The Carnivore Connection
Jim writes:
Long time, first time.
I want your understanding of the Carnivore connection hypothesis; the PubMed links are included:
https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/22235369/.
https://pubmed.ncbi.nlmThe 'carnivore connection'--evolutionary aspects of insulin resistance - PubMed.nThe 'carnivore connection'--evolutionary aspects of insulin resistance - PubMedih.gov/11965520/.
I am a layperson researching why my insulin resistance has gone up while my A1C, weight, waist, and everything else have seemed to improve. I have adopted a largely meat-based eating habit, with some fasting included. Yes, as a 5'11" male with an ideal body weight of 180-200 lbs, I average at least 200 grams of protein daily. I expected my IR to lower, but it has gradually increased as my A1C has decreased. You can explain this hypothesis better than I can write here, and I want to hear whether I understood the paper. Suppose I have understood the paper(s), again, being a layperson. In that case, I hope someone will look into gestational diabetes and see if it is the body's natural reaction to become more IR for a reproductive advantage.
Thank you for continuing to educate me.

Nootropics for kids
Kate writes:
Hi Robb and Nicki
Wondering if you have any suggestions for a nootropic that would be safe for kids? My 13 year old daughter struggles to stay focused on her schoolwork. We’ve tried caffeine, but was thinking it might be helpful to give her something more? Would love your thoughts.

Questions:
Re-feeding after colonoscopy
Kelly writes:
Hi Robb & Nicki,
I've been listening to the pod for a few years now. I appreciate your insight and banter about such interesting topics. Thanks for keeping me entertained and informed. I'm about to schedule my first colonoscopy. My question is what is the best way to re-feed after this procedure? I see it as a "clean slate" - which could be good and bad. I'd like to allow for optimal regrowth in my system. If it matters, I'm a 45yo female with 3 little kids (2, 5, & 7) with history of intermittent intestinal distress (constipation, diarrhea, gas) which was worse when I was a child and also since having kids.
Any ideas would be helpful.
Be Well,
Kelly
Many thanks
Plant Paradox
Kiira writes:
Greeting from Spokane. Thank you for all your thoughts and comments over the years. I definitely feel kindred spirits with the two of you.
My inquiry is in your thoughts and opinions Dr. Gundry’s “plant paradox”. I completely agree with him about organic, grass fed, prairie meats and wild seafood. I agree that you have to be mindful about what your food eats. My question is about the minimal amount of protein he suggests. I have reservations about his recommendations for reduced protien intake and reduced red meat intake. Just curious about your opinions on this as well as his whole “plant paradox” as I know you always have one. Thank you for your time and all that you two are doing because this world is going to hell in a hand basket!

Mitigating Junk Food Diet
John writes
We eat a meat heavy, whole food diet in our house, in part because of you and your work. However our active, fit and healthy but rebellious teenage son gets access to and generally consumes junk food. Additionally, he will be headed to college soon and will have total control over his diet. Not a good thing. My question is: what one or two things would you recommend to mitigate this, assuming that I could get him to take one supplement, or do one minor thing, but nothing that will really require effort on his part - i.e. a multivitamin for nutritional deficiencies, a hydrogen water bottle for mitochondrial support, shilajit or liver pills, etc??? I know his being young and healthy will be a big factor, but if there is an easy and effective thing to send him away with, I'd love to know. Thanks, and keep up the good work!

The Best Supplements For Muscle Growth And Health
Questions:
Building muscle without weight training
Maggie writes:
Hi Robb and Nicki,
I am sick of weight training. I spent about 12 years (2009-2021) doing some combination of bodybuilding style training or crossfit and truly loved it. However, I had a miscarriage at the end of 2021 and after the recovery from it I have never gotten back into a regular lifting routine. I also have no desire to weight train in a gym anymore or do typical resistance or weight training routines at all. However, it is ground into my mind that I must lift weights to maintain my muscle mass as I age (I'm 41 and female). I am struggling mentally on how to stay physically fit and healthy as I age without lifting weights. I currently walk 3-5 miles several times per week and force myself to lift lower body 1 day per week. I do love to hike, walk, and am interested in road cycling and rucking. So my questions are do I have to lift weights to maintain or build muscle? Is a combination of rucking, hiking, walking and/or cycling enough stimulus to achieve the muscle building and strength I need as I age? I'm most curious about rucking, because it seems like it would be a great for muscle development, but I would love your thoughts. Also do you have a recommendation on ruck packs or weighted vests to use? Thank you so much for all your advice.

Elevated ALT/AST on Keto (With Resolution?)
Chris writes:
Hi Robb and Nikki,
Sent you a podcast question back in March of this year prior to a liver biopsy with a long-winded explanation of elevated liver enzymes I've been having since I had my appendix removed in Feb '23. Lo and behold, the liver biopsy revealed no issues and I followed up with a hepatic specialist who is still scratching his head. Much ado about nothing though (I think): I went on vacation for 4th of July week (stayed low-ish carb i.e. 100g-200g net carb) and retested when I got back and my enzymes went down a significant amount, but not fully clean. They went back up after a few weeks of low carb after this. This got me curious, so when I went on another vacation in July and purposefully went off low carb for 2.5 weeks and retested: when I got back and my enzymes were actually entirely clean this time! This made me want to prove out my hypothesis of low carb (

Pain Relief for Rotator Cuff Injury
Kat writes:
Hello from Canada. Love your podcast. I've just found out Iikely have an injury/tear as mentioned above and am pending diagnostic tests. In the meantime, I've been prescribed Baclofen (Muscle relaxant) and an NSAID. Both are making me very ill to the point where I've pretty much stopped taking the meds as Baclofen is causing me to be very unstable on my legs, horribly nauseated, physically ill and feeling very groggy/sedated/intoxicated. The NSAID...I noticed lastnight I had some blood drip during an Ileostomy appliance change. I'm aware of the bowel bleed risks to myself with Crohn's and an ostomy, but after a bleed, more. As a result of choosing not to take these meds anymore, I am in excruciating agony and nothing is providing relief...hot baths, cold packs, hot packs. I cannot sleep for the agony. Every single movement/action excruciating to the point of wanting to scream. Is there a safer, easy remedy for the pain that I can try without requiring much use of my arm? Any suggestions are appreciated.
Air Hunger and Keto
Joe writes:
Hello Robb and Nikki. I have a couple of questions:
I have been chronically experiencing "air hunger" (feeling of inability to get a deep enough breath, rather than a shortness of breath) when following a ketogenic diet. Being insulin resistant, it is critical that I find a solution. My doctor pointed me to ph balance but offered no real solutions. I've since begun drinking alkaline water almost exclusively and it seems to have helped some, though not completely. I don't think this is just in my head, though my research yields a correlation with anxiety, which I do not have. Is this real thing or am I imagining things just because of my carb addiction? If it is real, any ideas how to combat it?
Next question is about LMNT. Though I've been a user for quite a while, I tend have a rather explosive intestinal response soon after ingesting it. I've tried cutting back, which is fine when not following a ketogenic diet, but when on diet I really need it. Thoughts?
Thanks!
Previous Myocarditis and MRNA shot
Marc writes:
Hi Robb and Nikki,
Long time listener, and reader from the beginning here. Really appreciate all that you do as I have made vast improvements in my life which all started with the paleo solution over a decade ago. I am a healthy, active 37 year old male, living in Brooklyn NY. I cycle 4-5 days a week, lift weights 3-5 days, play ice hockey and get plenty of sun! I eat a carnivorish, paleo type diet, with a strict aversion to gluten. Sleep is pretty dialed in, though I do enjoy alcohol one or two nights a week, but am also very aware of how it effects me etc.
When I was 20 years old I ended up hospitalized for over a week with myocarditis. I had strep throat, which was all the norm for me, as I used to get it once or twice a season until my mid 20's. The infection had actually gone down into my heart and which had caused the issue. It was a terrifying experience as they thought at first I was having a heart attack. After things went back to normal and I was discharged, the cardiologist told me to take a baby asprin every day, prescribed me nitroglycerin incase I had chest pain, and told me to "maybe try meatless Mondays, as heart disease runs in the family." I was far from thrilled with the "solutions" I was given. Long story short, it was after this that I started my health journey which eventually led me to you and the Paleo Diet. Within a month I was down 20 lbs, feeling great, and fast forward over 15 years later I never had another strep infection!
Cutting to the chase, when covid struck, I went and got the first 2 jabs of pfizer, back in early 2021 living here in NYC I wouldn't have been able to participate in life, and they dangled the carrot in front our noses, promising freedom once the shot was taken. I had not heard anything about the dangers of myocarditis being a side effect at that point, and Needless to say I was infuriated once the side effects were made known.
Its been about 3.5 years since getting my second shot, but seeing all of these healthy young people drop dead has been pretty frightening. There is also no way to "google" this stuff and get answers, we all depend on brave people like RFK Jr, and Brett Weinstein to stand up and inform us. I was wondering if you had any advice on anything I can continue to do, and/or if you think I should even be concerned at this point. I know there's probably alot to unpack here, but any advice, or information that you have would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks again for everything, and wish you all the best!
-Marc

Peptides for injury recovery
Greg writes:
Hi Robb and Nikki
Big fan and avid LMNT subscriber for two and a half years.
I have been battling patellar tendon pain on and off for about ten years. Of recently, it has been constant in my left patellar tendon for about two months now. Any loading of the joint causes searing pain . Once warmed up it's more manageable especially with knee sleeves but I really can't do any loaded squats anymore, so I have moved to more deadlifting and sled work. My question is in regards to nutritional supplements to support tendon repair. I have been doing a higher dose 20-25g per day of grass fed hydrolyzed collagen, and I want to give it a couple months to see if it makes a difference, but have been intrigued with the rise of peptides, specifically BPC-157. Any insight on peptides in the lense of tendon repair and anti inflammation? Would love to get back to running more and Olympic lifts.
Thanks!
LDL Increase after starting Keto
Walt writes:
After starting keto in January my LDL has increased steadily to 139 mg/dl. I started this diet, ostensibly, to improve my health. (Being a type 1 with two cardiac stents)
My A1C improved greatly and my blood pressure normalized with a small intervention from 5mg of Bystolic in the a.m. I was on a lot more BP meds prior. All good, right? My cardiac NP, however, is not psyched on the increase in LDL and had me speak to a lipid specialist. Lipid specialist is old school and is vehemently opposed to this diet and way of eating and started in with the whole “red meat and fats are bad” speech. My numbers:
Total cholesterol: 234
LDL: 139
VLDL: 16
Triglycerides: 81
Cholesterol/HDL ratio: 3.0
ApoB: 94

Keto/Carnivore for Autoimmune
Jacob writes:
Hi Robb,
I have been following you since 2009 in the CrossFit days and my entire diet has been based around Paleo since then. In 2020 I got very sick and couldn't recover fully, ending up finding out that I have post viral dysautonomia.
Recently I heard you talk about how the low carb version of the Paleo autoimmune protocol is really an upgrade. In the time since getting sick my baseline became low carb Paleo, and that kept me doing pretty well. Now that I have been heavily supplementing with LMNT it's been even better!
Can you try and get into the mechanics of why/how a keto-paleo diet makes such of a difference for these kinds of issues? Does it come down simply to inflammation?
Really appreciate the podcast. Keep up the good work!
Thank you
Jacob
Cholesterol…again
Shane writes:
Hey Robb and Nicki, I know you get asked this all the time and I've gone down the rabbit hole on every related podcast I could find of yours regarding this topic, but there is just so much information out there on this topic I don't know what to think, and I'm hoping you can help.
I'm 41, fit and healthy at least by any American standard. I've been involved with CrossFit (was even at one of Robb's Nutrition Seminars back in the day where I got to meet you both), coached for a decade, life happened and now I'm a Software Engineer. While my job is nowhere near as active, I still train 5-6 days a week but more of a mix of strength training, with some metcons, and regular doses of zone2. I still prescribe to CrossFit's nutrition in 100 words and so eat meat, vegetables, some fruit little starch and no sugar about 90% of the time. We're not financially set enough to be able to buy as much from the farm directly as we'd like, so meat is still typical feedlot stuff you can get at City Market etc. but I do try to hit 1.7g/lb of protein per day and fill in with the fruits and veggies.
I haven't had a PCP in forever and so decided to get one so maybe it wouldn't take 3 months to get any kind of appointment when/if I did need one and of course they wanted to do a blood panel, and I was curious too so I did. My panel came back and it wasn't great. My total cholesterol is 298, HDL is 55, triglycerides are 76, LDL is 225, LDL particle number is 2022 nmol/L, LDL pattern is A, ApoB is 162 mg/dL, LipoProteinA is 101. My doctor immediately started talking about statins so I asked about a CAC and did that and got back a score of 0.
With all of that data I'm just not sure how to proceed. I hear Dr. Attia talking about prioritizing apoB reduction, Layne Norton talking about the mendelian randomization studies showing the linear relationship between LDL and cardiac risk. But then I also hear Dr. Malhotra talking about statins and their misrepresented effect on cardiac disease along with Chris Kresser and obviously I want to believe what they say but I also want to make sure I'm not cutting the time my kids get with their father shorter than it had to be.
I quit drinking 2+ years ago, I don't smoke, and I feel like I eat cleaner now that I ever have, so I'm thinking I'll just keep on keeping on, continue getting yearly bloodwork, and go back for another CAC in 3-5 years to make sure things aren't progressing, but I'd love to hear any thoughts you have on the matter.
Thank you both so much for all the great info you put out there and please keep it salty.

Crohn's Part II
Fred writes:
Hi Robb and Nicki,
You responded to my question re: Crohn's on Podcast #156 dated June 15, 2023. Thanks again for the information. I followed up on the resources you gave me and implemented a bunch of the recommendations. My stomach has been great but now dealing with sore tendons and joints which is a side effect of the biologic meds. Anyway, I wanted to provide you some additional information because you had wondered what the "precipitating event" could have been to get Crohn's at the age of 54. Again, until this point I was incredibly healthy with no issues at all. Back to the "potential" precipitating events. March 30, 2021 I got Covid (Delta) just before the vaccines came out in Canada. I was sick but nothing too serious and then because of the vaccine mandates I had to get my first vaccine on May 12, 2021, then second shot July 6, 2021, third vaccine January 8, 2022. In August 2022 my blood pressure went through the roof. I have never had high blood pressure then in January 2022 I had major stomach issues and was diagnosed with Crohn's in March 2022. Who knows if there is any connection but its interesting that this illness came about after getting Covid and then hitting my system with 3 vaccinations in less than a year. Anyway, thought you might find this interesting. Thanks again! Fred

Hey Rob & Nikki, thanks for podcast I’ve been listening since the start and appreciate your takes on all topics in health and beyond!
I’m 34 years old and my wife is 31. We are going to start to try to get pregnant in a few months and want to get your advice on supplementation. My wife has been taking hart and soils “her package” supplement. Is there validity in taking reproductive organs to help with fertility ? We love their beef organ supplements but I want to know if there’s actual science to back the claim with the reproductive organs help.
We are very health conscious and take supplements according to our bi-annual bloodwork done by our naturopath. But would like to know if you have any general advice to help us be as fertile as possible going onto the process.
Thanks for everything

I'm sick and tired of being sick and tired. I'm three days sober, and trying to work out and diet to save my life.
The amount of information on the web on what diet to go on and how to exercise is like drinking from the fire hose.
Hoping you could point me in a generalized or even a very specific direction.

Hi Robb and Nikki, 1st I want to say thank you for all your honesty and prospective, especially on some controversial topics recently (ie politics). I truly appreciate the perspective and makes me ponder beliefs I have/had. My question: my husband recently started doing BJJ (he did it in his 20s but stopped for a good decade) and he has had short bouts of severe burning/cramping and weakness in his arms during/after BJJ. Based on how he describes it, I think he is experiencing lactic acidosis. I had him start taking beta-alanine but he hasn't felt much improvement. He uses LMNT before and after workouts so I don't think it's an electrolyte issue. Any thoughts/recommendations on how to help him prevent this? Thank you in advance

Choosing a Functional Doc
Chris writes:
Hello,
Long time fan boy... Any advice on picking a good functional medicine doctor in my local area? Google search? Anything to look for, or look out for?
I found a local MD with a long time in family medicine, who transitioned to integrative holistic medicine about 10 years ago, and then got an ABoIM about 5 years ago. I can only assume that ABoIM is a board certificate of some kind? Sounds like integrative medicine is similar to functional medicine?
I ask because I have become a moody AF little bitch after a year on a statin. My original family doc and my precision health report says the cholesterol is on the risky to highly risky side of things. I have always wanted to get off of the statin, and try the PCSK9 inhibitor you discussed some months back. Finally aiming to start that transition. Any help or advice on doc selection is appreciated!
Cheers,
