Blood Type Diet

Matt says:

I have a friend who’s done his blood work and claims his health advisor (not sure of their role) suggested they steer away from ruminants because of their blood type. Allegedly, “beef and venison causes inflammation, my recommended proteins were chicken Turkey rabbit squirrel and fish.” Do you have any literature on the blood type diet, and is there anything to it? I’m almost exclusively beef + fruit, but I’m curious for my friend.  -Matt

Vitamin Capsules and additives

Question from Ralph:

hi robb and nikki - love your show

What do you think about veggie capsules and additives added to them like sunflower lecithin (from seed oil) and microcrystaline cellulose etc.?

I have read that hypromellose veggie capsules are like plastic or glue and can lead to headache, poor nutrient absorption, dehydration, constipation and fatigue. Small amount per capsule, but can the accumulated effects be negative if taking a number of capsules over a long time? thanks. Ralph

The Road Not Traveled

Mark says:

Hi both,

Love the show. You've helped me in many ways. Thank you.

Listening to a few older episodes, as a passing comment, Robb has mentioned a few times that he once considered joining the military / having a crack at becoming a SEAL.

(Though I appreciate this was never _deeply_ explored, it seems to have been a back-of-mind consideration.)

Robb having turned 50 last year, how does he look back on this life decision / counterfactual?

Any regrets not exploring it?

I'm asking as someone who's recently turned 30, and is considering (with what feels like a closing window of opportunity) joining the military as a reservist.

Many thanks for any thoughts shared on this,

Mark
