“Consequently, researchers have had to formulate several versions of the fasting-mimicking diet to overcome these aversions. In this clip, Dr. Valter Longo explains why clinical trials of the fasting-mimicking diet in combination with standard cancer treatments have been slow to progress.”

“The effect of social isolation in mice on cancer metastasis, and conversely how wound healing can be affected in mice just by changes in their environment. What affects the stress hormone cortisol has on gene expression.”

“Preclinical research suggests that this can be accomplished by feeding animals an IGF-1 promoting diet, in conjunction with antibodies against the IGF-1 receptor which are unable to cross the blood-brain barrier. In this clip, Dr. Peter Attia addresses the challenges of balancing IGF-1 levels in the brain and body to promote neurogenesis without stimulating cancer.”

“Dr. Candow and Dr. Patrick also review common questions about blood pressure, sleep, cancer, and urination. At recommended doses, creatine is not a diuretic, and drinking it in extra fluid can explain more frequent urination.”

“Sulforaphane switches on mechanisms that protect against cancer and other environmental insults. Sulforaphane is produced when the plants' cells are damaged by chewin or chopping and some culinary "hacks" favor its production.”

“In a microfluidic model, exercise-relevant high shear stress reduced the viability of several cancer cell lines and damaged highly metastatic breast-cancer cells more than lower, resting-level shear.”

“Chronic inflammation plays a key role in the development of many chronic diseases, including cancer, cardiovascular disease, and diabetes. When it comes to managing inflammation, we often focus on what lifestyle habits we might need to get rid of, but it's just as important to focus on things we can add to our lifestyles.”

“In this clip, Dr. Bill Harris discusses the impact omega-3 levels have on the risk of death from cardiovascular disease, cancer, and he compares these risks in smokers compared to non-smokers and much more.”

“Dr. Unutmaz frames these converging advances as a reason to protect health now, so that people are better positioned to benefit from future progress in cancer treatment, regenerative medicine, and healthy aging.”

“Exercise increases blood flow and exerts tremendous mechanical forces on circulating tumor cells, sensitizing them to apoptosis, a cellular self-destruct mechanism. The findings from this small study suggest that exercise reduces the number of circulating tumor cells in cancer survivors.”
