We should ask Jimmy Moore that question, cause you know he’s going to have a great answer!

And true enough, Jimmy takes on sugar this week in Episode 6 of The Livin’ La Vida Low Carb Show.

Jimmy takes on the sugar industry’s claim that sugar has no part in obesity problems. And Jimmy looks at a study that may help you overcome sugar addiction.

It’s so sweet, but as they say, “If it’s too good to be true…”

We’re very happy to have Gus Caveda onboard at Grasshopper New Media! He’s bringing his hugely popular podcast along, A Better Day which focuses on health research, alternative health techniques and upbeat music. Gus keeps things pumping with great music for your workouts and provides a ton of valuable information at the same time.

Who is Gus Caveda?

Gus is a songwriter and producer who’s had several songs recorded and published with major record labels. He’s been in the music business for over 25 years, with bands Erotic Exotic and Nuclear Valdez. The Nukes (as they were also known), had a strong fan following and were one of the first bands to appear on MTV’s T.V. show “Unplugged.”

Gus lives in North Miami Florida, five minutes from one of America’s fitness meccas — South Beach. It’s well known not only for its fitness enthusiasm but also for its growing interest in alternative medicine and health issues.

In 2001 Gus helped put together a series of hypnotherapy recordings with hypnotherapist and Reiki master Charles Domm called the “Turbo Mind.” The recordings were the beginning of a new alternative health and fitness website called Turbo Day and the start of his question to bring alternative health techniques out of ambiguity and into the mainstream.

What’s A Better Day all about?

In August 2005 Gus began the weekly podcast called “A Better Day” - a show dedicated to the two things he enjoyed so much, music and health research. Each episode of “A Better Day” is presented with hi-energy music so that listeners can keep their adrenaline up while working-out and listening to some of the latest news and information on alternative health & fitness. Gus always emphasizes how important a positive attitude can be to your health and well-being.

GNMHealth.com

A Better Day is already on episode 62 - it’s got a ton of material and history, with a great, loyal audience. We hope to take it a step further, continuing to delivering what the community wants and growing that community through our health channel network - GNMHealth.com.

We’re super excited to have Gus onboard and we hope you’ll check it out and enjoy!

I’m not sure there’s a lot of research out there on how quickly a podcast will grow, but I don’t know if any of us expected to see Jimmy Moore’s 4th episode of The Livin’ La Vida Low-Carb Show surpass 1,000 downloads! It’s at 1,212 right now.

We’re so thankful for everyone that’s listened to the podcast and submitted their thoughts. I know Jimmy is beside himself. Not literally, but he’s really, really happy.

It’s great to see a community form around something like The Livin’ La Vida Low-Carb Show and I can’t wait to see where it’ll take us.

In the meantime, Jimmy’s just launched Episode 5: The Awesome Power of Saying “No!”

Please go check it out and tell Jimmy what you think!

And don’t forget our wonderful sponsor - ChocoPerfection - the sugar-free dark chocolate bars make a great Christmas present.

The Great Big Small Business Show continues to roll along. We’re on Episode 14 this week which is a mashup of inspiration and information — guided in part by a listener’s question that was submitted recently.

The listener wanted to know what the best business structure for his small business would be?

Steve Rucinski and Becky McCray tossed their ideas into the mix with a couple of valuable resources, and Tony Clark (who also runs The Creative Venture podcast) includes a segment on the podcast show covering a few alternatives including S-corps and LLCs.

Hopefully we’ve helped answer the listener’s question, and we’d love to hear back from him!

The mashup part of the podcast show comes from three other contributions by Heidi Miller, Phil Gerbyshak and Jon Swanson. They’re all talking about inspiration through entrepreneurship, helping others and lighting up someone’s world.
