I’m telling you. It’s a SNEAKY trick they use!

And do you have any idea what “natural flavors” actually mean?

Omega 3 IRRELEVANT Unless Limiting THIS Nutrient? | Best Sources | PLANT vs ANIMAL Omega 3 https://vikingingunn.com/omega-3-irrelevant-unless-limiting-this-nutrient/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=omega-3-irrelevant-unless-limiting-this-nutrient Tue, 11 May 2021 18:12:03 +0000 https://vikingingunn.com/?p=210

You may have heard that fatty fish, as well as nuts and seeds, are great sources of Omega 3?

Well, some of these do not actually contain what may be the most important types of Omega 3!

PLUS: All of this may almost be irrelevant anyway because there’s a nutrient we consume WAY more than what’s natural that may be in a way inhibiting a lot of the Omega 3 benefits! And chances are you’re eating a LOT of that nutrient…

🤯 Our Ancestors Swapped Plants for Meat And Our Brains TRIPLED In Size 🧠 https://vikingingunn.com/our-ancestors-swapped-plants-for-meat-and-our-brains-tripled-in-size/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=our-ancestors-swapped-plants-for-meat-and-our-brains-tripled-in-size Tue, 30 Mar 2021 15:22:24 +0000 https://vikingingunn.com/?p=200

The reason our brains have TRIPLED in size may be due to our ancestors eating animal foods in increasing amounts!

Why did they change their diet? How did it affect their bodies? And does this mean OUR bodies TODAY are designed to live on a meat-based rather than a plant-based diet?? That’s what we’ll discuss in this video!

Intermittent Fasting: ppl Only Eating btw Noon-8pm May Lose Weight & More WITHOUT Calorie-Counting https://vikingingunn.com/intermittent-fasting-only-eating-btw-noon-8pm/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=intermittent-fasting-only-eating-btw-noon-8pm Tue, 09 Mar 2021 15:58:23 +0000 https://vikingingunn.com/?p=195

This is the EASIEST type of Intermittent Fasting, at least in my opinion. No need to count calories and no need to go 24h+ without food to reap some amazing benefits of intermittent fasting.

From losing weight without counting calories to even improving insulin sensitivity and blood pressure. Studies show many benefits.

Check out the video for more about the benefits as well as how to do this type of intermittent fasting!

Which fats you use when cooking is IMPORTANT as some fats may end up producing toxic substances or even oxidize within the body and contribute to heart disease (and it’s the opposite of what we’re told!!)

They’ve told us dietary saturated fat causes heart disease. Well, as it turns out, there’s no real evidence of that! There wasn’t any back when the first recommendations were made and there is none now!

This is HUGE!

We have known this for years. Numerous studies and reviews have revealed this. And people need to know!

If we’re being told by experts and authorities to limit saturated fat because it causes heart disease, it should be based on evidence, right?!

And note: the Dietary Guidelines for Americans used to have a limit on dietary cholesterol as well, though this recommendation has now been removed (no real evidence it’s bad for us). Meaning, they have been wrong in the past, so we must always ask before we base our diet on such recommendations: “What’s the evidence?”

This is a very important video, so check it out!

MYTH: EXERCISE IS KEY TO WEIGHT LOSS | Actually, it could even make it more difficult… https://vikingingunn.com/myth-exercise-is-key-to-weight-loss/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=myth-exercise-is-key-to-weight-loss Tue, 16 Feb 2021 15:50:38 +0000 https://vikingingunn.com/?p=186

The American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM) has recommended as much as 5 hours of moderate-intensity physical activity per week for long-term weight loss or MORE to prevent weight regain!

OUCH! That’s a lot of exercise… And it might not even work!

The reason we gain weight has little to do with being sedentary and everything to do with our diet. Physical activity only constitutes about 20-30% of the calories we burn, while our diet constitutes 100% of the calories we take in. Actually, our diet even influences the number of calories we burn as well!

There are also ways exercising can make ‘sticking to a diet’ more difficult, or just make the whole weight loss experience miserable…

While on the other hand, there’s a different type of exercise, as opposed to cardio, that may be better for weight loss… Check out the video!

Now, don’t get me wrong, I’m all for working out! Being fit has a LOT of benefits. It’s just important to understand what to expect from exercising when it comes to weight loss.
