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

“The SCN, in turn, coordinates the body's peripheral clocks, such as those found in the liver, pancreas, muscles, and fatty tissue, driving rhythms of rest and activity that determine eating-fasting cycles.”

“Dr. Patrick discusses paraquat and rotenone because both can damage mitochondria and are used experimentally to model Parkinson-like neurodegeneration, but that rationale does not prove that either chemical caused disease in this population.”

“In Aliquot #107, we heard from ten experts who shared how they put their knowledge into practice—applying insights from their own research and their colleagues to support their personal health and fitness.”

“Furthermore, where we lose pericytes - which are important for dementia prevention - overlaps with the loss of DHA transporters. In this clip, Dr. Axel Montagne discusses how the brain transport of omega-3 DHA may be important for the prevention and possibly as a therapy for dementia.”

“Practicing healthy light exposure habits — seeking bright light in the morning and avoiding it in the evening — is crucial. When we eat also plays a role, and eating too close to bedtime disrupts sleep and shifts circadian timing over the next few days.”

“His research has shown that the chief culprit of atherogenic dyslipidemia is simple, refined sugar. In this clip, Dr. Ronald Krauss shares his experience in research showing heart disease risk is more influenced by sugar consumption than fat consumption.”

“Deep, slow-wave sleep – the non-REM form of sleep – preps the brain for the input and storage of information to facilitate the formation of memories. But during REM sleep – the time when we dream – the brain fuses all those newly formed memories with a lifetime of stored experiences and associations, allowing them to coalesce and build novel new connections.”

“A growing body of evidence suggests that sulforaphane's protective effects extend to the brain, where it appears to enhance brain-derived neurotrophic factor (a protein that controls and promotes the growth of new neurons) and inhibits histone deacetylation (an epigenetic modification that influences gene expression).”

“Time-restricted eating, which involves taking in food within a specific period of the day and fasting for the remainder, can improve certain biomarkers of health - even without weight loss. One theory is that this eating pattern coordinates food intake with the body's peak metabolism period.”
