Episode 293: Anna Vocino

Thank you for joining us for another episode of the Low Carb MD Podcast. Anna Vocino is an actor, comic, voice overer, podcaster, and cookbooker. In 2012, she partnered with the inimitable Vinnie Tortorich to co-host and produce The Fitness Confidential Podcast. Her recipes re-create gluten-free, sugar-free, and grain-free versions of everyone’s favorite foods. In this conversation, Brian and Anna talk about Anna’s dietary history and vocational history, how Anna creates a recipe using whole foods, tricks that big food manufacturing companies use to cut costs and covertly make their foods less healthy, the difficulties involved in trying to manufacture foods that are 100% free from added sugar and grains, secrets of making grain-free pasta, the effects of stress on metabolic health, the mysterious phenomenon of the French and Italian ‘diets’, low-carb July 4th recipes, and making low-carb desserts.
