“A 2024 review of 13 studies on Vaccinium berries (including blueberries, cranberries, and bilberries) found no performance benefit and a clear recovery benefit in only one. That positive study involved 10 women completing repeated eccentric (muscle-damaging) exercise.”

“Further research will likely inform recommendations for appropriate doses to elicit optimal performance and safety profiles. Conclusion Nicotinamide riboside serves as a precursor to NAD+. Data from multiple studies suggest that nicotinamide riboside elicits positive health effects in both animals and humans.”

“At the end of the 12-month intervention, the study's authors assessed the participants' memory function, cardiorespiratory fitness, and cerebral blood flow. Participants enrolled in the one-year exercise program exhibited marked improvements in cardiorespiratory fitness and memory performance.”

“Optionally including a link back to this page is appreciated. 00:00:30 - Who the episode is for: nerds, biohackers, people interested in life extension, dangers and promises of supplements, and performance enhancement. 00:00:48 - Brief mention of Dr. Bruce Ames from Tim.”

“In a small crossover trial involving people with insulin resistance, six one-minute intense intervals performed before the three main meals improved daily glucose control compared with one continuous 30-minute session.”

“As such, fasting provides a mechanism that not only improves overall body composition but also triggers the activation of biochemical processes and signaling pathways that optimize human performance and physiological function, possibly slowing the processes of aging and disease.”

“"glycemic response to the same meal at different times of the day demonstrated that the postprandial (after a meal) glucose increase was lowest in the morning and highest in the evening". Time-restricted eating and metabolic health The circadian system is profoundly intertwined with an organism's metabolism to optimize performance over a 24-hour cycle.”

“Short-term sprint interval versus traditional endurance training: similar initial adaptations in human skeletal muscle and exercise performance. Physiological adaptations to low‐volume, high‐intensity interval training in health and disease.”

“But it involves more than just rest; effective recovery includes proper nutrition, hydration, and sleep to support overall health and performance. Prioritizing recovery helps prevent injury, enhances muscle repair, and ultimately drives better training results.”

“An abundance of scientific data clearly demonstrates that eating a carbohydrate-rich meal prior to endurance exercise training – more than 60 minutes' duration – markedly improves performance in humans.”
