“When oral tryptophan was the source, the liver produced NAD+ for local use and broke down into nicotinamide, as described above. Nicotinamide traveled to other tissues, such as the muscles, brain, and gut, which used salvage pathways to convert it back to NAD+.”

“Rhonda discusses how cold exposure increases norepinephrine up to 5-fold in the brain and what the temperature and duration needed to do this are, how norepinephrine has an effect on mood, vigilance, focus, and attention, how cold exposure increases cold shock proteins including one in the brain that repairs damaged synapses and in muscle prevents atrophy…”

“These NK cells are recruited to the site of the tumor by the protein IL-6, secreted by active muscles. The NK cells can then infiltrate the tumor, slowing or completely preventing its growth.”

“Anyone that follows me knows that I talk about saunas ALOT. I have a couple of videos where I discuss the effects of the sauna on longevity and in muscle mass and endurance. I discuss the role of heat shock proteins in both videos.”

“These findings suggest that resistance training does more than build muscle—it also improves sleep. Resistance training builds bone, too, a critical component of aging well. Learn more in this clip featuring Dr. Brad Schoenfeld.”

“Both groups participated in a supervised, six-week exercise program that included both aerobic and resistance exercises, performed three times per week. The investigators assessed the women's body composition and metabolic markers and collected muscle tissue samples for biopsy.”

“02:46:00 - Statins can cause muscle atrophy. Study. 02:47:00 - How sugar companies paid researchers for decades to falsify research about saturated fats in order to promote sugar consumption.”

“Loss of insulin sensitivity in muscle increases blood sugar levels, contributing to type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease development. The endothelial cells that line blood vessels are also sensitive to the ROS produced by excessive TLR4 activation.”
