“In this clip, Dr. Steve Horvath describes research suggesting that caloric restriction in animals, although it is unclear this will translate to humans. However, there is much optimism to be had for the treatment and resolution of metabolic syndrome and obesity as a strong factor in slowing epigenetic aging.”

“The link between obesity and behavioral cognitive problems is likely mediated by elevated inflammation since fat cells are significant producers of inflammation. Recent studies have connected cognitive-behavioral disturbance, body mass index, and inflammation.”

“Findings from a new study suggest that fasting "jump starts" dietary strategies to improve symptoms of metabolic syndrome. The "Western diet," also known as the Standard American Diet, is rich in processed foods, red meat, high-fat dairy products, and added sugars.”

“But whether the benefits of exercise are greater depending on when one exercises – morning versus afternoon – is a matter of considerable debate. A recent study shows that morning exercise reduces blood pressure, fasting insulin, and insulin resistance better than afternoon exercise in people with metabolic syndrome.”

“Metabolic syndrome is a cluster of conditions that includes hypertension, high blood glucose, excess abdominal fat, and abnormal blood lipids. Having metabolic syndrome markedly increases a person's risk of cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes, and stroke.”

“One month of dawn-to-dusk fasting decreases proteins that drive atherosclerosis, heart disease, and cancer in people who have metabolic syndrome, a recent study has found. People who fasted also lost weight and saw improvements in their metabolic and cardiovascular health.”

“More than a third of adults living in the United States have metabolic syndrome, a constellation of conditions that includes abdominal (central) obesity, high blood pressure, high fasting plasma glucose, high serum triglycerides, and low high-density lipoprotein levels.”

“FTA: > For people with metabolic syndrome, a Mediterranean diet supplemented with extra-virgin olive oil or nuts may help reverse the condition, indicate findings from a clinical trial.”

“Doing both resistance and aerobic exercises provided the greatest benefits as the best exercise modality for the prevention of metabolic syndrome. This large cohort study found that resistance exercise, independent of aerobic exercise, significantly decreases the risk of development of metabolic syndrome compared with no resistance exercise in a middle-aged relatively healthy population.”
