Episode 2388 - On this Monday's show Vinnie Tortorich and Anna Vocino discuss how to keep moving forward, how sugar feeds cancer, and more. [libsyn_podcast id=28126607] PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS Pure Vitamin Club Pure Coffee Club NSNG® Foods VILLA CAPPELLI EAT HAPPY KITCHEN YOU CAN WATCH ALL THE PODCAST EPISODES ON YOUTUBE - @FitnessConfidential Podcast How to Keep Moving Forward Anna shares a wise reminder that applies to most things, including fitness and health: This Too Shall Pass. (2:00) Vinnie discusses a recent consult with "Judy" and what things were happening that have stalled her weight loss. (2:30) He doesn't like the word "plateau," because your body is always doing something. What it does depends on whether you are doing negative or positive things. So you need to keep moving forward! Anna brings up Bulgarian Split Squats and they discuss how to improve them. (6:00) She also brings up other fitness challenges that are happening, especially during menopause. Vinnie still works out to failure and loves the calm feeling it brings. They chat about sleep, too; as a result, they talk about how magnesium helps. (12:30) Sugar Feeds Cancer Getting calories on people when they are dealing with cancer or similar things is difficult. (14:00) Often people just need to keep their weight on when their appetite is gone. Vinnie is dealing with 3-4 people right now who are fighting cancer; he shares his personal advice—but reminds us he is not a doctor. He describes his own experience during cancer regarding appetite and food. He recommends staying away from sugars because sugar and other carbs feed cancer. (19:30) However, if a person is struggling to eat during chemo, they need to keep weight on and they should eat what they can. Because at that point, their body needs something to have energy to fight. He also recommends desiccated liver capsules; but only the fatty kind. He makes other recommendations with protein, too. Anna reads a label sent in by listener Kristy Smith; the label is from Nestle Health Science. (23:30) As you can guess, it's pretty much an abomination. It's a mix of bad ingredients with added vitamins and amino acids; however, the added supplements are less than two percent of the ingredients! (27:00) Cancer grows out of damaged cells; when mitochondria get damaged, cancer grows from that. (28:00) After the ad for Villa Cappelli, the best olive oil on the planet, they switch to football talk. (40:50) This leads to a chat about the late Jimmy Buffett and his legacy on the planet. (43:00) Anna shares her two cover options for her upcoming Low-Carb Italian Cookbook. (44:30) Don't forget to check out Anna's Eat Happy Kitchen Substack, too!
