There is no video for this episode. Anna tries an Epic protein bar. (8:00) Vinnie's Twitter following increased after the Carolla show, and people are asking questions. (11:30) Are peanut butter and quinoa NSNG®? Fuck Quinoa. Peanut butter is not the best butter. Cashew and almond butter are better. Peanut is a little higher in carbs and can be inflammatory for some people. Any nut butter should be eaten in moderation. What about diet soft drinks? Diet soft drinks with chemicals are treated by your body just like sugar. Artificial sugar is just as bad as real sugar. La Croix is okay; (soda) water with some fresh lemon or lime, muddled berries, or a splash of grapefruit juice is better. Check out Anna's websites for recipes! https://annavocino.com/ For her cauliflower tots, dry the cauliflower before rolling it with other ingredients. Vinnie shares some food ideas. An avocado with some olive oil. Good to slow-cook your chicken to get your broth... yummy! When traveling on a plane, he'll take some cheese and have a hard-boiled egg. Airplane food is generally quite bad. Controlling Hunger Dr. Cate is a board-certified Family Physician and is a nutritional consultant for the LA Lakers. Dr. Cate's website is (http://drcate.com/) She helps those with metabolic syndrome to get their metabolism up and running better. Seed oils, like canola oil, are damaging to your metabolism. (48:00) The process of manufacturing the oils makes them toxic (create oxidative stress). Cate believes low-carb diets are very beneficial, especially for controlling hunger. Try to avoid empty calories, but don't worry about calorie counting. Avoid rapid carb drop-off if you have thyroid problems, etc. She believes in intermittent fasting in moderation IF AND ONLY IF it works for you. (54:00) The concern with some fasting methods is people may create more problems and disordered eating for themselves. It's best to do fasting in moderation or work with a knowledgeable doctor if you have a lot to lose. People are frequently hungry because their metabolisms are damaged by bad diets and lifestyles. Pituitary inflammation can make you hungry. Anna has specific questions about fasting blood sugar and cortisol. (1:05:00). Cate defines "bad fats" vs. natural fats. (1:13:00) It's not just about vanity and weight; it's about health and what processed foods and seed oils do to the body.

1:06.3

I am Vinny Torturitin, folks. Here we are again on a Monday show. I think my mic is a little hot. After all of that, my mic is still too hot. It's the Monday show and that's when we bring, you know, the one everyone loves, the best voice and podcast radio working now or any time in the history of podcasting. That would be Anna Volcino.

Good. You were telling me off the air, you were getting ready to tell me, and I just told you to go fuck yourself. You were getting ready to tell me about your nightmare. Yeah, I had a nightmare last night. What happened? I always have recurring nightmare of dying in a plane crash. Do you really? Yeah, I do. And I had that and then I woke up and then I read for like an hour and I went back to sleep.

1:46.2

And then I had another nightmare that woke me up that was when I'd say it out loud is like way less disturbing than dying in a plane crash, but it was so real and scary while I was having it. And that was I forgot to show up today for our podcast session and you were so mad at me, you decided to never speak to me again. Okay. How often do I get mad? That's how much you mean to me? But how often do I get mad? Don't answer that. At me? At you? Probably never. Yeah, exactly. And you have plenty of reason to get mad at me because i'm

2:51.8

I can't fall asleep any other way than reading myself to sleep. I have to read something. Yeah. Me too. Or masturbate, but it's wrong to masturbate next to the woman you're in bed with. I would be too self-conscious. Like I would think I would. Yeah, I can't do that. It's like weird, like weird right yeah yeah I just feel like I would
