Hyperbaric oxygen therapy and the brain: memory, attention, brain fog
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy supports the brain through more oxygen dissolved in the blood and better cerebral blood flow, and randomised studies show improvements in attention, processing speed and b...
Deep sleep and the glymphatic system: how the brain cleans itself at night
The glymphatic system is the network through which the brain eliminates its waste, and it works hardest during deep sleep. Find out what the studies show about how the brain cleans itself at night,...
VO2 max: the strongest predictor of longevity and how to increase it
VO2 max is the maximum amount of oxygen your body can use and one of the strongest predictors of longevity. Find out what the studies show, how much it declines with age, how to raise it with inter...
Red light for the brain: intranasal photobiomodulation, anxiety and sleep
Intranasal photobiomodulation brings red light and near-infrared to within a few centimetres of the base of the brain, by a route that bypasses a large part of the skull bone. Find out what the stu...
Hyperbaric oxygen: what it is and how oxygen reaches every cell
Hyperbaric oxygen means oxygen breathed at a pressure higher than atmospheric pressure, so that it dissolves directly into the plasma and reaches hard-to-access tissues. Find out how a hyperbaric c...
How much protein after 40: muscle, the organ of longevity
After 40, muscle needs more protein: at least 1.0-1.2 g per kilogram of body weight per day, split into meals of 25-30 g. Find out what the studies show about sarcopenia and longevity, and how red ...
