“Muscles require growth hormones to maintain their mass; however, in sarcopenia, inflammation reduces muscle tissue's ability to grow in response to insulin. Long-chain omega-3 fatty acids, such as eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), have powerful anti-inflammatory effects.”

“The mice that received sulforaphane also exhibited less lung inflammation, one of the hallmarks of COVID-19 and a driver of poor disease outcomes. These findings demonstrate that sulforaphane may be beneficial for preventing or treating COVID-19 while modulating inflammation that typically accompanies the illness.”

“For example, binding to TNF receptor 1 promotes apoptosis (programmed cell death) and inflammation; binding to TNF receptor 2 promotes cell survival, resolution of inflammation, immunity, and cellular repair.”

“Increased neurogenesis – Butyrate enhances neurogenesis directly. Improved glucose tolerance – The microbiota of people with type two diabetes shifts away from butyrate-producing species. Reduced inflammation – Butyrate promotes regulatory T cell maturation.”

“The participants took 2 billion Bifidobacterium bacteria per day, which is a pretty small quantity of probiotics. It is likely that the probiotics are working through multiple mechanisms such as lowering inflammation and increasing neurotransmitters.”

“The inflammation marker hs-CRP was 68 percent lower. HDL cholesterol was 0.16 mmol per liter higher. These health differences were accompanied by lasting shifts in the gut microbiome.”

“Visceral fat promotes chronic low-grade inflammation and releases immune signals that can alter brain circuits involved in mood regulation. By contrast, fitness and muscle mass may promote resilience by supporting healthier stress responses.”

“The study found very surprising results. Consuming either bread type improved cholesterol levels and improved markers of inflammation. The glycemic response was also dependent on the person's gut microbiome composition and not bread type.”

“Additionally, the effects of the highly purified EPA might be independent of lipid-lowering effects. EPA also decreases inflammation, has effects on blood thinning and cell membrane fluidity...any of these might affect sudden cardiac death.”

“Aliquot #103: The Future of Aging Therapeutics, Part 2 - examines stem-cell transplantation, young-blood factors, plasma exchange, gene therapy, and other possible strategies for reversing age-related dysfunction. Aliquot #145: How to Protect Immune Function With Age - reviews immunosenescence, chronic inflammation, cancer surveillance, and lifestyle support for immune resilience.”
