“01:52:55 - Environmental enrichment creates epigenetic changes that benefit learning and memory in rodents and these benefits transfer to offspring. Study. 02:05:00 - NASA study showed that gravity influenced expression of genes involved in metastasis.”

“02:03:18 - A recent study measured omega-3 fatty acid levels from both supplemental and dietary sources in blood and found that for every 1 percent increment in omega-3 fatty acid levels there was a 20 percent decreased risk in all-cause mortality.”

“00:34:40 - Repeated traumatic brain injury has cumulative neuroinflammatory effects in the brain over years, including amyloid-beta plaque and tau tangle formation. Study. 00:44:00 - A variant of the APOE gene increases risk of developing Alzheimer’s disease as much as 15-fold.”

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.”

“The clip also raises questions about micronutrient status. A systematic review found a slight association between vitamin D status and total testosterone, with substantial heterogeneity, and concluded that both may reflect overall health status.”

“For a product-selection companion to these exposure-reduction strategies, read Dr. Patrick's analysis of how reliably “clean” labels describe finished personal-care and cleaning products. A nontargeted laboratory study found far more compounds than labels disclosed, but it did not measure absorbed dose or show that the tested products caused disease.”

“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 preliminary study shows atrophy in olfactory brain regions and areas responsible for learning and memory, after COVID-19 illness, even in those with mild cases. Converging evidence suggests that the long-term impacts of SARS-CoV-2 infection are unknown.”
