to the national obesity crisis. Key Takeaways: The life expectancy in the U.S. is declining, along with a high prevalence of chronic diseases among children, raising critical questions about the nation's health and healthcare system. Ozempic, a weight loss drug, is linked to several serious health conditions, yet is widely desired for its promise of weight loss, indicating a troubling dependence. Dr. Hieshetter criticizes the hidden political and economic agendas pushing unhealthy dietary standards, such as the permissibility of high sugar intake for very young children. Lifestyle choices, including food and exercise, are fundamental to improving health outcomes, and Dr. Hieshetter emphasizes natural ways to maintain well-being over pharmaceutical solutions. The episode ends on an empowering note, with encouragement towards self-love, dietary changes, and physical activity to lead a healthier, happier life.

Glycemic Index of Food - 21:40 --> All foods have a value known as "glycemic index" which basically tells you how foods interact with your body in terms of insulin release and digestion. This is an important tool to understand in your health and fitness efforts because it could be what's preventing you from burning fat, energy preservation, and/or recovering appropriately. The Difference of Fructose from Carbohydrates - 27:47 --> Fructose is a type of food that is digested differently than all foods (including other carbs). There's some new science you NEED to hear regarding fructose that could CHANGE YOUR LIFE. Carbohydrates for Performance and Longevity and Recap - 29:01 --> Carbs are not all created and digested equal. They're actually quite different with different benefits and risks.

In today's episode, we will explore research on how our nutritional environment directly influences the genetics of PCOS. We'll discuss how these factors interact, either worsening the condition or, if we strategically use nutrition to support PCOS, potentially reversing its effects and balancing hormonal levels. Without further ado, let's delve into the topic. In this research review episode, we'll be looking at a study titled "Glycemic Index and Glycemic Load Estimates in the Dietary Approach of Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome" by Mata, Pashu, et al offering valuable insights into the correlation between nutrition and PCOS. Let's dive in!The Latest Research: Glycemic Index and PCOSOur body's delicate balance of glucose and insulin is influenced by our dietary choices. High carbohydrate diets, especially rich in processed carbs and sugars, can lead to rapid spikes in blood sugar levels, triggering insulin resistance. We'll discuss what the research considers the significance of glycemic index and glycemic load in this context, focusing on the impact on insulin and androgen levels.Impact of Glycemic Index on PCOS This article shares how excess weight, particularly abdominal fat, plays a role in inflammation, oxidative stress, and insulin resistance, influencing the symptoms of PCOS and how this is related to the glycemic index of the foods consumed. This article also discusses how lowering glycemic index through dietary choices can contribute to reducing excess weight and improving body composition.Glycemic Index Strategies for ImprovementTo help you get started on understanding how foods affect your body, I will recommend tools and resources as well as discuss the limitations of lab tests for identifying and monitoring the insulin effect and metabolic health for women with PCOS. After listening to this episode you will have a much clearer picture of how insulin affects PCOS and how to practically assess this in your health and unique situation so that you can start making positive changes in your PCOS symptoms.

Welcome BACK to the Balanced Bodies Blueprint! In this episode, hosts Vinny Russo and Dr. Eryn Stansfield dismantle diet dogma. Unravel misconceptions about fats, carbs, and calories, and gain insights into a holistic approach to nutrition. Insights: *Carbs and Fats Unveiled: Understand the truth about dietary fats and carbs – they're not the enemy, and challenge the belief that carbs hinder weight loss. *Low-Carb Reality: Explore the consequences of extreme low-carb diets. Carbs are crucial for energy. *Genetic Weight Loss: Dive into a study on weight loss in high-carb and high-fat diets based on individual genotypes. *Calorie Hierarchy: Vinny emphasizes the hierarchy of nutrition, focusing on calorie intake, protein, and exercise. *Calorie Calculators Exposed: Generic calculators don't consider individual goals. Vinny recommends personalized approaches. *AI in Nutrition: While AI can assist, the human touch is irreplaceable in coaching. *Glycemic Index vs. Load: Vinny favors glycemic load for a comprehensive understanding of carbs' impact on blood sugar.

When you're making body composition changes, it can feel like you need to cut everything you enjoy out of your diet. Things like sugar and alcohol might feel like they don't belong. That's not entirely true; you can still enjoy alcohol while making body composition changes. And sugar, especially natural sugar, can have its place, too, especially when it's combined with other foods correctly.   If you choose to drink alcohol Find what you enjoy drinking Get snobby with your alcohol Eliminate excess sugar and carbohydrates   Sugar and Body Composition Pure sugar will have a pungent glucose load right into your bloodstream. This directly impacts our Glycemic Index, and you will have more of an insulin response. Insulin prevents you from burning fat, and, in fact, it puts you into fat storage mode. Eating too much sugar can also put you into insulin resistance. Understanding the Glycemic Index and how sugar and carbohydrates impact your body and blood sugar is vitally important. The source of your sugar matters, too. Fructose or fruit sugar won't have as much of a glucose effect on your bloodstream, but the best way to eat it is to mix it with protein and fat.   Alcohol and Body Composition Alcohol alone doesn't have a negative impact on your body composition changes. Especially when combined with lower calorie and lower sugar mixers, overall, there is not much of an impact on your daily requirements.  So, alcohol does reduce our inhibitions, and when our inhibitions are lowered, we are more likely to make choices that don't align with our body composition goals. I recommend drinking four or fewer drinks per week when you're in a fat loss or maintenance mode to stay in line with the body composition changes you want to make. Where do alcohol and sugar fit into your lifestyle? Let me know in the comments on the episode page.   In This Episode  What happens when we eat sugar [4:30] How insulin resistance develops [5:00] What you need to know about the Glycemic Index [7:30] The differences between natural and artificial sugars [11:00] How much sugar to eat for optimal body composition change [14:45] The impact of alcohol on body composition [20:00] What happens to your body when you drink alcohol [24:15]   Quotes “Don't let fruit be something that you're not eating because you think that it potentially will wreak havoc on your metabolic system.” [12:02] “The truth of it all is what feels good in your body. Because whatever feels good in your body is what you will sustain long-term. The key point here is that if you want to lose body fat, you need to be in a calorie deficit. If you don't want to lose any weight, you want to stay neutral, you need to be in a neutral deficit and eat for maintenance. If you're looking to actually gain muscle mass, you're going to eat in a surplus.” [17:47] “Alcohol, in general, sets our brain up to want to continue on the pathway to indulge more.” [21:44] “What I want you to stop doing is saying no to things that you would like to have and get snobby with those things.” [23:56] “Four drinks or less per week will keep you in a zone where you will still be able to efficiently lose body fat, for most people.” [25:49]   Resources Mentioned Learn About the Fit Dad Collective Join Transform Check out the full episode page here Find Life Coaching for Women Physicians Online Follow Dr. Ali Novitsky on Facebook | Instagram | YouTube Subscribe to Life Coaching for Women Physicians on Apple Podcasts Podcast production by the team at Counterweight Creative   Related Episodes  Episode 147: Alcohol and Optimal Weight Loss Episode 153: Lose Stress Not Carbs Episode 161: Barriers To Optimal Body Composition

Imagine being in the absolute prime of your life - 21 years old, going to school at Stanford to study Mechanical Engineering, playing sports for hours on end…and then, ABRUPTLY, it comes to a screeching halt when you are diagnosed with not one, not two, but three autoimmune diseases within a matter of months. Today's guest, Cyrus Khambatta, went from “soccer stud” to “chronic disease patient” in the blink of an eye when he was diagnosed with Hashimoto's, alopecia, and Type 1 diabetes in 2002.  Determined to understand everything he could about these diagnoses, especially his diabetes, he went back to school to learn the science, earning a Ph.D. in nutritional biochemistry from UC Berkeley. In 2020, he and his business partner, Robby Barbaro, co-authored the book, Mastering Diabetes: The Revolutionary Method to Reverse Insulin Resistance Permanently in Type 1, Type 1.5, Type 2, Prediabetes, and Gestational Diabetes. An educated person is an empowered person and that's our goal for today - to arm you with as much knowledge, research, and hope that you can master your diabetes with a whole foods plant-based diet that, yes, includes plenty of carbohydrates and rich diversity of luscious fruit.  Rip and Cyrus Discuss: 00:00-22:00 Cyrus's journey - How did he go from student to chronic patient in a matter of months? 22:40 Learning a new nutrition perspective from Doug Graham 27:00 Why he went back to school to find out if he was, “a freak of nature” 29:00 How can the medical establishment be so wrong with its recommendations? 33:45 Digging into the science - Let's go! 34:50 What the heck is insulin resistance? 42:20 So, if sugar doesn't always cause insulin resistance, what does? 53:20 What are the most dangerous fats and what effect do they have on insulin resistance? 57:19 The keto/paleo argument - why does it appear to work? 1:05:45 The Mastering Diabetes Way - Low Fat - 10-15% calories, 10-15% from protein, the rest should come from whole food, plant-based carbs 1:07:15 Plant-based, eat at least 90% of calories from whole plant foods 1:08:15 Keep your foods unprocessed or minimally processed 1:10:55 But, don't I need fat to feed my brain?  1:14:30 Do we need a minimum amount of fat? 1:20:00 Is diabetes a disability for Cyrus? 1:23:10 What percentage of the population is affected by the different types of diabetes? 1:29:30 Why he and Robby Barbara started the Mastering Diabetes Community 1:32:10 Is Alzheimer's now Type3 diabetes? 1:35:00 The importance of daily movement and exercise 1:42:50 What is the Hegsted equation? 1:47:10 Cyrus's thoughts on the Glycemic Index 1:53:00 What about gluten? 1:57:00 Is he a fan of caffeine? 2:01:45 What does Cyrus eat in a day? 2:04:22 What is the worst thing about having Type 1 Diabetes? 2:04:04 What is the best thing about having Type 1 Diabetes? 2:08:00 Join the Mastering Diabetes Challenge!
