“Consuming more than seven drinks per week reduces semen quality and volume, sperm antioxidant capacity, and levels of testosterone, FSH, and LH. Alcohol doesn't appear to impact sperm density, motility, morphology, or DNA fragmentation.”

“Also available on: iTunes, and Stitcher.”

“Metformin's mechanisms and targets The mechanisms by which metformin exerts its effects are not fully understood. However, evidence suggests that cellular energy and antioxidant response pathways may be responsible for the drug's actions.”

“Sulforaphane, an isothiocyanate compound derived from broccoli sprouts and certain cruciferous vegetables, exerts a wide range of beneficial effects in humans. Some of these effects are mediated by increased glutathione, one of the body's most potent antioxidants, to promote brain health.”

“Evidence suggests these potent antioxidants protect brain health, particularly in people at higher risk of dementia. A recent study found that anthocyanins improved cognitive function in people with high inflammation levels, but not those with lower inflammation.”

“One well-known catechin, epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), is a potent scavenger of reactive oxygen species and has demonstrated antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anticarcinogenic properties in both clinical and in vitro studies.”

“A recent study found that older adults with diets rich in omega-3 fatty acids, antioxidants, and vitamins demonstrate slower brain aging and better performance on cognitive tests. Researchers administered cognitive tests and brain imaging scans to 100 healthy older adults.”

“Hyperthermia, a state of elevated core body temperature, stresses the body, activating molecular mechanisms that mitigate protein damage and aggregation and promote endogenous antioxidant, repair, and degradation processes.”

“The brain scans revealed that iron levels increased markedly over time, and higher iron accumulation correlated with poorer cognitive function. However, a higher intake of antioxidants, vitamins, iron-chelating nutrients, and polyunsaturated fatty acids mitigated iron accumulation.”

“Does this mean eat as much protein as possible? No. One needs to make room in their diet for healthy fats and fiber- and antioxidant-rich fruits and vegetables, after all. One thing not covered in my talk with Peter was the debate about animal versus plant protein.”
