“In STEP 1, once-weekly semaglutide plus lifestyle support produced an average weight reduction of 14.9% over 68 weeks, compared with 2.4% with placebo, establishing strong efficacy for selected adults with overweight or obesity.”

“In fact, Dr. George Church and his team of researchers have been able to use gene editing to make cells in the laboratory resistant to infection from all viruses. Could cell therapies confer this total viral resistance in humans in the future?”

“Randomized trials and a meta-analysis show that at least three grams of oat beta-glucan per day can lower LDL by about five to seven percent, with high-molecular-weight products producing the most consistent effects.”

“A recent meta-analysis also found small benefits in selected cognitive domains, including memory and processing speed, with responses that may depend on age, diet, baseline stores, stress, dose, and the cognitive test used.”

“I am simply choosing not to blend them into my blueberry smoothie when the goal is to maximize polyphenol exposure.".(https://www.foundmyfitness.com/episodes/blueberry-solocast)'] A 2023 banana-smoothie study caught Rhonda's attention because the effect was unusually large and the mechanism made biological sense.”

“Statins reduce the risk of cardiovascular events by decreasing the production of cholesterol in the liver and increasing the receptors that remove LDL particles from the blood. However the more harmful small, dense LDL is not removed as well as the benign larger LDL.”

“In a double-blind randomized trial of 191 adults with borderline-high cholesterol, 3 grams per day of high-molecular-weight oat beta-glucan—taken as 1 gram three times daily for four weeks—reduced LDL cholesterol by about 6% and estimated 10-year Framingham cardiovascular disease risk by about 8% compared with a rice-powder control.”

“Interestingly, in a biological feedback response that occurs after dynorphin binds to the kappa-opioid receptor, the brain produces more mu-opioid receptors, sensitizing them to endorphin and future endorphin exposure, a process known as the Salvinorin A pathway.”

“In this Aliquot, cardiologist Ben Levine, nutritional scientist and champion powerlifter Layne Norton, and I discuss the importance of recovery, how best to approach it, and some surprising, often overlooked aspects of this important part of fitness.”

“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.”
