Dr. Kelly Starrett joins Dr. Rhonda Patrick to discuss building a durable body, reclaiming lost mobility, and raising more resilient young athletes.

“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 recent study identified the branched-chain amino acid leucine as the primary amino acid sensor for mTOR. Interestingly, branched-chain amino acids have been favored by bodybuilders because of their ability to enhance muscle growth.”

“Bottled water can contain very small plastic particles. Using stimulated Raman scattering microscopy, researchers identified roughly 240,000 detectable plastic particles per liter on average across three popular bottled-water brands, most of them nanoplastics.”

“Dr. Patrick recommends bounded quality checks such as GMP manufacturing and independent testing; she notes that some tested products were below their stated heavy-metal limits, not that lion’s mane products are uniformly contaminated.”

“A higher omega-3-index quintile was associated with lower all-cause mortality risk, but the estimated years of life were model-derived comparisons between quintiles, not observed gains from raising an index from 4% to 8%.”

“Because red blood cells turn over slowly, the test provides a longer-term view of marine omega-3 status than a recent meal and gives people a measurable way to evaluate diet or supplementation.”

“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.”

“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.”
