@DrJesseMorse Arguably a high quality multivitamin with high-bioavailable forms of each component should be solidly #1 before anything else on this list.

[caleb zmuda @c_zmud]

@DrJesseMorse I find this list problematic. At the very least it should be rearranged. I would never add in any of these “anti-aging” supplement into my regiment before getting basic vitamin and minerals squared away. Mg, D3, K2, and C should all be higher on the list.

[caleb zmuda @c_zmud]

@forgedmedicine @maxlugavere Everything on his list is still cheaper/~nutritional value~ than buying processed or fast food.

[caleb zmuda @c_zmud]

@zoeharcombe I understand the sentiment behind your post. But from an organic chemistry standpoint, listing out constituent atoms is more or less meaningless. I don’t find this comparison helpful.

@hubermanlab Are there any known connections between the increasing levels of infertility and the frequency of women who choose to use hormonal IUDs throughout their 20s?

@scottzmuda Trying to dig an anecdote out of me? 🙃

[caleb zmuda @c_zmud]

I think we need to leave some wiggle room in the health & nutrition space for taking risks.

When preliminary, yet inconclusive evidence on a behavior/supplement emerges, we are faced with a choice:

A) Risk test the theory on ourselves.

Or

B) Wait for more conclusive data.

So what is it?

Am I atophogying my toxic-cytokine-releasing dead cells?

Or playing whack a mole with my muscles?

Maybe one day we’ll find the answer.

[caleb zmuda @c_zmud]

There seems to be a strong argument that maintaining muscle composition improves health-span.

And the combination of 1) having a steady source of proteins available throughout the day and 2) avoiding periods of fasting induced autophagy could help minimize muscle loss.

@BradStanfieldMD This imperative is too strong and is lacking justification. Could you explain your thought process in this one?

[caleb zmuda @c_zmud]

@scottzmuda That is why I first asked my question. 😮‍💨

[caleb zmuda @c_zmud]

@scottzmuda I regret taking the bait

[caleb zmuda @c_zmud]

@scottzmuda Can you explain where this idea comes from

[caleb zmuda @c_zmud]

@scottzmuda @saraheeberry I think percent daily value number are compromised… but for different reasons 🥸

[caleb zmuda @c_zmud]

When you read the Nutrition Facts on the back of the box you’re seeing the total quantity present in the food (when completely decomposed as measured in a lab).

But you don’t get everything!

[caleb zmuda @c_zmud]

@scottzmuda @saraheeberry Not necessarily. For ultra processed food these Nutritional Fact could be very close to what your body absorbs. However, if raw/less processed then more nutrients will remained trapped within cell structures.

This was not meant to be a criticism of Nutrition Facts approach.

Listen to this podcast if your interested in hearing more. @saraheeberry shared about how her lab estimates that as much as 30% of the nutrients across a variety of nuts goes undigested.

And it sounds like they took a quite direct approach to getting these measurements…
