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
Lipoprotein A:
