“Recent human studies indicate that the fewer carbohydrates one eats, the lower the risk of death from all causes. In this clip, Dr. Eric Verdin explains the importance of the insulin signaling pathway in aging and highlights both animal and human research in this area.”

“These transient stressors induce the expression of genes that process inflammatory molecules. In this clip, Tim Ferriss and Dr. Rhonda Patrick discuss acute versus chronic inflammation and how supplemental antioxidants can negate some of the benefits of exercise.”

“Dr. Michael Snyder, a recent podcast guest, maintains that closely tracking blood sugar levels with continuous glucose monitors (CGMs), for example, can alert people when their levels reach prediabetic or diabetic ranges.”

“In Dr. Raison’s randomized, double-blind study published in JAMA in 2016, it was shown that a single session of whole-body hyperthermia (core body temperature was elevated to 38.5 C) produced a significant antidepressant effect in people with major depressive disorder compared to those who received a sham control.”

“Known for his work in the field of muscle physiology and aging, Dr. McGlory's research focuses on elucidating the molecular mechanisms underlying muscle protein synthesis and degradation, with a particular emphasis on the roles that omega-3 fatty acids play in maintaining muscle health in older adults.”

“Chronic inflammation as a contributor to aging is not an especially new idea. Here, too, epigenetic clock evidence does seem to see this relationship. There is also evidence that HIV accelerates epigenetic aging.”

“Drinking two to three cups per day is linked to roughly a 60% reduced risk of developing diabetes, a statistic that highlights coffee's robust metabolic benefits that arise from its ability to activate AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK), a critical regulator of cellular energy metabolism.”

“Perhaps the most clear-cut examples of cryotherapy’s beneficial effects are observed in the brain, where levels of the hormone and neurotransmitter norepinephrine – responsible for vigilance, attention, focus, and positive mood – increase markedly when the body is exposed to extreme cold.”

“In this short video, Rhonda talks about the new study and suggests that if you prefer your cruciferous veggies steamed, sautéed, or roasted, this strategy might offer a way to have your cooked vegetables and get your sulforaphane, too.”
