      @WellnessMessiah I hope you can answer this specific question about Resveratrol that I'm trying to incorporate into my regime. I know I should not take Resveratrol after the exercise because it will neglect the positive oxidising effects of exercise, and I also know the anti-oxidising effects of Resveratrol last only 9 hours. My question is, how long the beneficial oxidising effects of exercise last in my body after making exercise? So i know how much time AFTER i make exercise is safe to take resveratrol without neglecting the beneficial oxidising effects of exercise?

    Dr. Bruce Ames (of the famous "ames test") discovered ALA's longevity-boosting properties in 1995. And he found ALA worked better when taken with Acetyl-L-Carnitine. The combined supplementation of ALCAR and LA (ALCAR+LA) reverses age-related metabolic decline, improves hepatocellular ascorbate levels, and lowers oxidant appearance and oxidative damage. Dr. Ames also eats the Mediterranean diet and is still active and working at 94 years old.

      I used to think that Sinclair was the only obstacle to folks getting longevity supplements. He may well be the biggest obstacle, but he's joined by Rimon. If you aren't aware of the shenanigans, they can seem like nice people trying to help you.

      As of now David Sinclair hasn't taken anything from you. He has instead helped boost peoples awareness of NMN which helped the market for NMN grow. I would not have found any of the longevity supplements if it wasn't for Sinclair's book "Lifespan".

    ALA increases the activity of NAMPT, the rate limiting enzyme in the salvage cycle producing NAD+, among other valuable stuff in the TCA cycle and the metabolism of fatty acids....
    about the cost: the cheapest I found is about 11€ per month for R-ALA, as capsules, in powder form for RS-ALA indeed around 6€, but currently not available

    • @valeriescafe2879
      @valeriescafe2879 3 місяці тому

      So according to the nerve Dr channel, R LAL is the natural form , the other two forms or any combo of the 3 forms , for example the RS form is a combo of the natural form R and the S is synthetic and the synthetic does not absorb well and the synthetic form cancels out the natural ones. Also it was stated that a clean form of R LAL will cost about 50 bucks a bottle / month. I live in Canada and that is what I payed at our health food store. Maybe cheaper elsewhere or other Countries. I am treating neuropathy

      Generally speaking no. But in times of focused muscle growth, it is better to take time off - but it will cost you some longevity (I have done it myself, had a spurt of white hair). Regular exercise for health - not a problem.

    I had heard about this supplement before from Dr. Andrew Weil. However, when I did a quick UA-cam search, Dr. Brad Stanfield put out a video about 6 months ago that said he would not recommend for anyone other than diabetics. Could you consider doing a response to that video as you have in the past? I never know whether to trust the content from Dr. Stanfield ever since he started bashing Dr. Sinclair. Thanks for all the work you put into your videos. I have gotten a lot of valuable information from your content!

      yep, better to forget him. Little Brad boy has an ego problem, and is talking b.s. all over. Nothing holds upon close analysis. In his famous NMN "study", he cited those 8 supporting his argument, while silencing the other 23 studies... he is not a scientist with a track record, he is a little dude on the internet. Sinclair has a long history of publications from his lab in the worlds top 2 scientific journals... over and over again.

    Hi, I have just started taking R-ALA 600 mg on empty stomach and 1000 MG glycine. Post lunch, am taking NAC.
    Please suggest if these doses are good enough or I should cut. And should I take glycine and R-ALA together or put some gap between them.
    Am 34 year old male suffering from chronic sciatic nerve pain from3 years.
    Also, I have started giving 300mg / half tablet of R-ALA to my mother along with glycine 1000mg. Haven't started giving her NAC yet.
    She also suffering from peripheral neuropathy and has extreme inflammation and tingling in left foot.
    I don't want to give her wrong doses as it effects longevity. Not sure what dose will be good and what not.
    3rd. My dad is heart patient and already on blood thinner. Should I be giving him any of these supplements that can help him to be healthier? If yes, which ones and what dose?
    Thanks in advance!!

    ALA (not the fat but Alpha Lipoc Acid) is delicate - and a stabilized version (that is not cheap) is required, ideally time-released and liposomal. Maybe an injectable form will be more helpful.

      you confuse it with alpha linolenic acid, which is an omega 3 fatty acid, and also abbreviated as ALA.
      Yet chemically alpha-lipoic acid is drastically different, its thioctic acid, is an organosulfur compound derived, and from its structure and its biology I would conclude that it is NOT present in flax seed oil.
