“The fact that poor sleep is linked with the aggregation of amyloid-beta plaques in the brain and Alzheimer's disease is not surprising. Although some strategies for improving the quality of sleep among people with Alzheimer's have been identified, this might be too late to turn the tide of cognitive decline.”

“In this clip, Dr. Michael Snyder discusses how people age in distinct ways and at varying rates and how knowing our "ageotype" might offer targets for preventing age-related diseases.”

“In this clip, Drs. Levine and Patrick discuss definitions of aging used in science and why biological aging matters to scientists. Dr. Levine shares the hallmarks of aging that help researchers determine someone's biological age, what drives accelerated aging, and what epigenetic modifications such as CpG methylation say about the aging process.”

“The stability of DNA methylation patterns - in terms of sample reliability - makes the use of epigenetic clock data an attractive tool in the hands of researchers investigating aging around the world.”

“Removing former drinkers from the non-drinker category reveals a different story: One study observed that the lowest risk for cardiovascular disease (i.e., ischemic heart disease) was right below one standard U.S. drink per week — men and women at this level of consumption had an ~18% lower risk compared to nondrinkers.”

“Dr. Rhonda Patrick spent many months researching and learning about the myriad factors that would influence her child's development, and she has continued to do so as her son has grown – and as new research has become available.”

“Rebuilding muscle relies on proper nutrition and exercise, but aging reduces the body's response to both. Extended periods of inactivity, such as post-surgery or during illness, can rapidly deplete muscle mass, especially in older people, potentially pushing them into a "catabolic crisis."”

“Scientists are exploring a wide range of cutting-edge therapies aimed at understanding and manipulating the complex processes underlying these hallmarks, including epigenetic aging clocks and pluripotent stem cells.”

“In part I of this two-part series on the future of aging research, we discussed the hallmarks of aging and the cutting-edge therapies aimed at understanding and manipulating the complex processes underlying these hallmarks, including epigenetic aging clocks and pluripotent stem cells.”

“In this Aliquot, Drs. Axel Montagne, Matthew Walker, Mark Mattson, Valter Longo, Peter Attia, and I discuss the risks associated with high blood pressure and describe some of the many ways lifestyle can help achieve and maintain healthy blood pressure.”
