“00:23:48 - The distinction between various forms of short-term stress, which may have minimal effect on telomere length, versus the more harmful longer-term variety associated with a profile of chronic demoralization. 00:28:34 - The beneficial impact of aerobic exercise on telomere length and as a reducer of stress and ruminative thinking.”

“The liver is a versatile organ with many digestive functions. During feeding the liver metabolizes food from the intestines, and during fasting or while following a ketogenic diet, it produces ketone bodies. In this clip, Dr. Eric Verdin describes the liver's functions and posits that the ketogenic diet does not put any undue stress on the liver.”

“In this clip, Dr. Dominic D'Agostino explains the interrelationship between ketones and lactate as sources of energy for the brain and the role ketones may have in reducing oxidative stress through greater energetic efficiency.”

“Heat exposure – from sauna use, hot tubs, or even hot baths – is a powerful hormetic stressor. Heat stress benefits the body's cardiovascular, neurological, metabolic, and musculoskeletal systems, extending both healthspan and lifespan.”

“Researchers have determined that beta-hydroxybutyrate is an endogenous regulator of HDACs and is able to regulate age-related genes such as FOXO3. In this clip, Dr. Eric Verdin discusses the role of beta-hydroxybutyrate in protecting against oxidative stress, both as a nutrient, but also as a transcription regulator.”

“In this talk, we’ll be exploring the intersection between genetics, nutrition, and environment: how your diet, micronutrients, exercise, heat stress, and sleep can change the expression of your genes and how this has profound effects on the way your body functions and ages.”

“Acute stress may create a different context. In a double-blind crossover study of 15 adults undergoing 21 hours of sleep deprivation, a single 0.35-gram-per-kilogram dose changed brain high-energy phosphate measures and improved selected cognitive outcomes.”

“- Practical details like temperature and duration of sauna use, the difference between a dry, wet and infrared sauna, sauna timing, as well as other forms of heat stress such as steam showers, hot baths, and hot yoga.”

“The brain makes some creatine locally and regulates entry from the blood through the blood-brain barrier. Dr. Candow therefore expects dose, duration, age, diet, and metabolic stress to influence how much supplemental creatine reaches brain tissue.”

“Autophagy is a highly conserved adaptive response to stress during which a cell gathers unnecessary or damaged cellular components such as protein aggregates, pathogens, or organelles into vesicles and delivers them to lysosomes for destruction.”
