@@GoblinUrNuts All I can say is due to the rigidity of the nature of those studies you'd better off following the general advice for healthy drinking to maximise the most benefits I.e.: Drink it in moderation (a glass a day), never after exercise, drink with food, you *can* drink in the morning (Google the morning benefits), make sure It is a good healthy brand (
Didn’t get any morning sunlight for over 20 YEARS and struggled with depression and poor sleep for most of my adult life. Discovered this podcast and decided to try getting morning sunlight for 10 minutes every day because why the hell not, it can’t hurt. One month later, I’m noticeably happier and more cheerful, and I’m sleeping better. Andrew, that one piece of advice had a more profound effect on my mental health than my therapist did. I hope you know that you’re literally saving the lives of people around the world!
I just love how concise you are in your podcasts, it's an hour and a half of one relevant piece of info after another. I quit most podcasts because they waste so much time going off topic, joking and what not.
That's true. Mostly at end it's just some stories, narration and no ideas to remember or apply. We have enought narration going within the mind.. This one stand out.
I absolutely agree, I gave up all other health, science podcasts because I want to be able to learn & absorb all the wealth of knowledge that Andrew Huberman teaches with such ease . What a find! I'm so grateful for this really helpful data.
When Dr. Huberman is like, "... and thank you for your interest in science." Ummmmm hold up dude. THANK YOU FOR PROVIDING ZERO COST TO CONSUMER INFORMATION ABOUT SCIENCE AND SCIENCE-RELATED TOOLS TO THE GENERAL PUBLIC!! My interest is sparked and fulfilled by your podcast. Keep it up and I will do the same!! Can't wait for the episode on concussions!! Hope you have a croissant in the near future ;)
Haha 😂 he makes me want to have a chocolate croissant! Concussions and traumatic brain injuries (tbi) would be awesome and personal for me. I hope to see some content on that also.
Right. Thank God for Dr. Huberman. I have a neurological issue called cluster headaches and my neurologist says it can't be good for the brain to keep having these extreme pains and we don't know the effects long term. So I'm trying to take care of my body and brain hoping it will heal. I also try to stay active mentally. Learn something everyday. I have background in finance and banking supervision so I do need help when it comes to understanding medical science and Dr Huberman makes it so easy by linking all the good research. I can't express how thankful I am.
I think we can participate in optimizing his capacity- by learning in 10-20” gaps over time= exponential gain over time. I Love learning when it comes yo this podcast
@@niurkarosa Just wrote the same before seeing this... I get the feeling people w/ TBI (like myself) have different brain function as far as processing food/supplements... Sometimes I get the feeling I am forging paths to "work around" the injury which is located in the temporal lobe area... It's almost like trying to reach a destination and the "bridge has been washed out" requiring me to find an alternate route to accomplish simple decision making processes.
@@zeynand4039 There was a guy I call the Niacin Guru on Twitter that had documented cases indicating that a protocol of 500 mg - 1G of FULL FLUSH NIACIN + 500mg Niacinamide coupled w/ 10-20MG OF MELATONIN obliterates cluster headaches... The "Burn" takes some getting used to, but the optimal dosage can be reached incrementally which will help you to adjust to the flush...
Pretty much...I am 68 and all you young people out there have the time element on your side to gain pretty cool knowledge about physiology and how to implement and try out what he recommends...Cool Shit for certain....use it people.
I have been taking phosphatidylserine for about a year. I am 72. I had noticed problems finding words and forgetting odd things. It only took a short amount of time I truly noticed a huge difference!
I am officially hooked : I can’t recall what life was like before I discovered the Huberman Lab. Thank you so much for sharing the knowledge, experiments and findings . So fascinating & I love your sense of humour . You are a phenomenal speaker . Let’s clone you … thank you so much . Amazing . Grateful follower … taking the info on board . Thanks 🙏🏻. Lina
@@funtimes8296 please check out rich rolls episode with him to know for first 30 mins of the podcast about what he has been through to be what he is. It gives hope ..and also i love him so much
This is one of the best and most applicable talks I’ve heard so far with direct implications on health coaching. The concept of the role of the insula connects directly to current concepts about enteroception and chronic pain. This may be a good topic for future discussion. A study just released on pain reprocessing therapy and neuroplastic pain speaks to this.
Greetings from Finland! This podcast has been such an eye opener. I've got so many new tools to manage my circadian rythm for example. Andrew you are true rockstar of science. And a good humour too. I find myself rather often chuckling which is rare.
I think my life has changed a lot for the better after discovering this podcast. Thank you Dr. Huberman for putting this great work together for the general public. 👍👍
Italian 🇮🇹. I discovered Huberman podcasts "by accident". I'm always been interested in science, in psychology and now i am also interested in neuroscience. Thanks to Dr Huberman to divulgate these kind of information FOR FREE and in a very professional and scientific manner. And guys... This man can speak for two hours in a row without be redundant, without any difficulties and without annoying the public. I think it's because he's competent and completely passionate about the matter. Well done, i say 👏
You have a phenomenal understanding of the brain, the ability to convey such complexities in such a simple form is a true gift. I had one doctor who unfortunately passed away with similar understanding, and I always thought it a shame for humanity when most of his research ended, without much exposure to the outer world. Thank you for sharing these not only for now, but for those who may need it later.
The last 20 minutes or so tie together a mechanism for conditioning nearly any association with dopamine reward - BRILLIANT!!! The ability to intentionally wire behaviors/associations with neurological reward, or rewire maladaptive habits/behaviors, is priceless. Thank you for connecting the dots.
Just here to mention that the suggestion of pinch of salt with a glass of water in the morning from last week's episode has paid huge dividends for me already. I had struggled with what seemed like some kind of neural fatigue for a while now, sodium seems to have immediately fixed that! Also, it greatly impacted my REM sleep according to my Oura ring - I get the same amounts of REM in 7 hours of sleep that I used to need 9 hours for! And this directly results in better cognitive performance during the day, as I had a day where I slept less than 7 hours (and REM was also less according to my Oura that day), so I was immediately brain fogged again.
I missed that episode Can you pls clarify a bit more About salt + water thing , since I feel fatigued in the morning as well Shall one take it in the morning right after one wakes up ? The water must be hot or cold or lukewarm ? Appreciate if you could elaborate a bit
@@akshaynarwadkar5264 There's a lot of information out there on salt helping the adrenal glands. No difference on water temperature, though warmer water can help raise body temperature which helps wakefulness. Add as much salt as you can tolerate. I add potassium citrate as well. Some people like lemon juice as well. I use mineral water or seltzer personally. Cheers. Been doing this for about 6 years now.
This is absolutely brilliant. The extreme intelligence and deep insightfulness of Andrew is so readily apparent. I nominate him for supreme ruler of the galaxy.
After I got acquainted with these excellent Huberman Podcasts, I hv been wondering what can I learn from nuroscience about the biggest problem of my life, Stutterering. I can't talk fluently. My speech consists of unintentional blocks, prolongations and repetitions. It's super frustrating being a teenager and not being able to raise my voice. Definitely there's something wrong in my brain's left hemisphere. Some people say it's just a bad habit of talking which I have practiced for a long time. May be that's true. May be I have developed some new neural circuits which is only allowing me to speak this broken way. May be a part of my brain has been changed its shape and now I am a stutterer. However, being optimistic, I'm hoping to be able to adopt some new ways to talk properly. I'm only 20 so I believe my brain is highly plastic and I can make some positive changes in it regarding my speech.
Thank you Andrew for the effort you have put in to this podcast. Your episode on dopamine control is perhaps the single most useful piece of 2 hour information I have ever come across. Some months ago I stopped snusing (Swedish nicotine products) and I have managed to regulate the time I spend on social media, TH-cam, movies and other fun but somewhat procrastinaty activities. Stuff still draws me in of course but I now feel like I have a tool to counter it. When I find myself get sucked in I stop and do a mental check. Do I really need this dopamine-release right now? Or should I refrain from doing the activity and instead put my mind to something else? It has really helped me man. I have loads more energy to distribute on the activities and pursuits that mean a lot to me! So thank you and I hope you keep up or even improve the quality of this awesome podcast! From 🇸🇪 with ❤️ Btw, I have a few questions regarding dopamine and dopamine control. If you would be interested in taking a stab at them I’ll send them to you.
Thank you Dr. Huberman, team, sponsors and supporters. I love reading through the comments where my questions are answered. ☀️ EPISODE 48-1 MILLION SUBSCRIBERS!!!
Just want to let you know Andrew, that I'm so grateful to be able to enjoy your podcast. It's clear you put a lot of work into these, and it does not go unnoticed! I learn so much from every episode. The detailed explanations you give about how various facets of the brain and body work really scratch that itch I have to understand more about myself and the world. Also, the actionable steps you outline give me the capability to put my new found knowledge to practical use immediately. I really appreciate everything you do, and I look forward to what you'll create next!
Dr Huberman , you have no idea how much I appreciate the fact you given us all needed information and all the possible options for obtaining them Without trying to sell us some products you make , your service to humanity is much appreciated and you have our love and blessings for being a great human being ❤️🙏🏽
I overcome the "yuck" response by saying a prayer before eating. I thank Grandmother Earth for providing me this food which will nourish my body and improve my health and well-being. It works because I feel thankful for what I am consuming. If this or other tips helps anyone else who is reading this please share..🙏 Thanks
@@niurkarosa no judgements, no judgements, but what about the victims. If the victim would be a human things would be different. Hence, cannibals are judged by being crazy.
@@veganioan I was going to just ignore ur comment but I want to honor myself. And well the way I see things is that.. I AM the message, not the messenger. And I set an example, then others can follow. I know that at least 7 people in my inner circle have become either vegetarian or vegan by seeing my 17 year journey with food and Holistic lifestyle. And as with Professor Huberman, he doesn't seem to judge us for being ignorant about wrong breathing and eating habits. He is just teaching those who are open to learning and making an effort to educate ourselves. Like I said before, no judgments. Nobody wants to be judged and less likely to open up to learning. All the best to everyone on the journey 🙏
I wish podcasts transforming people's health and well-being were accessible in as many languages as possible. Understanding our brain is a fantastic opportunity for change in so many directions. Thank you for showing me this opportunity.
I listen to your podcast all the time. I cut down on listening so much news and rather enjoy listening to your podcast instead. Thank you for sharing all the wonderful topics you bring to us. It has helped me a lot.
Let them be kids to adventure,to learn how to socialize,to get the fuck outside and be kind and firm with them...I would keep religious beliefs away from them until their own curiosity drives them to seek. Feed em good nutrient dense food....Sports and music training if you can afford it and they are curious....that's a good start from my sideline...Be well folks.
@@markwallinger5801 Agreed but avoid brain injury in sports, particularly head butting footballs. It is known to have detrimental affects on brain health and function
The future of healing is right on our doorsteps. Please bring the Medical Medium , Anthony William onto your Podcast. He needs more and more of the good Drs, we all do. Thankyou for the work you do i appreciate you.
mind blown on the fact that artificial sweetener + blood glucose increasing food lead to later insulin secretion in response to artificial sweetener alone. biology!
Thank you for providing such relevant information for us clinicians trying to help our patients- I use your teachings all the time when working with people trying to improve their health 😉 it’s incredible how people respond to Frank scientific information
I read the study it’s interesting but the blood response graphs appear to improve insulin sensitivity post glucose but also increase fasting insulin. I don’t understand how a more acute response is supposed to be worse (as this usually signals better insulin sensitivity so my only thought is the graph is mislabeled? There aren’t tables included to confirm or deny what’s shown.). Further if you look at the box plots there is least variability in the combined group but different people had really different responses both above and below the mean so this might be one to self-study if you use artificial sweeteners…
@@caseyj9 Not sure if I understand you correctly. I believe you are talking about the graphs that show increased insulin in the combo group? Increased insulin level (production) in response to the same amount of sugar consumption, which means insulin is not doing the job (decreasing blood glucose) properly, thus decreased insulin sensitivity.
@@giraffecolor5681 yes that’s what I was referring to- did you look at it? That would be the case if it remained high, but it still decreased quickly which is what you want for insulin sensitivity. If you have more thoughts on it definitely lmk I’m here to learn but I also think a lot of great scientists don’t look super thoroughly at the math to see if the discussions match what the numbers show, so I always read them myself
I had a hemageratic stroke in December I don't currently have use of my left arm and leg. I'm making progress. And I wanted to let you know how helpful a lot of your content has been to me. Thank you very much
As a person with Parkinson’s (PWP) I’d really love a video on PD and unconventional methods of addressing the symptoms and the only current typical end point of deep brain brain stimulation (a kind of pacemaker for the brain.) thanks for you videos!
Phosphphatidylserine - I supplement with it. Started after my doc had me start using it. Did not know the benefits of it on brain function until this video. I noticed immediately after I started it, I had less aches and pains and stiffness in the body. I read it should be taken with turmeric and omega 3, so I also do that. Glad to hear that I’m also benefitting my brain! I loved this supplement after feeling the immediate effects on my body and now love it even more!

Thanks to you I started taking an Omega 3 EPA supplement about a month ago. While not entirely resolved, it has minimized my depression symptoms significantly. Thanks for sharing your expertise and this small tip is life changing.
TH-cam delivers a huge quantity of value with these channels from differents fields, built by smart and talented people like Andrew Huberman. It is like an expensive University without paying. Thank you for great work!
The explanation that connects diet sodas to insulin is the best I’ve heard, the fact that diet soda once paired with glucose increasing foods can later and by itself cause the secretion of insulin without blood sugar is mind blowing. thank you!
I have a Bachelor’s in Languages for Sales, and am pursuing a Master’s in Food Marketing and Sales. It’s not a science intensive path, and Dr. Huberman sparked my interest in neurology so much that I am contacting my Food Quality professor to start a research for my thesis that can link food marketing with a salutigenic approach to neurology and health optimization through food. It’s big because without Huberman I would have probably just done the classic thesis on some marketing stuff instead of this, which I deem more impactful for consumers and businesses in the industry. I also was going to get a job in a normal food company, but after this renewed interest in health science, I am considering to approach the health industry instead. Incredible how some TH-cam videos you come across randomly can change your path so much!! Thank you for your work to you and your whole team.
Thank you Dr. Huberman! You are helping me and undoubtedly countless others with this podcast. I have been searching for the most recent information to help my parents fight cognitive decline during the constant lockdowns. Any further recommended sources greatly appreciated!
Any kind of social interaction and music included was the biggest for my GPs. Consider l-methylfolate / 5-mthf, (most active form of folate) good for depression and folic acid deficiencies are common in the elderly, not to mention 60% of people have genes that lead to struggles with converting folate into usable form, hence why you need the expensive kind and not the folic acid from Jamieson,
Thank you Dr Huberman, I'm a s-TBI Survivor and was in a coma for 5 months, GC scale of 5 ~ I try to be Natrulpathic in my recovery and will share this with my TBI support group.
Dr Huberman, thank you for sharing health science in such a dynamic and concise platform. I would (and many others) would appreciate greatly if one subject you could tackle is the gut microbiome and autoimmune diseases which plagues our world insidiously. 😎
Although I have been working from home, I allow myself to be tethered to my computer without putting nutrition or rather eating in general on my to do list. I recently started crashing around 2pm on the daily, but this topic reminded me of the importance of nutrition which I need to be more mindful of especially as I age. Since listening to this particular subject I've put the nutrients first and no longer crashing. The nutrient tools you provide here are quite simple but TOO easily neglected. Thank you for all you do, Andrew Huberman!

Dear Prof. Huberman, In your give example wouldn't kale eaten alone (after conditioning with foods that raise blood glucose/ highly glyciemic foods) then also increase insulin release?
Awesome content like always. Really interesting. When are you going to do a series of podcast on TBI, post-tbi, concussion? Could you please include post concussion visual syndrome? And solutions to fix it? Im 2.5years into my 4th mild TBI and still having post concussion visual syndrome despite doing neuro-rehab exercices for 1.5years. Dr don’t really know what to do with me now… but I’m positive there are solutions and I’m still working hard to improve.
You’re my #1 podcast. You have beaten out Dr David eagleman 😊 As a brain tumor survivor and an A type. And now a Neuro geek. I am living truth that the brain heals amazly with Neuro plasticity. Thank you for all you do to share yours and others knowledge so I can be an engaged patient. Especially your take on nutrition and supplements- this is a missed opportunity in patient recovery.
Thank you for all your work. You mentioned you will do a series on PTSD? Would that include complex PTSD i.e. when sufferers were exposed to ongoing, sometimes years long, traumatic events?
I went plant based after we a second cancer diagnosis.. I am in remission, but lately have experienced an inflammation feeling in my head. Your food section was very informative! I would love to see “what you eat in a day” . Thank you for sharing!
I'd love an episode on migraines. I suffer from chronic migraines and cluster headaches, I possibly know where they're coming from thanks to an MRI and I have them under control thru fasting but when I'm doing long hours that I need to focus my eyes on something I feel "soreness" in the back of my eyes which is the feeling I get at the start of a migraine so I tend to freak out. I don't know how to explain it better. Are there any exercises to help the eyes "rest better/faster"?
This is so fantastic! Thank you! I wonder if any research has been done on how chemo and radiation on the various parts of the digestive system (specifically colon cancer) impact the neuropod receptors. I ask this because as a person treated with these chemicals and processes, my digestion doesn’t make sense to me anymore. It would be great to have a better understanding of the physical mechanisms impacted. Maybe someone like me could positively counteract the overall impact of the treatment. Maybe it’s as “simple” as ingesting more fermented foods. Thanks, as always. Honestly, your work is a God-send.
I have only 1/2 a gut after two colon cancer resections. I do my best to manage my biome etc but honestly. It’s a mystery what “sets it off” on horrible symptoms, or doesn’t. I just try to follow the advice and ignore any discomfort!
No words can pay you justice. Dr. Huberman; Thank for all your science sharing. Every Video of yours has contributed to make my life better (and the people around me), especially your video about Dopamine, it made all the sense and me understand my cravings in a better way, on the long run, understanding Dopamine will improve my business significantly. Thank you.
hey man! thanks for changing my life. i feel amazing and full of energy now, and my skin and health are amazing now thanks to sleep, salt, exercise, sunlight, electrolytes, proper food and supplements. however one weird thing thats happened to me now that I've become healthy for a whole month is that I feel as though my creativity has been blunted. Is this effect temporary? i feel almost like im on chemical antidepressants even though im not. All day long I feel compelled to just do nonstop work, study, cleaning and chores with autistic/military precision. i have a healthy routine now, but my brain no longer feels the desire to waste time working on my hobby/crrative/art/programming projects anymore. back when I was severely deficient in electrolytes and nutrients as well as calories, my physical health was horrible and i was full of anxiety... but being unhealthy made me super creative and full of ideas. back when I was super deficient and unhealthy, i used to avoid doing chores and instead i was creative all day to the detriment of my adult responsibilities. now that I'm healthy though, I am super productive and focused on chores and work and relationships and important thing and i have no deaire to waste time being creative. is this normal?
Fascinating! Thanks Dr Huberman for sharing your knowledge in such a way that makes a complex subject easy to understand. Priceless! A gift by itself. Starting with the setting which is so relaxing to watch, each of your talks are fascinating as it incorporates many important elements to help your audience discover the wonders of how the brain functions in relation with the body! Brilliant!
I rarely consume sucralose but I drink fair amount of diet drinks which contains aspartame. I briefly scanned through the reference paper: "Short-term consumption of sucralose with, but not without, carbohydrate impairs neural and metabolic sensitivity to sugar in humans - Dalenberg et al" to see if they mentioned anything in regards to aspartame. Luckily, it seems like aspartame is the least likely to impair metabolic sensitivity to sugar compared to sucralose and ace-K: "One reason why aspartame may produce less effects on incretins and glucose absorption is that it is rapidly metabolized in the small intestine and would therefore have less opportunity to bind to taste receptor cells or glucose transporters"
Dr.Huberman, as a fellow citizen of the U.S. I am extremely thankful and blessed that you and people like you are doing the job I feel practitioners either don’t know about or don’t like talking about because it’s so much data. Plus, from my experience, those doctors would rather get paid an extra cost rather than explaining the inner workings of the chemical processes within the body. (My doctor is such a bastard and doesn’t explain anything to me) I wish more family practitioners were like you. Please don’t stop the podcast you have so much vital information and know so many good doctors. Thank you, from a person to a person, you have saved my life.
Yes! I can relate to so much of this episode but, particularly around 56:00 in about the rewiring preference of taste and the reward system. I have been fat and then in really good shape 2x in my life. Both times I was able to rewire my pleasure responses from bad foods to healthier foods because of how I relate the positivity in the end result. Now I really don't care for sweet unless it's mild and natural, but I highly prefer healthy foods, and yes it takes time, but like you said in previous episodes on dopamine, once you delay gratification and rethink the reward system, foods that are healthy taste amazing. I have been preaching this to my loved ones for years, and another bonus perk, when you said things that further establish your belief system make you stimulate dopamine, that is true! All this gets me pumped and not only for me, but I was able to convince my GF who did the diet and exercise w me. She has seen through the hard work and from my word that things have changed in her brain!
Thank you so much Dr. Huberman. I think many would be interested in an episode on nutrition for optimal human development. Foods to eat or feed our children as well as foods for women for a healthy pregnancy and healthy fetus development.
Dear Dr Huberman,like most of the viewers of your podcast, I find your scientifically -based information very helpful to maintain and enhance my physical and mental health.I live in England and I wonder whether you can suggest a reliable source of the supplement Phosphatidylserine and what is the recommended daily dose(300mg per day?) .There are a lot of companies, which sell online this supplement, but I don't know whether they are trustworthy and whether the supplement they sell is safe.I usually buy supplements from Holland & Barrett in England but they do not sell this product. Thank you very much!
Loved this episode and every episode before. Thank you for sharing illuminating science-based facts that are directly applicable to everyday life. Although I am not at all well-versed in biology I appreciate how you make your episodes easy to follow. I have learned so much from your podcast and also debunked some myths I previously believed. Every episode reminds me that I should really question whether the facts people or media are dispersing are really supported by scientific studies. Also I find your voice extremely calming, it's really been helpful in managing my anxiety. Thanks so much!
I still don't think that Dr Andrew gets enough credit for his work. He takes the best evidence around and helps us apply that evidence to our dad to day lives.
Hi Dr Hubermann, I have recently started listening to your episodes which were recommended by my fitness trainer. They are really helpful and based on your recommendation I have started intermittent fasting, strength and HIIT training and improving my sleeping routine. I have seen some significant results within 6 weeks (reducing weight, body fat, improving moods, feeling more energetic etc). There is a topic i am interested and it would be great if you can cover it. Do women entering pre/menopause have weaker results due to hormone change even they follow strictly your protocol? Or is it rather psychological limitation? Any science base theory? Or any adaptation of the protocol which can even optimise to see better results? Many thanks! Steph
Dear Dr.Hubermann, I have severe low blood pressure along with iron deficiency. Living in Germany and having access to high qualified labs gave me this opportunity to investigate the reason, unfortunately and after many times blood tests, the answer was: unknown reason. Is there any way to make my blood pressure a bit higher? In a normal day it is 86 /65 ( during pregnancy 100/75) . I appreciate all the shared information, it changed my lifestyle.💜
Yet another topic right in line with what's needed in my life. Hypothyroidism/Hashimotos has flipped my eating/cravings from lean healthy meats and vegetables to straight garbage. Fasting and reprogramming my brain to love real food again, is the only way out of this crazy roller coaster of death. Thanks again Dr. Huberman for saving lives.
I just discovered you about 2 weeks ago and am LOVING your content, which is filling in so many gaps for me as a certified fitness trainer. Thank you for offering this valuable info and I look forward to learning so much more!🙌🏽
2 hours journey back and fore to work, listening to Andrew Huberman is a game changer. Super information that I can understand simply because Andrew says it well. Thank you Can I ask if there is a session on how can we adapt our thinking to combat why the brain changes from day to day. Up and downs, negative/positive, courage or lack of courage. Thanks for your very informative pod casts and your guests. 🙏
Finally got through this! Thanks for touching on the microbiome! I’d love to see you interview Dr. Will Bulsiewicz (author of Fiber Fueled) or the founders of Seed synbiotic (Ara Katz and Raja Dhir). They are so knowledgeable and it would be epic to see your neuro angle with their microbio focus! Would be sweet. Or plantbased experts Dr. Esselstyn, Dr. Neal Barnard, Dr. Michael Greger, or starchivore doc Dr. John McDougall, among many others! I know I’m leaning plantbased here, but the topic is fascinating regardless of your own practices and these are all non-judgemental, science-based researchers with plenty of super cool nerdy factoids and tips! Love your podcasts! 🤘🏻
You should look into Modafinil. It’s a nootropic that is used to battle narcolepsy! I’ve tried myself and I think it’s a great alternative as far as medication.
I appreciate the summary of supplements with the detailed evidence for why they may be beneficial. One question that comes up for me is how many supplements Dr. Huberman actually takes himself every day. Does he take them with meals? Is it hard on the stomach to absorb so many nutrients at once? Are there any negative interactions between supplements that we should be aware of, to space them out?
@@jylbek71 thanks - my question is less about the content of the capsules and more about the volume. My wife is ridiculing me for having 6-8 capsules with breakfast, and concerned about the GI impact of all that concentrated nutrient. I just wanted to level set a bit, and see if any studies have been done on how many supplements at once might be too much.
This is an important question. I find I give up more often because I am not sure I am "doing it right" than because I think they aren't working. I would greatly appreciate a clear model to use as a starting point.
Hey Andrew, wanted to say a big thank you for mentioning the Zero app on one of your podcasts, (may have been last week, but can't say for sure as I've been watching them out of synch, depending on what I want to learn at that moment) anyway, the app is brilliant, I've been doing 16 or 18 hours fasts ever since, seeing the progress really helps keep a person motivated. I've also gone low carb and all sweets, chocolate etc are now out of my diet as from the last 6 days. That's a huge thing for me, I have a raging sweet tooth 😆 Not saying the app made me do the fasts or kick my sugar habit, that would be an insane statement, but having something that makes it simple to track has been a game changer. I've lost 6lbs already, water weight, sure, but suddenly I look in the mirror and I have cheekbones! So thank you again for your superb podcast, it has helped put me on the right track in so many areas. 😊 ❤🇬🇧 quick edit: glutamine wasn't my thing, made me feel quite unwell actually. I'm better without it. I think this is due to me having allergies - if glutamine does stimulate the immune system, that can make me feel a bit poo
Thank you so much to you and your team. Your pure passion and effort to educating the world! I wish there were Japanese subtitles to share the love and knowledge.
I find it rather interesting, I decided to begin eating healthier a few years ago and there were many healthy foods that I disliked and I would not even consider eating. I started introducing those foods into my diet , at first they were uneatable but I continued to eat them and now they are my favorite foods. I thought I was training my taste buds but now I see that I was rewiring my brain, great video, very detailed and informative.
Superb Andrew, I love this subject. I studied Astrophysics/Physics at University. When I met my career's advisor and said "I want to study the brain and how it responds to different things, like environment, emotions, chemicals etc." She looked at me like I was crazy and said she had no advice to give. It was 1997, UK. Neuroscience is fantastic. I'd love to help faciltitate getting more of the benefits of this knowledge to the general public" at scale" Loving what you do. 👍
Thank you, sir. Can't believe your videos are not suggested more by YT's system. Glad I found you. Now subscribed. As a short-attention-span ADDer, I really appreciate the time and effort put into the episode synopses and time stamping; the video titles are appealing but the lengths of 2 and 3 hours are intimidating to someone like me. The outlines immediately remove that feeling and make the videos even more appealing than the titles alone. Thank you.
Love listening to you Dr. Huberman, sir…. Very easy to understand and you have such a clear language. Thank you. Very informative. Great content. I have heard your story… amazing how you turned your life around. I admire you. Incredibly interesting to hear all those scientific research and it really helps to understand how we wired. I will listen more as I absolutely need to harness my nervous system and learn how to deal with nowadays stress. Thank you once again, sir.
Aha! You've helped me finally answer what I've often wondered.. why the things we like to eat as adults are so different from what we found rewarding as kids. I'm sure that is not my only takeaway, but once again so much interesting info! Thank you.
I've hated fish my whole life, had a terrible diet and been addicted to soda. But a few months ago I changed my diet, cut all sugar and started eating salmon 1-2 times a week. I did my research and came to a conclusion that something approximating Mediterranean diet is the best choice. This includes regular consumption of fish, which is full of that precious omega-3... Thinking of omega-3 alone changed my perception of fish and I actually enjoy it now. Even though a year ago I might have puked if i tried to eat it. And, as a matter of fact, as a child i did once puke from fish 😅
I just want to say thank you from the bottom of my heart. The information you constantly just give out is changing my life in so many ways. I did not expext this topic to be so enlightening. So thank you
Hi Dr. Huberman a thank you for the bread podcast as always. I love to learn about the brain as it seems to hold so many mysteries and love you break the information down so we (maybe just I) can understand. I would love it if you can ever discuss and break down what happens when a person gets ALS. I lost my husband to this disease and have always wondered how it happened to a healthy, fit, super strong young man. Thank you again.

Didn’t get any morning sunlight for over 20 YEARS and struggled with depression and poor sleep for most of my adult life. Discovered this podcast and decided to try getting morning sunlight for 10 minutes every day because why the hell not, it can’t hurt. One month later, I’m noticeably happier and more cheerful, and I’m sleeping better. Andrew, that one piece of advice had a more profound effect on my mental health than my therapist did. I hope you know that you’re literally saving the lives of people around the world!
It's called placebo effect
Wonderful! 🤩☀️
@@jamesevans2507 Placebo effects are powerful and real. Sometimes better than real medicine even!
20 years idk about that
@@jamesevans2507 its called you dont know how the brain works m0ron
I just love how concise you are in your podcasts, it's an hour and a half of one relevant piece of info after another.
I quit most podcasts because they waste so much time going off topic, joking and what not.
That's true. Mostly at end it's just some stories, narration and no ideas to remember or apply.
We have enought narration going within the mind..
This one stand out.
He is funny tho. Very brief asides make me laugh.
I absolutely agree, I gave up all other health, science podcasts because I want to be able to learn & absorb all the wealth of knowledge that Andrew Huberman teaches with such ease . What a find! I'm so grateful for this really helpful data.
I so sorry for your lost time. Now let us pray 🙏 . Thanks
@@quantumpotential7639 idk why this made me laugh. thanks.
When Dr. Huberman is like, "... and thank you for your interest in science." Ummmmm hold up dude. THANK YOU FOR PROVIDING ZERO COST TO CONSUMER INFORMATION ABOUT SCIENCE AND SCIENCE-RELATED TOOLS TO THE GENERAL PUBLIC!! My interest is sparked and fulfilled by your podcast. Keep it up and I will do the same!! Can't wait for the episode on concussions!! Hope you have a croissant in the near future ;)
Haha 😂 he makes me want to have a chocolate croissant! Concussions and traumatic brain injuries (tbi) would be awesome and personal for me. I hope to see some content on that also.
Right. Thank God for Dr. Huberman. I have a neurological issue called cluster headaches and my neurologist says it can't be good for the brain to keep having these extreme pains and we don't know the effects long term. So I'm trying to take care of my body and brain hoping it will heal. I also try to stay active mentally. Learn something everyday.
I have background in finance and banking supervision so I do need help when it comes to understanding medical science and Dr Huberman makes it so easy by linking all the good research. I can't express how thankful I am.
I think we can participate in optimizing his capacity- by learning in 10-20” gaps over time= exponential gain over time. I Love learning when it comes yo this podcast
@@niurkarosa Just wrote the same before seeing this... I get the feeling people w/ TBI (like myself) have different brain function as far as processing food/supplements... Sometimes I get the feeling I am forging paths to "work around" the injury which is located in the temporal lobe area... It's almost like trying to reach a destination and the "bridge has been washed out" requiring me to find an alternate route to accomplish simple decision making processes.
@@zeynand4039 There was a guy I call the Niacin Guru on Twitter that had documented cases indicating that a protocol of 500 mg - 1G of FULL FLUSH NIACIN + 500mg Niacinamide coupled w/ 10-20MG OF MELATONIN obliterates cluster headaches... The "Burn" takes some getting used to, but the optimal dosage can be reached incrementally which will help you to adjust to the flush...
The most influential person i follow. No bs podcast, just pure knowledge.
Pretty much...I am 68 and all you young people out there have the time element on your side to gain pretty cool knowledge about physiology and how to implement and try out what he recommends...Cool Shit for certain....use it people.
@@markwallinger5801indeed it is.
I have been taking phosphatidylserine for about a year. I am 72. I had noticed problems finding words and forgetting odd things. It only took a short amount of time I truly noticed a huge difference!
Any recommendations on where tu buy or brand?
I am officially hooked : I can’t recall what life was like before I discovered the Huberman Lab. Thank you so much for sharing the knowledge, experiments and findings . So fascinating & I love your sense of humour . You are a phenomenal speaker . Let’s clone you … thank you so much . Amazing . Grateful follower … taking the info on board . Thanks 🙏🏻. Lina
Thanks for being you Andrew. I can't imagine what you've endured to be this person. What a blessing!
Amazing information Andrew!! Thanks for sharing.
He's probably endured a lot but I imagine he was raised right. I could be wrong though but that's just the sense I get.

@@agarwalsapna95 Will do, thanks for informing me.
@@agarwalsapna95 I'm 5 minutes in and I remember now I've seen it before, but I'm watchign the first 30 minutes again to refresh my memory.
You sir, are a fine example of what one person can do to make the world a better place. Thank you.
This is one of the best and most applicable talks I’ve heard so far with direct implications on health coaching. The concept of the role of the insula connects directly to current concepts about enteroception and chronic pain. This may be a good topic for future discussion. A study just released on pain reprocessing therapy and neuroplastic pain speaks to this.
Feel like I'm back in College but the difference is I love these classes delivered with such simplicity. Thanks Sparta!!!! Love your work.
Greetings from Finland! This podcast has been such an eye opener. I've got so many new tools to manage my circadian rythm for example. Andrew you are true rockstar of science. And a good humour too. I find myself rather often chuckling which is rare.
Huberman: First thing in the morning: Get some sunlight in your face.
Finland: 🌫
Samaa mieltä. Torille!! 😂
Yup, totally agree with you. Greetings from Finland Dr. Huberman.
I think my life has changed a lot for the better after discovering this podcast. Thank you Dr. Huberman for putting this great work together for the general public. 👍👍
Your podcasts are perhaps the only ones with actual useful information. I’ve never learned so much in just one podcast. Thank you
Italian 🇮🇹. I discovered Huberman podcasts "by accident". I'm always been interested in science, in psychology and now i am also interested in neuroscience. Thanks to Dr Huberman to divulgate these kind of information FOR FREE and in a very professional and scientific manner.
And guys... This man can speak for two hours in a row without be redundant, without any difficulties and without annoying the public. I think it's because he's competent and completely passionate about the matter.
Well done, i say 👏
You have a phenomenal understanding of the brain, the ability to convey such complexities in such a simple form is a true gift. I had one doctor who unfortunately passed away with similar understanding, and I always thought it a shame for humanity when most of his research ended, without much exposure to the outer world. Thank you for sharing these not only for now, but for those who may need it later.
The last 20 minutes or so tie together a mechanism for conditioning nearly any association with dopamine reward - BRILLIANT!!! The ability to intentionally wire behaviors/associations with neurological reward, or rewire maladaptive habits/behaviors, is priceless. Thank you for connecting the dots.
Just here to mention that the suggestion of pinch of salt with a glass of water in the morning from last week's episode has paid huge dividends for me already.
I had struggled with what seemed like some kind of neural fatigue for a while now, sodium seems to have immediately fixed that!
Also, it greatly impacted my REM sleep according to my Oura ring - I get the same amounts of REM in 7 hours of sleep that I used to need 9 hours for! And this directly results in better cognitive performance during the day, as I had a day where I slept less than 7 hours (and REM was also less according to my Oura that day), so I was immediately brain fogged again.
I missed that episode
Can you pls clarify a bit more About salt + water thing , since I feel fatigued in the morning as well
Shall one take it in the morning right after one wakes up ?
The water must be hot or cold or lukewarm ?
Appreciate if you could elaborate a bit
in what podcast did he talk about this?
@@akshaynarwadkar5264 There's a lot of information out there on salt helping the adrenal glands. No difference on water temperature, though warmer water can help raise body temperature which helps wakefulness. Add as much salt as you can tolerate. I add potassium citrate as well. Some people like lemon juice as well. I use mineral water or seltzer personally. Cheers. Been doing this for about 6 years now.
This is absolutely brilliant. The extreme intelligence and deep insightfulness of Andrew is so readily apparent. I nominate him for supreme ruler of the galaxy.
After I got acquainted with these excellent Huberman Podcasts, I hv been wondering what can I learn from nuroscience about the biggest problem of my life, Stutterering. I can't talk fluently. My speech consists of unintentional blocks, prolongations and repetitions. It's super frustrating being a teenager and not being able to raise my voice. Definitely there's something wrong in my brain's left hemisphere. Some people say it's just a bad habit of talking which I have practiced for a long time. May be that's true. May be I have developed some new neural circuits which is only allowing me to speak this broken way. May be a part of my brain has been changed its shape and now I am a stutterer.
However, being optimistic, I'm hoping to be able to adopt some new ways to talk properly. I'm only 20 so I believe my brain is highly plastic and I can make some positive changes in it regarding my speech.

Paul stamets has an interesting story about fixing his stutter.
@@andrealucy91 Thanks for the information! I'll search it.
I have a friend who is a stutter coach. He's removed his stutter and helped lots of others. Are you on Facebook?
@@jtomasone7430 nope buddy:-)
I am amazed of the lectures of Dr. Huberman, even without illustrative video or photos - simply by gestures - he can animate his lessons.
Thank you Andrew for the effort you have put in to this podcast. Your episode on dopamine control is perhaps the single most useful piece of 2 hour information I have ever come across. Some months ago I stopped snusing (Swedish nicotine products) and I have managed to regulate the time I spend on social media, TH-cam, movies and other fun but somewhat procrastinaty activities. Stuff still draws me in of course but I now feel like I have a tool to counter it. When I find myself get sucked in I stop and do a mental check. Do I really need this dopamine-release right now? Or should I refrain from doing the activity and instead put my mind to something else? It has really helped me man. I have loads more energy to distribute on the activities and pursuits that mean a lot to me! So thank you and I hope you keep up or even improve the quality of this awesome podcast! From 🇸🇪 with ❤️
Btw, I have a few questions regarding dopamine and dopamine control. If you would be interested in taking a stab at them I’ll send them to you.
Can you please link the episode to me?!
Thank you Dr. Huberman, team, sponsors and supporters.
I love reading through the comments where my questions are answered. ☀️
EPISODE 48-1 MILLION SUBSCRIBERS!!!
Just want to let you know Andrew, that I'm so grateful to be able to enjoy your podcast. It's clear you put a lot of work into these, and it does not go unnoticed!
I learn so much from every episode. The detailed explanations you give about how various facets of the brain and body work really scratch that itch I have to understand more about myself and the world. Also, the actionable steps you outline give me the capability to put my new found knowledge to practical use immediately.
I really appreciate everything you do, and I look forward to what you'll create next!
Dr Huberman , you have no idea how much I appreciate the fact you given us all needed information and all the possible options for obtaining them Without trying to sell us some products you make , your service to humanity is much appreciated and you have our love and blessings for being a great human being ❤️🙏🏽
I overcome the "yuck" response by saying a prayer before eating. I thank Grandmother Earth for providing me this food which will nourish my body and improve my health and well-being. It works because I feel thankful for what I am consuming. If this or other tips helps anyone else who is reading this please share..🙏 Thanks
If that's an animal, just so you know, the animal is not thankful.
@@veganioan Thanks for your reply. I am vegetarian since 2004 but either way, I believe it is an individual choice what one consumes. No judgments.
@@niurkarosa no judgements, no judgements, but what about the victims.
If the victim would be a human things would be different.
Hence, cannibals are judged by being crazy.
@@veganioan I was going to just ignore ur comment but I want to honor myself. And well the way I see things is that.. I AM the message, not the messenger. And I set an example, then others can follow. I know that at least 7 people in my inner circle have become either vegetarian or vegan by seeing my 17 year journey with food and Holistic lifestyle. And as with Professor Huberman, he doesn't seem to judge us for being ignorant about wrong breathing and eating habits. He is just teaching those who are open to learning and making an effort to educate ourselves. Like I said before, no judgments.
Nobody wants to be judged and less likely to open up to learning. All the best to everyone on the journey 🙏
@@niurkarosa Best comment ever!
I wish podcasts transforming people's health and well-being were accessible in as many languages as possible. Understanding our brain is a fantastic opportunity for change in so many directions. Thank you for showing me this opportunity.
Very well presented and well spoken - you can see Dr.Huberman practices what he preaches!
I listen to your podcast all the time. I cut down on listening so much news and rather enjoy listening to your podcast instead. Thank you for sharing all the wonderful topics you bring to us. It has helped me a lot.
Would be tremendous if we could get a podcast dedicated to children's physical and brain health best practices and so on.
Let them be kids to adventure,to learn how to socialize,to get the fuck outside and be kind and firm with them...I would keep religious beliefs away from them until their own curiosity drives them to seek.
Feed em good nutrient dense food....Sports and music training if you can afford it and they are curious....that's a good start from my sideline...Be well folks.
@@markwallinger5801 I told my grandson you can’t hold hands with the devil and God at the same time. Gotta take your pick. God or the devil.

The future of healing is right on our doorsteps. Please bring the Medical Medium , Anthony William onto your Podcast. He needs more and more of the good Drs, we all do. Thankyou for the work you do i appreciate you.
mind blown on the fact that artificial sweetener + blood glucose increasing food lead to later insulin secretion in response to artificial sweetener alone. biology!
bruh its common sense....natural food gives you best result...unless you're a GMO Humane.
Thank you for providing such relevant information for us clinicians trying to help our patients- I use your teachings all the time when working with people trying to improve their health 😉 it’s incredible how people respond to Frank scientific information
I read the study it’s interesting but the blood response graphs appear to improve insulin sensitivity post glucose but also increase fasting insulin. I don’t understand how a more acute response is supposed to be worse (as this usually signals better insulin sensitivity so my only thought is the graph is mislabeled? There aren’t tables included to confirm or deny what’s shown.). Further if you look at the box plots there is least variability in the combined group but different people had really different responses both above and below the mean so this might be one to self-study if you use artificial sweeteners…
@@caseyj9 Not sure if I understand you correctly. I believe you are talking about the graphs that show increased insulin in the combo group? Increased insulin level (production) in response to the same amount of sugar consumption, which means insulin is not doing the job (decreasing blood glucose) properly, thus decreased insulin sensitivity.
@@giraffecolor5681 yes that’s what I was referring to- did you look at it? That would be the case if it remained high, but it still decreased quickly which is what you want for insulin sensitivity. If you have more thoughts on it definitely lmk I’m here to learn but I also think a lot of great scientists don’t look super thoroughly at the math to see if the discussions match what the numbers show, so I always read them myself
I had a hemageratic stroke in December I don't currently have use of my left arm and leg. I'm making progress. And I wanted to let you know how helpful a lot of your content has been to me. Thank you very much
As a person with Parkinson’s (PWP) I’d really love a video on PD and unconventional methods of addressing the symptoms and the only current typical end point of deep brain brain stimulation (a kind of pacemaker for the brain.) thanks for you videos!
Phosphphatidylserine - I supplement with it. Started after my doc had me start using it. Did not know the benefits of it on brain function until this video. I noticed immediately after I started it, I had less aches and pains and stiffness in the body. I read it should be taken with turmeric and omega 3, so I also do that. Glad to hear that I’m also benefitting my brain! I loved this supplement after feeling the immediate effects on my body and now love it even more!

The explanation that connects diet sodas to insulin is the best I’ve heard, the fact that diet soda once paired with glucose increasing foods can later and by itself cause the secretion of insulin without blood sugar is mind blowing. thank you!
It's absolutely crazy.
But then again. Many fat people said they lost a lot of weight by switching to diet soda 🤔

I have a Bachelor’s in Languages for Sales, and am pursuing a Master’s in Food Marketing and Sales. It’s not a science intensive path, and Dr. Huberman sparked my interest in neurology so much that I am contacting my Food Quality professor to start a research for my thesis that can link food marketing with a salutigenic approach to neurology and health optimization through food. It’s big because without Huberman I would have probably just done the classic thesis on some marketing stuff instead of this, which I deem more impactful for consumers and businesses in the industry. I also was going to get a job in a normal food company, but after this renewed interest in health science, I am considering to approach the health industry instead. Incredible how some TH-cam videos you come across randomly can change your path so much!! Thank you for your work to you and your whole team.
Thank you Dr. Huberman! You are helping me and undoubtedly countless others with this podcast. I have been searching for the most recent information to help my parents fight cognitive decline during the constant lockdowns. Any further recommended sources greatly appreciated!
Any kind of social interaction and music included was the biggest for my GPs. Consider l-methylfolate / 5-mthf, (most active form of folate) good for depression and folic acid deficiencies are common in the elderly, not to mention 60% of people have genes that lead to struggles with converting folate into usable form, hence why you need the expensive kind and not the folic acid from Jamieson,

Dr Huberman, thank you for sharing health science in such a dynamic and concise platform. I would (and many others) would appreciate greatly if one subject you could tackle is the gut microbiome and autoimmune diseases which plagues our world insidiously. 😎
Although I have been working from home, I allow myself to be tethered to my computer without putting nutrition or rather eating in general on my to do list. I recently started crashing around 2pm on the daily, but this topic reminded me of the importance of nutrition which I need to be more mindful of especially as I age. Since listening to this particular subject I've put the nutrients first and no longer crashing. The nutrient tools you provide here are quite simple but TOO easily neglected. Thank you for all you do, Andrew Huberman!

I went plant based after we a second cancer diagnosis.. I am in remission, but lately have experienced an inflammation feeling in my head. Your food section was very informative! I would love to see “what you eat in a day” . Thank you for sharing!
How are you doing now?
I'd love an episode on migraines. I suffer from chronic migraines and cluster headaches, I possibly know where they're coming from thanks to an MRI and I have them under control thru fasting but when I'm doing long hours that I need to focus my eyes on something I feel "soreness" in the back of my eyes which is the feeling I get at the start of a migraine so I tend to freak out. I don't know how to explain it better. Are there any exercises to help the eyes "rest better/faster"?
At least for cluster headaches psychedelics supposedly work very well, for some reason

This TH-cam channel is changing the world!
This is so fantastic! Thank you! I wonder if any research has been done on how chemo and radiation on the various parts of the digestive system (specifically colon cancer) impact the neuropod receptors. I ask this because as a person treated with these chemicals and processes, my digestion doesn’t make sense to me anymore. It would be great to have a better understanding of the physical mechanisms impacted. Maybe someone like me could positively counteract the overall impact of the treatment. Maybe it’s as “simple” as ingesting more fermented foods. Thanks, as always. Honestly, your work is a God-send.
Check out Dr Zach Bush videos fall in love with him then use his product Ion biome -

Thank you doctor! I've turned around my life with your podcasts
hey man! thanks for changing my life. i feel amazing and full of energy now, and my skin and health are amazing now thanks to sleep, salt, exercise, sunlight, electrolytes, proper food and supplements. however one weird thing thats happened to me now that I've become healthy for a whole month is that I feel as though my creativity has been blunted. Is this effect temporary? i feel almost like im on chemical antidepressants even though im not. All day long I feel compelled to just do nonstop work, study, cleaning and chores with autistic/military precision. i have a healthy routine now, but my brain no longer feels the desire to waste time working on my hobby/crrative/art/programming projects anymore. back when I was severely deficient in electrolytes and nutrients as well as calories, my physical health was horrible and i was full of anxiety... but being unhealthy made me super creative and full of ideas. back when I was super deficient and unhealthy, i used to avoid doing chores and instead i was creative all day to the detriment of my adult responsibilities. now that I'm healthy though, I am super productive and focused on chores and work and relationships and important thing and i have no deaire to waste time being creative. is this normal?
Fascinating! Thanks Dr Huberman for sharing your knowledge in such a way that makes a complex subject easy to understand. Priceless! A gift by itself. Starting with the setting which is so relaxing to watch, each of your talks are fascinating as it incorporates many important elements to help your audience discover the wonders of how the brain functions in relation with the body! Brilliant!
I rarely consume sucralose but I drink fair amount of diet drinks which contains aspartame. I briefly scanned through the reference paper: "Short-term consumption of sucralose with, but not without, carbohydrate impairs neural and metabolic sensitivity to sugar in humans - Dalenberg et al" to see if they mentioned anything in regards to aspartame. Luckily, it seems like aspartame is the least likely to impair metabolic sensitivity to sugar compared to sucralose and ace-K:
"One reason why aspartame may produce less effects on incretins and glucose absorption is that it is rapidly metabolized in the small intestine and would therefore have less opportunity to bind to taste receptor cells or glucose transporters"
It is amazing to me how Andrew can elaborate and explain all this Neuroscience complexity out of his mind for almost 2 hours, Good Stuff !
Dr.Huberman, as a fellow citizen of the U.S. I am extremely thankful and blessed that you and people like you are doing the job I feel practitioners either don’t know about or don’t like talking about because it’s so much data. Plus, from my experience, those doctors would rather get paid an extra cost rather than explaining the inner workings of the chemical processes within the body. (My doctor is such a bastard and doesn’t explain anything to me) I wish more family practitioners were like you. Please don’t stop the podcast you have so much vital information and know so many good doctors. Thank you, from a person to a person, you have saved my life.
Yes! I can relate to so much of this episode but, particularly around 56:00 in about the rewiring preference of taste and the reward system. I have been fat and then in really good shape 2x in my life. Both times I was able to rewire my pleasure responses from bad foods to healthier foods because of how I relate the positivity in the end result. Now I really don't care for sweet unless it's mild and natural, but I highly prefer healthy foods, and yes it takes time, but like you said in previous episodes on dopamine, once you delay gratification and rethink the reward system, foods that are healthy taste amazing. I have been preaching this to my loved ones for years, and another bonus perk, when you said things that further establish your belief system make you stimulate dopamine, that is true! All this gets me pumped and not only for me, but I was able to convince my GF who did the diet and exercise w me. She has seen through the hard work and from my word that things have changed in her brain!
Thank you so much Dr. Huberman. I think many would be interested in an episode on nutrition for optimal human development. Foods to eat or feed our children as well as foods for women for a healthy pregnancy and healthy fetus development.
I swear, these episodes just get better & better. Thank you Andrew! Very interesting information and very good presentation.
Dear Dr Huberman,like most of the viewers of your podcast, I find your scientifically -based information very helpful to maintain and enhance my physical and mental health.I live in England and I wonder whether you can suggest a reliable source of the supplement Phosphatidylserine and what is the recommended daily dose(300mg per day?) .There are a lot of companies, which sell online this supplement, but I don't know whether they are trustworthy and whether the supplement they sell is safe.I usually buy supplements from Holland & Barrett in England but they do not sell this product. Thank you very much!
Loved this episode and every episode before. Thank you for sharing illuminating science-based facts that are directly applicable to everyday life. Although I am not at all well-versed in biology I appreciate how you make your episodes easy to follow. I have learned so much from your podcast and also debunked some myths I previously believed. Every episode reminds me that I should really question whether the facts people or media are dispersing are really supported by scientific studies. Also I find your voice extremely calming, it's really been helpful in managing my anxiety. Thanks so much!
I still don't think that Dr Andrew gets enough credit for his work. He takes the best evidence around and helps us apply that evidence to our dad to day lives.
Hi Dr Hubermann, I have recently started listening to your episodes which were recommended by my fitness trainer. They are really helpful and based on your recommendation I have started intermittent fasting, strength and HIIT training and improving my sleeping routine. I have seen some significant results within 6 weeks (reducing weight, body fat, improving moods, feeling more energetic etc). There is a topic i am interested and it would be great if you can cover it. Do women entering pre/menopause have weaker results due to hormone change even they follow strictly your protocol? Or is it rather psychological limitation? Any science base theory? Or any adaptation of the protocol which can even optimise to see better results? Many thanks! Steph
Great question Stephanie I’m also curious about bio identical hormones and can the help as well?
The only choline I could find from Thorne is the physohpsydal choline.. is that sufficient?
Hello Dr. Huberman, hope you're doing amazing. Be blessed sweet professor 🙏🤍🕊✝️
Dear Dr.Hubermann, I have severe low blood pressure along with iron deficiency. Living in Germany and having access to high qualified labs gave me this opportunity to investigate the reason, unfortunately and after many times blood tests, the answer was: unknown reason. Is there any way to make my blood pressure a bit higher? In a normal day it is 86 /65 ( during pregnancy 100/75) . I appreciate all the shared information, it changed my lifestyle.💜
Eat salty foods and drink plenty of fluids
Yet another topic right in line with what's needed in my life. Hypothyroidism/Hashimotos has flipped my eating/cravings from lean healthy meats and vegetables to straight garbage. Fasting and reprogramming my brain to love real food again, is the only way out of this crazy roller coaster of death. Thanks again Dr. Huberman for saving lives.
I just discovered you about 2 weeks ago and am LOVING your content, which is filling in so many gaps for me as a certified fitness trainer. Thank you for offering this valuable info and I look forward to learning so much more!🙌🏽
It broke my heart to see family member suffering from depression. Why can’t doctors formulate a cocktail to give to patients through IV periodically.
Hey, our professor with serious mission in black shirt is back 42nd time!
2 hours journey back and fore to work, listening to Andrew Huberman is a game changer. Super information that I can understand simply because Andrew says it well. Thank you Can I ask if there is a session on how can we adapt our thinking to combat why the brain changes from day to day. Up and downs, negative/positive, courage or lack of courage. Thanks for your very informative pod casts and your guests. 🙏
I am so thankful for this and the free public education you are providing.
Finally got through this! Thanks for touching on the microbiome! I’d love to see you interview Dr. Will Bulsiewicz (author of Fiber Fueled) or the founders of Seed synbiotic (Ara Katz and Raja Dhir). They are so knowledgeable and it would be epic to see your neuro angle with their microbio focus! Would be sweet. Or plantbased experts Dr. Esselstyn, Dr. Neal Barnard, Dr. Michael Greger, or starchivore doc Dr. John McDougall, among many others! I know I’m leaning plantbased here, but the topic is fascinating regardless of your own practices and these are all non-judgemental, science-based researchers with plenty of super cool nerdy factoids and tips! Love your podcasts! 🤘🏻
Would love a deep dive into narcolepsy & how to reconcile the effects of medications used to treat it, with their long term effects on the brain…
me too, snoozing during the day not fitting with aviidung foid vefore/after...
You should look into Modafinil. It’s a nootropic that is used to battle narcolepsy! I’ve tried myself and I think it’s a great alternative as far as medication.
I appreciate the summary of supplements with the detailed evidence for why they may be beneficial. One question that comes up for me is how many supplements Dr. Huberman actually takes himself every day. Does he take them with meals? Is it hard on the stomach to absorb so many nutrients at once? Are there any negative interactions between supplements that we should be aware of, to space them out?
In one of his videos he talks about the list of supplements he takes...I think you might be able to find them on his IG
@@jylbek71 thanks - my question is less about the content of the capsules and more about the volume. My wife is ridiculing me for having 6-8 capsules with breakfast, and concerned about the GI impact of all that concentrated nutrient. I just wanted to level set a bit, and see if any studies have been done on how many supplements at once might be too much.
This is an important question. I find I give up more often because I am not sure I am "doing it right" than because I think they aren't working. I would greatly appreciate a clear model to use as a starting point.
Hey Andrew, wanted to say a big thank you for mentioning the Zero app on one of your podcasts, (may have been last week, but can't say for sure as I've been watching them out of synch, depending on what I want to learn at that moment) anyway, the app is brilliant, I've been doing 16 or 18 hours fasts ever since, seeing the progress really helps keep a person motivated. I've also gone low carb and all sweets, chocolate etc are now out of my diet as from the last 6 days. That's a huge thing for me, I have a raging sweet tooth 😆
Not saying the app made me do the fasts or kick my sugar habit, that would be an insane statement, but having something that makes it simple to track has been a game changer. I've lost 6lbs already, water weight, sure, but suddenly I look in the mirror and I have cheekbones!
So thank you again for your superb podcast, it has helped put me on the right track in so many areas. 😊 ❤🇬🇧 quick edit: glutamine wasn't my thing, made me feel quite unwell actually. I'm better without it. I think this is due to me having allergies - if glutamine does stimulate the immune system, that can make me feel a bit poo
I've been loving the Zero app too! Downloaded it last week & it's a great support tool for tracking fasting.
It is crazy how we have access to the latest science discoveries in a university level quality with youtube 🙌🏽
Thank you so much to you and your team. Your pure passion and effort to educating the world! I wish there were Japanese subtitles to share the love and knowledge.
This guy is brilliant and very well spoken.
I find it rather interesting, I decided to begin eating healthier a few years ago and there were many healthy foods that I disliked and I would not even consider eating. I started introducing those foods into my diet , at first they were uneatable but I continued to eat them and now they are my favorite foods. I thought I was training my taste buds but now I see that I was rewiring my brain, great video, very detailed and informative.
what were some of those foods?
@@nutamilikole3492 What foods did you introduce?
Superb Andrew,
I love this subject. I studied Astrophysics/Physics at University. When I met my career's advisor and said "I want to study the brain and how it responds to different things, like environment, emotions, chemicals etc." She looked at me like I was crazy and said she had no advice to give. It was 1997, UK.
Neuroscience is fantastic. I'd love to help faciltitate getting more of the benefits of this knowledge to the general public" at scale"
Loving what you do. 👍
Thank you, sir. Can't believe your videos are not suggested more by YT's system. Glad I found you. Now subscribed. As a short-attention-span ADDer, I really appreciate the time and effort put into the episode synopses and time stamping; the video titles are appealing but the lengths of 2 and 3 hours are intimidating to someone like me. The outlines immediately remove that feeling and make the videos even more appealing than the titles alone. Thank you.
Love listening to you Dr. Huberman, sir…. Very easy to understand and you have such a clear language. Thank you. Very informative. Great content. I have heard your story… amazing how you turned your life around. I admire you. Incredibly interesting to hear all those scientific research and it really helps to understand how we wired. I will listen more as I absolutely need to harness my nervous system and learn how to deal with nowadays stress. Thank you once again, sir.
Aha! You've helped me finally answer what I've often wondered.. why the things we like to eat as adults are so different from what we found rewarding as kids. I'm sure that is not my only takeaway, but once again so much interesting info! Thank you.
I've hated fish my whole life, had a terrible diet and been addicted to soda. But a few months ago I changed my diet, cut all sugar and started eating salmon 1-2 times a week. I did my research and came to a conclusion that something approximating Mediterranean diet is the best choice. This includes regular consumption of fish, which is full of that precious omega-3... Thinking of omega-3 alone changed my perception of fish and I actually enjoy it now. Even though a year ago I might have puked if i tried to eat it. And, as a matter of fact, as a child i did once puke from fish 😅
I just want to say thank you from the bottom of my heart. The information you constantly just give out is changing my life in so many ways. I did not expext this topic to be so enlightening. So thank you
Your interviews have helped me so much. Thank you for all the amazing information
Hi Dr. Huberman a thank you for the bread podcast as always. I love to learn about the brain as it seems to hold so many mysteries and love you break the information down so we (maybe just I) can understand.
I would love it if you can ever discuss and break down what happens when a person gets ALS. I lost my husband to this disease and have always wondered how it happened to a healthy, fit, super strong young man. Thank you again.
