Hey LongeCity community, 

 

It would be awesome if we had a thread where people could share videos you've come across on YouTube (or other platforms) that are right up the alley of forum members. Stuff on longevity, health-span, anti-aging science, biohacking, research, supplements, hormesis... I think you get the idea. 

 

If you watch something cool, feel free to share the link here. And if you’re up for it, give a quick summary or key ideas. Videos could be a podcast, a lecture, shorts whatever - just something that made you think!

 

It would be a great way for us all to discover fresh content without the algorithm totally biasing what we see.

This is a really great explanation of lp(a) and it's threshold for cardiovascular risk. Personally, my lp(a) was measured for the first time earlier this year and came back at 57 mg/dl.

Lean Mass Hyper Responders (LMHR) - Everything that could go wrong, has gone wrong.

 

This video from Dr. Brad Standfield looks at the KETO-CTA study which analyzed LMHR – these are people which have a pattern of high LDL, high HDL, and low triglycerides.  It tends to occur in lean, generally healthy individuals who select a low carbohydrate diet. This study looked at the % change in non-calcified coronary plaque volume and the results aren’t looking good. I’d encourage everyone to take a look.

This video gives amazing insight into Michael's routine. It's fascinating to see his daily routine being filmed by Sierra Clark (in the comfort of his 700 sq/ft apartment). There's a lot covered including:

• Weighing his food and tracking it
• His rationale for a number of food choices 
• Food cooking, prep, and "Gorilla style" eating
• Parts of his 2 x 90 minute per week workout
• Meal timing, calories, and BMI
• Volume eating and cheat days
• Social media use and pop culture

It followed over 100 000 people for about 30 years and looked at what was associated with healthy aging and more. It includes a very informative heat map.
