PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS
CHILD FITNESS
- Vinnie had seen young kids constantly stuffing their mouths
- Parents give their kids cups full of sugar
- When he was a kid, he ate healthily
- Part of why he came to LA was to get into child fitness
- He went to Nickelodeon and other channels/companies, but none of them bought it
- Wanted to discuss exercise and diet to help children
- When he brought up discussing the detrimental effects of sugar, the energy left the room
WEIGHT LOSS
- Robert lost 60 lbs sitting in a chair
- He didn't exercise, just changed his diet
- Now it's about maintenance and achieving certain goals
- Robert is 56
- A year and a half into this
- Found Vinnie via the Carolla the effect
- Robert died from a heart attack
- They saved him, but told him he wouldn't live much longer
- He changed his diet, and is now doing wonderfully
- His life flashed before his eyes, so NSNG has been easy in that the other option was death
- At first he started with "heart healthy grains" and sweeteners,
but that didn't work
- found NSNG
- Off of many of his medications
- Also should be off disability soon!
- If he knew the truth about the inflammatory nature of sugar and grains, things could have been much different from the start
