The Longevity & Brain Benefits of Vigorous Exercise
Dr. Rhonda Patrick (61 minutes)
Published by: FoundMyFitness - 6 Dec 2023
This episode challenges common perceptions about exercise, delving deep into the benefits of vigorous exercise for not just physical health but also brain function, aging, and even cancer prevention. It tackles fundamental questions, like what genetic and metabolic adaptations occur with vigorous exercise and how it can contribute to combating heart's age-related changes. We also unpack how these rigorous exercises affect glucose transport, mitochondrial health, and brain health at an intricate level. Lastly, it introduces practical applications like the Norwegian 4x4 interval training protocol, the benefits of "exercise snacks," and how to incorporate vigorous-intensity exercise into everyday life.

Rhonda Patrick Goes in Depth on the Benefits of Omega-3s
Dr. Rhonda Patrick (16 minutes)
Published by: FoundMyFitness - 10 Nov 2023
80% of people globally (and ~95% of people in the US) don't get enough EPA & DHA. Why does this matter? For one, just as many deaths per year are attributable to trans fans as they are to not consuming enough EPA/DHA. Other key benefits of EPA/DHA include reduced inflammation (a key driver of the aging process) and protection against disuse atrophy.
How to Improve Metabolic Health with HIIT, Circadian-Timed Eating, & Sleep
Dr. Rhonda Patrick (50 minutes)
Published by: FoundMyFitness - 11 Oct 2024
Exercise, meal timing, and sleep—what do they have in common? They’re three simple yet powerful tools we all have at our disposal for optimizing metabolic health, a critical factor in determining how well we age. Even slightly elevated blood glucose levels, still within the "normal" range, can accelerate brain atrophy, targeting critical areas like the hippocampus and amygdala, both linked to aging and neurodegeneration. On top of that, long-term elevations in glucose, marked by a high HbA1c, can also lead to the formation of advanced glycation end products (AGEs), which stiffen blood vessels, reduce heart elasticity, and increase the risk of hypertension and cardiovascular disease.
