“If you have used a consumer genetic testing service like 23andMe or AncestryDNA and want to learn more about whether or not the data indicates your specific genotype on these SNPs, check out our free viral report here.”

“Creatine works by building tissue stores, so consistent daily intake matters more than taking it immediately before a specific workout. Dr. Patrick and Dr. Candow also discuss its value during aging, when preserving training quality and muscle becomes increasingly important for function and independence.”

“However, vegans and vegetarians frequently have higher levels of other micronutrients, such as vitamins C and E. Getting the required micronutrients is essential for maintaining optimal health when following a vegan diet.”

“In this clip from Dr. Rhonda Patrick's appearance on Modern Wisdom, she explains how a large post-meal glucose rise and fall can contribute to the sluggish feeling people call brain fog. Food order offers one practical lever.”

“In a crossover experiment with 12 healthy adults, six 40-second high-intensity cycling intervals increased circulating BDNF four to five times more than 90 minutes of light cycling. The BDNF response also tracked with the rise in circulating lactate.”

“Patients assigned to supervised exercise during neoadjuvant chemoradiation, followed by continued activity before surgery, were more likely to achieve a complete or near-complete pathological response than those receiving usual care.”

“Dr. Patrick describes increased shear as a possible way vigorous exercise can damage fragile circulating tumor cells; this is a proposed mechanism, not proof that a workout eliminates metastasis or treats an established tumor.”

“Genetics plays an important role in longevity, but there is also a strong lifestyle component. Dr. Snyder's research, using deep molecular measurements, indicates that when you exercise, a profound molecular change occurs — particularly when it comes to immune molecules.”
