“- Dr. Mark Mattson https://www.foundmyfitness.com/episodes/mark-mattson/'] Whether we induce energetic crises through fasting, exercising, or tapping into a subset of the body's metabolic program through a specialized diet, some of the more compelling entities that define the ensuing metabolic switch are ketone bodies.”

Dr. Rhonda Patrick answers audience questions on various health, nutrition, and science topics in this Q&A session.

“Adequate, quality sleep is essential for the body's recovery and repair, promoting optimal physical and mental health. Getting a good night's sleep can be challenging, especially in our modern world, but we can take steps to overcome those challenges. In this Aliquot, we present a mashup of our best resources on sleep, featuring insights from Dr. Matthew Walker, Dr. Satchin Panda, and me.”

“For instance, while the U.S. has high obesity rates, its rates of type 2 diabetes remain modest compared to countries like Singapore, India, and many Middle Eastern nations—populations that, on average, tend to have "fatter fat cells" and therefore develop metabolic complications at lower body mass indices (BMIs).”

“No, the muscles don’t have a “memory” as the brain does, but particular adaptations that occur during exercise training might last for years or even decades after someone stops training. Muscle memory can be influenced by: Genetics. Neuromuscular adaptations.”

Dr. Rhonda Patrick discusses stroke risk, eczema, immune resilience, her new smoothie recipe, and whether everyone should cut out gluten.

“- Peter Attia, M.D. People mentioned in this episode Helen Hobbs, MD – Researches how genetic differences cause lipid metabolism disorders. She discovered the link between a rare mutation in the PCSK9 gene and extremely low cholesterol levels, which led to the development of PCSK9 inhibitors, potent cholesterol-lowering drugs.”

“- Arthur Brooks, Ph.D. The episode closes with a framework from Brooks's work on the second half of life: jump, serve, worship, and connect, a framework he outlines in one of his earlier books, From Strength to Strength: "Jump" means proactively building the next thing, especially during liminal periods or unwelcome change, which Brooks sees as fertile ground for creativity.”

“Another pilot clinical study finds sulforaphane (abundant in broccoli sprouts and other cruciferous vegetables) increased blood glutathione levels and this correlated with increased glutathione in certain brain regions in healthy people. Sulforaphane is one of the strongest inducers of the Nrf2 genetic pathway which activates genes involved in glutathione production.”
