#750 - Dr Rhonda Patrick - The Most Important Daily Habits For Health & Longevity
Key Takeaways
- Benefits of adequate omega-3: protects against heart disease, improves cognitive function, delays all-cause mortality
- Supplement 2g daily (with food for optimal absorption) and/or eat plenty of wild Alaskan salmon (the cleanest food source)
- Pay attention to protein intake! Revised protein guideline: 1.2g/kg body weight (up to 1.6g/kg body weight for those looking for gains)
- Tips for time-restricted eating: (1) don’t worry too much about the time but stop eating 3 hours before bed; (2) eat a high-protein breakfast
- When it comes to diet & nutrition: focus on what you need to get in your diet first, not what you need to avoid
- Tips to improve cognitive function: exercise, multivitamins; eat 1 cup of blueberries daily; cocoa from dark chocolate (unsweetened); get plenty of lutein, choline, and omega-3s from diet
- Is brain fog weighing you down? Try these tips:
- (1) avoid refined carbohydrates; (2) try to get 1-3 minute exercise snacks throughout the day; (3) eat protein or fat 10-30 minutes before carbohydrates; (4) eat smaller meals to avoid inflammatory response; (5) omega-3s can help blunt glucose spike
- Non-pharmaceutical ways to improve mood: exercise, deliberate heat/sauna exposure, deliberate cold exposure
- The most exercise for longevity is VO2 max training
- Try the 4×4 protocol: vigorous exercise (you cannot speak) for 4 minutes, then rest for 4 minutes, repeat 4 rounds
- Sprinkle in resistance training 2 hours per week, and zone 2 cardio when you can for a well-rounded program
