“Exercise is a huge driver of how well we age because it induces profound molecular shifts that support immune health and might even protect our telomeres – indicators of aging. Exercise might help forestall certain age-related diseases, such as Parkinson's disease, too.”
“Dietary fiber is a broad term that refers to the non-digestible components of fruits and vegetables. Gut microbes break down certain types of fiber, releasing micronutrients trapped in the fiber matrix and producing beneficial metabolic byproducts, such as short-chain fatty acids.”

“Preventing dementia requires a lifelong and multipronged approach that involves keeping inflammation (and its aging effects) at bay and making healthy lifestyle choices, such as exercising and consuming omega-3 fatty acids.”
“Genetic predisposition, altered glucose uptake in the brain, high blood pressure, and other factors can weaken the barrier's integrity, allowing endotoxins and inflammatory immune cells to infiltrate the brain and increasing a person's risk for dementia.”
“Berberine is a plant-derived compound that may be beneficial for treating a wide range of chronic health conditions associated with obesity, such as hypertension, dyslipidemia, and type 2 diabetes, among others.”
“Sulforaphane, a bioactive compound derived from broccoli, broccoli sprouts, and red kale, exerts potent antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties that can combat various chronic and acute diseases.”
