“In this clip from Dr. Rhonda Patrick's appearance on Huberman Lab, she explains that body weight alone can miss changes in fat distribution. Waist circumference provides a practical central-adiposity screen, while CT and MRI are reference measurement methods.”

“Having sufficient muscle mass markedly reduces a person's risk of dying prematurely. Although some studies suggest that eating less protein promotes longevity, those studies might not take into account the periods of disuse and disability that often occur in real life.”

“Red yeast rice lowers LDL through monacolin K, which is chemically identical to lovastatin, so it shares statin-related mechanisms and requires attention to potency, contamination, medicine interactions, and muscle or liver effects.”

“Some research suggests that dietary supplements might offer a means to lengthen telomeres. Candidates include vitamin D, omega-3 fatty acids, and TA-65, a product that purportedly contains extracts of astragalus membranaceus, a plant-based compound that demonstrates anti-aging effects.”

“There is so much to say when we talk about the NRF2 pathway and isothiocyanates like sulforaphane that we had to pack it into 47 minutes and break it into a few key sections. Key sections: For a more in-depth breakdown click the timeline link at the top of this page!”

“Recent data from animal studies indicate that time-restricted feeding – even in overweight animals eating a poor diet – has beneficial effects on metabolic health. Studies investigating whether the same benefits will be observed in a real-world setting in humans are lacking, however.”
