“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.”

“The mast cells release pro­inflammatory cytokines and proteases that damage the gut, leading to intestinal permeability, a condition otherwise known as “leaky gut.” This leakiness allows bacteria and bacterial antigens to cross the gut’s inner layer, the epithelium, and activate even more immune cells, leading to more inflammation – a key driver in the aging process.”

“In this brief episode, we learn how restoring our dietary and sleep pattern to one that more closely syncs with those imposed by nature, especially by avoiding eating within 2-3 hours before bed and onset of melatonin production, may improve our health and potentially prolong our healthspan.”

“Another randomized study found better long-term picture-location memory when exercise occurred four hours after learning, showing that timing can shape the result. Dr. Patrick also discusses serotonin and hippocampal neurogenesis as a possible biological link.”

“Assessing and quantifying the exposome — all of the non-genetic tangible exposures we experience during a lifetime, including those from the air, physical surroundings, microbes, and chemicals — is challenging.”

“While Dr. Rhonda Patrick’s first video focused primarily on the micronutrients found in the various fruits and vegetables she put in her smoothie, this one, in addition to offering some modest changes on the recipe, instead focuses on the beneficial “hormetic” compounds that are NOT micronutrients.”

“A pooled analysis estimated effects of about 0.07 standard deviation for global cognition and 0.06 for episodic memory, providing evidence that a standard multivitamin can support selected cognitive outcomes in some older adults.”

“People who have narcolepsy, a chronic neurological disorder, experience very irregular sleep-wake cycles and may fall asleep during routine daily activities such as driving or troubleshooting a difficult problem.”
