“In this clip from How to Train According to the Experts, Dr. Rhonda Patrick and Brady Holmer explain three practical ways to estimate cardio intensity: heart rate, the Borg rating of perceived exertion, and the talk test.”

“Cognitive enhancement is a hot topic, but the best ways to sharpen focus, boost motivation, and support brain health aren't always clear-cut. Stimulants like nicotine and caffeine offer immediate benefits but come with trade-offs—some minor, others riskier.”

“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.”

“In this clip from Dr. Rhonda Patrick's conversation with Derek from More Plates More Dates, she describes the large glucose changes she observed during fragmented postpartum sleep and explains why she uses brief, intense exercise after poor sleep during travel.”

“In a randomized trial of 120 older adults, a walking program that progressed to about 40 minutes three times per week increased anterior hippocampal volume by approximately 2 percent and improved spatial memory over one year.”

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

“In a randomized crossover study of 18 men with overweight or obesity, breaking sitting with squatting or short walking bouts lowered post-meal glucose exposure more than one 30-minute walk, even when energy use and total activity time were matched.”

“In a 12-week randomized crossover trial, a modified ketogenic diet produced sustained physiological ketosis and improved daily function and quality of life compared with a usual diet supplemented with low-fat healthy-eating guidance.”

“In his clinical framework, Dr. Attia first asks how much weekly exercise a patient is willing to do, divides that time between strength and stability work and cardio, and then applies the 80/20 split to the cardio portion.”

“Physical activity, sleep, light exposure, heat, and certain nutrients may all affect systems involved in mood regulation, including inflammation, circadian rhythms, neuroplasticity, and brain energy metabolism. In this Aliquot, Drs.”
