“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.”

“Dr. Patrick explains some of the early evidence that suggests the value prolonged fasting (48+ hours) may have from the standpoint of tissue rejuvenation and healthspan maintenance, as well as relevance for other more specific conditions.”

“Gaining FDA approval of psilocybin under these conditions is problematic, however, due to the negative connotations associated with the compound's use and the potential for harm when used in vulnerable populations.”

“One prospective cohort associated prenatal BPA exposure with later, not earlier, timing of some pubertal milestones in girls, while a systematic review found no strong, consistent correlation between BPA exposure and pubertal timing.”

“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.”

“A large meta-analysis found that protein supplementation improved resistance-training gains in muscle size and strength, with little additional lean-mass benefit above an estimated total intake of about 1.6 grams per kilogram per day for most participants.”

“When produced during exercise (especially high intensity workouts like cycling, which shifts metabolism toward glycolysis to more quickly meet the high energetic demands), lactate switches on more than 600 genes involved in muscle adaptation, stimulates mitochondrial biogenesis – the process of making new mitochondria – and promotes protein synthesis, which is essential for muscle growth.”

“1 2 3 00:31:57 - How skill-based exercise, such as yoga, Tai chi, boxing, tango or skateboarding may play a special role in ameliorating some of the effects of the disease by driving circuit-specific effects, by creating top-down cognitive challenge for skills involved in a patient's movement through space.”

“Dr. Patrick then prioritizes lower-glycemic-load, less-refined foods and adequate fiber. Early time-restricted eating can help some people reduce calories and may influence selected metabolic markers, but it is not required and must still preserve protein and diet quality.”

“Unlike antibody treatments that target the PCSK9 protein (an important regulator of blood cholesterol levels), which are very expensive, base editing could deliver permanent protection from hypercholesterolemia with just one dose.”
