“Failures in mitophagy are associated with several chronic diseases, including cardiovascular disease, kidney disease, and Alzheimer's disease. Learn more about mitophagy and autophagy in our overview article. Read full publication.”
Q&A
Dr. Rhonda Patrick answers audience questions on various health, nutrition, and science topics in this Q&A session.
“Advanced glycation end-products, or AGEs for short, are created when the sugars, amino acids, and fats in food encounter heat. AGEs also form in the body during normal glucose metabolism. However, if high levels of AGEs accumulate in the tissues and blood, they can become pathogenic.”
“It's tempting to think of dementia as something in the long-distant future – a condition that only affects older people. But the factors that drive dementia arise much earlier than we might think – as early as our 20s or 30s.”

Dr. Rhonda Patrick answers audience questions on various health, nutrition, and science topics in this Q&A session.
“Healthy brain activity is achieved by maintaining a balance between neural excitation and inhibition. Impairment in this balance is related to many neurological and neurodegenerative disorders, including epilepsy, autism, Parkinson's, Alzheimer's, and schizophrenia.”
“Aging is the primary risk factor for many chronic diseases in humans, including cancer, Alzheimer's disease, and cardiovascular disease. Individuals age at different rates, however, a phenomenon observed across sexes, ethnic groups, and races.”
“People who have certain neurological disorders, such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, or stroke, often exhibit low mood. Evidence suggests that inflammation plays a role in the pathogenesis of these neurological disorders and likely influences mood, as well.”
“It also aligns with results from a compelling case study in which THC microdosing ameliorated symptoms of Alzheimer's disease. Lactate, a molecule produced during vigorous exercise, also has robust effects on the brain, influencing neurogenesis and promoting cognitive function.”
“Air pollution leaves a biological fingerprint on our lungs, our blood vessels, and even our brains, eroding the body's defenses, triggering inflammation, weakening the blood-brain barrier, and accelerating cognitive decline.”
