“Claims that NMN cannot enter any cell, that oral NAD cannot have any effect, or that intravenous delivery is clinically superior remain too categorical for current evidence. Product identity, dose, medical conditions, and the difference between raising a blood biomarker and improving health outcomes all matter.”

“In a randomized trial of 240 older adults with mild cognitive impairment, 2 grams of DHA daily for 24 months improved selected cognitive measures compared with corn-oil placebo. Researchers also observed changes in blood markers related to amyloid and autophagy, the cellular process that helps clear damaged material.”

“Short bouts may support blood pressure and vascular health Structured exercise lowers blood pressure, but device-based research suggests that small amounts of exercise-like daily activity may matter too.”

“Many factors influence the risk for cardiovascular disease, including behavioral factors, such as diet, physical activity, and smoking status. Health parameters, including cholesterol, blood pressure, glucose control, weight, genetics, and age, also help stratify risk.”

“Higher levels of an oxidation biomarker and certain sugar-modified compounds called advanced glycation end products were found in the plasma from children with autism spectrum disorder. The biomarkers may also shed some light on some contributing factors for autism including oxidative stress.”

00:15:48 - The key to Dr. Bredesen’s risk reduction strategy: embracing what he terms as a “cognoscopy,” the suite of tests, including blood tests and more, that he believes should be checked and monitored by everyone aged 45+ (in much the same way we screen for colon cancer with regular colonoscopies in older adults).

“FTA: > Researchers in the US have developed a new Alzheimer’s blood test that could pick up on the very early stages of Alzheimer’s disease with 100 percent accuracy when tested on 174 individuals.”

“FTA: > High levels of calcium in blood, a condition known as hypercalcaemia, can be used by GPs as an early indication of certain types of cancer, according to a study by researchers from the universities of Bristol and Exeter.”
