“In this clip, Dr. Dominic D'Agostino explains the interrelationship between ketones and lactate as sources of energy for the brain and the role ketones may have in reducing oxidative stress through greater energetic efficiency.”

“In a separate analysis of seven intervention trials involving people with type 2 diabetes, HbA1c fell by about 0.71 percentage points, total cholesterol by 23 mg/dL, and LDL cholesterol by 22 mg/dL.”

“He observed that in most cases, metabolic rates were a reflection of body mass and closely tracked estimations from predictive equations. In this clip, Dr. Ray Cronise emphasizes the importance of diet to improve healthspan rather than employing tricks to boost metabolic rate.”

“Acutely, however, caffeine can raise glucose or reduce insulin sensitivity in some people through sympathetic activation, so a short-term glucose response is not identical to the longer-term association. Timing provides the practical answer.”

“However, the term "fasting" can comprise a variety of subtypes. Intermittent fasting, a term lacking specificity, usually refers to interventions such as alternate-day fasting, fasting one day per week, or a five:two eating pattern (fasting for two days per week).”

“A critical element in healthiness is the timing and content of our meals. Time-restricted eating, a form of daily fasting wherein the time of the day during which a person eats is limited, capitalizes on the body's natural circadian metabolic rhythms to promote health.”

“Dr. Rhonda Patrick – who wears a continuous glucose monitor – has found that her post-smoothie blood glucose levels are markedly lower when her smoothie contains moringa powder. In this clip, Dr. Rhonda Patrick shares anecdotal evidence that moringa reduces blood glucose levels.”

“Altering those cues from those normal day-night patterns can have negative effects on our metabolism, especially in organs like the liver. In this clip, Dr. Satchin Panda describes CLOCK's varied response to light and food and how those responses affect metabolism.”

“Her practical message is to reduce the frequency and size of large glucose exposures. Foods with intact fiber, protein, and minimally processed carbohydrates digest more slowly than refined added sugar, while regular exercise gives skeletal muscle a large destination for circulating glucose.”

“For example, growing up in an overly hygienic environment increases a child's risk for developing autoimmune diseases, but exposure to dirt, especially from soil, pets, and roaches, in the first year of life may provide protection against asthma and allergy-related skin disease.”
