The Vigandits Negatively Impact Surgical Wound Healing
A study that was published in dermit. 20 erolled 21 omnivors, 21 vegan patients who underwent surgical excision of non melonoma skin cancer. And the begans had significantly worse wound resolution and complications. O, just another it doesn't necessarily mean everybody needs to go carnivor but i, i will say this for ages a, i think you can get away with eating plants of various types,. So long as you eat enough meats of various types to keep you from getting nutrient deficient from the plants.

Robb/Nicki,
Long time listener and sharer of all things Robb Wolf. Your books and podcasts are the easiest to read and listen to. I appreciate that, being a guy whose biggest hobby is learning/understanding health, but who barely survived Biology 101. Also, thank you for being open to new ideas and evolving over your career. It's reassuring to know that you and Nicki are willing to change your stance on an issue regarding a particular food, diet, politics, whatever. When I read Wired To Eat and was introduced to the term "hyper palatable", a lot of pieces of the puzzle fell into place for me.
I'm a 47 year old male, 5'8", 165lbs. I've eaten all the diets over the years...that include meat. Never considered vegetarian or vegan. Been as heavy as 210+. Pretty good health markers today. Admittedly, I still pray that one day you'll promote an all pizza and french fry way of eating.
Okay, so I've always liked getting in the sauna (not steam room) at the gym. I believe it provides similar benefits to cold therapy, but cold therapy is...so cold!!
I've envied other who guys who would walk in and start sweating immediately (like within a few minutes). It has always taken me about 10-15 minutes to bead up and start sweating. I figured it had a little to do with how often they get in, versus me doing it a couple times per week at most.
I recently had a sauna built in my home. I've been getting in it regularly for just a month, and have noticed a significant increase in how quickly I begin to sweat. Yes, I think I've got my room a bit hotter than at the gym, but not much. I'm really enjoying it and it feels great but it's got me thinking. Is sweating "easier" really a positive effect? Or, am I just convincing myself of this like how people try to believe that eating 6 meals a day is how we're supposed to eat to rev up our metabolism? That idea (so many daily meals) has never made sense to me...why not leave my car running overnight or while I'm at work so it's good and warmed up when I'm ready to drive again...just doesn't make sense.
It's not causing me to sweat all day in normal circumstances. I don't feel warmer or uncomfortable through the day. In the mornings, I don't want to take a super hot shower like I always have, but that doesn't seem like a big deal.
So, to sweat more or not to sweat more? Whatcha think? Hoping I didn't leave too much for you to...unpack...before being able to share your thoughts. Ha! Best wishes to you and your family.
Sincerely,
BJ David
2. Celiac or not: is it worth testing to know for sure? [14:03]
Becky says:
I've been 100% gluten-free for the last year - ever since my DNA consult with Dr. Anthony Jay where I believe his exact words were "avoid gluten like the plague". Prior to that, I was occasionally having gluten when out (never at home) but have been eating a paleo-style diet for the last 5+ years. I've done a little research on the test for celiac which requires you to eat gluten in order to measure the antibodies in the blood. It sounds terrible to make myself sick eating gluten (even as much as I miss some good French bread) in order to confirm or deny whether or not I have celiac disease. However, I am wondering if it is worth it to be tested to confirm if I have it. Besides avoiding gluten, is there anything else I should be aware of or alter in my lifestyle if I confirmed that I have celiac disease? Thank you!
3. Sugar Effects Occurring Generations Later Theory [22:39]
John says:
Robb,
I thought of something yesterday. If I'm reading the theory correctly, the obesity effects of sugar could take a couple of generations to manifest (i.e. each subsequent generation is affected worse as seen in increasing obesity rates).
If that's so, why did the nutritional transition (~10,000 years ago) manifest instantly in height, bones, teeth, disease, etc and then the human race slowly adapted (hemochromatosis, lactose tolerance, amylase increase, etc)?
It seems that the sugar generational effects theory is going in reverse of the human adaptation seen in the great nutritional transition.
Cheers!
