“Circulating LPS can also bind to lipoproteins, facilitating their absorption in the liver during LDL recycling, effectively removing LPS from circulation and lowering systemic inflammation – a phenomenon demonstrated mechanistically with statins that increase lipoprotein recycling by increasing LDL receptors.”

“When mice consume a diet that is high in fat and sugar, they tend to develop metabolic diseases, such as obesity, diabetes, and cardiovascular disease, much like humans who eat a similar diet.”

“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. High AGE levels are common features of many chronic diseases.”

“One theory is that this eating pattern coordinates food intake with the body's peak metabolism period. Time-restricted eating can promote better sleep, and sufficient sleep itself can improve some biomarkers, creating a virtuous cycle.”

“In more than 25,000 adults who reported no leisure-time exercise, a median of three one- or two-minute bouts per day was associated with 38 to 40 percent lower all-cause and cancer mortality and 48 to 49 percent lower cardiovascular mortality compared with no VILPA.”

“In a ten-week randomized trial of 16 men with overweight or obesity, high-intensity training produced greater improvements than continuous aerobic training in peak VO2, glucose-tolerance-derived insulin-sensitivity measures, and muscle mitochondrial content.”

The menopause transition, its hormonal effects on bone health and metabolism, and strategies for healthy aging.

“Time-restricted eating, which involves taking in food within a small window of time during the day and fasting for the remainder, can improve certain biomarkers of health – even without weight loss – to improve overall health. In Part I of this two-part segment, Drs.”
