In this clip, Dr. Dominic D'Agostino and Dr. Rhonda Patrick discuss the ketogenic diet and its implications for gut health.”

“Lunch varied among sardines, mackerel, wild salmon, avocado, nuts, fruit, cheese, and quinoa salad, giving her flexible sources of protein, marine fats, fiber, and fermented foods. Dinner typically paired fish, chicken, or occasional beef with vegetables or salad.”

“These events are recapitulated in both exercise and sauna, providing a potential explanation for the sleep-inducing effects of the two activities. In this clip, Dr. Matthew Walker explains how sleep and sauna may induce sleep through their short-term pro-inflammatory effects.”

“Patients assigned to supervised exercise during neoadjuvant chemoradiation, followed by continued activity before surgery, were more likely to achieve a complete or near-complete pathological response than those receiving usual care.”
