Episode 2680 - Vinnie Tortorich and Chris Shaffer discuss Parkinson's disease, purpose, the marketing of sugar, and making the most of your time. https://vinnietortorich.com/2025/08/making-the-most-of-your-time-episode-2680 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS YOU CAN WATCH THIS EPISODE ON YOUTUBE - Making the Most of Your Time Vinnie had a long-term relationship with a woman who struggled with Parkinson’s disease. (2:00) He also shares a story about Ozzy Osbourne, who was always very considerate. (5:00) Parkinson’s has its challenges that appear to be less influenced by lifestyle. It can be early-onset and be diagnosed as early as age 35. This launches a conversation about leaving a legacy. (15:20) Vinnie’s main interest has been to help people with their health. Coke made a big announcement that they are bringing “real sugar Coke” back into the U.S. (29:00) This is not a better option—it’s still filled with sugar! Fruit juices are nothing but sugar. (36:00) Chris shares some trivia about the marketing of Coke, Pepsi, and Russia. (44:00) Phone screen diet update. (45:00) A study shows that kids who had cell phones or iPads before age 13 had more mental health challenges. (46:00) Has Vinnie noticed changes in himself or how he feels since using his phone only for work purposes? What goes into your body, both physically and mentally, affects what comes out. (48:00) Be wise in the use of your time! It’s not true that technology always gives you more time. (52:00) A lot of technology just makes you lazy and lose health and mindfulness. (55:00) Do something useful and with purpose! For example, make dinner at home and have it be a part of family time—connection matters. Part of the success of Blue Zones is less about diet and more about community and basic human connection. (57:00) A lot of stuff is coming up with Vinnie in August, so keep an ear open!
