“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.”

“There's a lot of exciting research right now into aging and maximum lifespan, but scientists have really just scratched the surface of the fascinating topic of how to live longer, healthier lives. Relevant Publications Rootzén, Holger, and Dmitrii Zholud.”

“More than 200 HMOs have been identified, and they are the third most abundant factor in breast milk after fat and lactose. The primary role of HMOs is to serve as prebiotics – compounds that induce the growth or activity of beneficial bacteria.”

“Dr. Rhonda Patrick discusses how conditioning the body to heat stress through sauna use, called "hyperthermic conditioning" may cause adaptations that increase athletic endurance (by increasing plasma volume and blood flow to heart and muscles) and potentially even muscle mass. She also discusses the profound effects of hyperthermic conditioning on the brain including cognitive function.”

“In this talk, we’ll be exploring the intersection between genetics, nutrition, and environment: how your diet, micronutrients, exercise, heat stress, and sleep can change the expression of your genes and how this has profound effects on the way your body functions and ages.”

“Fasting can deplete the body's stores of electrolytes, especially during prolonged fasts or during periods of exercise when electrolytes can be lost during sweat. Because electrolytes are non-calories, replenishment does not appear to alter circadian rhythms.”

“While it’s likely that there may be more going on with depression than just inflammation by itself, it could be an incredibly useful lens through which to look at promising avenues to potentially treat or prevent it, since controlling systemic inflammation shows promise as being both important for longevity and health in general.”

“While this system might have served an important function evolutionarily, today it contributes to the chronic inflammation associated with heart disease. In this clip, Dr. Ronald Krauss discusses the role of inflammation in lipoprotein metabolism.”
