“Although the findings of a large meta-analysis published in the journal Annals of Internal Medicine indicated that there was no evidence to support the notion that consumption of saturated fat increased the risk of heart disease, the studies on which their conclusions were based were primarily observational.”

“In this video, Dr. Rhonda Patrick summarizes a recent study that found that frequency of sauna use was associated with increased decreased risk of death. Using the sauna 2-3 times per week was associated with 24% lower all-cause mortality and 4-7 times per week decreased all-cause mortality by 40%.”

“A staggering 60% of all calories Americans consume come from ultra-processed foods that fail to induce proper satiety, remain cheaper than whole foods, and hijack our dopamine reward pathways, pushing us to overeat, incentivizing unhealthy food choices, and reinforcing addictive eating behaviors.”

“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."”

“Exercise promotes the release of insulin-like growth factor-1 and its downstream targets, growth hormone and brain-derived neurotrophic factor, to drive muscle and neuron growth. Sauna use increases these factors, too, and when used post-exercise, may have a synergistic effect to improve cardiovascular, musculoskeletal, and neurological health.”

“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!”

“Randomized-trial meta-analysis suggests that properly formulated zinc acetate or zinc gluconate lozenges providing more than 75 milligrams of elemental zinc per day can shorten common-cold duration when started early.”

“In this video, Dr. Rhonda Patrick interviews Dr. Terry Wahls about how she reversed her secondary-progressive multiple sclerosis with a micronutrient-dense diet and Paleo principles.”

“Since then, countless studies have tested Pauling's theories about vitamin C, colds, and cancer (and many others), and a substantial body of evidence has emerged, identifying critical roles for vitamin C in immune function, cardiovascular and respiratory health, cognitive development and preservation, and many other aspects of human health.”
