“Compared with no resistance training, 90–119 minutes per week was associated with a 13% lower rate of death from any cause, a 19% lower rate of cardiovascular death, and a 27% lower rate of neurological disease death after accounting for aerobic activity and other health and lifestyle factors.”
“Just one month after their heart attack, participants assigned to 16:8 time-restricted eating experienced a 6.6% increase in a measure of their heart’s pumping efficiency known as left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) compared to a mere 1.5% increase in the regular diet group.”
“In a study involving diet-induced diabetic mice, injection of 500 milligrams per kilogram of body weight (mg/kg/bw) of nicotinamide mononucleotide administered for seven days enhanced insulin sensitivity and improved glucose intolerance compared to that observed among mice not given nicotinamide mononucleotide.”
“A meta-analysis led by Dr. Stuart Phillips found that individuals consuming 1.6 grams of protein per kilogram of body weight daily while engaging in resistance training increased their muscle mass by 27% and their strength by 10%, compared to those who trained without extra protein.”
“Another study in which 22 year old men who engaged in four weeks of high-intensity interval training three days a week and supplemented with 150 milligrams of resveratrol per day, the lowest dose of the studies mentioned so far, did not promote increases in the men's aerobic or anaerobic capacity, exercise substrate utilization, or muscle fiber-specific adaptations compared to exercise alone.”
“Interestingly, repeated exposure to whole-body heat treatment through sauna use has an even more profound effect on boosting growth hormone immediately afterward: Seventeen men and women who were exposed to two one-hour sauna sessions at 80°C (176°F) dry heat (typical Finnish-style sauna) per day for seven days exhibited a 16-fold increase in growth hormone levels by the third day.”
“Just one month after their heart attack, participants assigned to 16:8 time-restricted eating experienced a 6.6% increase in a measure of their heart’s pumping efficiency known as left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) compared to a mere 1.5% increase in the regular diet group.”
Toll-like receptors are a family of pattern recognition receptors expressed on the surface of immune and other cells that play an important role in intestinal permeability and inflammaging.
Intravenous Vitamin C for the treatment of sepsis Sepsis, a life-threatening condition that can arise due to the body's response to a bacterial or viral infection, can cause severe injury to multiple tissues or organs.(Source: CDC) (https://www.cdc.gov/sepsis/index.html) People diagnosed with sepsis typically have low vitamin C levels, which might be predictive of increased risk for organ failure.
Zinc is an essential nutrient that influences growth and development and plays critical roles in immune function, protein synthesis, wound healing, DNA synthesis, and cell division.
