But never neglect the “hidden” emotional and psychological risk factors that contribute to the development of heart disease as surely as smoking, a high-sugar diet, stress, high blood pressure, and lack of exercise do.”

“As far as I’m concerned, high school sucked when I went, and probably sucks now. I tend to regard people who remember it as the best four years of their lives with caution and a degree of pity.

“All big things come from small beginnings. The seed of every habit is a single, tiny decision.21 But as that decision is repeated, a habit sprouts and grows stronger. Roots entrench themselves and branches grow. The task of breaking a bad habit is like uprooting a powerful oak within us. And the task of building a good habit is like cultivating a delicate flower one day at a time.”

“Activate adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK). AMPK is an enzyme that stimulates mitochondrial autophagy (mitophagy) and mitochondrial biogenesis as well as five other critically important pathways: insulin, leptin, mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR), insulin-like growth factor 1, and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma co-activator 1-alpha (PPAR⊠). It also increases nerve growth factor and helps protect against the type of oxidative stress that leads to Parkinson’s disease. Your AMPK levels naturally decline with increasing age. Following a cyclical ketogenic diet will help you maintain healthy AMPK levels.”
