“In 25,241 adults who reported no structured exercise, a median of three one- or two-minute vigorous lifestyle bouts per day was associated with 38% to 40% lower all-cause and cancer mortality and 48% to 49% lower cardiovascular mortality.”

“Controlled human studies support acute brain-related responses to high-intensity exercise. Six short all-out cycling intervals improved selected learning and executive measures while increasing circulating BDNF, IGF-1, and VEGF; lactate tracked several of these changes.”

“Exercise can improve blood pressure, insulin sensitivity, triglycerides, and fitness, but someone with high ApoB or LDL may still need targeted diet changes and clinician-guided lipid-lowering treatment. Mood is another major benefit.”

“Studies of centenarians suggest that lower levels of inflammation are associated with longevity. Different types of fiber provide fuel to diverse species of bacteria in the gut, which then synthesize byproducts that regulate the inflammatory process.”

“In this clip, Drs. Levine and Patrick discuss genetic and environmental factors that can accelerate or slow epigenetic aging. Dr. Levine also discusses the aging clock she created and how it can be used, along with other biomarkers, to determine an individual's rate of aging.”

“Evidence continues to emerge that illustrates that the fasting-mimicking diet, particularly its ability to cause immune cell turnover, may provide beneficial effects in the treatment of auto-immune diseases such as multiple sclerosis.”

“In a clinical trial, researchers subjected people to three cycles of a fasting-mimicking diet and measured biomarkers including cholesterol, triglycerides, fasting glucose, IGF-1, blood pressure, and C-reactive protein.”

“A commonly observed behavior among mammals is the so-called "sickness behavior," where a person or animal that is sick will retreat, avoiding food and contact. This abstention from food induces autophagy and may serve as a means to modulate the body's inflammatory response.”

“In REDUCE-IT, prescription icosapent ethyl lowered major ischemic events among statin-treated adults with elevated triglycerides, while atrial fibrillation or flutter requiring hospitalization occurred more often in the treatment group.”

“Although this extreme cooling could provoke a life-threatening condition called coronary spasm in people with underlying cardiovascular conditions, it poses little risk among healthy people.”
