The 5min per day meditation data discussed in this episode from neuroscientist and expert in recalibrating default brain states Dr Richie Davidson is a call to action. So many benefits. So little time (required).

A great summary by Dr. Stu Phillips on the updated resistance training recommendations.

"The best resistance training program is probably not the most complicated one. It is the one you can do consistently, progress sensibly, and stick with over time."

Higher resting heart rate predicts shorter lifespan. Train consistently.

NAD⁺ as a central hub regulating the hallmarks of aging: Mechanisms and therapeutic implications https://t.co/Mw45GF0QhL

[Robert Lufkin MD @robertlufkinmd]

I teach medical students that autophagy -- the body's cellular "recycling system" -- is one of the most powerful anti-aging mechanisms we have. Until now, we had no direct human proof that fasting triggers it.

That just changed.

Cedars-Sinai researchers ran the first human trial measuring autophagic flux during a 5-day fasting-mimicking diet. Results:

- Measurable increase in cellular recycling (autophagy flux)
- Improved insulin sensitivity (HOMA-IR dropped by 1.6)
- Lower fasting glucose
- Effect persisted even 2 days AFTER resuming normal eating

The key finding? It's not just about eating less. Macronutrient composition matters -- only the ProLon formulation triggered lasting autophagy. Calorie restriction alone was not enough.

In "Lies I Taught in Medical School," I explain why we overlooked the metabolic roots of disease. This study shows your cells can literally clean house -- if you give them the right signals.

Full breakdown coming on the Health Longevity Secrets podcast.

Rogan Redo.
Yesterday I was in Austin to do a Joe Rogan podcast.
I wasn’t sure if I could announce it, or when it would go live- but I guess the answer is now!
It was a pretty amazing conversation! I think y’ll are going to enjoy it.

Raising NAD levels reduces inflammation in humans.

At least 8 randomized controlled trials show that ~1 gram per day of nicotinamide riboside (NR) lowers key inflammatory cytokines, including IL-6 and TNF-α.

NAD depletion is a hallmark of chronic inflammatory states, from respiratory infections to metabolic disease to unhealthy aging. In many of these conditions, inflammation itself disrupts NAD metabolism, creating a vicious cycle where inflammation lowers NAD, and low NAD impairs the body’s ability to resolve stress and repair damage.

NAD is required for DNA repair, mitochondrial energy production, sirtuin signaling, and cellular antioxidant defenses. When NAD drops, these systems suffer.

@CharlesMBrenner explains that restoring NAD with precursors like NR may help break that cycle by supporting the body’s natural repair, detoxification, and anabolic processes.

Importantly, these effects have been observed in randomized human trials, not just animal models.

And of course, lifestyle factors such as omega-3 fatty acids, exercise, quality sleep, and weight loss also robustly lower inflammation. NAD precursors could be an effective tool when paired with these "first-line" health pillars.

Reducing body weight by as little as 11 lbs. can lower the risk of knee osteoarthritis by more than 50% in overweight women.

Obesity carries a 28% greater risk of knee osteoarthritis, and the risk rises to 42% if someone has both general obesity (a BMI above 30) and central obesity (excess additional fat).

Higher body weight elevates risk in two ways. First, every extra pound adds up to 4x as much force to the knee joint.

Beyond mechanical strain, surplus body fat acts as an endocrine organ, persistently releasing pro-inflammatory molecules that can degrade cartilage.

For those with osteoarthritis already, weight loss helps by reducing the force on joints and encouraging healthy physical activity. Movement is medicine.
