“This study adds to the larger body of evidence that demonstrates that intestinal bacteria play an important role in metabolism and predict metabolic response to various food types.”

“A separate 18-person experiment found that sodium lactate infusion raised circulating pro-BDNF, supporting lactate as one contributor to the exercise response. Lactate may also support the injured brain's energy metabolism.”

“During the PET scans, the men sat in a cool (66°F, 19°C) room for two hours while wearing lightweight clothes (a T-shirt and shorts) and periodically placing a towel-wrapped block of ice against the soles of their feet.”

“Students that gained weight and fat mass over the course of a year had 15-fold higher levels of erythritol in their blood compared to those that did not gain weight or lost weight. Erythritol is a sugar alcohol and is used as a sugar substitute low-calorie sweetener.”

“Slight elevations in serum creatinine (byproduct of creatine metabolism) seen with supplementation are benign and not indicative of renal impairment. "Creatine causes dehydration and muscle cramping" Contrary to myths, creatine enhances intracellular hydration, reducing rather than increasing the risk of cramps and dehydration, especially during intense exercise in hot conditions.”

“01:12:07 - How people averaging less than six hours of sleep at night are four times more likely to become ill after being exposed to the flu virus. Study. 01:16:27 - How poor sleep overall increases sickness rates, impairs glucose metabolism, and even decreases testosterone levels.”

“Time-restricted eating can help some people reduce eating opportunities, but controlled trials have not found a consistent visceral-fat advantage over matched dietary counseling or calorie restriction.”

“A dose-response meta-analysis of 30 prospective studies, including more than 1.18 million participants, associated each additional daily cup with about a 6 percent lower incidence of type 2 diabetes, with similar patterns for caffeinated and decaf coffee.”

“•Improved immune function, reduced systemic inflammation, and improved metabolic health, as well as intratumoral changes in the form of enhanced blood perfusion, immunogenic profile, and immune cell infiltration.”

“Biological age reflects how well the body is functioning relative to that number—capturing differences in disease risk, physical function, immune health, metabolism, organ function, and mortality risk among people of the same age.”
