Mindsip insights from this episode:
Boost testosterone levels with TMG during training
In multiple studies where participants did intense workouts, the group taking TMG saw significant increases in their testosterone levels compared to the placebo group.
Limit TMG dosage to manage cholesterol levels
Be aware that higher doses of TMG, around 4 grams or more, can increase total cholesterol levels, which is why a lower dose of 500mg may be preferable.
Evaluate TMG effects alongside NMN for performance benefits
The benefits people feel from taking NMN supplements could actually be from the TMG often taken alongside it, as TMG has stronger current evidence for improving performance.
Combine TMG with intense exercise for optimal muscle performance
TMG is not a magic pill and seems to provide the most significant muscle performance benefits when it is combined with intense, high-powered exercise.
Lower homocysteine levels with TMG to reduce dementia risk
By lowering high levels of homocysteine, which is a strong risk factor for Alzheimer's, TMG supplements may help reduce the risk of developing dementia.
Address homocysteine levels before omega-3 supplementation for brain health
Omega-3 supplements only improved brain performance and reduced dementia symptoms in people who already had low homocysteine levels, suggesting homocysteine must be addressed first.
