“Naturally occurring forms of vitamin K include phylloquinone, known as vitamin K1, and a family of molecules called menaquinones, known as vitamin K2. In this Aliquot, Dr. Bruce Ames and I discuss the differences between (and dietary sources of) vitamins K1 and K2 and their effects on human health.”

“An enriched marine-oil study produced time- and dose-dependent increases in specialized pro-resolving mediators and altered blood-cell responses over 24 hours; it tested biomarkers, not disease prevention. Exercise, sauna, and cruciferous vegetables act through different pathways.”

“In the modern-day with no imposed fasting, these cycles of renewal may remain dormant. In this clip, Dr. Valter Longo discusses how cellular repair mechanisms may have evolved during times of fasting, but are latent in times of food abundance.”

“01:17:42 - Aromatic turmerone from turmeric repairs damage to the brain by inducing neural stem cell proliferation. Study. 01:22:45 - Decreased sense of smell is a predictor of mild cognitive impairment and Alzheimer's disease.”

“Dr. Rhonda Patrick discusses how conditioning the body to heat stress through sauna use, called "hyperthermic conditioning" may cause adaptations that increase athletic endurance (by increasing plasma volume and blood flow to heart and muscles) and potentially even muscle mass. She also discusses the profound effects of hyperthermic conditioning on the brain including cognitive function.”

“In this talk, we’ll be exploring the intersection between genetics, nutrition, and environment: how your diet, micronutrients, exercise, heat stress, and sleep can change the expression of your genes and how this has profound effects on the way your body functions and ages.”

“But it also participates in the repair of muscles and neurons and promotes brain health. Directing IGF-1 toward its more beneficial processes through exercise may offer protection from its deleterious effects.”

“A larger randomized-trial meta-analysis also found modest average reductions in BMI, waist circumference, and body-fat percentage, although protocols and populations varied. These averages do not mean that HIIT alone guarantees fat loss.”

“In a randomized trial of resistance-trained women, an eight-hour eating window did not reduce gains in lean mass, muscle thickness, strength, or performance when energy and protein intake were matched and the participants completed supervised resistance training.”

“Magnesium, a mineral found in dark leafy greens, serves as a cofactor in several biological functions, including energy production and DNA repair. National surveys indicate that much of the US population is not meeting their daily magnesium requirement.”
