“Meal timing can affect selected markers in specific settings. In a five-week crossover study of eight men with prediabetes, an early six-hour window improved insulin sensitivity, beta-cell responsiveness, morning blood pressure, oxidative stress, and appetite without weight loss.”

“In a controlled five-week crossover trial involving men with prediabetes, an early six-hour eating window with dinner before 3 p.m. improved insulin sensitivity, pancreatic beta-cell responsiveness, blood pressure, oxidative stress, and appetite without causing weight loss.”

In this clip, Dr. Patrick explains how intense exercise beneficially alters tryptophan and kynurenine metabolism in a way that may benefit depression.

“Dr. McGlory sheds light on the relationship between aerobic conditioning and muscle hypertrophy, addressing the notion that aerobic exercise might hinder muscle growth gained through resistance training.”

“Martin Gibala, Bill Harris, and Peter Attia about three proven ways to promote health and longevity: boosting cardiorespiratory fitness, ensuring you're getting plenty of omega-3 fatty acids, and maintaining healthy blood glucose levels.”

“In this Aliquot, Drs. Martin Gibala, Brad Schoenfeld, and Mark Mattson share their thoughts on the importance of resistance training and how its aerobic qualities boost cardiovascular health while optimizing your workout's time efficiency.”

“The benefits of HIIT include improvements in muscle tissue oxidative capacity, enhanced insulin response, improvements in heart function, and increased lactate – an important source of fuel for the heart, brain, and muscles.”

“In this Aliquot, Dr. Brad Schoenfeld describes a balanced approach to maximizing muscle growth and strength and dispels early myths about possible blunting effects of aerobic training, the need to train to failure, and the "go heavy or go home" philosophy.”

“Dr. Attia says checking lactate during every cycling session is his own data-heavy practice, not something most people need to do. For most people, he favors rate of perceived exertion and the talk test, with heart-rate formulas used only as starting points.”

“- Axel Montagne, Ph.D. While we await potential breakthroughs in targeting elements of the neurovascular unit in the blood-brain barrier directly with stem cell therapeutics, gene therapies, and other cutting-edge techniques, there are things we can do now to better support vascular health and thereby help maintain the integrity of the blood-brain barrier.”
