“02:03:18 - A recent study measured omega-3 fatty acid levels from both supplemental and dietary sources in blood and found that for every 1 percent increment in omega-3 fatty acid levels there was a 20 percent decreased risk in all-cause mortality.”

“When this barrier breaks down, as in, intestinal permeability, also known as "leaky gut," microbes and their metabolites translocate out of the intestinal lumen and influence the health and function of distant tissues, such as the brain, connective tissues, sometimes promoting a state known as "metabolic endotoxemia."”

“Finally, choline is also a precursor for phosphatidylcholine, the major component of all cell membranes, which affects the structure, permeability and function of cells and is particularly important in neurons since it plays a role in general neurotransmission.”

“A growing body of scientific evidence suggests that there is a correlation between decreased activation of the IGF-1 pathway and increased lifespan. Studies in worms and mice indicate that when the IGF-1 receptor is knocked out, the organisms remain disease-free and live longer.”

“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.”

“Bruce argues that while diseases of severe vitamin D deficiency like rickets are rare, the criteria for vitamin D deficiency should be based on long-term health biomarkers and not just short-term severe diseases.”

“If your magnesium levels are inadequate, then your ability to boost mitochondrial number during HIT will be dampened, thus, compromising performance and the mitochondrial mass you would have otherwise gained as a consequence of your hard work and effort.”

“Eating late at night – particularly large meals – can be detrimental and, along with DNA damage, provides fertile ground for cancer to develop. In this clip, Dr. Ruth Patterson discusses how eating in accordance with the body's natural circadian rhythm may reduce the risk of breast cancer.”

“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.”

“While Dr. Rhonda Patrick’s first video focused primarily on the micronutrients found in the various fruits and vegetables she put in her smoothie, this one, in addition to offering some modest changes on the recipe, instead focuses on the beneficial “hormetic” compounds that are NOT micronutrients.”
