Hey y’all! I’m prepping for the upcoming Crossfit Nutrition cert this saturday. Then from Tues to the following monday I’ll be at a seminar…I’ll do my best to answer blog posts and email but I’m frankly getting crushed by the volume of questions. I started answering stuff at 6am this morning and did the last… Continue Reading
Paleo vs. Type 1 Diabetes
I received the following email today, pretty cool stuff: Robb, I emailed you about a month or so ago. I just want to give you an update on my situation: I’ve lost about 15-20lbs.

Exercise: Effective for Fat Gain
I received the following question which is pretty interesting. Check it out: Rob, I would like to start with saying thank you for all of your time and commitment to the crossfit community.

Carpal Tunnel, Cancer, Rheumatoid Arthritis and Hyperinsulinsm

I have one question to ask: In one the videos, Cordain says you need inflammation to have cancer. What is meant by this? I know carbs have a… Continue Reading
Feeding The Machine 3: Run You Down!

Brian is not a skinny, weak… Continue Reading

Celiac and Elevated Liver Enzymes
I’ve had a slew of questions regarding elevated Liver enzymes, the Zone, Paleo, CrossFit etc. We have two clients, both pharmacists, who had stunningly high liver enzymes, particularly ALK (alkaline phosphatase). Frequently AST and ALT are also elevated, occasionally even bilirubin. Both clients have seen a dramatic reduction in liver enzyme levels with the adoption… Continue Reading
Miltons Paleo Rebuttal
I had a great question that involves Katherine Miltons rebuttal to much of Cordain’s work. Here is the question and my response: Robb, I’d love to talk to you about elite level athletes diets (olympian diets), and their high reliance on carbs and not so healthy food, sometime.. but too long to do here.… Continue Reading
