(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\u2019s 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 \u201cPostum propaganda\u201d 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 \u201cmuscle memory\u201d and \u201cfat memory,\u201d 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 \u201cmemory\u201d 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.
