Food Can Either Hurt or Heal
- Vinnie and Gina spend a few minutes talking about dating apps,
having no luck, and people objectifying each other.
(2:00)
- Gina has multiple friends who have met through apps and are now married.
- Vinnie gets clear on how some of the apps work, and basically, some of the apps are people just objectifying each other.
- Gina then plays a TikTok video about a popular coffee chain and
how many grams of sugar is in its new pumpkin spice dessert coffee
concoction. (15:00)
- The video states that 185 grams of sugar is in just one drink!
- Vinnie talks about a video he did years ago where he interviewed people outside a Starbucks about their drinks.
- He shares everything he observed.
- What people don’t understand about all that sugar is that it is
damaging their mitochondria and their DNA. (20:00)
- Damaging mitochondria and DNA creates a breeding ground for cancer to grow.
- Vinnie has been avoiding sugar for 16 years and his cancer has never come back, even after he was told it would return in 5 years.
- Food can either hurt or heal you, it's up to you.
- They also discuss Jim Abrahams, who was in "FAT: A
Documentary."
- Vinnie recounts the story of Jim’s son Charlie, who was a small child suffering multiple seizures a day.
- Even though Charlie was only 2 or 3 years old, doctors had given up.
- Jim had discovered the ketogenic diet, which was a 100-year-old proven therapy, but doctors were recommending a partial lobotomy!
- They were willing to cut out a piece of his brain, but not try changing his food!
- Jim made a movie starring Meryl Streep based on a true story similar to Charlie’s.
- Look for the movie, “First Do No Harm,” (1997).
