How does exercise impact the onset of autophagy
My understanding is that autohpagy (and other benefits of the fasted state) kicks in at significant levels after 15 hours. But how may this be different for endurance athletes, like me? If for example, I train very hard in the morning before breakfast, will autophagy kick in after a shorter fasting window? Or if I do a 5-hour cycle ride (moderate effort), and I eat a little, but not enough to fuel my activity, will autophagy kick in, because I'm in calorie deficit, even though there is food in my system? Thank you. Helen (Brighton, UK)
An Epidemiologist’s Guide to Debunking Nutritional Research
Andrew - I came across this article in Medscape. I was surprised by the author's claim regarding Omega 3 and Calcium (section 2), citing the ASCEND and VITAL studies. Can you offer any clarity? https://www.medscape.com/viewarticle/epidemiologists-guide-debunking-nutritional-research-2024a1000ktj
My MRI shows right sided Hippocampal Atrophy
Hi Andrew. I've had a high stress occupation most of my life - I'm now 63. My annoying symptom is loud tinnitus. My brain MRI shows right hippocampal atrophy which my neurologist says is one of the main causes of my loud tinnitus. Do you know of any treatment to restore hippocampal size?
