“In more than 25,000 adults who reported no leisure-time exercise, a median of three one- or two-minute bouts per day was associated with 38 to 40 percent lower all-cause and cancer mortality and 48 to 49 percent lower cardiovascular mortality compared with no VILPA.”

“Dr. Patrick proposes a general-population allocation in which about half of aerobic training time is vigorous, near 80% of maximum heart rate or higher, with more vigorous emphasis for people who train only two or three times per week.”

“In 15 people with severe traumatic brain injury, sodium lactate infusion increased brain lactate, pyruvate, and glucose without raising intracranial pressure, and a randomized study in 60 patients with mild traumatic brain injury reported better cognitive recovery than hypertonic saline.”

“In an early randomized workplace study, healthy employees who completed an eight-week mindfulness program showed a greater rise in antibodies after influenza vaccination than a waitlist group.”

“In a small trial of 30 people with stable heart failure, 1,000 milligrams twice daily approximately doubled whole-blood NAD and appeared tolerable while supporting further study rather than proving treatment benefit.”

“Randomized trials and a meta-analysis show that at least three grams of oat beta-glucan per day can lower LDL by about five to seven percent, with high-molecular-weight products producing the most consistent effects.”

“In the prospective Framingham Offspring Study, people in the highest red-blood-cell DHA group had approximately 49 percent lower risk of developing Alzheimer's disease than those in the lowest group.”
