“In a randomized crossover study of 18 men with overweight or obesity, breaking sitting with squatting or short walking bouts lowered post-meal glucose exposure more than one 30-minute walk, even when energy use and total activity time were matched.”

“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.”

“An abundance of scientific data clearly demonstrates that eating a carbohydrate-rich meal prior to endurance exercise training – more than 60 minutes' duration – markedly improves performance in humans.”

“In this member Q&A clip, Dr. Rhonda Patrick shares four practices she uses or finds compelling for healthy aging: sauna, sulforaphane-rich foods or supplements, time-restricted eating, and high-intensity interval training.”

“In this clip from Dr. Rhonda Patrick's conversation with Derek from More Plates More Dates, she explains how progressive endurance training can improve VO2 max and the heart's ability to fill with blood.”

“In a randomized crossover study of 18 young men with overweight or obesity, ten three-minute walking or squat breaks spread across 8.5 hours reduced post-meal glucose exposure more than uninterrupted sitting or one continuous 30-minute walk.”

“In a UK Biobank study of 25,241 adults who reported no leisure-time exercise, about three daily bouts lasting one or two minutes were associated with 38 to 40 percent lower all-cause and cancer mortality and 48 to 49 percent lower cardiovascular mortality compared with no VILPA.”

“In another randomized trial, advice to drink an additional 1.5 liters of water daily improved migraine-specific quality of life, even though headache-day counts did not clearly change. Selected nutrients may help some people as part of a broader prevention plan.”

“The heart becomes smaller and less compliant with sedentary aging, which can limit how effectively it fills during exercise. In this clip from Dr. Rhonda Patrick's appearance on PBD Podcast, she describes a two-year randomized trial in healthy but sedentary adults ages 45 to 64.”

“During about eight years of follow-up, the models associated one vigorous minute with roughly 4.1 moderate minutes for all-cause mortality, 7.8 minutes for cardiovascular mortality, and 9.4 minutes for type 2 diabetes risk.”
