    My mom grew up in a family with little to no money and shared the house with a lot of siblings. Her father would buy m&ms, separate them by color, put each color in a fancy jar, and label it properly with their respective "medical properties", such as "Painkillers" for red ones and "Sleep pills" for blue ones. I grew up listening my mom insist on how effective those "pills" were, and laughing at her. Now, decades later, Mr. Huberman teaches me on the effects of color, labels and beliefs on placebo, and I find myself thinking: "My grandpa was a true genius. Made medicine out of sugar, and healed his family despite having little to no money at all." - Thank you Andrew! You make me humbler every day.

    Sorry for my English, I had severe Anhedonia after I quit my job. The job caused my mental breakdown and I had no other option but to resign. I couldn't sleep at night and it worsened my mental state. The ability to not fall asleep is like torture. You feel like screaming and going mad. It caused me to become paranoid and I thought I was becoming schizophrenic. I had no feeling or any emotions. It's like my soul died inside. No feeling, no pleasure. Only thing i felt was extreme agitation and that's when I decided to put on my running shoes and I ran 5km. It didn't really improve my mood but i consistently jogged every day and I gradually got my feeling back. I believe the sun exposure played a massive part in my healing. First thing every morning i went to the beach and swam in cold water. That brought me back to life. Why? Because it fixed my sleep. I believe the most important thing when depressed is to fix your sleep and daily sunlight, cold exposure, cardio exercises like running, hiking or breathing exercises does improve your sleep rapidly and that's the road to recovery right there. I highly recommend Wim Hof ,David Goggins, Alan Watts and Dr Hubberman if you feel paranoid or depressed.

      Good for you, glad you’re doing better! I heard people say that when you’re feeling mentally numb, do things that will force you to feel things externally. So like you said, cold water exposure, sunlight exposure, running and activities that will connect the mind to the body. I think a lot of people don’t do this because we’re told when you’re stressed you’re dealing with mental problems.
      Of course, the mental work needs to be done but can’t forget how much physical work matters too

    My sister in law has MS and has just had it confirmed that she has moved to the progressive form of the disease. It's so hard to see her feel so hopeless (and my brother). I have tried to research but as a lay person it is so difficult to know which is the trust worthy information. We are in the uk and although we are so lucky to have the NHS they can't offer or recommend the wide range of treatments that are available privately and around the world. it would be beyond amazing if you felt that an episode on this condition might be of interest to more of your audience.
    I completely understand you must get inundated with requests, but I'm feeling a little useless too so thought it was worth a try.
    Thank you

    Please do an episode on Alopecia, in particular Alopecia Areata. The link between the autoimmune disease & the gut microbiome in particular fascinates me and I’ve been trying for years now to alter gut microbiome to see if I can send mine into remission.
    You thank us all for our interest in science, but I just want to thank you, for your interest in science, as without it, I speak for a lot of people in saying we’d be incredibly less informed if you hadn’t started your podcast.

      Hey I’ve got some really great news to share with you, Jesus Christ, the Son of God, died on a cross and resurrected on the third day so you may all have eternal life. If you believe and repent of your sins and put your faith and trust in Him as you would a parachute jumping off a plane at 25000 feet up in the air, He will give you eternal life in heaven as a free gift and I promise you, He will change your life forever as He did mine. He is the ONLY way to heaven and He loves you all. Please think deeply about this with urgency because this is your eternal life and soul, you don’t know when you could die, meaning you could die at any moment, so please consider this with all your heart. If anyone tells you that Jesus isn’t the only way, they are lying to you and they don’t care about your future.

    Greetings! German teacher with MS here. I love your content, and I'm able to use so much of your teaching into professional development sessions for teachers. My last presentation integrated your research /analysis of neuroplasticity and mindset effects. Life-changing information for students and teachers alike, and I always direct my audience to you and Dr. Crum.
    You mentioned you had never seen The Matrix. Um... You absolutely have to see this movie -- for a lot of reasons -- but its dive into mindset effects goes along with everything you've been saying. "The mind makes it real" is one of my favorite moments of the movie, and there are so many moments that speak to the power of the mind and of belief systems. It's worth a deep dive on its own. I promise.

    Beliefs, expectations, mindset.... I heard the word subconscious mentioned once. Core beliefs passed thru centuries and from our environment can be deeply rooted, and yet can be discovered and modified, eliminated or replaced with something positive. What are the limits of the mind? Meditation, mindfulness, affirmations... Possibilities are many and great. Thanks for the video. All the best.

    I work as a medical interpreter in Australia. Years ago I had a patient who came to ED due to heart issues and high blood pressure. He was going to undergo an emergency open heart surgery. He was so nervous about dying on surgery table that his blood pressure couldn’t be controlled by medicine through the drip very 15 minutes. His daughters came to see him before the surgery, they told him to pray as their family believes in God. The two daughters held his hands and prayed for a few minutes, his blood pressure came down and stabilised. Today’s podcast clearly explained why and how belief can have placebo effect.

    This is the BEST Andrew! It is the acknowledgement of the Science of ENERGY before the Science of MATTER. Reality is created with ENERGY. We wield energy with our MIND. Energy is contagious, the more powerful energy, the contagion. Disconnecting from the cage of thoughts (law of man and its common "sense" - i.e. FEAR) FREES the mind to be in CONTROL instead of the AUTOMATION that's been conditioned.

    This was very timely for me. I just stopped a medication for eczema (Dupixent) and I was ‘expecting’ a rebound at week ten. I just told myself this was likely. I tried to not think that way but I really felt it inside and couldn’t stop thinking about it. Sure enough I had a major eczema flare right at week ten! Your podcast really helped me realize the power of these thoughts and now I’m going to try to harness my mind to expect healing.
    I wish I could get saline needles to inject every two weeks. I bet my body would think it was Dupixent!!!

    Only words suffice to make us fascinated by all this information. I can only imagine taking the narration of the most popular episodes of the Huberman podcast as a backbone to create a series of documentaries about how humans works. Adding images and animations in a minimalistic way, prioritizing the original narration over flashy HD scenes and useless special effects stuff. That could be very popular. We have this impression that everything has been done but we never get enough of this kind of quality documentaries like they used to make.

    Hey Huberman, I just wanted to express how much I love your videos. Since day one, I've been a fan and have watched every single episode.
    I've got a suggestion for a topic that I think would be super helpful and interesting for many of us: emotional stability. After all, it's something we all struggle with at times. Why do we feel all over the place sometimes, and more importantly, what can we do about it? It would be amazing to have a science-based view of it and methods to improve ourselves.
    Thank you for the awesome work, and I'm looking forward to whatever you've got coming up next." 🇧🇷❤

    01:23 🧠 Neural circuits in the brain modulate biological functions such as heart rate and blood pressure in response to expectations.
    02:33 🩺 Placebo, nocebo, and belief effects can be harnessed as unique treatments for various diseases alongside traditional approaches.
    07:29 🔬 Placebo effects are distinct from nocebo effects and belief effects, each with unique impacts on symptoms and performance.
    09:26 🧠 The prefrontal cortex plays a key role in placebo, nocebo, and belief effects by modulating neural circuits that control physiological functions.
    13:49 🧪 Placebo, nocebo, and belief effects rely on information and experiences shaping expectations, leading to physiological changes in the brain and body.
    19:52 💡 Expectation strength varies across individuals and impacts the magnitude of placebo effects, highlighting the importance of placebo controls in clinical trials.
    20:06 🧠 The placebo effect measures the expectation of a drug's effects in a trial, illustrating the impact of belief on outcomes.
    21:30 🩸 Placebo effects show high specificity based on what individuals believe about a treatment, even impacting hormone levels.
    23:31 💉 A placebo injection, even of saline, can lead to hormone changes based on prior knowledge or expectation of treatment.
    31:48 🛎 Classical conditioning demonstrates how unrelated stimuli, like a bell, can trigger physiological responses like insulin release.
    34:36 💊 Expectations about treatment quality, packaging, and color significantly impact the placebo effect.
    39:15 🏥 The placebo effect is stronger with more invasive or complex treatments, showing the brain's association of complexity with larger outcomes.
    40:37 🩸 Expectations, not just psychological, have real biological effects through specific brain circuitry.
    41:06 🩸 Placebo effects have limitations, such as in cancer treatment, where they alleviate symptoms but do not shrink or eliminate tumors.
    45:00 🎩 Placebo effects, while powerful, are specific and cannot completely eliminate conditions like asthma or cancer.
    49:09 💡 Belief systems significantly shape how drugs, supplements, and behavioral protocols affect physiology and brain function.
    53:01 🧠 Placebo effects scale with the degree of expectation one has, influencing outcomes even with the same dosage of a substance.
    57:01 🍔 Beliefs about the calorie content and indulgence of food impact hormonal responses, affecting feelings of satiety and hunger regulation.
    01:01:02 🏋‍♂ Beliefs and mindsets can also impact exercise outcomes, suggesting a significant interplay between psychology and physiology.
    01:02:39 🏥 Simply believing that daily activities, like work, mimic exercise can lead to improvements in health metrics such as blood pressure and body weight.
    01:05:23 🧠 While thoughts from the prefrontal cortex may not directly impact muscle growth, they can affect basic bodily functions like stress response through neural pathways.
    01:06:06 🐀 A study on rats demonstrates a pathway from the prefrontal cortex to the hypothalamus, controlling stress responses, which has implications for understanding psychosomatic effects in humans.
    01:10:06 💡 The placebo effect, influenced by genetics like the CT Gene, varies among individuals, showing different levels of response to placebo conditions.
    01:12:21 🧬 Genetic variations, such as the CT Gene, correlate with differences in placebo response, indicating a biological basis for individual susceptibility to the placebo effect.

    Hey Andrew, I’m immensely grateful and thankful for every piece of content you’ve created.
    Any chance you’ve thought about a video related to sports betting and gambling; how it affects the developing brain, human mindset and how both negatively impact our mental and emotional health “blindly” in adolescents and adults? I feel there are major placebo implications related to this topic as well and am curious as to what science based research has to say regarding gambling addictions, the view of rapid monetary rewards and hits to our self-esteem. Especially with both fields becoming so widespread legally and easily accessible.

    Rating: 8.0/10 (Rank 107 out of 202)
    In Short: Belief can literally change your brain...
    Notes: This is an outlier huberman podcast, as it is concise and to the point. I kind of enjoyed this style for a niche podcast like this--when these are 2+ hours it can be a bit too much. A nice mention of a handful of past podcasts (Lembke and Ali Krumb) who talk a bit about mindset and belief, and with some nice mentioning of a handful of studies. There was a little mechanism throughout, but not really necessary to just reiterate the point that placebo, which is just believing something will happen, actually causes physiological and neurological changes to happen. This idea kind of blows my mind, and having an entire podcast where that is just stated a dozen or so times, as it is here, was really nice and well done. A good niche podcast!

    I used tDCS for a few years with great results (depression/addiction) and later read a paper that suggested tDCS itself WAS generating the placebo response. This fascinated me because if you can deliberately facilitate the placebo effect the limitations could just be material? i.e. You can reverse depression but not repair a broken bone.
    I am also amazed at how many people think the placebo effect is so common that the positive results of taking something like Vit D or any new supplement "may just be placebo" as if it is MORE likely to be the case when the double blind studies show that only a small percentage of people show clinical results when given a placebo.

Your explanation of COMT and how a variation of the gene, could explain why an individual may or may not react/respond to a placebo peaked my interest. Not only that, the COMT’s association with an individual’s personality and stress reactions are fascinating. A brief trip down the internet rabbit hole about COMT produced so much information and I definitely want to know more! Thx!

She recovered once we found people who knew how to work with this - it wasn't the medical system.... Dr Porges describes the nervous system as the intervening variable, often not considered in science and medicine. I am sure it would be a great episode.

    Andrew, is there a possibility of a more structured course looking at everything you touch upon in your lab podcast, aimed at MDs? As a recently graduated doctor, I don’t have enough time to go through all the episodes, but find it essential to keeping up to date with the research. If the course could involve short test sections to help with recall, this would make it even better.

    Hi dr Huberman - loved the episode! I know it might be a dangerous topic for you to cover, since there's so much "esoteric" nonsense being said about it, but I would love to hear your thoughts on the science of left-hemisphere vs right-hemisphere. I've read both of the big books of Ian McGilchrist, and unfortunately he really harms his case by using his insights about the brain to support a weird, Hegelian interpretation of history. But the opening chapters of both of these books are really fascinating and to me it seems very well backed by scientific studies. But I know that in mainstream neuroscience this emphasis on left and right hemisphere differences is sort of frowned upon. I would love to hear your dissection of why McGilchrist, and others, are so wrong, since to me his argument that these two hemispheres have a very different basic approach to the world seems quite convincing to me.

    I love your videos. I'll listen to them before bed sometimes tho I do wind up switching between multiple podcasts at times. Multitasking helps calm my nerves at times.
    So here's a theory just based of intuition and past experiences/memories. There is not simply bipolar as past psychologist has thought it's not as they had assumed which is what they did. They made many assumptions so they wound up treating the symptoms and not the source. Some neuroscientist seem to have understood this and brain scans are so much more helpful in a sense than simply guessing on what someone is dealing with based on what they tell you and what you can observe which what most doctors and psychiatrist or psychologist observe is not at the level of someone with Asperger's who has any sorta interest the field of medicine/psychology/pharmacology.
    I kinda am realizing that the thyroid may be the cause of multiple supposed disorders or issues that affects millions and millions of people. There are many natural remedies/supplements that could basically improve many people's quality of life by a lot but yet there has not been the break thru to realize it is not simply just bipolar it is likely a thyroid/endocrine system disorder that causes some people to have these enhanced senses and urges. Basically our brains are turned up with animal instincts in comparison to a just regular person but how someone handles these enhanced senses is very dependent on genetics, home life/environment, and their base intelligence which would also fall under genetics but it's a very specific part that is important. Asperger's as well as ADHD are likely not much different and quite possibly like the same exact base as regular autism that people think of. Just how a person handles these enhanced senses is going to be both dependent on their genes, their home life and the personality they cultivated from the combination of those two things.
    Basically a fuck ton of disorders stem from these thyroid/endocrine system issues and I'm not entirely sure why the fuck no one else has really realized this since the doctor's are still ass backwards in how they are treating people with these issues and it kinda like it could have made all the difference in some people's lives to have understood what they were actually dealing with and not just be labeled depressive, or autistic or ADHD without explaining why they are actually feeling the way they do which comes back to the enhanced senses and animal like instincts/urges.
    I have a certain level of pattern recognition that tells me there is something solid to this theory I have. It may not be exactly right but I'm guessing the research down the line will line up with what I'm thinking but I'm not sure if the research is already leaning towards what I'm saying or even if other people have come to this realization/theory but had it shut down due to how it may affect profits in the medical institutions: psychiatrist, doctor's, and the big pharma.

    "Exploring the Robust Link between Hypnosis and Placebo Effects:
    One paramount inquiry arises: Can we discern a sturdy correlation between the effects of hypnosis and the placebo effect?
    Additionally, a pivotal aspect yet to be fully elucidated pertains to the strategic alteration of mindset or belief systems to optimize the benefits of the placebo effect. Mere acknowledgment of non-established scientific effects without thorough research may inadvertently reinforce uncertainty rather than maximise the desired outcomes.
    Thus, how can we methodically adjust our mindset, within the realms of scientific inquiry, to achieve the most favourable outcomes?
    I would like to conclude my comment by conveying my heartfelt appreciation for the remarkable dedication you have shown towards advancing public education. Your invaluable efforts are truly commendable and deeply cherished
