“Dr. Huberman delays his first meal until late morning, then uses protein-rich whole foods, fruit, vegetables, and starches according to training and appetite. His core supplements include omega-3s, vitamin D, vitamin K2, and selected products guided by his own response and blood work.”

“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.”

“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.”

“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.”

“Nicotinamide riboside and nicotinamide mononucleotide, molecules commonly referred to as NAD+ "boosters," exert beneficial effects on the brain, especially in the setting of vascular dementia.”

“A randomized-trial meta-analysis found a higher atrial-fibrillation risk with marine omega-3 supplementation, with a stronger signal at doses above 1 gram per day; the included populations generally had cardiovascular disease or elevated cardiovascular risk.”

“In contrast, a similar large trial, STRENGTH - which evaluated a free fatty acid formulation of EPA and DHA at 4 grams per day, was stopped early due to the unlikelihood of producing a favorable outcome. Scientists have speculated why these similar trials have had such different findings.”

“Parkinson's disease is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder with no cure. The disease, which typically manifests later in life, is caused by the destruction of neurons that produce dopamine — a neurotransmitter best known for its role in motor, motivation, and pleasure control.”

“In STEP 1, once-weekly semaglutide plus lifestyle support produced an average weight reduction of 14.9% over 68 weeks, compared with 2.4% with placebo, establishing strong efficacy for selected adults with overweight or obesity.”
