Wasting syndrome (cachexia) driven by low metabolism/NAD+; can be blocked/reversed
One of those articles that fully corroborates Ray’s views that metabolism is central not only to “function”,…
Age-related inflammation driven by declining mitochondrial function; menopause likely reversible
Yet another study demonstrating the key role metabolism plays in aspects of health firmly considered by medicine…
Mitochondria are alive and interchangeable across species, may explain differences in intelligence across latter
Just a quick post that suggests once again that metabolism is the key determinant of intelligence and…
ROS (elevated by fat oxidation) drive immune dysfunction in cancer; vitamin E may help
Yet another study demonstrating that metabolism controls an aspect of physiology so far considered largely independent of…
PUFA is incompatible with and directly toxic to mammalian mitochondria
This is one of the few studies that presents direct and largely indisputable biochemical evidence for the…
Oxidative metabolism reflects our biological age, metabolic dysfunction drives frailty/aging
In several of his articles, Ray discussed the non-specific “syndrome of being sick” -i.e. looking and feeling…
Anti-depressant drugs (SSRI) cause heart defects/disease by inhibiting oxidative metabolism
I am amazed by the number of already published studies that openly admit that SSRI drugs have…
Low OXPHOS is a biomarker and likely cause of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD)
The evidence that IBD conditions such as Crohn’s Disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC) are of mitochondrial…
Mitochondrial dysfunction prevents apoptosis and drives inflammation
Yet another study, which demonstrates the inseparable link between metabolism and “structural” problems such as cellular integrity…
Blocking cortisol extends lifespan more than rapamycin, by improving mitochondrial function
Yet another confirmation that cortisol, while being life-saving in acute stress situations, can shorten lifespan if chronically…
