(13:15) The national average for 8 through 10-year-olds in the United States is 6 hours a day on screens. For adults, it’s just over 7 hours per day; consequently, that means over 100 days out of the year! And that’s the average. (14:00) What kind of exercises can be done to improve your vision?

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 2640 - Vinnie Tortorich and Anna Vocino discuss looking for cheats, sugar industry lies, have a special guest on for meal planning, and more. https://vinnietortorich.com/2025/05/looking-for-cheats-episode-2640 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS YOU CAN WATCH ALL THE PODCAST EPISODES ON YOUTUBE - LOOKING FOR CHEATS At the time of this episode, Anna’s Eat Happy Kitchen spices are on sale for a short time. Use code BOGO25. Vinnie has been screaming about the harm that certain carbs can do for years. (2:00) He explains how a glucose spike and a glycemic load happen in the body, which can lead to insulin resistance. (6:30) The information dieticians have been giving about complex carbs has been misleading. Marketing agencies have been able to use buzzwords on products that only cause confusion. (9:30) For example, “gluten-free” and “gluten-friendly.” "Gluten-friendly" doesn’t mean anything, and gluten-free doesn’t mean low-carb. People think that their food needs to be “fortified.” (12:00) If you have cheese, you already have protein; you don’t need to “fortify” cheese; however, people are always looking for cheats or shortcuts. Anna reads comments from the sugar industry about RFK Jr.'s recent comments about sugar being poison. She is trying to effect change by bringing healthy products and yummy recipes to *everyone*. (18:00) She reads the response from the sugar industry’s Courtney Gaine, PhD; his claim of sugar consumption being the lowest ever is outright bullsh*t. (21:15) During the Lincoln administration, the average sugar consumption per person, per year, was approximately one pound; however, current estimates are at 150 lbs per person, per year. (23:15) Some research estimates up to 350 lbs per year! Jennifer is joining the show to discuss how she came up with a *year-long* dinner meal plan. (32:00) Almost no meal is repeated! Anna and Vinnie ask her for a breakdown on how she plans it--it's amazing, but she wants to make her plan NSNG® friendly. More News If you are interested in the NSNG® VIP group, register here!

Episode 2639: Vinnie Tortorich speaks to dairy farmer Mark McAfee about solving "the milk problem," the benefits of raw milk, commercial milk, and more. https://vinnietortorich.com/2025/05/solving-the-milk-problem-mark-mcafee-epsiode-2639 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS YOU CAN WATCH ALL THE PODCAST EPISODES ON YOUTUBE -  Solving The Milk Problem The legality and illegality of certain substances. (2:30) Mark is a Raw Milk Farmer and has been for 27 years. (8:00) Pasteurization kills all the benefits of milk. Homogenization breaks up the butter fat for convenience’s sake. Mark explains other things that are done to commercial milk. Mark explains how he keeps raw milk clean and maintains its benefits. (12:00) The history of pasteurizing milk in the United States goes back to 1893. Milk used to get easily contaminated once dairies entered cities.  (16:00) Cities were filthy decades ago and created “the milk problem.” Thirty to forty percent of people would die from contaminated milk in the late 1800s. Mark describes how raw milk is processed. (22:00) Mark’s farm has a lab on site that tests every batch for negative bacteria. The only benefits to commercialized milk are that it “lubricates cereal.” (24:30) Pasteurized milk is the number one allergenic food listed on the FDA’s website. Raw milk is not associated with bad digestion; it can heal the gut. (33:00) Food is the foundation of health, not medicine. (41:00) They discuss which states where raw milk is legally available. (43:00) Do your research on farms in your area, and whether raw milk is available to you or not. Mark’s raw milk is available in approximately 500 stores in California. Go to to find out more.

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.

A moment at a high school reunion made him recommit to being active. Exercise keeps you feeling better, stronger, and looking younger—it’s the fountain of youth. People who enjoy exercise focus on the benefits. Mindset and how you approach it matter. Vinnie decided to give Raw Milk a try. (37:00 Reminder: Milk may slow down your weight loss if you are trying to lose weight. Milk has lactose, and lactose is a sugar. He shares how the raw milk co-op works. Anna is doing a Venmo deal.

Use code BOGO25. Vinnie talks about a recent consultation and how information has changed. (3:30) Cholesterol numbers are an example; he gives an analogy of a function of an engine. Electrolytes are not an energy source, like caffeine, but they are necessary to keep your body functioning. (9:45) The “rules” about hydration have changed over the years, such as how much water intake is recommended. (13:00) Misinformation about how much water to drink has led to incorrect or unnecessary habits. When you drink more water than necessary, you are depleting your body of electrolytes. Electrolytes help your body function. You stay hydrated by drinking the proper amount of water with salt and other electrolytes. Thinking you need a soda or Gatorade as a “boost” isn’t a good idea. The idea of drinking more water to lose weight isn’t really how it works. The Badwater Race occurs in one of the planet’s hottest places, Death Valley. (28:00) Many of the athletes who attempt it rely on UltraSalt. Vinnie addresses concerns about getting too much salt. (32:00) There is a slight difference between sodium and salt. Salt in junk food is an issue, but it’s less about salt and more about the junk. (38:00) Anna’s sauces will be showing up in certain Kroger-owned stores in a matter of weeks. (48:00) You can go to Anna’s Eat Happy Kitchen website store locator, enter your zip code, and find which stores carry her sauces. They discuss biohacks using UltraSalt.
