“New Scientist article. 02:06:10 - Some people, like Tom Cruise and Keanu Reeves, seem to defy aging. 02:08:15 - One 12-ounce can of sugar-sweetened soft drink per day shortened telomere length, corresponding to 4.6 years of biological aging.”

“Finally, choline is also a precursor for phosphatidylcholine, the major component of all cell membranes, which affects the structure, permeability and function of cells and is particularly important in neurons since it plays a role in general neurotransmission.”

“People who have poor cardiorespiratory fitness are more likely to be depressed. Sauna improves cardiorespiratory fitness and may offer a means to ameliorate the symptoms of depression and improve mood. In this clip, Drs. Rhonda Patrick and Jari Laukkanen discuss the benefits of sauna use in terms of cardiorespiratory fitness and mood.”

“A preliminary study shows atrophy in olfactory brain regions and areas responsible for learning and memory, after COVID-19 illness, even in those with mild cases. Converging evidence suggests that the long-term impacts of SARS-CoV-2 infection are unknown.”

“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.”

“Another randomized study found better long-term picture-location memory when exercise occurred four hours after learning, showing that timing can shape the result. Dr. Patrick also discusses serotonin and hippocampal neurogenesis as a possible biological link.”

“Assessing and quantifying the exposome — all of the non-genetic tangible exposures we experience during a lifetime, including those from the air, physical surroundings, microbes, and chemicals — is challenging.”

“While Dr. Rhonda Patrick’s first video focused primarily on the micronutrients found in the various fruits and vegetables she put in her smoothie, this one, in addition to offering some modest changes on the recipe, instead focuses on the beneficial “hormetic” compounds that are NOT micronutrients.”

“A pooled analysis of 17 prospective cohorts associated higher circulating long-chain omega-3 levels with lower total mortality, but it does not prove that raising an individual’s index causes added years of life or offsets smoking.”
