However, a recurring theme a recurring theme throughout our discussion with Dr. Bredesen is that what most labs and clinicians call normal may actually be different than what is optimal.”

“Successful aging was defined as including an absence of disability, depressive symptoms, cognitive impairment, respiratory symptoms, and chronic diseases including cancer, coronary artery disease, and stroke.”

“The blood pressure response to sodium is generally linear above 800 mg per day, meaning that as intake increases, so does the risk. Despite this strong evidence, controversy remains regarding the optimal sodium intake for longevity and disease prevention.”

“The chronic inflammation that accompanies ulcerative colitis, a type of inflammatory bowel disease, increases the risk of developing colon cancer. New research in mice suggests a component of cannabis may prevent the development of colitis-associated colon cancer.”

“NAD+ depletion is one of the hallmarks of aging and likely contributes to the pathophysiology of a wide range of age-related conditions and diseases, such as metabolic dysfunction, neurodegenerative diseases, and cancer.”

“It also participates in many biological processes driving pregnancy outcomes, maintaining bone mineral density and muscle mass in older adults, improving neurological function, and aiding the immune system to fight cancer.”

“Chronic inflammation occurs on the cellular level in response to toxins or other stressors and is often "invisible." It plays a key role in the development of many chronic diseases, including cancer, cardiovascular disease, and diabetes.”
