“This research was done by Prof. Valter Longo at USC. I recently interviewed Valter and he talked in great detail about prolonged fasting and how it affects the clearance of damaged cells through autophagy, boosts stem cell production to replace the damaged cells and more.”

“Subjects rested (control), walked briskly for 30 min (walking) or performed 5×30 s maximal sprints (high-intensity). Another study found that the beneficial effects of high-intensity interval training on postprandial triglyceride levels were abolished 2 days after exercise.”

“01:03:50 - Liposomal glutathione bypasses cellular transport mechanisms to increase heart, brain, and liver glutathione levels. Study. 01:06:50 - Topical application of glutathione reduced inflammation and cell death after brain injury in mice.”

“Evidence from a clinical trial indicates that omega-3 fatty acids reduce symptoms of depression associated with inflammation. Chronic inflammation plays key roles in the development of many diseases, including cancer, cardiovascular disease, and diabetes.”

“Does microbiome composition drive osteoarthritis? A standard American-like diet caused osteoarthritis in mice by changing the composition of the gut microbiome and subsequently increasing inflammation. The osteoarthritis was reversed by a prebiotic, called oligofructose.”

“They found that macrophages from the exercised mice exhibited decreased activation of NF-κB, the primary transcription factor of M1 macrophages. The macrophages also demonstrated reduced expression of inflammation-related genes, increased expression of M2 macrophage-associated genes, and improved mitochondrial function.”
