Mindsip insights from this episode:
Prioritize pharmaceuticals over peptides for cellular health issues
Pharmaceuticals will work regardless of cellular health, whereas peptides are less effective in older individuals whose cellular 'factory' is less able to respond.
Utilize high-dose lithium for emotional stability
A pharmaceutical dose of 75-150mg of lithium, much higher than in nootropic supplements, can noticeably turn down stress and stabilize mood.
Enhance microvascular health with pentoxifylline
The phosphodiesterase inhibitor Pentoxifylline increases blood flow to microvasculature, decreases blood viscosity, and makes cells more deformable to combat capillary death.
Take NAD supplement mid-afternoon to optimize circadian rhythm
To optimize your circadian rhythm, the best time to take an NAD supplement is mid-afternoon, halfway between your light and dark cycle.
Utilize flozen drugs to excrete glucose through urine
The 'flozen' family of drugs (e.g., Canagliflozin) are sodium-glucose reuptake inhibitors that block your kidneys from reabsorbing glucose, causing you to excrete it in urine.
Utilize Pioglitazone to mimic fasting and reduce visceral fat
The drug Pioglitazone mobilizes harmful visceral fat and moves it into subcutaneous compartments, which is a sign of youthfulness and reduces a cause of death.
Mimic sauna benefits for brain health with Celebex
A drug called Celebex (Selbex), approved in Japan for gastritis, upregulates heat shock proteins, mimicking a key benefit of sauna use for brain health.
Utilize Hydralazine to block glucose absorption post-meal
The blood pressure medication Hydralazine is a powerful transglycosylating agent that can bond to glucose after a meal, allowing you to urinate it out.
