“Advanced glycation end-products, or AGEs for short, are created when the sugars, amino acids, and fats in food encounter heat. AGEs also form in the body during normal glucose metabolism. However, if high levels of AGEs accumulate in the tissues and blood, they can become pathogenic.”

“During sauna use, heart rate, and blood pressure rise, returning to below baseline levels after the session. In this clip, Dr. Rhonda Patrick describes how the physiological effects observed during sauna use are comparable to those that occur during physical exercise.”

“Vitamin D also increases T-regulatory cells, which play a major role in keeping the immune system in check, particularly when it comes to autoimmune diseases. Vitamin D inhibits the production of proinflammatory cytokines, which can play a role in a cytokine storm.”

“Dr. Patrick describes strategies you can apply immediately to enhance cellular health, protect the nervous system, elevate mood, reduce inflammation, promote muscle and bone function, and help prevent chronic disease.”

“Detecting SARS-CoV-2 infection pre-symptomatically When the COVID-19 pandemic struck, Dr. Snyder's laboratory began investigating whether heart rate data might be able to inform SARS-CoV-2 infected people before symptoms arose, allowing them to get tested and self-quarantine.”

“In a study of over 190,000 people tested for SARS-CoV-2, lower 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels were strongly associated with higher SARS-CoV-2 test positivity rates, despite race/ethnicity, age, sex, and latitude.”

“For people who begin in their seventies, Dr. Levine says exercise can still lower blood pressure, improve endothelial function, alter autonomic control, and raise VO2 max even when structural remodeling of the heart is limited.”

“It remains unknown whether these levels are sufficient for optimal immunological functioning. A large meta-analysis of 32 studies, spanning nearly 50 years, suggests that 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels below 30 ng/mL are associated with a higher risk of death from all causes.”

Dr. Rhonda Patrick discusses if smoked salmon is carcinogenic, high-dose melatonin, creatine on workout vs. non-workout days, and the Neurocode brain scan.
