Siim Land: Glycine and Cancer Risk, The Health Priorities That Actually Matter, and More – Q&A
Peer-Reviewed Research
Key Takeaways
- Prioritize V2 max training – Aim for >50 mL/kg/min to significantly reduce mortality risk (up to 4x lower vs. low V2 max).
- Reduce visceral fat – Keep below 300g (optimal <250g) via DEXA/MRI scans; directly linked to organ health.
- Boost omega-3 index – Target 8-12% (like Japan) via seafood/fish intake or algae supplements; lowers dementia/heart disease risk.
- Lower inflammation – Monitor CRP levels (lower within “normal” range = better); key for chronic disease prevention.
Supplements & Protocols Mentioned
- Omega-3 supplements – Use if seafood intake is low; prioritize DHA/EPA forms.
Notable Quotes
“Smoking is associated with up to 13,000% increased risk of lung cancer… compared to breathing polluted air, it’s insanely more harmful.”
Bottom Line
Focus first on V2 max, visceral fat, omega-3s, and inflammation – these move the needle far more than minor lifestyle optimizations like avoiding plastic bottles.
