“However, combining fasting with resistance training can stimulate muscle growth. In this Aliquot, Dr. Rhonda Patrick discusses time-restricted eating, fasting, and muscle preservation, highlighting key differences and offering recommendations for specific groups.”

“In this FoundMyFitness Premium Q&A preview, Dr. Rhonda Patrick reviews common contributors to fragmented sleep, including insomnia, sleep apnea, nocturia, psychological stress, irregular schedules, caffeine, alcohol, light, noise, temperature, and late eating.”

Consequently, people who break their fast later, such as midday, might not get the same metabolic benefits associated with time-restricted eating as someone who breaks their faster earlier.”

“By modulating our eating patterns and light exposure, we might offset this energy dip. In this clip, Dr. Satchin Panda discusses factors that determine our daily energy fluctuations and how we can counteract low periods.”

“Ventilate your bedroom or use CO2 monitoring—CO2 levels above 900 ppm can impair sleep quality. Avoid screens and stimulation in the hour before bed. Focus on sleep regularity, not just total hours, to support circadian rhythm health.”

“Many people are indoors during the daytime where they are not exposed to bright light, while artificial lighting allows light exposure during the night. Light exposure is essential for entraining a variety of bodily rhythms such as cortisol release and cytokine production.”

“Regulating the amount of light in our environment is crucial for a good night's sleep and a good mood the next day. Habits such as using blue light-emitting electronics close to bedtime can reduce melatonin production by as much as 20 percent, impairing sleep.”

“While there are no human clinical studies evaluating the effectiveness of melatonin for COVID-19, melatonin has been shown to prevent acute lung injury and acute respiratory distress syndrome due to viral infection in animal studies.”
