“When we give mice ad libitum access to food, they can eat anytime, then they will eat nearly 85% of the food during nighttime when they're awake, 15% to 30% of food during daytime when they typically sleep. And in this lifestyle, the mice will slowly gain weight.”

“They observed that people who carried a variant form of the melatonin receptor gene (MTNR1B) were more likely to have obesity or diabetes. The prevailing thought is that when melatonin is bound to its receptor, it suppresses the pancreas from producing insulin.”

“- Axel Montagne, Ph.D. While we await potential breakthroughs in targeting elements of the neurovascular unit in the blood-brain barrier directly with stem cell therapeutics, gene therapies, and other cutting-edge techniques, there are things we can do now to better support vascular health and thereby help maintain the integrity of the blood-brain barrier.”

“Many factors promote inflammation: obesity, being sedentary, excessive alcohol intake, and smoking, among others. We can't pick our genes, but reducing these factors in our lives will likely improve our aging.”
Losing belly fat with diet and exercise improved cognitive function and slowed brain atrophy up to a decade later.
Episode
“However, there is more to this story. In another major study, middle aged adults consuming high protein diets did show increased mortality rates, but only if they had other unhealthy lifestyle factors like obesity, smoking, heavy drinking or being sedentary.”

“In The Science of Protein, Dr. Rhonda Patrick uses roughly 1.2–1.6 g/kg/day as a practical framework, calculated from lean mass or an adjusted healthy goal weight when current body fat would create an unrealistic target.”
“> • Fed a high fat diet (45 percent fat), enriched animals gained 29 percent less weight than control mice and remained lean, with no change in food intake. Enriched animals also had a higher body temperature, suggesting that greater energy output, not suppressed appetite, led to the resistance to obesity.”
“These findings add to a growing number of studies investigating the role of diet and obesity in cognitive decline. The authors encourage future researchers to investigate the interactions between olfactory and endocrine systems in people with obesity and type 2 diabetes.”
Episode
“So obesity is now reaching epidemic levels in the United States. In fact, about 60 million people suffer from this disease in America. And childhood obesity is growing by 50% per decade.”
