V Picks Interview

V-picks have taken the guitar pick market by storm. Who have thought that picks could be so....sexy? These translucent, stick-to-you-fingers, easy-to-hold-onto, fat and toneful picks come in all shapes in sizes. No matter what style of music you play, these picks can deliver big tone, even for acoustic! Having given these picks a test drive for a few weeks at rehearsal & gigs, we can say that these picks really do stick to your fingers. They cannot be dropped due to finger sweat. Just not gonna happen. The fatness of the picks was a welcomed by guitarists using Big Stubby, Adamas and other 2mm & fatter picks. The tone was there, and the translucent color really fit the times in the style of modern simplicity. But enough introduction already. Vinni Smith, founder of V Picks, was kind enough to spend some time talking about V-Picks with us pick disciples.

The Dangers of Sugars and ‘Bad Fats’ Explained

By far the chief wreckers of our health today are sugars and bad fats. So which are the good ones and which ones are bad? My aim is to enable you to make better food choices for you and your family.

Sugars

Sugars are more than just the white grains you put in your coffee or tea. Sugars are also to be found in the caffeine in coffee, alcohol, honey, fruit juice without the pulp and peeled potatoes. Even the so-called slow sugars, such as whole grains, are still sugars.

We are the descendants of Stone Age men. By an evolutionary twist, this man was a mammal whose liver was not capable of converting sugar into vitamin C (most mammals can in fact do this). Thus we need to get our vitamin C from external sources, such as vegetables and fruit. We are not genetically equipped to deal with a whole lot of sugar.

The Many Benefits and Uses of Sea Minerals

Sea minerals and carbon chemistry

We humans are designed to take in trace elements. How does it work? Plants feed off of minerals in the soil. They will take up only those minerals they need for their growth and development. The plants digest these minerals by adding a carbon atom. When we consume these plants we eat whatever mineral traces they still contain (trace elements) plus the carbon atom. The minerals find their way into our system and we breathe out the carbon. Plants in turn use carbon as oxygen. This is simple carbon chemistry and it’s how we form a natural cycle with nature and plants.

Oceans, Plants and Humans – Closer Than You Think

If you look at our “family tree” you will find that apes are our “parents”, plants are our “grandparents”, and the sun and sea our “great grandparents”.

The ocean as a plasma

Let’s start with our great grandmother, the sea. A French doctor by the name of René Quinton discovered as early as 1897 that sea water is 98% identical to blood. Sea water needs an extra molecule of magnesium while blood needs an extra molecule of iron. Other than that they are identical.
