“The comparison depends on what a dietary fat replaces. Randomized trials show that replacing palmitic acid, a common saturated fat, with unsaturated fats lowers LDL cholesterol and apolipoprotein B without a consistent effect on glucose, insulin, or C-reactive protein.”

“A meta-analysis showed that men and women achieved similar increases in muscle with resistance training, despite men having higher testosterone levels. While daily fluctuations in testosterone do not drive muscle protein synthesis, supraphysiological steroid doses are anabolic.”

“A small one-year randomized trial in older adults appeared to buffer decline on a verbal-learning task and increased activation in selected frontal regions; the result needs replication and does not establish broad cognitive enhancement.”

“For a product-selection companion to these exposure-reduction strategies, read Dr. Patrick's analysis of how reliably “clean” labels describe finished personal-care and cleaning products. A nontargeted laboratory study found far more compounds than labels disclosed, but it did not measure absorbed dose or show that the tested products caused disease.”

“In Aliquots #131 and #133, leading researcher Dr. Darren Candow and I examined creatine's benefits for muscle quality, physical function, skeletal health, and brain resilience, especially in older adults.”

“Many harmful behaviors, such as overeating or smoking, are rooted in reward-based processes. Consequently, people often engage in these behaviors in response to triggers, such as emotional or mental stressors, or external prompts, such as advertising and social pressures.”

“00:20:21 - Some of the key blood-based biomarkers that are useful for tracking and projecting future cognitive health, including: homocysteine (<7μml/L preferred), which Dr. Bredesen indicates may be a mediator of cerebral atrophy, and also fasting insulin (<5% preferred), hemoglobin A1c, fasting glucose, vitamin D, and a number of other hormones relevant for trophic support.”

Dr. Rhonda Patrick answers audience questions on various health, nutrition, and science topics in this Q&A session.

“Timing matters when cold exposure follows resistance training. In a 12-week study of 21 men, ten minutes of cold-water immersion immediately after each session attenuated gains in strength and muscle mass and reduced selected anabolic signals.”

“Reversing the Cardiac Effects of Sedentary Aging in Middle Age—A Randomized Controlled Trial - In sedentary middle-aged adults, 2 years of regular exercise improved heart function and reduced heart stiffness, potentially lowering future heart failure risk.”
