NSNG® 101: The Food List - Episode 2442

Episode 2442 - On this Monday's show Vinnie Tortorich and Anna Vocino review NSNG® 101 with the food list, give you some motivational reminders, and more. https://vinnietortorich.com/2024/01/nsng-101-list-episode-2442 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 MOTIVATIONAL REMINDERS They give a mini tribute to singer Melanie. (3:00) Eric Couch (@BamaBass on X) lost over 100 lbs., but his weight loss slowed down and Vinnie's gonna talk with him. (7:30) Anna reminds us that today is what is most important—stop dwelling on any mistakes you made earlier. (9:50) Do whatever it takes to keep you motivated. (10:00) Vinnie talks about the Rocky Balboa movie he watched recently; even Vinnie needs to be motivated sometimes. Anna talks about getting her sauces into a new store with the help of Kurt Lepird. (16:00) Starting NSNG-- start with the pantry and clear it out. (19:45) The best way is to dive in—it will be most effective. They give other suggestions regarding temptation and when you live with others who aren't NSNG. Anna shares what some of the challenges were when starting NSNG. (23:30) Out of sight, out of mind helps. THE FOOD LIST Anna reads a fantastic list of what she has in her pantry to get you started. (28:00) There are things like nuts that, although considered NSNG, can be overdone. Pay attention to your hunger cues and any rogue snacking. Vinnie always says you can not eat any food with impunity; his friend Don is an example. Anna continues the list of refrigerated items, like dairy. (39:00) If you're not a baby, you don't need dairy; however, dairy (like cheese) is considered NSNG. She gives a disclaimer about meat--buy what you can afford. (42:15) Anna's new NSNG Italian cookbook is coming out later this year, but you can preorder it! Go through Vinnie's Amazon link from his book club to find it at VINNIE'S BOOKCLUB The Super Bowl is coming up. Anna's got tons of recipes for game day! Vinnie explains the sugar in bacon. (53:30) Anna's list is not necessarily comprehensive here, so you can reach out to her on X to ask questions. (56:30) She continues with the veggie list and gives clarity on items like sweet potatoes and squash. They chat about fruit and using citrus to add acid for flavor—that is different from drinking a glass of juice. Don't forget—olives and avocados are fruits! There are freezer items: make room for meats and for saving bones for broth! (1:02:15) Do not use bones that someone has eaten off of as those will hold bacteria from saliva. Once you start making your broth, you'll never go back to boxed broth. Anna's recipes are so good—it makes her happy when people tell her that they didn't use to like cooking, but now they do! (1:05:00) Stay away from grain-free items such as cassava and tapioca flours and starches and they will mess with your goals.

(2:00) Did you know that 79% of foods in supermarkets have BPA and 99% have phthalates—hormone-disrupting chemicals? (3:30) BPA doesn't necessarily mean contaminant-free; others are called BPS, BPF, and others. Vinnie recounts Mike Keen's story about kayaking around Greenland and gathering seal poo for research. (9:00) In one of the remotest places on earth, even plastic was found in seal poo. Pay attention to your products like sunscreens, soaps, and other hygiene items. (18:00) Dr. Anthony Jay reviews his professional experience. (24:00) They discuss various other products that can cause hormone dysregulation, particularly estrogens. Anthony discusses how ubiquitous various plastics are; they are in all kinds of paper products because they are used as coatings.

Vinnie asks Anthony his thoughts. (40:00) They discuss natural testosterone replacement. (45:00) Testosterone has a lot of functions in the body. Soy estrogens: there are conflicting opinions as to whether it is beneficial or not.
