“Ultimately, we all have to weigh the merits and the trade-offs of portable devices for ourselves and our children individually, but it might mean holding out on the tablet until they're a little older, setting rules around it, and certainly demonstrating our own self-discipline in their use.”

“Digital Health: Tracking Physiomes and Activity Using Wearable Biosensors Reveals Useful Health-Related Information. Glucotypes reveal new patterns of glucose dysregulation. Personal aging markers and ageotypes revealed by deep longitudinal profiling.”

“Dr. Longo has made huge contributions to the field of aging, including the role of fasting and diet in longevity and healthspan in humans as well as metabolic fasting therapies for the treatment of human diseases.”

“The benefits continue to accumulate from there. Research shows there's no upper limit to the longevity gains from improving VO2 max, with each unit increase potentially extending lifespan by about 45 days. What science says about reversing the effects of aging on the heart.”

“Immunosenescence is a deterioration of the immune system that occurs with age. When older mice are subjected to fasting, cells of the immune system such as lymphocytes return to quantities more typical in youth. This animal research may have implications for human aging. In this clip, Dr. Valter Longo describes how fasting promotes the immune system to return to a more youthful profile.”

“00:03:44 Dr. Bruce Ames' triage theory. 00:08:45 Dr. Patrick's clinical research on the role of DNA damage in cancer and aging and her data that suggests obese individuals accumulate more DNA damage than lean individuals.”

“Large treadmill cohorts associate higher measured fitness with lower mortality, while a 46-year study of middle-aged men linked the highest fitness category with about 4.9 additional estimated life-years compared with the lowest category.”

“VO2 max measures the greatest rate at which the body can take in and use oxygen during maximal exercise. In this clip from Dr. Rhonda Patrick's presentation for Biote, she describes cardiorespiratory fitness as a powerful marker of healthy aging.”

“These changes drive processes that improve cellular respiration, reduce inflammation, enhance memory, and provide protection from cancer – critical aspects in slowing the effects of aging and promoting longevity. Part II of this three-part Aliquot features Dr. Dominic D'Agostino, an expert in ketosis; Dr. Eric Verdin, an expert in aging; and Dr. Valter Longo, an expert in gerontology.”
