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.

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

Rhonda Patrick just did an interview with Dr. Ben Levine and it was probably one of the most important and thorough breakdowns of exercise for heart health (and potential harms of high-volume exercise) ever. Gold mine. 👉🏻 youtu.be/qMs145DJyb0?si…

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

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

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

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

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.
