“Exposure to air pollution promotes oxidative stress and increases the risk of developing many chronic diseases, including cardiovascular disease, cancer, hypertension, and diabetes, markedly shortening people's lives.”

“The study involved more than 76,000 Japanese mother-infant pairs. The women completed questionnaires about their typical dietary intake and supplement use during their pregnancies and then provided information about their child's development at the age of three years.”

“Telomere length in early life can be predictive of lifespan. Higher maternal oxidative stress and inflammation status due to increased obesity might generate a higher inflammatory and oxidative stress causing metabolic alterations that may act as mechanisms in fetal programming influencing telomere biology during development in the uterus.”

“Time-restricted eating exploits the body's innate 24-hour patterns – the genetically encoded molecular clocks present in every cell, from the complex (liver cells) to the simple (hair follicles) – and provides the body an essential downtime where it can focus on DNA and cellular repair and restoration rather than digestion.”

“Key Takeaways on Sleep Timing and Health "​​these results explain part of why one might not feel as good when they go to bed at an odd time, sleep in until noon, or eat a late-night meal—the body just isn't primed (from a chronobiological perspective) to handle this quick shift."”

“DNA methylation – the addition of methyl groups to the nucleotide bases of DNA – is a common epigenetic change. Previous research has shown that DNA methylation influences hypothalamic development in mice at specific time points early in life.”

“She discovered the link between a rare mutation in the PCSK9 gene and extremely low cholesterol levels, which led to the development of PCSK9 inhibitors, potent cholesterol-lowering drugs. Peter Libby, MD – Researches vascular biology, atherosclerosis, and preventive cardiology.”

“Even so, the findings suggest that certain probiotic strains given early in life may help reduce the risk of eczema well beyond the supplementation period. In Aliquot #100, I discuss factors that influence child development before conception, during pregnancy and infancy, and into the toddler and early childhood years.”

“Davidson reported that five minutes of daily Healthy Minds Program practice for 28 days produced a significant decrease in interleukin-6 (IL-6), a pro-inflammatory cytokine, measured three months after the formal intervention ended and compared with an untreated control group.”

“FTA: > An imbalance in our metabolism can trigger inflammatory processes in the body and activate the immune system. In a recent study, researchers have been able to show that this applies even to newborns and children under one year of age, and is correlated with the development of respiratory diseases in early childhood.”
