“The Mediterranean-ketogenic diet reduced Alzheimer's biomarkers in people with mild cognitive impairment (often the first step to Alzheimer's disease) as well as in healthy individuals. This was a pilot study. Much more work needs to be done.”

“Melatonin supplementation isn’t just beneficial for sleep, it also increases antioxidant enzymes like glutathione and superoxide dismutase, decreases biomarkers of oxidative stress, reduces systolic and diastolic blood pressure, and improves clinical outcomes in cancer, surgical patients, and pregnant women.”

“Close monitoring of dietary intake, measuring of biomarkers, and a clear understanding of who might (and might not) benefit from the diet are crucial for success. But it's also important to realize that ketogenic diets aren't "one-size-fits-all."”

“They'll combine cognitive behavioral therapy with sauna use and measure inflammatory biomarkers (which are often elevated in people who have depression) to gauge the intervention's effects.”

“00:30:44 - In the context of aging, how the fasting mimicking diet has been shown to “reset” metabolism, driving down biomarkers associated with poor metabolic health, inflammation, and cardiovascular health.”

“At the end of the study, the participants with low vitamin C levels had lower VO2 max levels compared to the high vitamin C group. Blood biomarkers for oxidative stress decreased with vitamin C supplementation in the men with low baseline vitamin C levels only.”

“Investigators conducted a randomized, controlled, crossover trial with 51 adults (60 years and older) who were living in a residential care facility and had elevated zonulin, a biomarker of impaired gut barrier function.”

“These days he tries not to overcomplicate his diet, choosing to eat whole plant-based foods as close to their natural state as possible. He measures blood biomarkers and takes supplements as needed, particularly for vitamin B12.”

“Although epigenetic clocks clearly relate to causal aspects of aging, scientists don't know if the clocks are inherently causal. At this time, the clocks are not validated for use as clinical biomarkers for individual use, but rather to look at trends across larger studies.”

“Dr. Attia separates transient exercise-related glucose rises from sustained dysglycemia and treats HbA1c, average glucose, variability, and context as complementary signals rather than one universal glucose target.”
