Re: Whiskey/brandy for longevity?

Well, there is (one) study that shows alcohol (even moderate) is detrimental for E4s. I suspect that in the past alcohol helped longevity because it killed microbes. For example, in the london cholera outbreaks (before they learned not to eject sewage upstream of water intake in river), those that d...

Re: No Cure in our lifetime - Bad title, interesting article

That seemed like more of an opinion. It looked (to us close to a decade ago) that amyloid plaques were more of a marker than a cause. Yet many trials continued to find ways to remove it.

Re: Slacklining: Vestibular, working memory & more

Re: 21 Proven Ways to Increase Brain Blood Flow

What about inversion? A friend recently mentioned it's been shown to help thyroid issues, presumably because of blood flow - so it seems it would help the brain. I'm already doing a couple of poses for stretching (like downward dog), so why not?

Re: Exercise-Very Encouraging Study. What is your Exercise Prescription?

I've read there are different separate benefits with HIIT, moderate exercise and endurance excercise for BDNF and mitochondria. My guess is try to fit in all 3 to be optimal, but I have no idea of the perfect way to mix it up ...

Re: K2 MK4
