PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSOR Pure Vitamin Club Check out the new broad-spectrum magnesium supplement LISTENER ANNE Found Vinnie's podcast from the Adam and Drew show (her husband heard Vinnie and relayed his message to Anne, as she used to be addicted to sugar) Vinnie will be back on Dr. Drew's show soon and on Adam's big show! Has read books such as Fat Chance by Lustig Anne wants to get lean and cut (she is already thin and beautiful) Marathon runner! HOW DOES FRUIT PLAY A ROLE IN NSNG? Because Anne had a sugar addiction, she wants to be careful about eating too much fruit In the morning, Anne will have mixed berries with chia seeds, coconut and some almond milk and eat that with egg/vegetable dish For lunch Anne will have some meat and salad without fruit At night, Anne will have some apple and grapes with almond butter, etc. Anne hasn't broken the cycle but she is close Her body is still using fruit to bridge the sugar gap She needs to break the fruit cycle then she can go back to fruit later on once the "hanger" after dinner stops Sugar causes our body to release grelin which makes our feelings of hunger come back Eventually, once Anne's body becomes more fat adapted (this is not the same as in ketosis), fruit can be re-introduced without the same effects Harder to become fat adapted while eating fruit Becoming fat adapted can take anywhere from 15-60 days You won't be hangry anymore No pain and no pangs Better to stay away from the more tropical fruits Berries are the best!! Lowest Glycemic Index WHAT ABOUT LACTOSE? Everyone is different You have to test it, and if you plateau and/or gain weight while drinking milk nd eating lots of yogurt, try cutting it out and seeing what works You have to tweak your body to buy into ketone bodies Once your body figures everything out, you can re-introduce, etc.
