TACO BOWLS

  • Check out the video of this podcast on Youtube.
  • You can watch Anna make a taco bowl.
  • She's using the whole hour, but really it only takes 15-20 minutes to make.
  • Don't drain the liquid off of your meat.
    • Get all that good fat! 
    • 75/25 grassfed ground beef is the way to go.
  • Taco bowls/salads are a great, easy and flavorful meal.
    • Vinnie likes them in the morning, too.
  • Anna makes her own salsa for these bowls.
    • And her own taco seasoning!
      •  
      • Spices will keep your meals interesting.
  • She starts with olive oil to cook her veggies -- if she's just doing the meat, she won't add oil first.
  • Radishes can give you some crunch.

STATINS AREN'T A CURE

  • Vinnie would suggest trying to find a doctor who will help you avoid statins.
  • There is so much misinformation about cholesterol numbers out there and what constitutes healthy cholesterol numbers.
  • You need cholesterol, and having a high number isn't necessarily a bad thing.  
    • In fact, your brain needs cholesterol to function -- or it will make more!
  • If you really wanna figure out if your cholesterol is good, 'total cholesterol' is not the number to look at.
    • A good ratio is very important!
  • Doctors then push statins on people without looking further into their numbers.
    • They're even prescribing them prophylactically.
      • Even great doctors do this, they're just following the charts.
  • Statins might keep your cholesterol artificially in a 'good' range, but it's a bandaid -- not a cure.
