“Nitrites, used as preservatives in processed meats, can form cancer-causing nitrosamines when cooked or during digestion in the human colon. Nitrates, similar compounds found in plants, can also form nitrosamines but tend to form nitric oxide instead, due to the presence of vitamin C in the plants.”

Jim Kean is the CEO of National Pro Grid League (NPGL) and founder of WellnessFX.

“Study. 01:43:00 - High animal protein intake was only positively associated with cardiovascular mortality among individuals with at least one unhealthy lifestyle risk factor, such as obesity or sedentary lifestyle. Study.”

“00:34:40 - Repeated traumatic brain injury has cumulative neuroinflammatory effects in the brain over years, including amyloid-beta plaque and tau tangle formation. Study. 00:44:00 - A variant of the APOE gene increases risk of developing Alzheimer’s disease as much as 15-fold.”

“Dr. Patrick also discusses glucose, HbA1c, fasting insulin, kidney and electrolyte markers, hs-CRP, fibrinogen, thyroid tests, CBC, vitamin D, sex hormones, IGF-1, and the Omega-3 Index.”

“Bottled water can contain very small plastic particles. Using stimulated Raman scattering microscopy, researchers identified roughly 240,000 detectable plastic particles per liter on average across three popular bottled-water brands, most of them nanoplastics.”

“A higher omega-3-index quintile was associated with lower all-cause mortality risk, but the estimated years of life were model-derived comparisons between quintiles, not observed gains from raising an index from 4% to 8%.”

“A later Framingham analysis followed 2,240 adults for 11 years and found that a red-cell fatty acid model including the Omega-3 Index predicted all-cause mortality about as well as a model using several standard cardiovascular risk factors.”

“Some people with primary sleeping disorders use melatonin to help them fall asleep. While some research indicates that melatonin helps with sleep latency — or the ability to fall asleep — it may not support a person's ability to stay asleep.”

“Assessing and quantifying the exposome — all of the non-genetic tangible exposures we experience during a lifetime, including those from the air, physical surroundings, microbes, and chemicals — is challenging.”
