Finding treatment near me

I’d like to find a doctor near me in Austin, TX to test my ApoB and preventatively treat my risk factors for atherosclerosis… how do I find this?

Anabolic Protein Response: 100 grams vs 50-60?

Hello, there's an open access article in Cell Reports Medicine by Trommelen et al. (https://www.cell.com/cell-reports-medicine/fulltext/S2666-3791(23)00540-2?_returnURL=https%3A%2F%2Flinkinghub.elsevier.com%2Fretrieve%2Fpii%2FS2666379123005402%3Fshowall%3Dtrue) that seems to somewhat contradict the information provided during the Don Layman episode on protein consumption. This study, via in vivo human methods, would suggest consuming more than 50-60 grams in a sitting is actually creating more of an anabolic opportunity. This would potentially make it "easier" to get protein requirements for muscle synthesis fit into a day via large consumption in 1-2 sitting for example. Your thoughts?

HRT beginning at age 65?

Several years ago no doctor would prescribe HRT for me because they believed it would absolutely cause breast cancer. Now I’m 65, and a decade past menopause. Is it too late to start HRT to ward off age related issues?

Acarbose?

Any thoughts on Acarbose to help lower A1C levels and also any longevity benefits? If so is there a recommended dose, i understand ideal longevity benefits are 100mg before each meal? I understand it doesn’t impact mitochondrial function like Metformin does?

Alcohol Alternatives

What is your opinion of the alcohol alternative tonics like Feel Free? I've tried them and they give you a great feeling and completely crush any desire for a drink, but I'm not sure if they are any better for you. Thank you!
