“The authors of the study first conducted a cross-sectional analysis involving nearly 113,000 people to determine whether there was an association between dairy intake and prevalence of metabolic syndrome.”

“Cells could be programmed to behave and function as they ordinarily would but with profound differences in their underlying code and translation apparatus, making them immune to all viruses and even horizontal gene transfer – a boon to preventing the unintentional spread of lab-produced genetics to wild-type organisms.”

“Some scientists have suggested that consuming high-glycemic carbohydrates increases insulin levels, ultimately driving a vicious cycle of body fat accumulation, hunger, and food intake, commonly referred to as the "carbohydrate-insulin" model of obesity.”

“If you have used a consumer genetic testing service like 23andMe or AncestryDNA and want to learn more about whether or not the data indicates your specific genotype on these SNPs, check out our free viral report here.”

“The study was part of a previous randomized placebo-controlled trial involving healthy white European and South Asian females who received 15 micrograms (600 IU) of vitamin D2 or D3 every day for 12 weeks during the winter months, when sun exposure was limited.”

“An authoritative parenting style, characterized by warmth and support combined with clear rules and expectations, showed the clearest protective pattern overall: adolescents in higher-risk families were 76% less likely to use multiple substances.”

“Exposure to environmental toxins – in the food we eat, the water we drink, and the air we breathe – is largely unavoidable. But monitoring our exposures and implementing diet and lifestyle strategies can help mitigate the risks associated with toxic exposures. In this Aliquot, Dr. Dale Bredesen, Dr. Michael Snyder, and I discuss ways to deal with our increasingly toxic environment.”

“Choline is particularly important during pregnancy and breastfeeding, but some evidence suggests that choline supplementation could carry some risks. In this Aliquot, I talk about the science surrounding choline.”

“However, a "controversial" study published in 2021 by Kevin Hall and colleagues found the opposite—after 2 weeks, participants consuming a plant-based, low-fat, high-carb diet consumed nearly 700 calories less per day than those consuming an animal-based, high-fat, ketogenic diet.”

“2003 According to Luc van Loon, 0.8 g/kg/day represents the minimum protein requirement to stay in nitrogen balance for a diet that is provided for 1–2 weeks, but this is not the protein requirement for optimal health, nor does it account for individual variations in protein needs due to age, physical activity levels, and health status.”
