A 2017 RCT study I found examined the effects either moderate-intensity continuous training (MICT) compared to high-intensity interval training among alder adults (mean age 64) to determine how different exercise variables improve arterial elasticity since large artery stiffness predisposes older adults to cardiovascular diseases (Kim et al., 2017). Addressing (and preventing) arterial stiffness is a major goal for reducing CVD risk. Previously demonstrated in another study b

Over a decade ago I began to experiment with time-restricted feeding. Initially it was due to chronic GI and throat issues. For several years for most of the day I felt like something was stuck in my throat and randomly have deep painful pressure in my chest deep to the sternum. For about two years I visited several doctors like ENT’s and GI specialists, even an had and endoscopy and barium swallow with no findings.

The metabolic disorder of type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM2) will be discussed for this post. DM2 affects over 27 million people in the USA and often can have sequalae of dyslipidemia, hypertension, heart disease, kidney disease, neuropathy and obesity comorbidities (Dunford & Doyle, 2019). DM2 is the resulting cascade of insulin resistance resulting in the body’s inability to transport and shuttle glucose into the cells which leads to proinflammatory proteins and fasting blood g
