“In this FoundMyFitness Premium Q&A preview, Dr. Rhonda Patrick reviews common contributors to fragmented sleep, including insomnia, sleep apnea, nocturia, psychological stress, irregular schedules, caffeine, alcohol, light, noise, temperature, and late eating.”

“Family-controlled research provides another view. A Swedish cohort of 2.48 million children found small associations in conventional models, but the estimates moved to the null when siblings with different prenatal exposure were compared.”

“In later randomized trials, urolithin A improved some laboratory measures of muscle endurance or hamstring strength, but it did not significantly improve key primary outcomes such as six-minute walk distance, muscle ATP production, or peak power.”

“There's a lot of exciting research right now into aging and maximum lifespan, but scientists have really just scratched the surface of the fascinating topic of how to live longer, healthier lives. Relevant Publications Rootzén, Holger, and Dmitrii Zholud.”

“Dr. Rhonda Patrick discusses how conditioning the body to heat stress through sauna use, called "hyperthermic conditioning" may cause adaptations that increase athletic endurance (by increasing plasma volume and blood flow to heart and muscles) and potentially even muscle mass. She also discusses the profound effects of hyperthermic conditioning on the brain including cognitive function.”

“Circulating LPS can also bind to lipoproteins, facilitating their absorption in the liver during LDL recycling, effectively removing LPS from circulation and lowering systemic inflammation – a phenomenon demonstrated mechanistically with statins that increase lipoprotein recycling by increasing LDL receptors.”

Many of the anabolic effects of growth hormone are thought to be mediated by insulin-like growth factor-1, or IGF-1 (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/18500379), which is synthesized primarily in the liver but also in skeletal muscle in response to growth hormone.

“1 02:37:05 - Mothers that chew xylitol gum starting mid-pregnancy and continuing until 6-12 months after birth lowered the oral streptococcus mutan bacteria, which is an anaerobic bacteria that plays a significant role in tooth decay, in their toddlers/children.”

“The mast cells release pro­inflammatory cytokines and proteases that damage the gut, leading to intestinal permeability, a condition otherwise known as “leaky gut.” This leakiness allows bacteria and bacterial antigens to cross the gut’s inner layer, the epithelium, and activate even more immune cells, leading to more inflammation – a key driver in the aging process.”

“In this brief episode, we learn how restoring our dietary and sleep pattern to one that more closely syncs with those imposed by nature, especially by avoiding eating within 2-3 hours before bed and onset of melatonin production, may improve our health and potentially prolong our healthspan.”
