“A critical element in healthiness is the timing and content of our meals. Time-restricted eating, a form of daily fasting wherein the time of the day during which a person eats is limited, capitalizes on the body's natural circadian metabolic rhythms to promote health.”

“Dom's efforts at teasing out the differences between induced nutritional ketosis (through a low carbohydrate, high fat diet) and ketosis from the dietary introduction of exogenous ketones, like beta-hydroxybutyrate, especially in the context of therapeutic and performance enhancing effects.”

“Altering those cues from those normal day-night patterns can have negative effects on our metabolism, especially in organs like the liver. In this clip, Dr. Satchin Panda describes CLOCK's varied response to light and food and how those responses affect metabolism.”

“While some forms of Parkinson's disease are genetic, most cases involve a complex interaction between genetic and environmental risk factors. In the early 1980s, intravenous drug users inadvertently injected a contaminated drug and developed parkinsonian symptoms overnight.”

“For example, growing up in an overly hygienic environment increases a child's risk for developing autoimmune diseases, but exposure to dirt, especially from soil, pets, and roaches, in the first year of life may provide protection against asthma and allergy-related skin disease.”

“Patients assigned to supervised exercise during neoadjuvant chemoradiation, followed by continued activity before surgery, were more likely to achieve a complete or near-complete pathological response than those receiving usual care.”

“One of the mechanisms behind the beneficial effects of exercise is its ability to induce autophagy in skeletal muscle and, potentially, other organs. In this clip, Dr. Guido Kroemer describes the anti-diabetes and anti-obesity effects of exercise-induced autophagy.”

“In this clip, Drs. Levine and Patrick discuss genetic and environmental factors that can accelerate or slow epigenetic aging. Dr. Levine also discusses the aging clock she created and how it can be used, along with other biomarkers, to determine an individual's rate of aging.”

“When produced during exercise (especially high intensity workouts like cycling, which shifts metabolism toward glycolysis to more quickly meet the high energetic demands), lactate switches on more than 600 genes involved in muscle adaptation, stimulates mitochondrial biogenesis – the process of making new mitochondria – and promotes protein synthesis, which is essential for muscle growth.”

“While the alcohol concentration in breast milk is low, infants cannot metabolize it very well and can cause altered sleep habits, decreased appetite, weight gain, low blood sugars, and impaired motor development.”
