Dr. Rhonda Patrick answers audience questions on various health, nutrition, and science topics in this Q&A session.

“During involution, extensive cell death and tissue remodeling occur in the breasts as they return to the pre-pregnancy state. Various immune and inflammatory processes related to breast involution are considered tumorigenic.”

“Ultimately, these enzymes modulate the extent of vitamin D-dependent gene expression in the body and subsequent management of calcium homeostasis and cell differentiation. Four of the hydroxylases catalyze the conversion of D3 to 25(OH)D3 in the liver, the primary of which is hepatic 25-hydroxylase (CYP2R1).”

Dr. Rhonda Patrick discusses supplement timing, exercise timing, supplements in older adults, folic acid vs. folate, and hydrogen-rich water.

“Dr. Rhonda Patrick speaks with Ray Cronise, a former NASA material scientist and co-founder of zero gravity, a company that offers weightless parabolic flights to consumers and researchers.”

“High glucose also promotes aging through another pathway. When cells are overwhelmed with glucose, they can't break it down effectively. Excess glucose is diverted to the sorbitol pathway, increasing cellular swelling that eventually causes a cell to burst.”

“Study. 00:46:59 - Carnivore diet deficiency: Vitamin C 00:48:25 - Vitamin C and glucose use different transporters to enter cells. Study 00:49:54 - RDA for vitamin C based on depletion-repletion studies.”

“- Arthur Brooks, Ph.D. The episode closes with a framework from Brooks's work on the second half of life: jump, serve, worship, and connect, a framework he outlines in one of his earlier books, From Strength to Strength: "Jump" means proactively building the next thing, especially during liminal periods or unwelcome change, which Brooks sees as fertile ground for creativity.”

“The compound also triggered increased oxidative stress and affected critical genes involved in cell cycle progression and oxidative metabolism. These findings suggest that BBP exposure profoundly affects reproductive health by impairing the cellular processes necessary for healthy chromosome segregation and genomic stability.”

“Red blood cell distribution width (RDW) is a numerical measure of the variability in the size of circulating red blood cells. It is typically included in a complete blood count in the differential diagnosis of anemia. A high RDW may indicate a nutrient deficiency or disease.”
