Mindsip insights from this episode:
Take omega-3 supplements to lower heart attack risk by 28%
The VITAL trial demonstrated that taking omega-3 supplements led to a 28% reduction in the risk of heart attacks.
Prioritize Zone 2 exercise to reduce injury risk over HIIT
It is probably better to focus on Zone 2 exercise, where you can still hold a conversation, as high-intensity interval training (HIIT) significantly increases your chance of injury.
Maintain GLP-1 medication to prevent weight regain
When patients stop taking GLP-1 medications like Ozempic, their hunger hormones return, and most regain a significant amount of the weight they lost.
Minimize muscle loss on GLP-1s with resistance exercise
Muscle loss on GLP-1 medications is the same as with any other weight loss strategy and can be minimized by focusing on resistance exercise.
Maintain LDL cholesterol below 50-60 mg/dL to prevent blockages
The PISA study suggests that blockages can develop in blood vessels if LDL cholesterol levels are above 50-60 mg/dL.
Aim for optimal LDL cholesterol levels similar to newborns
There is a suggestion in scientific literature that the optimal LDL cholesterol level is probably the level present at birth, between 20 to 40 mg/dL.
Get ApoB test to assess all blockage-causing particles
To capture all the particles that contribute to blockages in your blood vessels, you should get an ApoB blood test instead of just a standard LDL test.
