“While this system might have served an important function evolutionarily, today it contributes to the chronic inflammation associated with heart disease. In this clip, Dr. Ronald Krauss discusses the role of inflammation in lipoprotein metabolism.”

“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.”

“Additionally, we also discuss the important role magnesium plays in preventing random mutations. "Men with the highest quartile of magnesium levels have a 40% decrease in all-cause mortality and a 50% decrease in deaths from cancer.".”

“Dr. Bill Harris shares his nuanced insights into whether omega-3 supplementation carries a bleeding risk. Dr. Harris bases his understandings on observations from clinical trials using extreme dosages, additional research that directly contradicts omega-3 intake as a generalized concern for bleeding risk during surgery, as well as comments from the FDA.”

“In this clip, Drs. Levine and Patrick discuss definitions of aging used in science and why biological aging matters to scientists. Dr. Levine shares the hallmarks of aging that help researchers determine someone's biological age, what drives accelerated aging, and what epigenetic modifications such as CpG methylation say about the aging process.”

“00:35:35 - More on using a *biogenerator, this time in the context of pediatric liver transplant: "It's not necessarily that you have to replace those cells, but maybe the cells that you have can help to generate an environment that [will enable that liver] to grow better.”

“Bacteriophage therapy, possibly using a cocktail of phages, could precisely perturb the microbiome, eliminating pathogenic species while leaving commensal species unscathed and circumventing antibiotic resistance.”

“Long-term population research has identified age-independent declines in testosterone in some male cohorts, supporting the view that changes in men's hormonal health can involve more than aging alone. BPA and phthalates can interact with hormone-related biological pathways.”

“This episode of the Aliquot features FoundMyFitness guests with expertise in fields including lipid metabolism, Alzheimer's disease, and micronutrient biochemistry sharing their recommendations regarding blood tests that a person should consider adding to their yearly checkup.”

“And one potential strategy for mitigating our risk for Alzheimer's disease as we age is a "cognoscopy" – a battery of assessments that measures some of the key biomarkers associated with the disease and can inform the trajectory of treatment.”
