    Fasting/exercise/lowcarb/keto may promote cancer (melanoma) metastasis

    Quite the title for this post, but I think the evidence from the study below is clear. Namely, chronic activation of the so-called "master metabolic sensor" AMPK is a key mechanism through which melanoma cells rewire their metabolism from higher into lower OXPHOS, change their physical structure...

    Coffee Diterpenes Have A Metformin-Like Anti-Diabetic Action

    My previous post highlighted the pathological mTOR-mediated aerobic glycolysis caused by endotoxin, so I thought it should be balanced with an example of glycolysis-boosting when oxidative phosphorylation is unimpaired. The experiment looked both in vitro and in vivo at the effects of kahweol, a...

    Fasting causes aging by energy depletion, vitamin B2 can stop it

    Well, if this title does not rile up the fasting crowd, I don't know what will:-) Aside from that controversy, it is actually a great study that not only suggests a dirt cheap and widely available option for retarding aging, but once again demonstrates that stress (e.g. fasting) directly causes...

    Maintenance Of Red Blood Cell Integrity By AMP-activated Protein Kinase α1 Catalytic Subunit

    http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0014579310005995 Abstract AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) plays a pivotal role in regulating cellular energy metabolism. We previously showed that AMPKα1−/− mice develop moderate anemia associated with splenomegaly and high reticulocytosis...

    Methylene Blue (MB) Reverses Fatty Liver Disease

    This study was in mice, but the results were so positive that the authors are working in setting up a clinical trial of methylene blue for the treatment of fatty liver disease - a condition that afflicts approximately 40%-60% of the population in the USA. Many Peatarians also struggle with poor...
