The video serves as a companion to our 15-page Sprouting Guide (https://www.foundmyfitness.com/sprouting) + Q&A with Dr. Jed Fahey (https://www.foundmyfitness.com/episodes/jed-fahey-q-a) – an illustrated manual to the basics of sprouting that includes a brief summary of the science of sulforaphane plus insights from one of the top researchers in the field of chemoprotection.

“Large treadmill cohorts associate higher measured fitness with lower mortality, while a 46-year study of middle-aged men linked the highest fitness category with about 4.9 additional estimated life-years compared with the lowest category.”

“In this clip from Dr. Rhonda Patrick's appearance on The Tim Ferriss Show, she describes VO2 max as a practical measure of cardiorespiratory fitness and explains why vigorous intervals can create a stronger cardiovascular training stimulus.”

“A separate 46-year study of 5,107 middle-aged men linked each 1 milliliter per kilogram per minute increase in estimated VO2 max with about 45 additional days of life expectancy. High-intensity intervals are one practical way to improve VO2 max.”

“Nearly half of all adults in the United States have high blood pressure, defined as having a systolic pressure of 130 mmHg or higher or a diastolic pressure of 80 mmHg or higher. Maintaining early healthy blood pressure is critical to ensuring the proper functioning of blood vessels in the brain and blood-brain barrier integrity.”

“Dr. Patrick describes strategies you can apply immediately to enhance cellular health, protect the nervous system, elevate mood, reduce inflammation, promote muscle and bone function, and help prevent chronic disease.”

“Insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) plays a role during childhood for growth and continues later in life to have anabolic and neurotrophic effects. IGF-1 is also implicated in contributing to aging and enhancing the growth of cancer after it has been initiated.”

“Although exercising animals are less likely to have cardiovascular disease or diabetes, they still experience cancer and kidney disease, it's difficult to extrapolate (or discount) the effects of exercise.”

“Few topics come up in their discussion where Dr. Fahey doesn't have an anecdote about a study he was involved in, or, in some cases, "tribal knowledge" that may not even be published but is nonetheless interesting and an important part of the story that is unique to his particular vantage point.”

“Dr. Huberman delays his first meal until late morning, then uses protein-rich whole foods, fruit, vegetables, and starches according to training and appetite. His core supplements include omega-3s, vitamin D, vitamin K2, and selected products guided by his own response and blood work.”
