20:00 cancer & longevity - early detection & metabolic health as the two key pillars
35:00 fasting & importance of strength training during fasts. Fasting vs muscle loss.
43:00 diet. The three levers - caloric, time & dietary restriction. Always pull one, sometimes two or three - never pull none.
1:15 cholesterol - why we need it, how it works, which cholesterol is bad & why. How to measure it.
1:35 Rapamycin & health/lifespan
1:48 how kidneys work. High throughput, 25% of cardiac output. Works like 'throwing out the cupboard' and reabsorbing desired nutrients
