“The authors of the study posited that failure to publish negative or inconclusive results can contribute to skewed research priorities and public health interventions. Link to full study. Listen to this podcast in which Dr. Rhonda Patrick discusses the controversy surrounding saturated fat intake and cardiovascular disease risk.”

“> In human tests, the OSU scientists found in blood plasma extraordinarily high levels of these conjugates, which show this protective effect of vitamin C against toxic lipids. > "Prior to this, we never knew what indicators to look for that would demonstrate the protective role of vitamin C against oxidized lipids," Stevens said.”

“00:38:33 - The fasting-mimicking diet as a boon for the psychology of weight loss where, due to its cyclical nature, adherents can enjoy potential benefits like the reduction of harmful fat known as visceral fat while sparing subcutaneous fat and lean mass, without completely overhauling all other areas of their life the rest of the time.”

“Instead of relying on quick sugar, urolithin A pushed cells toward steadier, mitochondria-driven fuel, a sign of better metabolic fitness and resilience. Natural killer cells showed a similar pattern of reduced glucose dependence and enhanced fat/amino acid metabolism, while CD4+ T cells and B cells changed little.”

“After weaning, the animals' pups were given unlimited access to healthy chow initially and then allowed unlimited access to the high-fat obesogenic chow. The researchers monitored the pups' food intake and body weights and studied their brain connections.”

“After eight months, the mice consuming the Western and high-fat diets exhibited a diminished sense of smell and impaired olfactory learning and memory. However, the authors were unable to detect cellular changes related to this outcome.”

“Obesity In a study in which mice were fed a diet that was high in fat and sugar and received a 400-milligram per kilogram of body weight (mg/kg/bw) nicotinamide riboside supplement every day for one week, the mice gained 60 percent less fat, exhibited improved insulin sensitivity, and demonstrated greater endurance and muscle strength, compared to mice that did not receive the supplement.”

“In the absence of ready supplies of glucose and fats from meals, restrictive eating practices induce a cellular "energy crisis." This crisis, in turn, liberates fat stores via fatty acid oxidation and ketone production while prioritizing safeguarding lean muscle mass and function.”

“A meta-analysis found that protein supplementation enhanced gains during resistance training, with no further average fat-free-mass benefit beyond roughly 1.6 grams per kilogram per day.”

“The findings from this small study suggest that consuming anthocyanin-rich blueberries promotes fat oxidation, thereby enhancing athletic performance. Further studies in larger populations are needed to confirm these effects. Read full publication.”
