Dr. Rhonda Patrick explores iodine supplementation, choline & TMAO, curcumin safety, and red yeast rice in her latest Q&A.
“Some research suggests that microplastic exposure can change the structure of beta-lactoglobulin, a protein in breast milk that helps transport nutrients like vitamin A, making it less effective.”

“He further explains that this individualized preventive medicine is critical because of the wide variety of genetic make-ups in our society. Your genetic make-up affects the metabolism of nutrients and certain people may need to consume more to compensate for their genetics.”
Clip
“Family-controlled research provides another view. A Swedish cohort of 2.48 million children found small associations in conventional models, but the estimates moved to the null when siblings with different prenatal exposure were compared.”

“In this clip from Dr. Rhonda Patrick's appearance on Huberman Lab, she explains the evidence behind several supplements in her routine. In the COSMOS trial program, a standard daily multivitamin produced a small average benefit in global cognition and episodic memory among older adults over two to three years.”
Clip
“Similarly, the timing of eating and exercise, especially in elite athletes, has not been studied and may, in fact, require self-experimentation by the athletes as they find the perfect interval of fasting to support their optimal performance.”
Clip
“Prospective human cohorts have reported associations between prenatal BPA measurements and later child behavior, sometimes with sex-specific patterns, but results are inconsistent and residual confounding remains possible.”
Clip
“A standard multivitamin can help fill micronutrient gaps when diet does not consistently provide enough vitamins and minerals. In this clip from Dr. Steve Horvath's FoundMyFitness interview with Dr. Rhonda Patrick, they discuss three cognitive substudies within the COSMOS trial program.”
“But sometimes, the compounds can work against each other, limiting their absorption and diminishing their healthful effects. In this Aliquot, I address concerns about possible conflicts between matrix components in bananas and dairy products that might diminish the healthful effects of polyphenols.”

“Sulforaphane activates NRF2-regulated cellular defense pathways. In a randomized crossover trial of 60 adults, eating 85 grams of raw watercress daily for eight weeks reduced basal lymphocyte DNA damage by 17% and oxidative purine DNA damage by 23.9%.”
