“People with more severe insomnia may also be more likely to seek treatment and have melatonin documented, which can connect the exposure marker with the underlying sleep disorder and its comorbidities.”

“These findings suggest that moderate coffee or caffeine intake reduces the risk of developing cardiometabolic diseases but also slows their progression if they occur. Other evidence points to the many health benefits associated with coffee and caffeine, but it's crucial to remember their effects on sleep.”

“They also highlight how metabolic health in midlife can influence cognitive aging, especially for those with obesity. Poor sleep can suppress the effects of leptin, ultimately impairing metabolic function. Learn more in this clip featuring Dr. Matt Walker.”

“Medicines, kidney function, anticoagulant use, sleep response, and total supplement burden can also change the safest plan. The most evidence-aligned strategy is to prioritize consistent use, take fat-soluble products with food when appropriate, and adjust timing for tolerability and individual clinical needs.”

“FTA: > Men who are physically active are at lower risk of nocturia (waking up at night to urinate), according to a study. Nocturia is the most common and bothersome lower urinary tract symptom in men. Causes include overproduction of urine, low bladder capacity and sleep disturbances. Nocturia increases with age, and is estimated to occur in more than 50 percent of men 45 and older.”

“FTA: > Poor oral health and hygiene are increasingly recognized as major risk factors for pneumonia among the elderly. To identify modifiable oral health-related risk factors, researchers investigated associations between a constellation of oral health behaviors and incidences of pneumonia in the community-living of elders.”

“Dr. Patrick combines that finding with an earlier final meal, regular resistance training, and short post-meal activity to make time-restricted eating support muscle, glucose control, and sleep. This clip is excerpted, with permission, from Dr. Rhonda Patrick's appearance on Modern Wisdom.”

“High energy demand is a promising research setting. In a randomized crossover study of 15 healthy adults undergoing 21 hours of sleep deprivation, a single 0.35-gram-per-kilogram dose changed cerebral energy measures and improved selected cognitive outcomes.”

“Pre-sleep casein can increase overnight synthesis in studied training settings. A review of higher-protein diets in adults without chronic kidney disease did not support the common claim that athletic-range protein intake damages healthy kidneys.”
