    34:30 Growth hormone stimulates collagen production.

    37:15 Low dose Rapamycin slows the aging process.

    40:30 Methylene Blue has been used as a nootropic.

  • The relationship between breakfast, sleep, and weight is complex. While skipping breakfast has been traditionally linked with weight gain, new evidence emphasizes the critical role of adequate sleep in maintaining a healthy weight. By focusing on good sleep hygiene and balanced nutrition, individuals can better manage their weight and overall health.

    Yang, W. et al. Short sleep time may be the main reason for irregular breakfast to cause overweight—a cross-sectional study. Front. Nutr. 11, 1310155 (2024).

    Time Stamps:


    00:00 Irregular breakfast eaters have increased body mass indexes.

    01:00 Food influences your circadian clock system like light does.

    02:00 Change of energy balance is one cause of overweight.

    02:15 Irregular meal timing perturbs your circadian rhythm.

    04:10 Time eating and exercise consistently.

    05:45 Regular breakfast eating habits (eating or not eating) are linked to lower body mass index.

    06:45 Exercise outdoors.

    07:20 Regular exercise impacts sleep.

    08:30 Irregular sleep duration and timing influences irregular feeding timing.

    Research Mentioned:

    Devesa, A. et al. Cardiac Insulin Resistance in Subjects With Metabolic Syndrome Traits and Early Subclinical Atherosclerosis. Diabetes Care 46, 2050–2057 (2023).

    Time Stamps:

    00:00 FDG = Fluorodeoxyglucose

    00:30 Reduced glucose uptake in the heart is tethered to atherosclerosis.

    01:20 LDL levels are not strongly associated with poor outcomes.

    02:00 Your heart becomes insulin resistant.

    03:05 Those with no glucose uptake in the heart had higher fasting glucose.

    03:45 Those with more cardiovascular risk factors had lower LDL.

    04:35 The heart can generate energy from fatty acids, carbs, and ketones.

    05:00 Cardiac abnormalities are associated with metabolic syndrome.

    07:00 Insulin resistance changes muscle and heart muscle.

    09:16 Insulin resistance is associated with a progressive decrease of myocardial FDG uptake.

    09:50 Cardiovascular risk increases with the decline of FDG uptake.

    11:30 Your heart loses the ability to pump blood effectively as it loses ability to utilize different energy substrates.

    12:40 Support your heart by supporting your metabolism.

  • New studies show sedentary individuals don't experience significant increases in fat oxidation with acute exercise, but those who maintain higher step counts exhibit notable health improvements, including reduced triglycerides and blood lactate levels.

    With an optimal step count of 8600 steps per day, the episode highlights the serious health risks associated with chronic inactivity.

    Key Takeaways:

    00:00 If you are sedentary, it is hard to burn fat during exercise.

    01:10 Move throughout the day.

    02:05 Exercise inactivity is the 4th leading cause of death.

    03:30 If you are sedentary, an acute round of exercise does not increase fat oxidation.

    04:30 Triglycerides were lower by 27% in the high step count group.

    09:20 Blood lactate is reduced by 11% in the high step count group.

    10:00 Fat oxidation increases with the higher step count.

    11:10 Optimal step count is 8600/day or more.

    12:00 Atherosclerosis is impacted by chronic inactivity.

    12:45 Brain health is impacted by chronic inactivity.

    13:00 Intermittent exercise does not mitigate chronic inactivity.
