1. How much protein can one absorb per meal? [20:09]
Leslie says:
I am a 70-year-old female.  Paleo and low carb for many years. Avid podcast listener and book buyer - love all of yours!  Don't want any more sarcopenia than I already have.  Followed your advice and went on the Ketogains macro calculator that recommends about 100 gm protein per day.  But I'm also working on lowering insulin by only eating 2 meals per day.  Searching tells me that bodybuilders think they can only absorb 30 gm per meal.    I eat berries, collagen, protein powder (grassfed!), goat kefir and powdered multi vitamins mixed together along with 4 oz meat and 2 eggs for breakfast around 11 am.  For dinner I eat 4 oz meat with some Amy's organic soup and sometimes a salad.  I am not aiming for ketosis, just low carb. I could stand to lose a few pounds, but at 5'4" and 135 at my age I am OK but would like more muscle or at least not lose any more.  Should I add a third meal for some of the protein or perhaps redistribute the protein amounts?  Thanks!
I do this workout about once a week, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dBbPsJKq9uM     1 hour of Zumba about 3-times per week and miscellaneous other exercises.  Before Covid I did more, including some blood-flow restriction  which seems to work on the same principle as the video I linked.  I feel like it takes about a week for me to recover enough to want to do the video workout again.  I don't do the lifting-the-bag part of the workout - my back isn't perfect.  I also recently added Esther Gokhale's daily workout (1,2,3 move) and should add the associated weight workout as well.  I liked Doug McGuff's concepts and have listened to the IHMC podcasts as well as Peter Attia's stuff.  Like I said, I am an avid podcast listener!!
2. Thru hiking, backpacking, and paleo/ketogenic diet [25:08]
Matt says:
I have been following a paleo diet for 5-6 years now, and transitioned to a ketogenic approach at the beginning of this year.  Since then I've been able to maintain a much lower  body weight than ever before in my adult life and my endurance and fitness levels (and to a lesser degree strength levels) have been better than ever before.  These past couple years I have gotten more into thru hiking and backpacking and have been planning some longer hikes and a long term goal of doing the entire appalachian trail.  My question is; to your knowledge is there anyone developing programs or templates on planning long hikes primarily utilizing ketogenic and paleo foods?  Everywhere you look when planning thru hikes the advice is largely the same (granola, oatmeal, instant mashed potatoes, and candy for 'energy'), but it seems obvious that 6 months on a trail requires primarily oxidative phosphorylation, and KD or paleo seems to be an obvious choice.  Information on the topic seems pretty slim, especially when it comes to planning and packing for at least a weeks worth of sustenance that would be necessary when out in the wilderness.  With as many ultra runners and endurance athletes beginning to tout the benefits of KD, I am wondering if there are any thru hikers doing the same thing? I don't know if you have addressed this in podcasts or blog posts in the past and I just missed it.  Seems like it could be an interesting topic, and maybe another area where some thought leaders can emerge.
