“This episode of the Aliquot features FoundMyFitness guests with expertise in fields including lipid metabolism, Alzheimer's disease, and micronutrient biochemistry sharing their recommendations regarding blood tests that a person should consider adding to their yearly checkup.”

“Dr. Cronise describes his extended, unsupplemented fast after which he observed no apparent metabolic changes, and he challenges the paradigm that nutrients need to be balanced daily. In this clip, Dr. Ray Cronise and Dr. Rhonda Patrick discuss the importance of diet in maximizing healthspan and longevity.”

Dr. Rhonda Patrick discusses organic produce, fasting-mimicking diets, sleep, sauna, sunscreens, red light therapy, reverse osmosis water, and fiber.

“Fiber plays a pivotal role in fueling good bacteria in the gut, which produce compounds that keep the immune system in check and prevent autoimmune responses. Research suggests that maintaining a protective mucin layer in the gut helps restrict the release of endotoxin from intestinal bacteria, a major source of inflammation.”

“Small, inadequately designed clinical trials suggest that ivermectin, possibly in combination with other therapeutics might enhance viral clearance in some populations. However, more data is required before a drug can be repurposed and safely prescribed.”

“Dr. Patrick recommends transferring food to glass or ceramic before heating and treating BPA-free labels cautiously because replacement chemicals can have their own biological activity.”

“Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an autoimmune neurodegenerative disorder that destroys myelin, the insulating layer that surrounds neurons. The causes of MS are complex and may arise from both genetic and environmental factors, including nutritional deficiencies.”

“Dr. Patrick also cautions that glutamine can serve as fuel for rapidly dividing cells; people with cancer, a history of polyps, or active gastrointestinal disease should not treat supplementation as routine and should discuss it with a clinician.”

“The main ingredient-interaction evidence concerns polyphenol oxidase. A small controlled crossover study found that a high-PPO banana smoothie greatly reduced circulating flavan-3-ol metabolites compared with a low-PPO berry drink or capsule control.”

Dr. Rhonda Patrick discusses glucosamine and Alzheimer's, blood flow restriction, beta-glucan fiber, creatine, collagen, red light therapy, and curcumin.
