And we're at it again with Q&A #11 with Robb and Nicki for Episode 412 of The Paleo Solution Podcast.

1. [2:27] Valter Longo's
Longevity Diet
Wayne says:
What's your take on Longo's view that protein should be limited
because it raises IGF-1? He says that none of the populations that
have the largest percentages of centenarians consume much protein.
I understand that IGF-1 has a beneficial anabolic effect but high
levels have been linked to cancer and other chronic diseases. Can
you give us your views on this?
2. [14:30] OMAD
Eric says:
Hi Robb,
Just wondering what your opinion of eating OMAD? And is it
beneficial to still eat keto while doing it?
3. [18:18] Sun
screen
Duey says:
What are your thoughts on sun screen.
What draw backs are there to using it?
What's the risk of skin cancer if you progressively build up sun exposure and don't burn.

4. [24:25] Pulling and eccentric
exercise only
Patrick says:
Hi Robb and Nicky. First I just wanted to say thank you for
everything that you wrote and said over the years. You and others
like Mark Sisson helped me lose over a hundred pounds and keeping
it of since 2013.
My question : is there any counter indication of doing only pulling
exercise or eccentric ? I suffered rotator cuff injuries couple
years ago and no matter how careful I am everytime I tried to do
heavy push exercise, even not so heavy, the pain comes back.
My only goal at this point is to maintain as much lean body mass as
I can so I can grow old and farm coconuts with my great great grand
kids
Thanks alot again for everything
5. [28:00] Water retention during
Luteal phase
Angel says:
Hi Robb and Nicki,
I love the Q&A episodes! I find them very informative. I just
started reading Wired to Eat and its such an enjoyable read! Your
sense of humor keeps me engaged, unlike many other nutrition books
that read like text books. A little about me: I just turned 40,
5’4”, 133 lbs and metabolically healthy. My goal is to lower my
body fat to 20% (currently 24%). I started with the keto diet over
a year ago, and initially was able to lose weight. But I find it
quite difficult to adhere to, and the sugar/carb restrictions
triggered many binge eating episodes that I never experienced
before keto. Now I’ve relaxed on the carb restrictions by allowing
myself to eat fruits and starchy vegetables and my cravings are
more under control (fingers crossed).
However I still face another hurdle in my fat loss journey , namely
PMS cravings and water retention. I retain so much water during my
luteal phase I can’t even fit into clothes that are normally loose
fitting. Logically I would lower carbs and increase fat to
reduce water retention, but the the problem with that is I also
crave sugar (mainly chocolate) and carbs (pretzels). I also find it
hard to fast during PMS (I normally do 16:8 IF) as I feel more
hungry. I always gain weight during luteal phase, which practically
undo all my previous efforts. Do you have any suggestions on what
to do during luteal phase? Do we eat more carbs or more fat? Any
supplements? Any advice will be greatly appreciated!
