Labeling Lies Matter
- Scott, a listener, was in horrible shape, but a family member called CPS services because they were worried for his well-being. (2:00)
- They thought he was going through a mental health challenge because he was eating healthfully and trying to become active.
- Protective Services observed him for 3 months to ensure nothing was wrong.
- But now, the family is on board. (7:00)
- The ridiculous viewpoint appears to be that a person must be mentally unstable for trying to eat low-carb and for eating more healthfully. (11:00)
- Vinnie’s “Dirty Keto” documentary was prophetic. Companies had started marketing products labeled “keto” that were still junk. (17:00)
- Lawsuits are popping up based on claims made on certain keto product labels.
- LMNT electrolytes is being called out for the use of things like maltodextrin hidden under the canopy of “natural flavors.” (21:00)
- It’s interesting to see people start to push back against Big Food. (27:00)
- “Keto Certified” is not something the FDA actually does.
- Washington, D.C, is one of the most expensive places to live in the United States, and it’s not a coincidence that it’s filled with luxury shopping areas. (37:00)
- Back to the RFK fitness challenge video (link below for reference). (43:00)
- https://vinnietortorich.com/RFKHEGSETHCOMPETITION
- Some view it as unfeasible for most people, so they shouldn’t even try. (45:00)
- The moral of the story is to try something new and set goals. Get started at the level you can begin now, and set incremental goals.
- The goal isn’t the problem—the problem is the limited mindset. (54:00)
