“Continued physical, social, and intellectual engagement offers a practical way to support multiple parts of peakspan throughout later life, while the framework helps people think about function one domain at a time.”

“In a 12-week randomized trial of 291 adults exposed to substantial air pollution, a defined broccoli-sprout beverage increased urinary excretion of glutathione-linked metabolites by 61 percent for benzene and 23 percent for acrolein.”

“Rather, they fall on a spectrum, ranging from a five-to-one ratio of fats to protein and carbs (typically used in clinical settings) to a more liberalized one-to-one ratio, a type of low glycemic index therapy (commonly referred to as "modified Atkins") that might meet the needs of most healthy people.”

“In this clip from Dr. Rhonda Patrick's appearance on Huberman Lab, she explains the evidence behind several supplements in her routine. In the COSMOS trial program, a standard daily multivitamin produced a small average benefit in global cognition and episodic memory among older adults over two to three years.”

“However, a growing body of evidence suggests that pre-pregnancy health of both parents shapes the health of their offspring through epigenetic mechanisms, which are influenced by nutrition, stress, and other environmental factors.”

“Mouse studies of feeding during infection also found different responses across bacterial and viral models, so a minimally processed dietary pattern, regular exercise, and normal hydration and nutrition during illness provide a more useful foundation than one universal food or fasting rule.”

“Choline is particularly important during pregnancy and breastfeeding, but some evidence suggests that choline supplementation could carry some risks. In this Aliquot, I talk about the science surrounding choline.”

“For people seeking better-supported ways to improve inflammatory health, she points to regular exercise, marine omega-3 intake, and sulforaphane-rich foods as practical areas with a larger human evidence base.”

“Sulforaphane activates NRF2-regulated cellular defense pathways. In a randomized crossover trial of 60 adults, eating 85 grams of raw watercress daily for eight weeks reduced basal lymphocyte DNA damage by 17% and oxidative purine DNA damage by 23.9%.”
