“In this clip from Dr. Rhonda Patrick's presentation at the Vibrant Wellness Longevity Summit, she explains how the Omega-3 Index measures EPA and DHA in red-blood-cell membranes as a longer-term marker of omega-3 status.”

“Lutein and zeaxanthin also have evidence in age-related eye disease, although the AREDS2 trial did not find an additional reduction in progression to advanced macular degeneration in its primary comparison. Magnesium and creatine address different needs.”

“A meta-analysis of 49 resistance-training studies found small additional gains from protein supplementation, with fat-free-mass gains leveling near 1.6 grams per kilogram per day in the studied populations.”
“Sodium keeps our hearts beating, our muscles moving, and our nerves firing—but it's also one of the most debated nutrients in health. While sodium is essential for survival, too much or too little can tip the scales toward problems like high blood pressure or fatigue.”
“In this Aliquot, I break down what the research tells us about glyphosate exposure in farming communities versus the general population, explore how it may lead to DNA damage, and share practical strategies for reducing exposure—starting with your grocery list.”
“In this Aliquot, I'm joined by exercise-oncology researcher Dr. Kerry Courneya to identify and prioritize the lifestyle behaviors that account for much of the difference in cancer risk and have the greatest long-term impact.”
“Since then, the body of research enumerating the profound anti-inflammatory and generalized health-promoting qualities of omega-3s continues to grow; however, some studies fail to show any effects from omega-3 supplementation.”
“Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an autoimmune neurodegenerative disorder that destroys myelin, the insulating layer that surrounds neurons. The causes of MS are complex and may arise from both genetic and environmental factors, including nutritional deficiencies.”
“Roughly one-quarter of people living in the US carry a genetic variant of the apolipoprotein E gene, called APOE4, the most important genetic risk factor for Alzheimer's disease. Many lifestyle behaviors can mitigate risk, especially sleep hygiene, which provides an opportunity to rid the brain of toxic metabolic byproducts that can contribute to Alzheimer's disease risk.”
“Individual responses to diet can be influenced by a person's genetic makeup, however. Knowing a person's genetic factors influencing their response to diet may be beneficial component of a multi-part strategy developed in coordination with professional care for keeping ApoB in check.”
