protein powder

I listed to Peter and Rhonda where he talks about getting twice his body weight in protein. This is almost impossible...I know he mentioned a "snack meal" of venison sticks and protein shakes. Are the sticks from Maui Nui? And, what whey protein does he recommend? Thank you:)

Caffeine and Longevity

Interested in a deep dive on the topic of caffeine and longevity. How does caffeine affect long-term neurodegeneration and cognitive performance? Are the cognitive benefits mainly from long-term or short-term use? If there are benefits for cognition and reducing dementia, are they worth the potential negative effects on sleep, blood pressure, cortisol, and blood flow to the brain? What exactly are the risks/negative effects from long-term caffeine use? How do the pros and cons stack up – do we have long-term data on whether caffeine is a net positive or net negative? What is the quality of our data? Is there a non-zero amount of caffeine consumption that is healthy (unlike alcohol as Peter has stated)? And if caffeine does happen to be beneficial overall, what's the optimum strategy/dosage for use?
