  • This episode comes from my keynote lecture at the American Academy of Anti-Aging Medicine LongevityFest 2023, in which I describe several powerful health habits that delay biological aging and improve healthspan. The core idea: You don't have to move mountains to make a big impact on aging. Starting with a few key areas of focus (vitamin D, magnesium, omega-3s, and vigorous exercise) can make a big difference. Thanks @A4MEvents for having me!

    Introduction
    - Dr. Patrick discusses some powerful lifestyle habits that can affect the way we age, including some "low hanging fruit" like dietary modifications and supplements, as well as more effortful interventions like exercise.
    - She covers optimizing micronutrient deficiencies in the first part, and the impact of exercise on a molecular level in the second part.
    Part 1: Optimizing Micronutrient Deficiencies
    Vitamin D
    - Vitamin D is more than just a vitamin - it gets converted into a steroid hormone that interacts with DNA to orchestrate over 5% of the protein-encoding human genome.
    - About 70% of the population has inadequate vitamin D levels of 30 ng/mL or less. This is a widespread issue.
    - Reasons for widespread vitamin D deficiency include: factors blocking UVB radiation like sunscreen, melanin, and living at northern latitudes; decreased skin synthesis with age; and modern indoor lifestyles.
    - In mice, knocking out the vitamin D receptor accelerates aging significantly. Human studies show low vitamin D correlates with higher all-cause mortality risk.
    - Mendelian randomization studies suggest low vitamin D levels have a causal effect on increasing all-cause, cancer, and respiratory disease mortality.
    - Raising vitamin D levels from deficient to sufficient decreased epigenetic age by 2 years in one human trial.
    - The optimal vitamin D range appears to be 40-60 ng/mL based on mortality data. 4000 IU/day of supplemental vitamin D is generally safe and effective to get most people to sufficiency. Individual response varies so the key is testing blood levels.
    Magnesium
    - About half the US population has inadequate magnesium levels, mainly from not eating enough magnesium-rich foods like dark leafy greens.
    - Magnesium is a cofactor for over 300 enzymes involved in energy production, energy utilization, and DNA damage repair.
    - DNA damage is constantly occurring and accumulating with age. Magnesium deficiency impairs ability to repair this damage.
    - Studies show higher magnesium intake is associated with 24% lower pancreatic cancer risk per 100mg, and those in the highest vs lowest magnesium quintile had 40% lower all-cause and 50% lower cancer mortality.
    - Magnesium glycinate, malate and citrate are bioavailable supplement forms. Requirements are ~400mg/day for men, 300-350mg/day for women, and 10-20% higher for very physically active people.
    Omega-3 Fatty Acids
    - A Harvard study identified inadequate omega-3 from seafood as one of the top 6 preventable causes of death in the US, responsible for ~84,000 deaths/year (similar impact as trans fats).
    - This is an unrecognized issue compared to eliminating trans fats.
    - The Omega-3 Index, measuring EPA+DHA in red blood cells, is the best marker of omega-3 status. 8% is optimal.
    - An Omega-3 Index of 8% vs 4% was associated with 90% lower risk of sudden cardiac death, and 5 years longer lifespan. Omega-3 seems to counteract the mortality risk of smoking.
    - Raising the Omega-3 Index from 4% to 8% generally requires 2g/day of EPA+DHA. Prescription ethyl ester forms provide 4g/day.
    Part 1 Summary
    - Three key nutrients to optimize are vitamin D, magnesium, and omega-3s. Simple solutions include:
    1) Vitamin D: 4000 IU/day supplement + testing to achieve 40-60 ng/mL
    2) Omega-3: Supplement with 2g/day EPA+DHA and/or eat fatty fish to get Omega-3 Index to 8%+
    3) Magnesium: Increase leafy green intake + 200-400mg supplemental magnesium glycinate/malate/citrate daily
    Part 2: Vigorous Exercise - The Best Longevity "Drug"
    Why Vigorous Exercise
    - Dr. Patrick is convinced vigorous exercise to 70-80% of max heart rate is currently the most powerful intervention for delaying aging and improving healthspan/lifespan, beyond any drugs or supplements.
    Cardiorespiratory Fitness
    - Cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF), measured by VO2 max, is one of the best biomarkers of longevity.
    - Going from low to even low-normal CRF for age/gender provides a 2.1 year life expectancy benefit. Low to high-normal provides a 2.9 year benefit, and low to elite CRF (top 2-5%) provides almost a 5 year benefit.
    - Each 1 unit higher VO2 max is associated with 45 days longer lifespan. About half the US population has low-normal CRF and half has high-normal.
    - A 2018 study in JAMA found no upper limit to the mortality risk reduction from high CRF. The bottom 25% had massively elevated mortality risk vs high or elite CRF groups.
    - Low CRF carried similar or greater mortality risk than established factors like smoking, diabetes and heart disease.
    - To improve CRF, any exercise helps, but the most potent are vigorous intensity and high intensity interval training (HIIT).
    - About 40% of people don't improve their VO2 max from moderate continuous training, but do respond to vigorous exercise.
    - Longer intervals of 3-5 min at maximum sustainable intensity are ideal for boosting CRF. The Norwegian 4x4 protocol is well-studied for improving VO2 max.
    - A 12-minute maximum effort run/walk test wearing a device to measure distance is a validated way to estimate VO2 max without lab testing.
    Reversing Heart Aging
    - A study by Dr. Ben Levine took 50-year old sedentary but otherwise healthy adults and put them in a 2-year aerobic exercise program working up to 5-6 hours per week at 75-80% max HR + one 4x4 HIIT session.
    - After 2 years, the exercise reversed many structural changes of their aging hearts to look 20 years younger. Left ventricular elasticity improved over 25% and VO2 max increased 20%.
    - This shows it's possible to meaningfully reverse age-related heart decline with a rigorous long-term exercise program even starting in midlife.
    Blood Pressure Benefits
    - 3-4 sessions per week of 20-60 min moderate-to-vigorous aerobic exercise can produce blood pressure reductions rivaling anti-hypertensive drugs.
    - High blood pressure is very common, even in young people, and is a top risk factor for cardiovascular disease and dementia. Exercise is a potent non-pharmacological treatment.
    Molecular Impacts on the Brain
    - During intense exercise, muscles work so hard that they shift from aerobic to anaerobic glucose metabolism, generating lactate.
    - Lactate is not just a metabolic byproduct but a signaling molecule / exerkine that communicates with other organs via the "lactate shuttle".
    - Lactate produced during exercise crosses the blood-brain barrier and acts as a signaling molecule to increase BDNF (brain-derived neurotrophic factor).
    - BDNF is crucial for neuroplasticity, neurogenesis, neuron survival, and the cognitive benefits of exercise. Blocking BDNF prevents the learning and memory benefits.
    - Lactate also signals to increase serotonin, which improves impulse control, and norepinephrine, which increases alertness and focus after intense exercise.
    - 30-40 min of sustained 80% max HR exercise or 6x40 second all-out interval sessions are most potent for raising BDNF 4-5 fold.
    Anti-Cancer Effects
    - The mechanical shear stress of increased blood flow during vigorous exercise can kill circulating tumor cells that have broken off the primary tumor site. Their dysfunctional mechanoreceptors can't handle the force.
    - 6 months of 50-70% max HR exercise for 150 min/week significantly reduced circulating tumor cells in stage 1-3 colorectal cancer patients.
    - Circulating tumor cell count is linked to 3-fold higher cancer recurrence and 4-fold higher cancer mortality.
    - In stage 3 colon cancer, aerobic exercise was associated with 40% lower recurrence and 63% lower mortality.
    Mitochondrial Biogenesis
    - Exercise snacks - 1-3 minute bursts of intense exercise like high knees or jumping jacks interspersed throughout the day - improve metabolic health by promoting mitochondrial biogenesis (generation of new, healthy mitochondria).
    - This happens via lactate signaling to increase PGC-1alpha, the master regulator of mitochondrial biogenesis, in muscle cells.
    - Animal studies show exercise-generated brain lactate also travels to the hippocampus to stimulate mitochondrial biogenesis in neurons. This likely happens in humans too.
    Vigorous Intermittent Lifestyle Activity
    - Even short bouts of vigorous activity like stair sprinting during daily life, separate from structured workouts, have powerful longevity benefits.
    - 3 bouts per day of 1-2 min vigorous lifestyle activity measured by accelerometers was linked to 40% lower all-cause and cancer mortality and 50% lower cardiovascular mortality vs sedentary adults.
    - This applied even for self-identified non-exercisers if they did the intermittent vigorous activity, demonstrating the power of this strategy to break up sed ntary behavior.

      Concluding Thoughts
      - While vigorous exercise was emphasized here, ANY exercise you can do consistently to form a habit is beneficial. Something is always better than nothing.
      - In terms of "bang for your buck", a combination of fixing key micronutrient inadequacies and doing vigorous physical activity addresses two major root causes of aging and age-related disease.
      - Simple steps can include:
      1) Increasing vitamin D to 40-60 ng/mL with supplementation.
      2) Raising your Omega-3 Index to 8%+ with fish and/or fish oil.
      3) Eating leafy greens and supplementing magnesium to 200-400mg/day.
      4) Doing some form of cardio you can sustain for 30-40 min at 75-80% max HR 3+ times per week and/or 4x4 HIIT sessions once a week.
      5) Adding "exercise snacks" of 1-3 min intense bursts of movement frequently during the day, especially before meals.
      - While developing intrinsic motivation is ideal, even having an extrinsic reason to perform vigorous activity, like climbing stairs at work, can provide significant longevity benefits if done consistently.
      - The key is to find a way to make vigorous physical activity a regular part of your lifestyle, whether through dedicated workouts, intermittent bouts of stair sprinting, or anything in between that you can stick with long-term.
      In summary, Dr. Patrick makes a compelling case that by focusing on a handful of high-impact levers - correcting common micronutrient deficiencies and engaging in frequent vigorous physical activity - we can access a reliable "longevity toolkit" to improve healthspan and lifespan starting at any age. While not easy, these interventions are accessible to most people and potent enough to be worth prioritizing if extending healthy years of life is the goal. As more advanced biotechnology solutions continue to be uncovered, attending to these fundamental inputs now builds a strong foundation for realizing those future benefits as well.

    I take Vitamin D, Mg and Omega 3 every day. I make exercise a priority and moved to a place where I can do lots of outdoor sports right out my door. I ride my mountain bike almost every day, and have a bouldering gym membership. I like to do link-ups, with a bicycle ride leading to a run to the top of a small mountain, or maybe ride my bike to a bouldering area or the gym. It's not easy to keep motivated to exercise, but I am always trying to explore new places and think of new combinations. We are getting close to the end of winter and I'm already making lists.

    • @user-ij5ky4lr3x
      @user-ij5ky4lr3x Місяць тому +1

      My biggest takeaway from all the information I have gathered over the years is this exactly.
      Eat as few calories as required to maintain your goals. That means you have to maximize those calories to be as of the utmost optimal quality. Then, give your body breaks to rest, recover, repair itself. Treat the internals of your body the same way you would treat muscles after a hard workout. They need time to recover, build back stronger.
      When your organs process the foods we consume, they incur some small amount of damage. If you never give them time to heal, then eventually, they will succumb to the accumulation of damage.
      Likewise, we have to allow our bodies to use up the energy it has stored. Our bodies store excess calories as fat so that we have energy stores in case we go a prolonged period of time without food to eat. Clearly, an adaptation that allowed us to have an evolutionary advantage when food was scarce for thousands, or even millions, of years of human history. Now we live in a time, for the last hundred years or so, where food is so readily abundant that we never go without. Thus, there is never a time where those energy stores are utilized. We must force ourselves to tap into those stores or be mindful enough to prevent them from forming.
      I'm not saying anyone need to starve themselves. I'm saying that we need to be conscious of what and when we are putting into our bodies.

    Dr. Patrick... You're kinda the best (just don't tell Dr. Peter A! ;) Seriously, tho... For 20 years I've been following every crazy health/diet/longevity trend - spending way too much money on insane supplement stacks that I know will probably barely move the needle of my healthspan vs exercise. But as a founder/entrepreneur I find there's just never "enough time" (read: 'will') to prioritize and squeeze into the day. However, something about your blend of communication style + science/data-backed + enthusiasm is helping me to (finally) put the exercise in. I don't know if I'll ever not-hate the Norwegian 4x4's... but this 50+ y/o scientist is *very* grateful for your work. Thank you for what you do!

      I've been trying hard to successfully do 4x4's. I've done 2x2's. Plenty of 1x1's. Even managed a 3x3 one time...and was absolutely gassed afterwards. 4x4's just seems impossible, but that's probably because I'm not appropriately downregulating my effort level as I approach the 4 minute mark. My heart rate peaks, but I keep trying to go all out, and so instead of doing 80-85%, I'm redlining at 95-99% until I give up. What's wild is even doing 2x2's or a couple of 3x3's has been enough to see remarkable change in everything. I wonder if 5x5 will be the next step after 4x4, or if 4x4 is a sweet spot.

    I'll be 59 next month and still get carded to buy alcohol. I've been told since my mid 20's to now that I look at least 15-20 yrs younger. So it's really funny when you speak about the research done on "50" yr Olds, like 50 is so old. I would be more impressed and surprised if you said 70. Most of my friends in their mid 50's are athletes and pro bicyclists, riding 60 miles + a day. 50 is not the same biologically that it was even 10 yrs ago. Like everything we've evolved.

      But, to my knowledge - we s/b doing couple, few days a week -sessions of high intensity (sprints, or equivalent) somewhere around 10-30 secs. Rest btw. spurts - repeat.
      But 4mins ALL OUT? Hard to believe she's recommending that length of time (for a sprint).

    weight training to failure is about as required as eating to vomiting.
    Purposely invoking high adrenalin and norepinephrine's with vigorous exercise and the massive dump of cortisol to put out that internal fire is counter to longevity. Its an aging cofactor.
    I've never met a gym junkie to date who has lived an extraordinary longer life than the rest of us due to rigorous train to failure exercise.
    get up, take a walk every day, the most natural obligated exercise there is and stretch your limbs through full range of motions. Movements the body expects to be able to make but are mostly regulated not important compared to the ascetic appeal of larger skeletal muscles or thin hips that only stay as long as you can apply the pressure to them.
    The body wants homeostasis and returns to it as soon as you stop stressing it with compound movements that have little to do with required movement and required flexibility.
    we all just repeat the same old stuff in different ways by an evolving ring of experts hoping for a better outcome that only lasts as long as you can tolerate it. hardly a routine to live by ........

I can tell you that when I go all-out on this, the bike is at risk of toppling over and I tank out before 20 seconds is over. Not sure about doing this 6 times and at 40seconds. I'll be 57 tomorrow so I'm not sure what my max heart rate is anymore beyond the best-guess equation everyone uses. Maybe the CAROL people can come up with one of these workouts.
