“Most common graying is strongly related to age and genetics, but selected observations suggest that stress, nutrient status, and cellular energy metabolism can influence pigment in some circumstances.”

“In a small trial involving adults with obesity, a ketone monoester improved one processing-speed task and selected brain blood-flow measures, providing an early signal for further research. Temperature can also shape alertness and sleep preparation.”

“Diamandis and Robbins are a dynamic duo, having paired up with co-author Dr. Robert Hariri to write Life Force, a best-selling book that describes breakthroughs in precision medicine and health technologies that can help people live longer, healthier, more fulfilling lives – in the very near future.”

“Dr. Satchin Panda and his colleagues at the Salk Institute in La Jolla, California, have created an app, MyCircadianClock, that allows users to track their daily health behaviors, including eating, sleeping, moving, and taking supplements and medications.”

“Small controlled trials of early time-restricted eating, which included breakfast and moved dinner earlier rather than testing breakfast skipping, found improved insulin sensitivity in eight men with prediabetes and lower 24-hour glucose in 11 adults with overweight.”

“In contrast, a five-week trial in 181 people with diabetic polyneuropathy found that oral alpha-lipoic acid improved symptom scores, with more nausea, vomiting, and vertigo at higher doses. PQQ has a much smaller human evidence base.”

“Meal timing can affect selected markers in specific settings. In a five-week crossover study of eight men with prediabetes, an early six-hour window improved insulin sensitivity, beta-cell responsiveness, morning blood pressure, oxidative stress, and appetite without weight loss.”

“Since then, countless studies have tested Pauling's theories about vitamin C, colds, and cancer (and many others), and a substantial body of evidence has emerged, identifying critical roles for vitamin C in immune function, cardiovascular and respiratory health, cognitive development and preservation, and many other aspects of human health.”

“In a controlled five-week crossover trial involving men with prediabetes, an early six-hour eating window with dinner before 3 p.m. improved insulin sensitivity, pancreatic beta-cell responsiveness, blood pressure, oxidative stress, and appetite without causing weight loss.”
