Vinny Lingham: Why “Healthy” Foods Don’t Work for Everyone | DSH #1724
Digital Social Hour
Fasting Strategy and Muscle Preservation
Vinny explains his 13–16 hour daily fast, occasional 36-hour fasts, and preserving muscle when fasting.
What if the health advice most people follow is backwards?
In this episode, Vinny shares his personal health journey — from early Bitcoin adoption and high-stakes poker to radically changing his diet, tracking inflammation, and questioning mainstream nutrition advice.
We talk about omega-3 vs omega-6 ratios, seed oils, processed foods, crypto cycles, risk management, and why testing your body matters more than following dogma.
This conversation includes:
• Why inflammation became his main health focus
• Cutting seed oils and ultra-processed foods
• Tracking biomarkers instead of trusting headlines
• Carnivore vs vegan debates (without ideology)
• Poker, performance, and mental stamina
• Early Bitcoin adoption and crypto risk cycles
• Why going “all-in” is usually a mistake
• How incentives shape food and finance systems
This isn’t advice.
It’s one person’s data-driven experience — and an invitation to think critically.
