“In this clip, Dr. Satchin Panda explains the physiological response to food and why eating less often while practicing time-restricted eating might have even greater health benefits.”

“The ease of implementing and following a ketogenic diet varies from person to person, depending on several factors, including fitness level, disease state, and lifestyle. The gold standard to determine whether someone has achieved a state of nutritional ketosis is to measure blood ketone levels.”

“A growing body of scientific evidence suggests that there's a correlation between nutrition, exercise, sleep, and stress management and having longer telomeres. Identifying the mechanisms that drive these correlations has proven challenging, but a few candidates stand out, including improvements in immune function and metabolic health.”

Dr. Rhonda Patrick explores blood tests to track health, statin alternatives, mitochondrial supplements, and vitamin B12 and autism risk in her latest Q&A.

“The body perceives these interventions as stressors and then adapts, ultimately developing metabolic flexibility. Dr. D'Agostino proposes that metabolic interventions, such as restricting calories and entering ketosis, for example, may provide additional benefits when practiced cyclically.”

Dr. Rhonda Patrick explores collagen peptides, high-dose niacin and vitamin B6, avoiding nano- and microplastics in her latest Q&A.

“Around meals, intensity and timing may matter. A small randomized crossover study in nine people with insulin resistance found that six one-minute intense walking intervals before each main meal improved 24-hour glucose control more than one continuous 30-minute bout.”

“Whereas the common form of Alzheimer's disease is characterized by memory loss and the inability to form new memories, one subtype of the disease is characterized by profound deficits in organizational skills, math capabilities, and visual perception.”

“Some research suggests that dietary supplements might offer a means to lengthen telomeres. Candidates include vitamin D, omega-3 fatty acids, and TA-65, a product that purportedly contains extracts of astragalus membranaceus, a plant-based compound that demonstrates anti-aging effects.”

“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.”
