(2:00) It’s hard to believe how much time has gone by. Setting quantifiable goals is a huge help. It allows you to reassess as you progress. (4:00) The better bet is to challenge yourself to grow and progress. NSNG® 101 Part 2, but first, a little bit about the Charlie Sheen documentary, currently on Netflix, called aka Charlie Sheen. (6:30) Addiction is a constant challenge for some people. Medically guided psychedelics are an emerging modality for people to use for various issues. (19:00) Anna shares an article about a man who had cholesterol leaking out of his skin. (26:00) A man is following a carnivore diet and consuming extremely high amounts of fat—pounds of fat every day. He developed xanthelasma, a condition where cholesterol accumulates and develops yellow growths under the skin. Vinnie feels the article is a hit piece. The authors took an anomaly and made it a “hit piece." NSNG® 101: Some Common Questions They discuss not needing to track macros. (35:00) Lose the obsession with food! Tracking can be beneficial as a stopgap measure to assess where you’re at. (39:00) White potatoes vs. sweet potatoes. (42:00) The glycemic index is a factor. If you are going to enjoy a small portion of sweet potato, boiling it is best. Nuts and nut butters are good, but can be overdone, so be careful. (49:00) In terms of fat and carb content, pili nuts and macadamia nuts are the best. Pecans and walnuts are next, but get plain raw ones, as roasted ones are often in seed oils. (54:00) Almonds are good, but cashews and pistachios are higher in carbs. You’ll be able to join the NSNG® VIP group when it reopens soon! If you are interested in the NSNG® VIP group, register here!
