A year-long randomized trial in older adults found that aerobic exercise increased anterior hippocampal volume by about 2%, while the stretching control group declined.”

“In this clip from Dr. Rhonda Patrick's appearance on Thomas DeLauer's podcast, she explains that ethanol receives metabolic priority in the liver, suppresses fat oxidation, and can promote triglyceride synthesis.”

“Creatine monohydrate supports rapid ATP regeneration during repeated high-intensity effort. In this clip from Dr. Rhonda Patrick's appearance on Huberman Lab, she explains that an optional loading phase of about 20 grams per day for five to seven days can saturate muscle quickly.”

“Cardiorespiratory fitness and heart flexibility can improve through progressive endurance training. In this clip from Dr. Rhonda Patrick's appearance on the Jack Neel Podcast, she describes a randomized trial of healthy, sedentary adults ages 45 to 64.”

“People who have poor cardiorespiratory fitness are more likely to be depressed. Sauna improves cardiorespiratory fitness and may offer a means to ameliorate the symptoms of depression and improve mood. In this clip, Drs. Rhonda Patrick and Jari Laukkanen discuss the benefits of sauna use in terms of cardiorespiratory fitness and mood.”

“In this clip from Dr. Rhonda Patrick's appearance on The Diary of a CEO, she explains how creatine helps regenerate ATP through the phosphocreatine system in muscle and brain tissue. Creatine monohydrate has extensive evidence for increasing high-intensity exercise capacity and supporting training adaptations.”

“What might be a surprise is that the body's response to carbohydrate and other components of the diet is highly personal – influenced by not only a person's metabolic profile, but also their gut microbiome. In this clip, Dr. Rhonda Patrick and Dr. Elissa Epel describe the factors that influence how we respond to diet.”

“Protein intake increases IGF-1 levels in humans, independent of total caloric consumption, and too much IGF-1 can promote the growth of cancer cells. In this clip, Rich Roll and Dr. Rhonda Patrick discuss how IGF-1 levels impact cancer risk.”

“Although the amount of caffeine present in breast milk is typically low – roughly 1 percent of the mother's blood concentrations – caffeine metabolism is poor in infants, putting them at risk for toxicity if the mother consumes large quantities. In this clip, Dr. Rhonda Patrick discusses the risks associated with maternal consumption of caffeine.”

“In this clip from a conversation between Dr. Rhonda Patrick and Thomas DeLauer, she explains how liver fat, visceral fat, and brain insulin signaling relate to metabolic health. These are distinct but connected systems.”
