English Summary
The RDA of 0.8 g/kg/day prevents deficiency; it does not optimize body composition or aging. Target 1.6–2.2 g/kg/day split across 3–4 meals of 30–40 g, each providing ≥2.5 g leucine to maximally trigger muscle protein synthesis. Women, especially perimenopausal, are most underdosed at breakfast.

English Summary
Fiber intake of 30–50 g/day and ≥30 distinct plant foods per week predict microbiome diversity, SCFA production, and 15–30% reductions in all-cause mortality. Dietary fiber outperforms probiotic supplements because it feeds the resident microbiota that already lives in you.

English Summary
EPA + DHA at 2–4 g/day (or 2–3 servings of fatty fish per week) is one of the few supplements with strong RCT support for cardiovascular and cognitive endpoints. Choose high-concentration, non-oxidized fish oil, target an Omega-3 Index ≥ 8%, and remember plant ALA converts poorly to EPA/DHA.

检查现有鱼油标签,算每粒实际 EPA+DHA 总量。本周安排 2 次三文鱼或沙丁鱼晚餐。若不吃鱼,订一份 Omega-3 Index 家用检测,作为长期决策的客观基线。

English Summary
Chronic hyperinsulinemia, not sugar per se, drives metabolic dysfunction. Cap added sugar (< 25 g/day), eliminate sugar-sweetened beverages, flatten post-prandial glucose with food order and a 15-min post-meal walk. Track HOMA-IR; CGM provides a personalized lens.
