“Emerging evidence suggests that IGF-1 also regulates the aging process via its influence on growth hormone. In this clip, Dr. Valter Longo describes the IGF-1 pathway and explains how defects in the pathway influence disease risk.”

“Measures such as refreshing and recirculating cabin air through specialized filters contribute to low transmission on airplanes. In this clip, Dr. Roger Seheult explains that well-ventilated spaces are a factor in dampening the spread of the SARS-CoV-2 virus.”

“IGF-1 participates in a complex pathway known as the growth hormone/IGF-1 axis, where it exerts its role to accelerate aging. In this clip, Dr. Valter Longo explains how certain macronutrients influence the insulin/IGF-1/growth hormone axis to modulate aging in many cell types.”

“Insulin-like growth factor-1, or IGF-1, is a hormone that plays key roles in growth and neurogenesis but has also been implicated in aging and stimulating the growth of cancer. Therefore, it may be desirable to achieve higher IGF-1 levels in the brain, while maintaining lower levels in the rest of the body.”

“Insulin-like growth factor-1, or IGF-1 for short, is a protein that plays critical roles in major growth pathways in the human body. It influences nearly every tissue in the body, especially developmental growth, skeletal muscle and neurons.”

“Dr. Attia says checking lactate during every cycling session is his own data-heavy practice, not something most people need to do. For most people, he favors rate of perceived exertion and the talk test, with heart-rate formulas used only as starting points.”

“Insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) plays a role during childhood for growth and continues later in life to have anabolic and neurotrophic effects. IGF-1 is also implicated in contributing to aging and enhancing the growth of cancer after it has been initiated.”

“A healthy immune system allows the body to fight bacterial and viral infections, as well as aberrant cells, which, left unchecked can progress to cancer. Insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) has some beneficial functions but is also known to promote the growth of existing cancer cells.”

“SARS-CoV-2 belongs to the betacoronavirus genus of coronaviruses, which includes SARS-CoV-1, MERS-CoV, and two other human coronaviruses (HCoV-OC43 and HCoV-HKU1), which are responsible for some forms of the “common cold.” The betacoronaviruses can induce immune responses against one another.”
