Lowering the Bar - Episode 2827 07/15/2026

Lowering the Bar - Episode 2827 Episode 2827 - Vinnie Tortorich and Chris Shaffer discuss lowering the bar when identifying obesity, smoking weed, and the effects of less sleep. https://vinnietortorich.com/2026/07/lowering-the-bar-episode-2827 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS YOU CAN WATCH THIS EPISODE ON YOUTUBE - Vinnie's workout videos are available to purchase!

(3:45) He spent time with his best friend since childhood, and they ended up chatting about Jim’s health. Jim is ready to make some changes. The obesity rate has been coming down from its all-time high. (19:00) These metrics were taken between 2024 and 2025. However, childhood obesity is 20%, but in the 1970s, it was 3 or 4%. But what is considered obese has been redefined. (24:00) Lowering the bar doesn’t make things better. Also, the numbers were gathered by Gallup (people self-reporting), not from doctors. The introduction of GLP-1s is credited for these numbers, but that may not be accurate. (30:00) However, they still don’t seem to be a long-term solution because people abuse GLP-1s. Sleep has more impact on weight gain than you may think. (40:30) Less sleep can cause more cravings, among other things. Holy crap, we spent money on this study? (48:00) Result: Smoking weed is bad for your health. Daily smoking of weed holds the same risk of lung cancer as daily smoking of cigarettes. It’s not the substance; it’s the inhaling of smoke.

Vinnie encourages people to go out and live life by trying new things. (4:00) There’s a recent drug, similar to a statin, called Repatha. But is it better? (13:00) Statins were originally developed for specific heart-related issues; however, they have now gained traction as almost “normal,” even though they weren’t intended to be. Please do your own research and advocate for yourself, because no one is coming to save you. Society has normalized taking meds instead of normalizing better health. Pure Vitamin Club has revamped its website and added more offerings! (24:00) Anna has an update on her grocery store plans: Eat Happy Kitchen is pulling out of Kroger's Western divisions. (33:00) Kroger has decided to reduce the number of sauces it carries and is going for non-premium items. Be sure to go to Kroger-affiliated stores and buy up what you can! Anna’s products are moving forward and earning certifications to ensure customers know Eat Happy Kitchen can be trusted to be the best! She is still trying to get into other grocery store chains, however. (35:00) A recent medical journal article was sent to Vinnie. The article’s headline suggests people are poisoning themselves with semaglutides. Is that accurate? (42:00) The article suggests that several weight loss drugs were released before side effects were clearly understood. Movies, rom-coms, and Christmas movies vs. not Christmas movies?

TO PURCHASE VINNIE'S WORKOUT VIDEOS, CLICK THIS LINK: Why Food Matters Dr. Philip Ovadia is a cardiologist and heart surgeon. Heart disease is still the number one killer in the United States. (6:30) Dr. Ovadia's first book is a best seller you can find in Vinnie's book club: Stay Off My Operating Table Even athletes in what appears to be extraordinary good health can still suffer from heart disease and cardiac arrest. (14:00) Heavy carb cycling or loading could be contributing to it. (16:00) How important is monitoring LDL only? (25:00) Small, dense LDL particles are important to monitor. Statins lower the large-particle LDL, which is the healthy form, but not the small-particle LDL. Insulin resistance and chronic inflammation are drivers of “bad” LDL. Dr. Ovadia explains how Repatha works. (30:00) He also explains some complications during its trials. A challenge of the Western medical system is that specialties have become too compartmentalized. (35:30) Pre-Order Dr. Ovadia’s second book. Pre-orders are important to the algorithm. (Stay Off My Kitchen Table) He shares a story about his friend and ghost writer, Joshua. (41:00) Pre-order Dr. Ovadia's book using this link: Dr. Ovadia explains the importance of knowing what food goes into your body and what it does (or doesn’t) for you. The vegan diet is propaganda. Dr. Ovadia explains. (54:00) Technology and testing methods have improved, and imaging is now clearer. Also, you may not be limited to dealing only with a local doctor; telehealth may now be available to you. You can also find Dr. Ovadia on socials and at iFixHearts.com.

(3:00) Is alkaline water helpful, or is it a scam? (16:30) The likelihood that it actually does anything is slim to none. Trying to add extra hydrogen molecules doesn’t seem likely to do anything. In addition, sometimes solvents are added to water to make it more alkaline. They discuss other health claims that have been inflated. An element that will make a difference in your health is good-quality magnesium. (26:00) Vinnie shares how magnesium has helped his father over the years. Hidden ingredients are often in vitamins through the use of “proprietary blends.” (56:00) Just like “natural flavors” in foods, ingredients can still hide chemicals and bypass the need to be listed separately.

(18:00) You can purchase your own through Vinnie’s website here: The World Cup has exposed visiting Europeans to ranch dressing, and they are trying to take the bottle through the TSA checkpoints. (29:00) Little do they know that the bottled versions contain ingredients that are probably banned in the European Union. What they need is Anna’s spices to make their own. Vinnie has recently gotten back into archery. (34:00) If you need coaching, get coaching. You can progress better and faster. This is a general rule of thumb, not just for archery. A good coach is intuitive and can see nuances in behavior. Anna has been traveling again. (46:00) Social pressure around eating carbs is big. There are always questions about eating low-carb and about her Eat Happy Kitchen business. Fifteen years in, it feels like the low-carb message is just now getting a foothold. (51:00) But people still think it’s unsustainable. We often tell ourselves lies about how closely we are following a low-carb diet, too.

TO PURCHASE VINNIE'S WORKOUT VIDEOS, CLICK THIS LINK: Reclaim Kids from Tech NOTE: This discussion speaks about various violent crimes. Parental discretion is advised for children. Dr. Lisa Strohman is a clinical psychologist, attorney, and author. Distractions have increased, especially as cell phone cameras have improved. (3:00) In addition, social media is a major challenge. At the same time, most people don’t understand how AI actually works. (17:30) This raises an important question: What are we giving up for convenience? Critical thinking skills are being diminished. Writing by hand activates the brain’s neural pathways; in contrast, AI encourages a more passive state of the brain. Dr. Strohman researched the Columbine tragedy in 1999. (34:00) Concerning trends show signs of increased narcissism, reduced empathy, and lower levels of oxytocin (a key bonding chemical). (36:00) As a result, many kids raised on tech and social media place less value on other humans, and certain apps make this worse. News spreads instantly, and memories of current events fade quickly as the next story replaces them. (47:00) Negative interactions are increasing; let's refocus on teaching how to be good humans. Society leans heavily on tech because it's easy; however, that’s not necessarily a good thing. (1:05:00) Remaining Vigilant Safety settings on social media and other platforms are largely an illusion. (1:08:00) Dr. Strohman’s team participated in a product liability case against Meta, involving the grooming of minors. (1:10:00) Pornography changes the brain in a harmful way. Another key point is that ads are deliberately targeted at children as young as 8, unless parents are extremely vigilant about filtering. Other high-profile violent cases are discussed. Again, parental discretion is strongly advised. (1:18:00) Dr. Strohman is working to restore control to the parents. “Harmless tech” is not harmless.

The American Journal of Public Health recently published an article that highlights the connections between the marketing approaches of Big Food and Big Tobacco. (13:00) Lunchables are marketed as having a good amount of protein; however, the breakdown shows otherwise. (19:00) Big Food’s entire goal is to get you addicted to their products. (28:00) You can find a book focusing on this topic in Vinnie’s Book Club on his Amazon page. The book is “Salt, Sugar, Fat” by Michael Moss: It appears that the American Heart Association finally agrees with what Vinnie has been saying for years: exercise is a poor way to lose weight. (43:00) Exercise is king for health and longevity! However, you need to eat real food, too. Another epidemiological study on meat consumption; however, it compares processed meats (like salami, pepperoni) to white meat, such as chicken (not processed). The comparison is off, so the outcome is off. (50:00) For a recent study on drinking tea, the article included all kinds of caveats, but the article about meat did not.

(24:00) Vinnie doesn’t like to judge other trainers, but…. (27:00) He witnesses BS bro-science all the time at the gym and gives an example of it.

(35:00) It has been shown that high sugar diets can affect memory.

(10:40) Grip strength can be an indicator of health, and it can be measured. Why not do something simple that will help your strength? Obesity is a large driver in increasing cancer rates in people under 50 years of age, especially colon cancers. (28:00) Exercise improves certain biomarkers in kids. (33:33) Parents can help at home by keeping junk food out of the house, but ultimately, kids need to decide for themselves. Speaking negatively to them about weight issues can cause different problems. Carbs like bread, pasta, and grains can cause weight gain, even when keeping below a caloric range. (44:00) Calories in, calories out is not the end-all, be-all. Even eating low-carb can cause you to gain weight if you’re adding too much to a meal. (46:00) Do not think you can pound even healthy food and not gain weight. A vast number of nutritional studies have been conducted, but not in humans; consequently, findings from studies in mice do not necessarily translate to humans.

(3:00) The problem with Google is that you can “Google yourself right,” so you can always find confirmation bias. There is a growing awareness of what constitutes a “clean” product. (17:00) For example, Anna’s spices do not have fillers, preservatives, or anti-caking agents. Vinnie shares a story about a recent consultation. (28:00) CAC scans (calcium score test) are a great guide to see if heart disease will be an issue for you. Repatha was recommended even though the patient’s numbers were great, and his calcium score was zero. Consider exploring natural supplements and lifestyle changes to manage cholesterol. The Cholesterol Code movie by Dave Feldman provides good information on cholesterol levels and the benefits of a low-carb diet. Anna goes over some bloodwork numbers and wants to discuss with her doctor. (50:00) Remember that the number ranges given in the results are representative of the general population. (52:00) It is often recommended to take CoQ10 alongside a statin. Statins deplete CoQ10, which can lead to muscle damage. Anna’s products are now linked to PureVitamin Club’s website.

(4:00) Some forms of GLP-1s caused weight loss, but up to 60% of that loss was lean muscle mass, which is detrimental to health. (12:00) Different brands focus on different goals; however, weight and muscle loss can vary across brands. If you lose weight naturally, without assistance from GLP-1s, you may lose only 15-25% of your muscle mass. (15:00) The best thing doctors can do is also teach people how to eat properly, as the likelihood of staying on a weight-loss drug long-term is low. It is recommended that you start working out on Day One of your program. Don’t wait until after you lose weight. (23:30) Recommend protein intake. (27:00) The older you are, the greater the challenge of keeping muscle mass. Eggs are an excellent source of protein. (37:00) Whole milk is associated with lower rates of childhood obesity. (40:30) A recent study from the U.K. came up with a health suggestion that seems a little iffy. (50:00) The liver is a meritocracy. (55:00) Sucrose and fructose affect the liver differently, but neither is good for the liver.

TO PURCHASE VINNIE'S WORKOUT VIDEOS, CLICK THIS LINK: Cracking the Code Dave is the creator of The Cholesterol Code documentary, which was recently released in April 2026. (3:00) Dave is an engineer and citizen scientist who has studied cholesterol for years. (5:30) It is a great documentary that addresses high cholesterol in an easy-to-follow manner. It also addresses the benefits of the ketogenic diet and how it may affect people differently. Nick Norwitz is well known for his N=1 experiment in lowering his cholesterol through a dietary regimen. (17:00) Dave explains Nick’s experiment and the significance of the results. The experiment is not advocating eating junk food. It was a comparison and a data collection method. They discuss Dave’s passion for doing a deep dive into cholesterol to create the documentary. (31:00) It took a while for Dave to convince others that it was a study worth doing. Lundquist and Dr. Matthew Budoff spearheaded the study. The study had 100% completion rate with 100 participants. Dr. Richard Bernstein was a T1 diabetic who decided to monitor his own blood sugar regularly and developed a system to do so. (58:00) But he was dismissed because no doctors believed people would bother to measure their own blood several times a day. But now both the study data and the documentary The Cholesterol Code are available, and people can become better educated.

Ultra-Processed Foods & ADHD - Episode 2800 05/13/2026

Ultra-Processed Foods & ADHD - Episode 2800 Episode 2800 - Vinnie Tortorich and Chris Shaffer discuss the effects of ultra-processed foods and ADHD, making school lunches better, and more. https://vinnietortorich.com/2026/05/ultra-processed-foods-ADHD-episode-2800 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS YOU CAN WATCH THIS EPISODE ON YOUTUBE - Vinnie's workout videos are available to purchase!

TO PURCHASE VINNIE'S WORKOUT VIDEOS, CLICK THIS LINK: Ultra-Processed Foods and ADHD Airline travel can be complicated and frustrating. 2:30) The US Department of Health and Human Services plans to release an official definition of ultra-processed foods. (8:00) Vinnie shares what processed versus ultra-processed foods are. (9:00) Ultra-processed foods damage your focus even if you otherwise eat healthy. A recent study in Australia measured the effect of processed foods on ADHD. (12:30) For every 10% increase in ultra-processed foods, there was a measurable drop in people's ability to focus on cognitive tests. A 10% increase on average was equivalent to that sandwich-sized bag of potato chips! The FDA has stated that up to 70% of children’s diets come from ultra-processed foods. (20:00) New York has rolled out a pilot program to reduce UPFs, and although it's early, the results are impressive. They discuss “Postum propaganda” from decades ago. (25:00) Some of the recommendations for schools, although they aim to move in a better direction, still need to include more real protein and healthy fats. (35:00) Your body can have a type of “muscle memory” and “fat memory,” and yo-yo dieting demonstrates this effect. (38:45) Approximately every seven years, every cell in your body has turned over. (40:00) But it turns out your immune system has a “memory” as well, and even though you may have lost weight, your body may still see you at risk. Vinnie is not a fan of GLP-1s because your body can get to a healthier point without having to take drugs. It may not happen as quickly as with drugs, but the side effects are not worth it. (41:35) The “no duh” award this week goes to the study that confirms getting a variety of exercise is good for you! (43:16) They discuss pickleball.
