“Compared with one sauna session per week, four to seven weekly sessions were associated with 66% lower dementia hazard and 65% lower Alzheimer's disease hazard, showing a strong dose-related pattern in this population. A second Finnish cohort followed 13,994 men and women.”

“This is a video on how to plausibly increase the sulforaphane created from the glucoraphanin in your broccoli sprouts by up to 3.5-fold, based on the results of a 2004 Phytochemistry paper entitled "Heating decreases epithiospecifier protein activity and increases sulforaphane formation in broccoli."”

“In this clip, Dr. Rhonda Patrick distinguishes several sleep exposures. Mild restriction means losing roughly one to three hours for several nights; severe laboratory restriction can mean four hours in bed; chronic cohort studies compare habitual short and long sleep.”

“When most people think about certain lifestyle factors that affect insulin sensitivity and blood glucose levels, they think about macronutrient composition, or calories, or fasting, or exercise (and lack of), but they don’t often think about sleep.”

“There is so much to say when we talk about the NRF2 pathway and isothiocyanates like sulforaphane that we had to pack it into 47 minutes and break it into a few key sections. Key sections: For a more in-depth breakdown click the timeline link at the top of this page!”

“Clinical data suggest that taking supplemental ketones during fasting increases blood levels of ketones but decreases levels of free fatty acids, indicating that the body is no longer relying on stored fatty acids.”

“A systematic review and meta-analysis found no evidence that one time of day produces universally better improvements in health or performance, although gains can be larger when the time of training matches the time of testing.”
