“This distinction is vital for muscle preservation, which relies on dietary protein and resistance exercise. Unfortunately, fasting can lead to muscle loss due to reduced protein intake. However, combining fasting with resistance training can stimulate muscle growth.”

“In a randomized trial of resistance-trained women, an eight-hour eating window did not reduce gains in lean mass, muscle thickness, strength, or performance when energy and protein intake were matched and the participants completed supervised resistance training.”

“In this Aliquot, Drs. Peter Attia, Stuart Phillips, Morgan Levine, Brad Schoenfeld, Michael Snyder, Valter Longo, Martin Gibala, George Church, as well as Kevin and Darya Rose and myself, share our strategies for finding our fitness.”

“Circadian rhythms modulate a wide array of the body's physiological processes, ultimately influencing body weight, performance, and susceptibility to disease. Coordination of meal timing with the circadian rhythm can reduce markers of inflammation and affect aspects of metabolic health, including glucose regulation and insulin sensitivity.”

“Building muscle mass in one's early years is essential for staving off the age-related loss of muscle mass and may promote longevity. In this Aliquot, Dr. Stuart Phillips discusses the importance of building muscle through resistance training and why starting early is important.”

Dr. Rhonda Patrick discusses nicotinamide riboside, biomarkers, belly fat loss, sex-specific health, curcumin & ashwagandha safety.

“She also discusses a small randomized immobilization trial in young women in which high-dose omega-3 reduced, but did not eliminate, disuse loss. The result does not replace protein, resistance training, or rehabilitation.”

“In this Aliquot, I explain why visceral fat behaves so differently from other fat, how it drives insulin resistance and chronic disease, and what research shows about the most effective ways to reduce it.”

“A separate five-day overfeeding study in healthy young men also showed that visceral fat can increase before the scale records a significant change in body weight. Sleep may also affect fat distribution.”

“Circadian rhythms play key roles in metabolic health and ultimately influence body weight, performance, and susceptibility to diseases like diabetes and cancer. Aligning food intake with circadian rhythms can improve many aspects of metabolic health.”
