Danny and Maura Vega are two of the superstar parents featured in my upcoming Boundless Parenting book.   They are the founders of Fat Fueled Family LLC, a blog, podcast, and YouTube channel dedicated to leading a movement that empowers families to eat better, move more, and grow closer. I interviewed Danny, the author of the children's book series Unexplainable Adventures, the first fictional, character-based series of growth and development books geared specifically for children. After working as a basketball strength and conditioning coach, Danny spent ten years in the medical device industry before starting Fat Fueled Family LLC. If you are searching for a holistic parenting approach where food, education, relationships, movement, spirituality, and the outdoors all hold an equally important space in your child's upbringing, you will love this episode. The Vega's are very purposeful when it comes to the food they eat as a family; we get to learn what foods are out, what foods are in, and why. They are also purposeful and passionate about the kind of schooling their children experience, learning from mistakes as they go. I enjoyed our quick chat about different kinds of "unschooling" methods and great resources that can help parents choose.  I am a huge fan of creating Rites of Passage for my children. It's important to involve children in Rites of Passage as they move through different stages of life. This gives them a sense of independence, confidence, pride, and ownership over their life. Danny talks to us a bit about the Rites of Passage that he's laid out for his sons.  For the full show notes, visit: https://bengreenfieldlife.com/vega Episode sponsors: Essentia: Essentia organic mattresses are the only mattress to score best on eliminating all sleep-interrupting stimulants.

[12:00] Adaptations during pregnancy, hormonal shifts [13:00] First part of pregnancy is anabolic, Mom starts storing energy for later, usually an increase in insulin sensitivity. [14:30] “Trust me, if ketosis killed pregnancies we wouldn't see many women in the second trimester.” JS [14:30] Second part of pregnancy is catabolic, the body breaks down to feed the baby, usually a decrease in insulin sensitivity, leptin resistance  [17:00] “Glucose crosses the placenta but insulin doesn't” JS [19:30] Carbs and pregnancy truth [21:00] “Why don't we keep these patients where they have normal glycemia?

The last few months have highlighted that fact that we’re fighting an all out war on our freedom. Between the government, the environment, and what we eat, we’re being subject to a multi-pronged attack on our rational thinking and consciousness.    Through optimization, we can protect ourselves.      What we eat and how we live our lives are the biggest determinants of our health, our ability to think clearly, and function as sovereign individuals and families. The government wants to keep us fat, sick, and dependent on their drugs because we’re easier to control and manipulate that way.  What are some of the structures that make us more prone to this manipulation? How do we remain empowered in a world that’s trying to clamp down on our freedom?  In this episode, I’m joined by husband and wife, parents and founders of Fat Fueled Family, Danny and Maura Vega. We discuss how to make ourselves stronger and more resilient against the poison of today’s existence.  Three Takeaways  Two factors to watch in any diet There are thousands of healthy diets that work differently for different people. We should keep our focus on maximizing metabolic flexibility and insulin manipulation, especially as we age.  Why we should think twice before going veganOur microbiome was not designed for us to eat plants full-time, and ultimately the agenda of the organizations pushing veganism is all about money and control.  How to treat food as a tool to keep our minds sharpIf we’re not eating the right way, our brains aren’t going to work well, and that makes it so muc Guest Bio-  Danny and Maura Vega are the creators of the Fat Fueled Family, a blog, podcast, and YouTube channel dedicated to leading a movement that will empower families to eat better, move more, and grow closer.

At this point, we've heard of many adults following the ketogenic diet to great success, but what about developing children? When Danny Vega, an active athlete who received his M.S. in Human Performance from University of Florida, discovered the ketogenic diet in 2016...he never looked back. With so many years of pushing and stressing his body, experiencing the benefits of reduced inflammation, improved mental clarity, and overall well-being, Danny knew then that low-carb nutrition was a key pillar for his health. His ketogenic lifestyle also made an influence on his family, including his young children. They all follow the keto diet, genuinely love it, and report similar yet varying benefits that help each member prosper in their own way. Maura Vega (@fatfueledmom), suffered from eating disorders, body dysmorphia, and postpartum depression...keto corrected all of that. Dean, the youngest, has had astounding improvements in his eczema and mood. Desmond, the eldest, felt an immediate increase in energy and improvement in his allergies and asthma. In this episode, Geoff and Danny have a balanced chat about ketogenic nutrition, fitness & muscle-building, philosophy, public education, and much more.

Part One of my interview with Maura and Danny Vega!   Danny Vega:  I grew up in Miami, Florida and I have always been interested in nutrition and fitness. Ever since I was a young kid, I wanted to be a “strong man”.  In high school, I was the starting runningback for my football team, and led the county in rushing yards. I then went on to receive my bachelor’s degree from Columbia University in 2004, where I was a member of the football team and a three-time Dean’s List recipient. After college, I pursued my Master’s of Science in Human Performance from the University of Florida, where I worked with the national championship men’s basketball team, along with women’s basketball, tennis, and golf programs. I then went on to become the Strength & Conditioning coordinator for VCU basketball, helping the Rams win the 2007 conference championship and making it to the second round of the NCAA tournament. To read a Richmond Times Dispatch article on my approach, click here.  I have been out of collegiate Strength & Conditioning for almost a decade, but I have continued to compete in sports such as crossfit, powerlifting, half marathons, and now rowing. In June of 2016 I discovered the ketogenic lifestyle and I never looked back. I found so many benefits within a week of switching, that I knew this would be my new way of life. Inflammation and injuries from years of playing on turf and beating myself up with heavy lifting were gone. I regained control over my hunger and found a mental clarity and increase in productivity that I had never experienced before. In August of 2017, after over a year of dipping their toes in the water, our two boys joined us. Desmond, our eldest, felt an immediate increase in energy and improvement in his allergies and asthma. Dean, our youngest, has had astounding improvements in his eczema and mood. Our children are immune to cravings. It has been an amazing thing to see. We thought our kids were “picky” just like most kids supposedly are; keto changed their taste buds and now they crave real, nourishing food like the recipes you will find on this PDF. Best of all, they do not feel restricted in any way! We understand that transitioning the family can be challenging, so we hope this blog helps you conveniently transition your entire family to a low carb lifestyle so that you, too, can experience all of the profound benefits we have! Maura Vega:  I’m Maura Vega, or as many of you know me, Fat Fueled Mom. I grew up in Miami, Florida, and was a dancer for most of my life until I graduated high school. I was classically trained in ballet, jazz, and contemporary. I competed throughout high school winning multiple team and individual awards. I found my love for fitness once I graduated high school and started college. Unfortunately for me (a curvy latin girl), the body type that was in style back then was tall and thin. Being a dancer, there was always focus around the way I looked and I always longed to have that tall and thin figure. I’ve been dieting since high school and it has been quite the battle over the years. Eating disorders and body dysmorphia have plagued me for as long as I can remember. I’ve experimented with vegetarian, paleo, and IIFYM. It wasn’t until I found the ketogenic lifestyle that I was finally able to heal my body and repair my metabolism, as well as my mind and my relationship with food. I started Keto in June of 2016. After a 2 year battle with Postpartum Depression after the birth of my youngest, I knew I had to make a change. I was eager to get off medications and I knew that the ketogenic lifestyle was my only hope. I have now been keto for almost 2 years and I’m happy to say that not only have my depression symptoms been drastically reduced, my anxiety has also improved, I feel the best I’ve ever felt and it continues to get better. Seeing how impactful this lifestyle can be on our bodies, I decided to help transition my children to this healthy way of life in hopes that it would relieve them of some of the ailments they had. I now eat for health and performance, and I never feel deprived. I haven’t binged or restricted food since I started back in June of 2016. Our boys have now been keto for a little over 8 months and I’m happy to report that not only has my oldest found relief from his asthma and allergies, but we’ve also witnessed a major improvement in our little one’s mood and eczema. They are still kids, so they have treats at birthday parties and special occasions; we don’t want them to feel left out. However, we have seen how powerful keto is at fixing broken relationships with food. Our oldest rarely is phased by treats he passes by; he truly does not crave them. My little one spit out half of his Halloween candy last year because he didn’t like it. It is absolutely amazing to see these changes in my children, knowing that I’m setting them up for a lifetime of success.  I’m so happy that my family and I have found this amazing way of life. With our Fat Fueled Family blog, we hope to spread our love for keto to other families who have the same goals for their family by making it fun and easy!  We hope you enjoy our content, and we look forward to sharing our family’s journey with all of you!

Knowing all about healthy diet and nutrition is one thing but how do you take all that you learn and apply it to yourself and your own family, especially when it comes to raising your children in a healthy way? This podcast talks about incorporating routines, training and a healthy diet into your family as a whole. Bio: Danny and Maura Vega are Miami natives who now reside in Tampa, Florida. Danny was the starting runningback for his high school football team and led the county in rushing yards. He went on to receive his bachelor's degree from Columbia University in 2004, where he was a member of the football team. After college, he pursued his Master's of Science at the University of Florida, where he worked with the national championship men's basketball team, women's basketball, tennis and golf. He then went on to become the Strength and Conditioning coordinator for VCU basketball, helping the Rams win the 2007 conference championship. Maura had a passion for dance since she was a young girl. She is classically trained in ballet, jazz, and contemporary. After high school she found herself struggling with her weight, and spent the next several years restricting food and even went as far as trying out a plant based diet for the sole purpose of "being skinny." A ketogenic lifestyle has not only freed her of her disordered eating, but she has also found relief from severe postpartum depression and anxiety. These days, Maura and Danny can be found spending most of their time with their two boys. They have a unique way of thinking when it comes to children, and how to raise them. They unschool both of their boys who are also now following a ketogenic diet. Both boys have found relief from allergies and autoimmune issues with a ketogenic diet. They hope to inspire and change the way we see and treat children, and also how we feed them.
