“In this 45-minute podcast, Dr. Patrick answers some of the most popular questions related to fasting, including: What effects coffee, supplements, and amino acids have on fasting. Whether one method of fasting is more beneficial than others.”

“Integral to the benefits associated with time-restricted eating is the concept of fasting physiology, which taps into ancient patterns of defined periods of eating and resting for the purposes of survival.”

“Dr. Rhonda Patrick discusses the differences between different forms of DHA in terms of bioavailability and transport into different cells. She talks about why a specific type of DHA (DHA in phosphatidylcholine) is more readily transported into the brain because it forms DHA-lysophsophatidylcholine.”

Dr. Rhonda Patrick explores collagen peptides, high-dose niacin and vitamin B6, avoiding nano- and microplastics in her latest Q&A.

“Fats also aid in the maturation of an infant's gastrointestinal and central nervous systems and provide protection from pathogens. Perhaps the best known of the fats in breast milk is docosahexaenoic acid, or DHA, an omega-3 fatty acid that plays critical roles in brain development.”

“While both can be useful (depending on context), they have different implications: much like a person's glucose may fluctuate throughout the day, standard lab measures of omega-3 rely on plasma, biasing them to the content of a recent meal.”

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

“Specific topics include autophagy, the process of recycling dysfunctional cells that is induced by fasting and fasting-mimicking drugs such as resveratrol and spermidine. Rhonda discusses the effects of fasting on Parkinson's disease and which groups of people should not fast.”

“Whereas fasting turns off multiple pathways associated with aging, such as mTOR, IGF-1, growth hormone, and others, eating for optimal fitness activates these important processes. This Aliquot features Drs. Guido Kroemer, Dominic D'Agostino, Valter Longo, Peter Attia, and Rhonda Patrick.”

In this clip, Dr. Bill Harris describes his early research using high doses of omega-3 fatty acids, which uncovered their surprising effects on triglycerides.
