“In a study of more than 25,000 UK Biobank adults who reported no structured exercise, about three short VILPA bouts per day were associated with 38 to 40 percent lower all-cause and cancer mortality and 48 to 49 percent lower cardiovascular mortality compared with no VILPA.”

“In 5,107 middle-aged men followed for 46 years, moving from very low fitness into progressively higher categories was associated with roughly two to five additional years of life, and each one-unit increase in VO2 max was associated with 45 more days of longevity.”

“Creatine helps regenerate ATP in muscle, brain, and other tissues. In this clip from Dr. Rhonda Patrick's appearance on The Jordan Harbinger Show, she discusses creatine monohydrate for physical performance and emerging cognitive applications.”

“A new study shows that longer breastfeeding improves children's academic performance. Children who breastfed for longer duration performed better on standardized tests than those who breastfed for shorter periods.”

“The evidence is therefore established for exercise performance and training adaptation, while routine brain dosing and benefits in well-rested healthy adults remain uncertain. This clip is excerpted, with permission, from Dr. Rhonda Patrick's appearance on The Diary of a CEO.”

“Consequently, magnesium levels drop after exercise, increasing muscle soreness and impairing performance. A recent review found that magnesium supplementation reduces muscle soreness, improves performance, and protects against muscle damage.”

“##Vitamin C as performance enhancer – or hindrance Vitamin C appears to enhance exercise performance by reducing the potential negative consequences of excess reactive oxygen species – highly reactive molecules produced during not only normal metabolic processes but also during exercise, as a consequence of exercise-induced immune activation.”

“A small randomized trial in trained athletes found that 20 milligrams per day for two weeks increased total antioxidant capacity and glutathione peroxidase and reduced post-training DNA damage versus placebo; it did not test performance or long-term adaptation.”

“The default mode network is a collection of interconnected neural structures involved in attention and focus. Disturbances in default mode network connectivity are associated with poor working memory, reduced performance, and work-related productivity losses.”
