“Visceral fat accumulation is linked to type 2 diabetes, insulin resistance, inflammatory diseases, certain types of cancer, cardiovascular disease, and other obesity-related diseases.”

“The proteomic analysis revealed that the 30-day daytime fast influenced the production of proteins that protect against chronic conditions such as cancer, metabolic syndrome, inflammation, and Alzheimer's disease, among others.”

“Interviews covering prolonged fasting and fasting-mimicking: Valter Longo, Ph.D. on Fasting-Mimicking Diet & Fasting for Longevity, Cancer & Multiple Sclerosis. Dr. Valter Longo on Resetting Autoimmunity and Rejuvenating Systems with Prolonged Fasting & the FMD.”

“A final concern is that of a potential for increased cancer risk. Some evidence suggests that NMN supplementation or NAD+ metabolism may drive tumorigenesis, especially in the proinflammatory environment associated with senescent cells.”

“Rhonda discusses how cold exposure increases norepinephrine up to 5-fold in the brain and what the temperature and duration needed to do this are, how norepinephrine has an effect on mood, vigilance, focus, and attention, how cold exposure increases cold shock proteins including one in the brain that repairs damaged synapses and in muscle prevents atrophy…”

“The main clinical-endpoint trial, however, did not significantly reduce total cancer, cardiovascular disease, or all-cause mortality. Together, these findings support a modest nutritional-sufficiency interpretation—not a claim that multivitamins broadly slow aging or prevent disease.”

“Epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) is found in tea. It exerts potent antioxidant, anti-cancer, and anti-proliferative properties. EGCG suppresses neuroendocrine pathways involved in alertness, thus providing anti-anxiety and hypnotic effects.”

“For example, streptococcus bacterial infection, which causes strep throat, increases a person's risk for rheumatic fever, causing fatigue, joint pain, and a dangerous buildup of fluid around the heart. Similarly, human papilloma virus infection, a generally mild sexually transmitted disease, can increase a person's risk for certain types of cancer.”

“Another study demonstrated that cold exposure increased the number of white blood cells, including cytotoxic T lymphocytes, a specialized type of immune cell that can kill cancer cells. The white cell counts remained elevated at two hours of cold exposure.”

“Researchers have studied how the Val66Met SNP affects various aspects of cognition. Previous research has demonstrated that women with breast cancer who were treated with chemotherapy experienced varying levels of cognitive decline.”
