AMPK and its agonist, berberine, can combat some underlying events of neurodegeneration
Curcumin, a compound found in turmeric, has anti-aging effects by the inhibition of mTORC1 activity
Amino acids yield lower amounts of ATP than glucose as they enter the energy production cycle later in the process
The presence of high levels of fat in the diet can inhibit the absorption of carbohydrates, while high levels of fiber (non-digestible carbs) can interfere with the absorption of fat
Eating a low protein diet can help to reduce the amount of excess nitrogen in the body and minimize the burden on the urea cycle
