“Five grams of creatine per day increased total sleep duration on resistance-training days compared with placebo, while the groups did not differ in overall sleep quality. The result introduces sleep as a promising new area of creatine research.”

“He stops eating at least three hours before bed and often has about four hours between dinner and sleep because his family eats near 6 p.m. His weekly exercise baseline is about four hours of Zone 2, one higher-intensity VO2-max session, and four strength sessions, plus rucking or recreation.”

“Acute stress may create a different context. In a double-blind crossover study of 15 adults undergoing 21 hours of sleep deprivation, a single 0.35-gram-per-kilogram dose changed brain high-energy phosphate measures and improved selected cognitive outcomes.”

“The progressive program built toward four to five aerobic sessions per week, including a weekly Norwegian 4x4 interval workout, rather than asking participants to begin with the final volume.”

“In a randomized study of healthy adults, four four-minute intervals at 90 to 95 percent of peak heart rate performed three times weekly increased VO2 max by 7.2 percent over eight weeks and outperformed work-matched moderate training.”

Dr. Rhonda Patrick discusses organic produce, fasting-mimicking diets, sleep, sauna, sunscreens, red light therapy, reverse osmosis water, and fiber.

“McGlory and Patrick explore the critical need for well-funded, well-designed studies to substantiate these observations and guide clinical practice. In this clip, Dr. Chris McGlory defines the importance of preloading omega-3s and suggests that effects may require higher doses.”

Drs. Levine and Patrick discuss how and why individuals age at different rates and how menopause & obesity may increase an individual's rate of aging.

“Longer high-intensity intervals can raise VO2 max efficiently. In a randomized study of 40 healthy, moderately trained men, eight weeks of four four-minute intervals at 90 to 95 percent of maximum heart rate increased VO2 max by 7.2 percent.”

“Even a 10- to 15-minute walk or brief bodyweight movement after the largest meal can help reduce the immediate glucose excursion; it complements rather than replaces regular exercise or prescribed diabetes care.”
