PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS Pure Vitamin Club Pure Coffee Club Thrive Market Villa Cappelli EATING MEAT Vinnie and Anna received a Twitter question about gout Will bacon give you gout? First off, Vinnie is not a doctor Gout: a type of arthritis caused largely by inflammation Often affects the feet You know what causes the most inflammation? SUGAR! Doctors often think gout and red meat are corollated This is because BEFORE you are fat adapted, your uric acid will initially rise However, once your body has crossed over, the levels do not stay up Someone else asked about animal fat! We love animal fat at NSNG Vinnie will cook his food in bacon fat or duck fat Animal fat is great for you We encourage meat eating over here Meat is a great fat and a great protein Protein shakes are BS
