“Topics include hair regrowth in androgenic alopecia, pain reduction in rheumatoid arthritis with notable results but occasional study design concerns and conflicts of interest, muscle endurance, post-exercise muscle recovery, wound healing, and skin wrinkling.”

“Sodium keeps our hearts beating, our muscles moving, and our nerves firing—but it's also one of the most debated nutrients in health. While sodium is essential for survival, too much or too little can tip the scales toward problems like high blood pressure or fatigue.”

“Exercise is a huge driver of how well we age because it induces profound molecular shifts that support immune health and might even protect our telomeres – indicators of aging. Exercise might help forestall certain age-related diseases, such as Parkinson's disease, too.”

“Eating late at night when insulin levels are naturally low can have negative effects on human health. Time-restricted eating, however, limits the daytime window during which a person eats to take advantage of the time when metabolism is optimized, improving health and even promoting weight loss.”

“At the same time, mitochondrial biogenesis increases, and reactive oxygen species and inflammatory cytokines decrease. In this clip, Dr. Dominic D'Agostino discusses how the body adapts to a ketogenic diet and the possible impacts on age-related chronic diseases.”

“A systematic review and meta-analysis of 44 randomized trials found that berberine improved several surrogate measures, including inflammatory biomarkers, stroke-related neurological deficit scores, and carotid intima-media thickness.”

“In 15 people with severe traumatic brain injury, sodium lactate infusion increased brain lactate, pyruvate, and glucose without raising intracranial pressure, and a randomized study in 60 patients with mild traumatic brain injury reported better cognitive recovery than hypertonic saline.”
