Reducing Cardiovascular Risk
Charles writes:
Hi Robb and Nikki, I’ve been following some of the literature on COVID-19 vaccination and myocarditis, which is concerning. I’ve also noted the uptick in pop science articles on sudden population-wide upticks in stroke risk, among other things. I’m particularly concerned about this issue because I’m 30 and Male, both of which seem to greatly increase one’s risk of vax-induced cardiovascular issues; and I got scared into getting the Pfizer vaccine in 2021. Following this, more than a couple of men I know died suddenly and prematurely of cardiovascular issues, but I didn’t seem to have any such problems.
I’ve been following your recommendations for 12 years (made me a bit unusual as a freshman in college), and I’m at my peak health and performance. Objectively speaking, my bloodwork ~6 months and 1.5 years post vaccine was excellent (lipids, hA1c, free testosterone, etc.). I wouldn’t be too worried about this but I sat down to do some bench press last week and got a sudden, intense migraine that felt vascular in nature. It got me thinking about all of these “exercise induced stroke” related headlines.
So the question is, would you be worried if you were me? Would you adopt any new practices, or tweak any part of the ancestral lifestyle? I imagine some people have taken to popping baby aspirin in their 30s for this, but short of that, I don’t know what else I could do.
 
More Protein with Age?

Nicki and Robb,
First of all, thank you for all that you've done through your books, podcasts, and talks over the past several years. I know I don’t only speak for myself when I say that you’ve truly changed my life for the better, not only when it comes to nutrition and training, but also in terms of navigating this (increasingly) nonsensical world we’re living in.
I'm a moderately active, lean (probably around 150 lbs.), 6'0", 38-year-old man. My physical activity generally comprises several walks every day, totaling around 8-12K steps per day, and I lift three times per week (full-body Starting Strength-esque barbell program called Greyskull LP).
My sleep isn't the BEST, averaging 7 hrs. in bed (asleep for all but maybe 10-15 minutes of that time), but I wake up feeling good in the morning. Stress management is on point, although the 10-15 mg of nicotine I get per day (via tobacco-free pouches) may work against that some days, depending on the rest of my stress load.
I generally eat moderate-to-high carb (200-300 grams per day). and my total caloric intake is generally around 2500-3000 kcal/day. My protein intake is currently around 250 grams per day. TBH, I just love protein. I find protein shakes to be convenient for breakfast, and I love eating meat, fish, etc. with other meals (generally around two pounds per day on top of the two-large-scoop protein shake). I also tend to feel better when I eat a ton of protein. My fat intake is, as you can tell, pretty low.
All this seems to be working for me pretty well for me in terms of progress in the gym, sleep, energy, and all else. However, I’m a bit curious about my protein intake.
At 250 grams per day, I'm well above what's recommended. I'm not concerned about this being detrimental or damaging in any way. However, I'm a bit concerned that as I age and my protein requirements go up, I’ll need to eat even MORE than this to compensate.
Will I need to eat even more protein as I get older, or is my current intake so high that my rising requirements will s
