Search results for saturated fat

“They collected adipose tissue samples from multiple fat depots around the body such as subcutaneous fat (under the skin), visceral fat (wrapped around internal organs), and pericardial and epicardial fat (around the heart) on the day participants underwent bariatric surgery.”

“Strength and muscular endurance gains were similar across most measures, except for the squat: The FED group improved squat strength by ~4 kg more than TRE. TRE yielded more favorable outcomes in fat mass reduction, even in a surplus—suggesting a potential recomposition benefit.”

“01:52:55 - Environmental enrichment creates epigenetic changes that benefit learning and memory in rodents and these benefits transfer to offspring. Study. 02:05:00 - NASA study showed that gravity influenced expression of genes involved in metastasis.”

“Daylight also increased the 9 p.m. to 11 p.m. melatonin exposure by 16%, and myotubes cultured from muscle biopsies showed a roughly 45-minute phase advance. Fat oxidation increased, while the primary outcome of average glucose and meal-related insulin responses did not differ.”

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

“Obesity In a study in which mice were fed a diet that was high in fat and sugar and received a 400-milligram per kilogram of body weight (mg/kg/bw) nicotinamide riboside supplement every day for one week, the mice gained 60 percent less fat, exhibited improved insulin sensitivity, and demonstrated greater endurance and muscle strength, compared to mice that did not receive the supplement.”

“In the absence of ready supplies of glucose and fats from meals, restrictive eating practices induce a cellular "energy crisis." This crisis, in turn, liberates fat stores via fatty acid oxidation and ketone production while prioritizing safeguarding lean muscle mass and function.”

“Findings from the study demonstrated that metformin inhibited mitochondrial adaptations and improvements in cardiorespiratory fitness by 50 percent and diminished whole-body insulin sensitivity after aerobic exercise. However, metformin did not reduce improvements in HbA1c, fasting insulin, blood glucose, fat mass, or skeletal muscle telomere length.”

“In particular, evidence suggests that those participating in heavy resistance training while supplementing with 20 to 30 grams of creatine per day can maintain higher intensity training, increase fat-free mass, and increase endurance strength.”

“1 01:11:00 - Animal and human studies have shown vitamin C increases fat burning. 1, 2 01:12:12 - Transient deficiency in zinc causes dysfunction in immune T-cells. 1 01:12:24 - Zinc lozenges can reduce the length of the common cold up to 40%.”
