“Resveratrol is a "dirty molecule," however, known for its multiple cellular targets, so teasing out all the ramifications of its use has proven problematic. Furthermore, it is relatively unstable and demonstrates poor bioavailability in humans.”

“Compared with one sauna session per week, four to seven weekly sessions were associated with 66% lower dementia hazard and 65% lower Alzheimer's disease hazard, showing a strong dose-related pattern in this population. A second Finnish cohort followed 13,994 men and women.”

“This is a video on how to plausibly increase the sulforaphane created from the glucoraphanin in your broccoli sprouts by up to 3.5-fold, based on the results of a 2004 Phytochemistry paper entitled "Heating decreases epithiospecifier protein activity and increases sulforaphane formation in broccoli."”

“Prolonged endurance exercise, heavy sweating, sauna use, and a minimally processed diet can also increase the practical need to replace electrolytes, which is different from routinely adding large doses for a sedentary person eating processed foods.”

“Based on findings from more recent studies using stable isotopes, which more accurately assess muscle protein anabolism and catabolism, Dr. Phillips believes that eating 1.2 to 1.6 grams of protein per kilogram of bodyweight (about 0.5 to 0.7 grams per pound) is likely optimal for muscle protein synthesis, especially as one ages.”

“Human trials suggest that alpha-lipoic acid can modestly improve selected lipid measures. A dose-response meta-analysis of 12 studies found reductions in total cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, and triglycerides across doses from 300 to 1,200 milligrams per day.”

“Clinical data suggest that taking supplemental ketones during fasting increases blood levels of ketones but decreases levels of free fatty acids, indicating that the body is no longer relying on stored fatty acids.”

“In this video, Dr. Rhonda Patrick interviews Dr. Terry Wahls about how she reversed her secondary-progressive multiple sclerosis with a micronutrient-dense diet and Paleo principles.”
