In this clip, Dr. Griffiths talks about the effect of dose on psilocybin mystical experiences and ‘bad trips’.

“Sure, those dates on the calendar pass at the same rate for everybody, but some people appear to age slower (or faster) than others – with vastly different age-related physical changes and disease risks.”

“In a two-year trial of 237 postmenopausal women, approximately 9 to 10 grams per day combined with resistance training and walking did not add a bone-density benefit, so its role is better framed around muscle and physical function.”

“Patients assigned to supervised exercise during neoadjuvant chemoradiation, followed by continued activity before surgery, were more likely to achieve a complete or near-complete pathological response than those receiving usual care.”

“The physical activity guidelines and estimates on how much activity we need are heavily based on self-reported activity, which is useful but imperfect: people remember going for a run, but they forget the short, intense bursts in daily life like sprinting up stairs, chasing kids, and running to catch a bus.”

“In this excerpt from Dr. Rhonda Patrick's A4M LongevityFest 2023 keynote, she argues that vigorous exercise is one of the most powerful tools for healthy aging because it can raise cardiorespiratory fitness.”

“In 25,241 adults who reported no structured exercise, a median of three one- or two-minute vigorous lifestyle bouts per day was associated with 38% to 40% lower all-cause and cancer mortality and 48% to 49% lower cardiovascular mortality.”

“Controlled human studies support acute brain-related responses to high-intensity exercise. Six short all-out cycling intervals improved selected learning and executive measures while increasing circulating BDNF, IGF-1, and VEGF; lactate tracked several of these changes.”

“Exercise can improve blood pressure, insulin sensitivity, triglycerides, and fitness, but someone with high ApoB or LDL may still need targeted diet changes and clinician-guided lipid-lowering treatment. Mood is another major benefit.”

“Studies of centenarians suggest that lower levels of inflammation are associated with longevity. Different types of fiber provide fuel to diverse species of bacteria in the gut, which then synthesize byproducts that regulate the inflammatory process.”
