LPIR vs Craft Test [11:39] Mike says: Robb and Nicki,Can you discuss the relationship between the craft test and the LP-IR test? Are they equivalent, ie does having a low LP-IR score mean you will be category one on the craft test or do they measure different things? If they are different what are the differences. Thanks, Mike https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5644504/ 2. Chemo recovery [16:44] Derik says: Good afternoon Brief:  My 69 year old mother has just finished her 6 month chemo 'medication' for Follicular Lymphoma. She is due her scan to assess progress, but by all other accounts seem to be responding very well.  I'm planning to put her on a mostly red meat diet to help her recover. I'm not an expert by any stretch, but have been learning a bit about paleo / carnivore way of eating and have been 90% carnivore myself for 6 month with lovely results. Weight -25kg and great bloods etc. In any case, my questions is - besides eating beef, lamb (steak + mince + liver aiming for 1.6g/lean kg mass), eggs, fish, pork, chicken, butter, cheese (weekly) and some fruit, nuts (avoid peanuts, almonds, cashew) and veg sprinkled in there - is there anything else like certain supplements that you would recommend she perhaps take generally for a while to help build up what the treatment may have destroyed.  One article explained that some B vitamins especially can be depleted after chemo. Or should the above diet be fine in replenishing her body over months? ps. I'm also keen on getting her to gently do some exercise. Any guidance or points would be very welcome. Love your work Derik 3. Can Low Carb Work for Hard Gainers? [22:16] Ben says: Hey Robb and Nicki! Long time listener, first time caller. Love the renewed mission and content - it is critical! Here's my question: Have you seen a low carb template work for people that have a hard time putting on muscle? For context, I'm 6'0", 155#, 11% BF, and 30 years old (though this problem isn't new). I split my training between CrossFit and lifting heavy compound/functional movements. I've always been a "sugar/carb burner" and since my training has been biased towards strength and CrossFit, I have always eaten high carb (i.e. 350g a day) still in the paleo/whole foods world, but still have a lot of difficulty adding muscle even at a caloric surplus. I continuously experiment with my calories and macros but have never tried low carb as I thought it would be too hard to get enough calories and it didn't make sense to me with my training. Am I missing out on gains not trying low carb? My standard labs are all in good shape - are there other tests I should be doing to see where I'm lacking (i.e. Nutritional DNA tests)? (There are obviously important factors outside of nutrition - I'm constantly trying to optimize my sleep and recovery so let's focus on nutrition for the sake of this question.)   4.
