“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.”
Episode
“Some of the factors contributing to these variable phenotypes include persistent damage to our DNA and mitochondrial dysfunction, driven by an altered NAD:NADH ratio, the latter of which has recently been shown to be improved by certain dietary supplements like nicotinamide riboside.”
Episode
“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.”

“Thanks to Kyle and MedCram for having me for his interview. 00:58:31 - Rhonda's personal sauna protocol: duration, temperature, humidity, and frequency MedCram is a YouTube channel created by Kyle Allred, PA-C and Roger Sehuelt, MD, master educators of health and medical science.”
Clip
“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.”
Clip
“Brain health depends on periods of high heart rate. Failing that, brain capillary health is compromised, and neurons are lost. In this clip, Dr. Axel Montagne highlights how 90 percent of our brain vasculature are tiny blood vessels - without exercise, they collapse, and neurons die.”
Clip
“A meta-analysis of resistance-training trials found that protein supplementation produced modest additional gains in strength and fat-free mass, with average fat-free-mass benefit plateauing near 1.62 g/kg/day. This is a group estimate, not a precise requirement for every older adult.”
Clip
“In a small immobilization trial, five grams per day of omega-3 fatty acids reduced the loss of muscle volume in young women compared with sunflower oil, supporting continued research on omega-3s and disuse atrophy. Heat is the fourth proposed tool.”
“Specific topics include autophagy, the process of recycling dysfunctional cells that is induced by fasting and fasting-mimicking drugs such as resveratrol and spermidine. Rhonda discusses the effects of fasting on Parkinson's disease and which groups of people should not fast.”
