Are diet and lifestyle always sufficient for enhancing nitric oxide? Welcome to another episode of the Gladden Longevity Podcast with Dr. Jeffrey Gladden and Dr. Nathan Bryan! Dr. Bryan holds a Biochemistry B.Sc. from the University of Texas and a Ph.D. from Louisiana State University School of Medicine. A former Kirschstein Fellow at Boston University, he joined the University of Texas Health Science Center faculty in 2006. With 20 years in nitric oxide research, he's secured numerous patents. As an entrepreneur, he founded successful companies like HumanN, Inc. and serves as CEO of Bryan Therapeutics, Inc., focused on nitric oxide therapies for heart disease, Alzheimer's, and diabetic wounds. Dr. Bryan is an influential figure in molecular medicine and nitric oxide biochemistry. In this episode, they talk about all things nitric oxide and how your body cannot and will not heal or perform without adequate nitric oxide. They also speak about how things like mouthwash, fluoride, and drug therapy such as antacids lead to loss of NO production and how there is a need to supplement nitric oxide due to Western diet and hygienic practices. Why should you stop using mouthwash?   Dr. Gladden has known Nathan for over ten years and says he is a genius. (00:40) Steven is still shocked at how mouthwash affects our health. (1:21) Steve shares how he rediscovered a cardio workout. (2:50) Dr. Gladden likes the idea of using twenty-seven as a benchmark for his youthfulness. (04:39) Dr. Gladden shares Nathan's profile.

Welcome to part 2 of episode 29 on the “Love at First Science'' Podcast where Jenna Leser speaks to slowing the aging process through her research on bone density. Do you know the importance of bone density for your overall health? Jenna Leser is a Pd.D. student in molecular medicine and she shares her findings related to bone density on the podcast. She explains the various functions the bones serve, how they adapt to the daily challenges and how to improve bone density. She points out what effects exercise and diet have on bone mass, what changes occur when becoming older and what it takes to grow bone mass when aging. She depicts how important gravity and using force within exercises is and details how important the homeostatic set point is. In addition she shares how to preserve bone density, the importance of progressively increasing the strength and load you are putting the body through, and how critical variety is. In sharing her journey and connecting her research to yoga and movement she stresses the importance of increasing bone density in a simple manner. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------   Learn More About Jenna Leser: Originally from New York, I moved to Maryland to attend Johns Hopkins University where I graduated with a Bachelor's in Biology and a minor in Bioethics. My interest in biological sciences and how the body functions led me to become a research technician in neuro-gastroenterology at The Johns Hopkins Medical Institute upon graduation in 2015. In 2017 I enrolled in (and am now wrapping up soon!), a Ph.D. in Molecular Medicine, with a focus on Cellular and Molecular Physiology, at the University of Maryland Baltimore. I train in the Department of Orthopaedics under the mentorship of Dr. Joseph Stains, Ph.D. and my studies investigate the function of osteocytes, cells that reside inside the hard, calcified bone itself. We are continuing to expand our understanding of osteocytes as regulators of bone formation/resorption in response to hormonal, biochemical, and mechanical cues, with a special interest in the context of aging. As a former gymnast, dancer, pole vaulter, and field hockey player - I have had my fair share of exposure to orthopedics as a patient, so finding a research home in this department feels full circle. In an attempt to mitigate the stress of doctoral studies and get back to my roots as an athlete, I began my relationship with yoga.

Hello and welcome to The Progress Theory where we discuss how to implement scientific principles to optimise human performance. In this episode we have Dr Keith Baar, Professor of Molecular exercise physiology at the University of California. But before we get to the show I want to thank our sponsors, who the show would not be possible without. I want to take a moment to express my gratitude to my production partner, KULT Media.  KULT Media has been instrumental in the development & success of the progress theory.  They have created brand guides, comprehensive podcast strategies, enhanced the podcast production, developed custom workflows for me and edited & mixed all of the video, audio and social media content.  Their simple Coach, Create & Collaborate process has saved me 100's hours in podcast production, resolved countless technical issues and consistently help me to improve my podcasting game.  So if you want to establish and engage your audience, or are ready to launch your own podcast head to http://www.kult.media (www.kult.media) to learn more.  Thank you to HMN24 – fuelling human potential and optimising everyday human performance and well-being.  First of all – HMN24 is not a sports supplement company. I've seen sport supplements be used as a method to improve performance in the gym and at a certain sport. However, these supplements, like a pre-workout, are often used on top of a lifestyle which does not provide the foundation needed for optimal performance. There's no point taking pre-workout supplements if your sleep, hydration, and nutrition is an unstructured mess. I'm convinced that a large percentage of injuries are often caused, not because training was poor, but because a poor lifestyle foundation increased the athlete's susceptibility to injury. Sports supplements are often used to plaster the cracks in poor lifestyle habits, which only causes more future problems.  And this is where HMN24 is different. The product range at HMN24 not only helps improve your foundation; it optimises it. The HMN24 products are designed to fit around your circadian rhythms, from the moment you wake up, to key moments in the day when you need optimal focus, to getting the best sleep at night, there's a product to optimise each phase of the day. I can't recommend enough the “live on form' pack, consisting of the products Rise, flow and pre-sleep. Rise is for the morning and is my absolute favourite. It tastes amazing. Rise contains caffeine for increased morning alertness (though not a huge amount of caffeine, which is sooo much better for avoiding gastro-intestinal distress), electrolytes from coconut and watermelon powder to increase hydration after the previous night's sleep, and B-vitamins, to ensure you ready to win the morning. I'm not a fan of long-winded morning routines. I wake up, have my Rise with ice, and get straight to writing, and I've seen such an improvement in getting into deep work. By the time 2pm comes around the effects of caffeine from Rise has worn off, but I don't want to take more caffeine because that's going to interrupt getting to sleep later on. This is where Flow is perfect. It's a caffeine-free nootropic, perfect for improving alertness and concentration during that mid-afternoon slump. And finally, I take pre-sleep just before bed, which is a comprehensive night-time complex, formulated to help support well-being and fortify the body against the fatigue and stress that come with leading a performance-driven lifestyle.  I can't recommend these products enough they are a game changer for human performance.

Researchers look to licorice for promising cancer treatments   University of Illinois Chicago, April 6, 2022   Licorice is more than a candy people either love or hate—it may play a role in preventing or treating certain types of cancer, according to researchers at the University of Illinois Chicago. Gnanasekar Munirathinam and his research team are studying substances derived from the licorice plant Glycyrrhiza glabra to determine if they could be used to prevent or stop the growth of prostate cancer. "When we look at the research out there and our own data, it appears that glycyrrhizin and its derivative glycyrrhetinic acid have great potential as anti-inflammatory and anti-cancer agents," Munirathinam said. "We hope our research on prostate cancer cells advances the science to the point where therapies can be translated to help prevent or even cure prostate and other types of cancer."   (NEXT)   Not all dietary fiber is equal: Cereal fiber linked with lower inflammation, but not fruit or vegetable fiber   Columbia University, April 6, 2022   Researchers at Columbia University Mailman School of Public Health and colleagues evaluated whether dietary fiber intake was associated with a decrease in inflammation in older adults and if fiber was inversely related to cardiovascular disease. The results showed that total fiber, and more specifically cereal fiber but not fruit or vegetable fiber, was consistently associated with lower inflammation and lower CVD incidence. The research confirmed previously observed associations between dietary fiber and CVD and extended those investigations to include the source of the fiber, the relationship of fiber with multiple inflammatory markers, and to test whether inflammation mediated the relationship between dietary fiber and CVD.   (NEXT)   How to reduce loneliness: Meaningful activities can improve health, well-being   Pennsylvania State University   Free time is sometimes idealized, but research shows free time can sometimes be unhealthy by increasing loneliness. A new Penn State study demonstrated that engaging in meaningful, challenging activities during free time can reduce people's loneliness and increase their positive feelings. Across two different studies, the researchers found that people who had meaningful, challenging experiences were less lonely—even when higher levels of social contact and support were not available. Our research shows that both of these ideas are true. By engaging in meaningful activities during free time that demand focus, people can reduce loneliness and increase momentary happiness."  "Loneliness is very connected to our health," Dattilo explained. "Psychological, emotional, and cognitive health are all challenged when people are lonely. Loneliness is associated with depression and other mental health challenges."   (NEXT)   Curcumin Found To Outperform Pneumococcal Vaccines In Protecting Infants   UCLA, April 1, 2022   Now new research finds a substance in turmeric, curcumin, may outperform the vaccine in providing long lasting protection against potentially deadly lung damage in infants. Pneumococcal bacteria are the most common cause of bacterial infections in children and a frequent cause of infections in adults. Infection starts in the nose or throat where it may persist for weeks or months. Pneumococcal infections are also the most common complication of seasonal influenza. Researchers at Los Angeles Biomedical Research Institute at Harbor-UCLA Medical Center (LA BioMed), using disease models, found curcumin provided long-term protection against the damage caused by inadequate lung function. Their study, published online by the American Journal of Physiology, Lung Cellular and Molecular Physiology, found curcumin provided protection against bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BDP), a condition characterized by scarring and inflammation, and against hyperoxia, in which too much oxygen enters the body through the lungs.   Scott Ritter   via ZOOM   Scott Ritter is a former US Marine Corp intelligence officer and military strategist during the Cold War with the Soviet Union and in the Middle East.

When we think of the word memory, we immediately think of the brain. For example, you may use your 'memory' to recall what you ate yesterday. When we add the word 'muscle,' you may think of the memory of movement in our bodies. When you once learned how to ride a bike, you could still hop on the bike after years of not biking. Used this way, it is unfortunate because our current understanding is that learning to ride the bike is a form of motor learning in the central nervous system - not the muscles. However, there is a third type of memory... . . _______________________ Professor Adam Sharples' Ph.D. investigated skeletal muscle aging using cell models, and he undertook a Post-Doc Fellowship in three-dimensional skeletal muscle cultures.
