“In later randomized trials, urolithin A improved some laboratory measures of muscle endurance or hamstring strength, but it did not significantly improve key primary outcomes such as six-minute walk distance, muscle ATP production, or peak power.”

“Dr. van Loon sees useful research questions in skin, joints, and recovery after orthopedic surgery, but he keeps those possibilities separate from established muscle-building effects.”

“Fasting induces a vast array of processes that not only improve overall body composition but also trigger the activation of biochemical processes and signaling pathways that optimize human performance and physiological function.”

“Until this time, discretion should be exercised by those considering a long-term health regimen. In this clip, Dr. Eric Verdin discusses the idea that increasing protein levels too high while on a ketogenic diet may have adverse health effects.”

“Insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) plays a role during childhood for growth and continues later in life to have anabolic and neurotrophic effects. IGF-1 is also implicated in contributing to aging and enhancing the growth of cancer after it has been initiated.”

“While this system might have served an important function evolutionarily, today it contributes to the chronic inflammation associated with heart disease. In this clip, Dr. Ronald Krauss discusses the role of inflammation in lipoprotein metabolism.”

Many of the anabolic effects of growth hormone are thought to be mediated by insulin-like growth factor-1, or IGF-1 (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/18500379), which is synthesized primarily in the liver but also in skeletal muscle in response to growth hormone.

“During sleep, the brain activates the glymphatic system, a self-cleaning process that rids the brain of metabolic byproducts. One of these byproducts is amyloid-beta, a toxic protein that aggregates and forms plaques in the brain with age and is associated with Alzheimer's disease.”

“I am simply saying you would be even more healthy if you also included fiber...if you also included fruits and vegetables.” - Layne Norton, Ph.D. The Carnivore Diet Eating an all meat or all animal product diet—commonly referred to as the carnivore diet—has been hailed by many as the only diet that’s provided a cure for their autoimmune disease or other health issues.”

“A meta-analysis of resistance-training trials found that protein supplementation produced modest additional gains in strength and fat-free mass, with average fat-free-mass benefit plateauing near 1.62 g/kg/day. This is a group estimate, not a precise requirement for every older adult.”
