(3:00) Matt is the first call-in guest. (4:30) They discuss Vinnie being on the Adam Carolla Show podcast. Matt has questions about creatine and possible water weight gain. (8:30) Water weight gain with creatine typically doesn't occur at 10g or less per day. Vinnie explains what creatine does within the muscle. Matt also drinks flavored sparkling waters and has questions about "natural flavors." Jon is the second caller. (20:00) He has questions about 50K trail races and proper fueling. Training with protein and fat is good, but during the race, a steady trickle of sugar can work. There is no real need to eat gooey bars, gels, or any of that. Stay away from the crap that is often handed out at races, since often they can make you sick and "bonk." They chat about music and learning an instrument. (40:00) The third caller is Shawn. (44:00) He gives some backstory on how he learned about NSNG® and how it has improved his life. Vinnie shares Robert Stanton's NSNG® success story. (51:00) Shawn is a nurse practitioner who likes to help his patients address the root causes of disease and has recommended dietary changes.
