“Because of alcohol’s effect on other organs and the evidence that any dose of alcohol appears to elevate cancer risk, Dr. Huberman thinks that zero to two drinks per week represents a “safe zone” as long as you’re of age, not pregnant, and not an alcoholic.”

“In the DIABEGG randomized trial, adults with prediabetes or type 2 diabetes assigned up to 12 eggs per week did not show adverse changes in measured cardiometabolic risk factors over 12 months compared with a low-egg group within a structured diet.”

“I am simply saying you would be even more healthy if you also included fiber...if you also included fruits and vegetables.” - Layne Norton, Ph.D. The Carnivore Diet Eating an all meat or all animal product diet—commonly referred to as the carnivore diet—has been hailed by many as the only diet that’s provided a cure for their autoimmune disease or other health issues.”

“Genetic predisposition, altered glucose uptake in the brain, high blood pressure, and other factors can weaken the barrier's integrity, allowing endotoxins and inflammatory immune cells to infiltrate the brain and increasing a person's risk for dementia.”

“In 2,066 community-dwelling adults ages 70 to 79, participants in the highest protein-intake quintile lost approximately 40% less total and appendicular lean mass over three years than those in the lowest quintile. Higher protein intake is also associated with lower frailty risk.”

“- Axel Montagne, Ph.D. While we await potential breakthroughs in targeting elements of the neurovascular unit in the blood-brain barrier directly with stem cell therapeutics, gene therapies, and other cutting-edge techniques, there are things we can do now to better support vascular health and thereby help maintain the integrity of the blood-brain barrier.”

“Animal studies indicate that omega-3 deficiency may also reduce GLUT1 transporters in the brain. Other studies suggest that omega-3 supplementation reduces VCAM1 levels – a protein elevated with normal aging, which could be related to the breakdown of the blood-brain barrier.”

“A meta-analysis led by Dr. Stuart Phillips found that individuals consuming 1.6 grams of protein per kilogram of body weight daily while engaging in resistance training increased their muscle mass by 27% and their strength by 10%, compared to those who trained without extra protein.”

“Whereas fasting turns off multiple pathways associated with aging, such as mTOR, IGF-1, growth hormone, and others, eating for optimal fitness activates these important processes. This Aliquot features Drs. Guido Kroemer, Dominic D'Agostino, Valter Longo, Peter Attia, and Rhonda Patrick.”

“Dr. Montagne's animal research demonstrated that blocking cyclophilin A partially restored vascular function and cognition, suggesting that targeting the blood-brain barrier could be a promising avenue for Alzheimer's treatment.”
