“Magnesium intake and incidence of pancreatic cancer: the VITamins and Lifestyle study - Every 100 mg per day decrease in magnesium intake was linked to a 24% increase in pancreatic cancer incidence.”

“Robust scientific evidence indicates that consuming a plant-rich diet that provides vitamins, minerals, fiber, and phytochemicals is healthier than consuming an all-meat diet. In this clip, Dr. Jed Fahey rebuts popular claims that an all-meat diet is healthful.”

“These days he tries not to overcomplicate his diet, choosing to eat whole plant-based foods as close to their natural state as possible. He measures blood biomarkers and takes supplements as needed, particularly for vitamin B12.”

“In this clip, Bruce provides both an evolutionary and a molecular rationale for his theory. His research team has shown this triaging in vitamin K2 and selenium and postulates it is probably true for many other micronutrients.”

“Deficiency of these two carotenoids leads to macular degeneration. He shares that he is currently writing a paper arguing that lutein and zeaxanthin should be considered vitamins because they are critical for long-term health of the eye.”

“Deficiency is another reason to investigate unusually early graying. A case-control study found lower vitamin B12, folate, and biotin levels in people with premature graying, and rare case reports describe repigmentation after treating severe B12 deficiency.”

“Dr. Krauss discusses that 11-12% of statin users are at risk of developing diabetes as a side effect of statins. In women this could be as high as 30%. Because of this he warns against the growing trend of viewing statins as harmless as a supplemental vitamin.”

“Nitrites, used as preservatives in processed meats, can form cancer-causing nitrosamines when cooked or during digestion in the human colon. Nitrates, similar compounds found in plants, can also form nitrosamines but tend to form nitric oxide instead, due to the presence of vitamin C in the plants.”

“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 immunomodulatory, anti-oxidative stress, and anti-aging effects, the latter of which are associated with longer telomeres.”

“The treatment used two bioactive compounds: nicotinamide, a vitamin B3 derivative, and epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), a green tea compound. The experiments revealed clear age-related declines as well as improvements after treatment: Aging neurons had lower GTP levels, including less free GTP near mitochondria.”
