What are your thoughts on HMB supplementation (Beta‐hydroxy‐beta‐methylbutyrate) for 55-65 year olds who are casual athletes and work full time? Trying to keep up the muscle tone as it is rapidly decreasing is a serious concern. Thank you, Sharon Seed Oils in Kids Foods Allison writes: Hey guys, long time follower (my husband and I) , and I’ve even purchased one of your courses and have been respecting your knowledge since 2009. I’m 41 and have three girls 5, 3, and 8mo. I’ve been carnivore for 7 weeks now, but for my family we are pretty meat-based and I post a lot on IG and in my stories about good products I find for my kids that are clean and low sugar, good oils, etc… I post because I’m in a mom group of about 150 women of kids ages 7 and under and am on the board and so many of them follow me on IG. I’m trying to educate and help in a positive way. So I was at the playground with some friends of mine today and all our munchkins. I brought cheese and organic crackers and the topic of seed oils came up. A friend asked about what my thoughts were on High Oliec Safflower oil. I am not well informed on this oil but I said well it sounds like a seed oil and it’s probably like all other seed oils so we would probably avoid it. But with kids foods it’s almost impossible to find any that are super clean. We discussed how we all try our best to make things homemade that are nutrient dense and free of the crap, but often we need good choices to provide a decent snack at let’s say a park or play date. I listened to your podcast about seed oils when eating out once in a while, but I just don’t know what you all feel about them in your foods, specifically kids foods. For instance my organic crackers have organic palm oil. My friends crackers were just whole wheat, high Oliec safflower oil and salt. How as moms do we navigate these ingredients when we just don’t know what oils are worse? Is there a hierarchy of bad to worse seed/plant oils? I make sourdough for my kids and will probably just make them crackers soon here. But it’s real life, we can’t do this all the time. Is this like make or break it for you when you shop for products (theoretically)? Any suggestions? Any opinions? Thanks! Cardio/Endurance Doug writes: Hey Robb and Nikki obligatory love and follow you guys since you had 6 listeners gesture lol former rebel had to cut costs hopefully be back again soon now to the question I've started playing hockey again at 38 years of age after taking 20+ years off everything seems to be going ok the skills are most rust but coming back recovery from games isn't as bad as I thought it would be I can usually walk the next day lol but the thing I'm struggling with is endurance hockey is basically 60 min HIT training session where you skate as hard as possible for 2 minutes and rest for 2 minutes unfortunately I only last 30 seconds no jokes needed here and by the 3rd period I'm shot lucky to have enough in the tank for one rush up the ice. So the question how do I increase endurance for such a game not sure running 5 miles a day will help and frankly I hate running. Any help would be much appreciated!

I especially love your updates on homeschooling, etc. Please keep them coming when you care to share. You guys are awesome!! Quick statement/question.... Tinnitus is NOT fun. Do you have any thoughts on dealing with it? Would LMNT help? I already have all my health pillars checked and am doing great at 61 years of age, but this ringing is getting gradually louder, and I want to turn the volume down on it so to speak. Thank you!!! Hydrogen Water Steve writes: Hi Robb and Nicki (aka Hubs and Wife). First of all, thank you for all that you do. You are making a difference! The health influencers have been talking a lot about hydrogen water as of late. Looked into it a bit and looks like there may be some benefits, but would like your thoughts. Highly touted machines seem to be in the $2k-$4k range, while the smaller portable ones are much less expensive. I'm doubtful of the cheaper ones. We have a child (19 years old) who is dealing with much fatigue, brain fog, etc. He lifts heavy (probably overdoes it 7 days a week, and goes hard), as well as overeats (hard gainer). So I'm guessing his inflammation levels are high and maybe mitochondrial damage issues? He also has horrible sleep habits and seems his circadian rhythm is off. We've been doing everything we can to figure it out and try to get him to a better place. MD's, Functional Medicine practitioners, acupuncturists, etc... Blood tests came back normal (but maybe there are some markers we should be checking that weren't tested). Also started him on a keto diet (mostly carnivore) to see if that helps. With all that said, I was wondering if the hydrogen water is something we should explore. If so, any machine brands you could recommend? P.S. Can LMNT be mixed with the hydrogen water. We love us some LMNT! Best, Steve from Seattle Keto for dementia Becky writes: Hi Robb & Nicki-- Long time, first time. :) I am a 45 year old female, about 80 lbs overweight, but my bloodwork is pretty darn good. (Total cholesterol 203, HDL 65, Tri's 52, BP 118/72 on average). I was 365 lbs 10 years ago, and now I'm around 225 (5'5") through a low-carb paleo diet. I feel pretty good besides my thighs chaffing from the 10-15k steps I get everyday. I usually eat during a 16:8 window. My feeling is that I could fast and diet down to a healthy weight, but I can't sustain longer fasts without bingeing. I can, however, stick to low carb pretty easily. Here's the crux of my issue: my mom is 64 and getting dementia. She's always maintained a healthy weight and is very active. From what I understand, the doctor is concerned about her fasting glucose, A1C, and Triglycerides. He put her on a CGM, but she wouldn't use it. I am concerned for myself because I don't want dementia. Is keto good enough to help ward off dementia, or do I need to lose the weight, too? I've failed so many times to get under 225, but I can't give up if the extra weight is going to contribute to mental illness. Many thanks for your work.

  • Collagen and Joints, Modify Estrogen with Diet, Electrolytes and Respiratory Rate | THRR182

    Collagen and Joints, Modify Estrogen with Diet, Electrolytes and Respiratory Rate | THRR182

    Please Subscribe and Review: Apple Podcasts | RSS Submit your questions for the podcast here News Topic: Separate gut-brain circuits for fat and sugar reinforcement combine to promote overeating Show Notes: Knee over toes guy Clip with Water and Rice experiment Questions: Dietary changes to suppress estrogen Dana writes: Hi, Robb and Nicki! Thank you for all you are doing in the health space! I am a long time listener and appreciate your podcast! I am 51 years old, 5'4", and 145#. I am fit, and have been competing in CrossFit and Functional Fitness for a long time, including some international masters competitions. I have eaten a paleo diet since 2016, and added dairy to that in 2020 when my whoop told me my recovery was better every time I had dairy. More recently, my diet is leaning toward carnivore, but I still do eat fruits and vegetables, just not as frequently as before. Unfortunately, I was recently diagnosed with stage 1 invasive ductal carcinoma (breast cancer). I underwent a bilateral mastectomy on 3/18/24 and will be seeing the medical oncologist for treatment planning on 4/12/24. I know your podcast can not give medical advice. My question is regarding dietary changes that could reduce my estrogen levels. My cancer was estrogen positive. Through conversations with my surgeon, as well as the breast cancer groups I have recently joined, it is likely the medical oncologist is going to recommend I start hormone blockers. I would prefer to find ways to reduce my estrogen with lifestyle changes vs medications if I can. I am in perimenopause, so my total estrogen is lower to begin with. It was 43 pg/ml when it was tested in January. So, my question - Is there anything I can do dietarily or with other lifestyle changes that can reduce my estrogen levels? Thank you so much for your assistance. I look forward to hearing your answer! Dana Electrolytes and respiratory rate Colette writes: "I have a question about electrolytes affecting respiratory rate. I got a notification from Apple Health that my respiratory rate had gone up over the last 10 days from an avg of 13.7 breaths a minute to 15.9. I’ve never received that particular notification from Apple before and I’m wondering if it correlates with me starting LMNT around the same time. I did a google search and did see that salts and water along with a list of other things can affect respiratory rates so I wanted to check to see if I should cut back on the amount I’m using (1 packet a day)or be concerned?" Supplementing collagen for joint pain Ann writes: Hi Robb, I’m wondering if you could shed some light on the efficacy of adding collagen to treat knee pain/arthritis. I’m 61 years old, normal weight, low carb diet, regular walker, and I resistance train 3-4x/week. After a lot of years of sports, running etc I’ve developed some pretty bad knee pain and have been advised that knee replacement surgery is in my future. I’m not really on board with that and have been experimenting with red light therapy and recently added collagen supplements to my diet. I followed the advice of another individual in the low carb/wellness space and ordered from a particular company. While the product seems fine so far (I think its too soon to see improvement), the over-the-top aggressive daily emails and constant pushing of other products are starting to make me think there something scam-like going on. My understanding is that it’s important to get types I and III, bovine, grass fed, hydrolyzed collagen, but I’m having trouble finding objective advice that isn’t promoting a specific company’s products. I’d appreciate any advice you can give. I’m a big fan of LMNT and I appreciate all you do. Thank you Ann Sponsor: The Healthy Rebellion Radio is sponsored by our electrolyte company, LMNT.
