“00:34:40 - Repeated traumatic brain injury has cumulative neuroinflammatory effects in the brain over years, including amyloid-beta plaque and tau tangle formation. Study. 00:44:00 - A variant of the APOE gene increases risk of developing Alzheimer’s disease as much as 15-fold.”

“Some of the factors contributing to these variable phenotypes include persistent damage to our DNA and mitochondrial dysfunction, driven by an altered NAD:NADH ratio, the latter of which has recently been shown to be improved by certain dietary supplements like nicotinamide riboside.”

“For a product-selection companion to these exposure-reduction strategies, read Dr. Patrick's analysis of how reliably “clean” labels describe finished personal-care and cleaning products. A nontargeted laboratory study found far more compounds than labels disclosed, but it did not measure absorbed dose or show that the tested products caused disease.”

“A later Framingham analysis followed 2,240 adults for 11 years and found that a red-cell fatty acid model including the Omega-3 Index predicted all-cause mortality about as well as a model using several standard cardiovascular risk factors.”

“Alterations in magnesium and oxidative status during chronic emotional stress - Young adults undergoing persistent or intermittent stress like anticipating military conflict) experienced substantial decreases in their overall and plasma magnesium concentrations over three months.”

“If your magnesium levels are inadequate, then your ability to boost mitochondrial number during HIT will be dampened, thus, compromising performance and the mitochondrial mass you would have otherwise gained as a consequence of your hard work and effort.”

“The mast cells release pro­inflammatory cytokines and proteases that damage the gut, leading to intestinal permeability, a condition otherwise known as “leaky gut.” This leakiness allows bacteria and bacterial antigens to cross the gut’s inner layer, the epithelium, and activate even more immune cells, leading to more inflammation – a key driver in the aging process.”

“Another randomized study found better long-term picture-location memory when exercise occurred four hours after learning, showing that timing can shape the result. Dr. Patrick also discusses serotonin and hippocampal neurogenesis as a possible biological link.”

“While Dr. Rhonda Patrick’s first video focused primarily on the micronutrients found in the various fruits and vegetables she put in her smoothie, this one, in addition to offering some modest changes on the recipe, instead focuses on the beneficial “hormetic” compounds that are NOT micronutrients.”

“The question of whether NAD+ is derived directly from NR or NMN in certain tissues rather than being salvaged from nicotinamide may, in particular, have implications for whether or not oral administration may be hampered in achieving maximal NAD+ status due to the fact that the process of salvaging NAD+ from nicotinamide is subject to feedback inhibition.”
