There is also a plan to bundle shows and videos for availability, for a small fee. (26:00) Some good news: The New York Times reports on saturated fat, and it's positive, for the most part. (36:00) It's a fairly neutral article, but they still don't appear to advocate for meat. In general, mainstream reporting is tipping in favor of saturated fat after decades of cautioning against it. (42:00) The challenge is that fake vegan doctors give out wrong information, as Michael Greger does. For example, he demonizes eggs, which are superior in nutritional benefits.

He also didn't feel or look healthy. Joshua ended up in the hospital for a marijuana-induced psychosis. (49:00) He has been both marijuana and alcohol-free for five years now. (5:00) During the process, he figured out he had an addictive personality. He was able to pivot his mindset, tried NSNG®, and hasn't looked back.

Episode 2736- Vinnie Tortorich and Anna Vocino discuss a healthy resolution while Anna cooks some low-carb stuffing and eggnog. https://vinnietortorich.com/2025/12/a-healthy-resolution-episode-2736 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS Pure Vitamin Club Pure Coffee Club NSNG® Foods VILLA CAPPELLI EAT HAPPY KITCHEN YOU CAN WATCH THIS EPISODE ON YOUTUBE - @FitnessConfidential Podcast A Healthy Resolution Anna is cooking in this episode, so if you want to watch the Queen of the Kitchen do her magic, please go to YouTube. (2:30) http://@FitnessConfidential Podcast Part of this episode is about resolutions; Vinnie's resolution to build a train set is underway, and he's confident it will be done before the end of December this year. Anna is cooking her low-carb stuffing, made with almond flour instead of dried bread. (7:30) You can find her Holiday Roundup of Recipes here. https://annavocino.com/nsng-low-carb-thanksgiving-round/ Vinnie has had back pain for years. (10:00) His back problems started after he began his career in ultra-cycling. (16:00) He used to go to a therapist for muscle release. This is not a paid endorsement, but he recommends "The Hook" by Aletha. It can reach into the tighter areas around your hip bones and release knots in muscles like the psoas and iliacus. Egg Nog recipe (30:30) It's a good idea to avoid heavy cream with additives. If you can, get straight heavy cream. Anna demonstrates the best way to make the eggnog from scratch. One of Vinnie's resolutions this year has to do with fixing his back so he can water ski again. He wants to be able to do the things he used to do when he was younger, such as skiing. He is inspired by an 80+ year old woman who is the oldest person to finish an Ironman. Anna agrees—the importance of mobility and strength as you age can't be emphasized enough. (42:00) Please find a way to include movement into your life and make it fun! Egg Nog special step—so pay attention (45:45) Placing Saran Wrap gently over the egg nog as it cooks will help prevent a "skin" from forming.
