Rates of colorectal cancer incidence have steadily risen in the last few decades, and I think that ultra-processed foods, particularly processed meats, are a major culprit. Along with cancer rates, processed meat intake has also increased. Processed meat accounts for

Processed meat is a carcinogen Full stop Colorectal cancer rates have surged since the 1930s, and it’s no coincidence Over the same decades, our diets have shifted dramatically toward ultra-processed, nutrient-poor, calorie-dense foods packed with sugar, sodium, and additives https://t.co/WMnJUNySTR

Very exciting and promising preliminary results here on the use of creatine supplementation for Alzheimer's disease. A dose of 20g/day for 8 weeks increased brain creatine levels by 11% and improved several measures of cognitive function.

🧵 (1/3) Excited to finally share our creatine pilot trial in AD results! We found that 20 g/day creatine monohydrate for 8 weeks was safe and feasible in people with AD. Compliance was excellent, and serum creatine significantly increased. https://t.co/ZWPd98CY6o

My recent video highlighted strong observational evidence that vitamin D reduces dementia risk by ~40%. Yet some responses seem to have missed that this relationship doesn't stand on observational data alone. See my response below. Watch the full episode to get the complete

@cremieuxrecueil Your "quick-and-dirty" Mendelian randomization (MR) is already outmatched by a peer-reviewed MR that aligns closely with the observational data linking vitamin D to dementia risk. The 40% figure indeed comes from a large prospective cohort study (12,388 adults, 10-year

Just one hour of indoor aerobic exercise can boost circulating levels of active vitamin D by 35%. Vitamin D is stored in the body's fat tissue. In obesity, large fat stores can sequester vitamin D, leading to lower serum levels of the major circulating form, 25(OH)D, despite https://t.co/LEJrLehMAu

Medications like semaglutide (a GLP-1 receptor agonist) are gaining attention not only for their metabolic benefits but also for potential neuroprotective effects. Recent studies suggest they may reduce dementia risk by up to 33% in individuals with type 2 diabetes. These https://t.co/ETjBNsOo3r

Mild cognitive impairment isn't a fixed fate. Even brief bouts of physical activity can rewire the brain, slowing and even reversing cognitive decline. In a large-scale, randomized controlled trial, just 45 minutes of exercise, light or moderate, performed four times per week https://t.co/gMLILesmBv

RT @B_Holmer: Rhonda Patrick just did an interview with Dr. Ben Levine and it was probably one of the most important and thorough breakdown…

Microplastics are silently invading our cells—but colorful compounds in berries and vegetables might help neutralize their impact. Emerging evidence indicates that anthocyanins—the vibrant pigments responsible for the rich hues of blueberries and purple cabbage—can bind to the https://t.co/zzfNNbuKaM

We have an entire page dedicated to Sauna on the website (with over 100 references). It's updated frequently too! https://t.co/AyA4YIbw7h

@RogerSeheult @bryan_johnson she is great, but I much prefer written bullet points with links to research articles instead a youtube video. So, the science is more accessible in this thread. I think @foundmyfitness has a pdf summary of sauna on her website too.

This is a helpful graphic showing why we can't get performance-enhancing doses of creatine from dietary sources alone. Supplementing with 5-10 grams per day (1-2 scoops of powder) is much more feasible than eating such a large quantity of meat or milk.

@PelleBlarke @foundmyfitness Hi @PelleBlarke & @foundmyfitness Here is an image that I created to make this concept a bit easier to understand. Now, extrapolate this to 25g/day. Here's a short substack post that I created about this topic as well. My best! David https://t.co/89hQbFj5vZ https://t.co/vI9xlcLUrL
