Scarlett and Gia Lacqua talk about Allostatic Load Gia is a widely-regarded trauma-informed empowerment coach, international motivational speaker, women's leadership expert, children's book author, board officer, podcast host, and girl-mom. She empowers high-achieving women to break free from the relentless “never enough” cycle and redefine success on their own terms. Through her signature framework, Radical Prioritization, Gia guides women toward authentic alignment, helping them focus on what truly matters to create impactful, fulfilling lives. Gia is a catalyst for change, inspiring women to redefine what it means to lead, live, and thrive. Scarlett and Gia talked about allostatic load which is when we build up stress chemicals in the nervous system and get stuck in freeze, fight or flight. They also discussed the top regret of people who are dying, which is ‘I wasn't my authentic self.' In Gia's research 69% of people said they felt like they were never enough and 75% of people went through life by grinning and bearing it! With over 70% of Americans lacking self-esteem, and our innate negative bias that has our brains buying the fear that is sold through media and messaging, no wonder we're feeling anxious and overwhelmed! Gia offers some tips and hints on how we honor ourselves and gain perspective and prioritize. https://gialacqua.com/ Learn more About Scarlett here: https://chooselovemovement.org/

Sarah welcomes Paul Oneid to The Beyond Condition Podcast to delve into how we monitor progression, the psychology behind obsession and many of the factors that drive bodybuilders to relentlessly pursue success. Obsession is unique to the individual and it can be used both wisely and mindlessly.As competitive bodybuilders we strive to progress but what does that actually look like when competing in a subjective sport...We all have our reasons to compete and our own intrinsic drivers that push us to continually progress but it's the ability to stay clear in our endeavour that can become dampened. From comparison to others, social media pressure and not having clear vectors of progress we can end up lost without recognition to how far we have come on our journey.Discussions include:*Authenticity as a coach*Social media and intellectual consistency*Coaching and individualised programming*Lifestyle bodybuilding and competitive bodybuilding*Allostatic load and stress management*Progression as a bodybuilder*Marketing yourself as a coach*Communication and clarity*Burnout*Managing time and efficiency*Professional bodybuilding*The different phases as a bodybuilder*Identity*Stress management*Purpose and being present*Anxiety and therapy*Comparison to others*Sleep routine, quality and considerations*SupplementationFind Paul on Instagram @pauloneidWatch it here: https://youtu.be/NDao_6xYU14Get in touch and share this episode @sarahparker_bb

We need to develop the skills that are thought to be just in the zone of genius and make them commonplace. Dr. Erik Kormen (@ErikKorem) shares his expertise on high-performance technology and innovative thinking to reach maximum human potential. He shares how to unlock the power of tracking your fitness and recovery through his revolutionary fitness tracker, AIM7. “Stress is really not the enemy. It's the gateway to growth.” - Erik Korem Key Takeaways: Coaching: A good coach helps somebody unlock their potential or pull a roadblock out of the way. They identify what their client/athlete's strengths and weaknesses are. Coaches and teachers, mentors, advisors, and co-creators. A coaching relationship is a two-way street. The coach helps clients create a better possible future. In the process, both the athlete/client elevate the realm of possibilities and potential of life and the goals set. Adaptive Capacity: People who are the best in the world at what they do can adapt to tremendous levels of psycho-physiological stress. Part of it is genetic, and part of it is developed. So, just like any capability, people are wired with specific innate abilities, and they can constantly improve them. When someone exceeds their capacity to adapt to acute or chronic stress, they get injured, burn out, and develop physical and mental health issues. Adaptive capacity is training your stress responders so that your gas tank(resolve) is higher/bigger. This allows you to do more with less cost. Building this capacity involves five basic things: sleep, exercise, mental fitness, nutrition, and healthy relationships. Allostasis for Adaptation: When your body tries to achieve stability through change. Allostatic load is the cost that is incurred whenever you experience a stressor. Your adaptive capacity gets bigger if you can build more capacity for more allostatic load. When that happens, what once was incredibly taxing is now your baseline. There is a limit to this, but most people have yet to get close to their absolute capacity. This is, again, psycho-physical. It's both the capacity of mental processing as well as physiological processing.

Do you give yourself permission to rest? If you're like many people in caring professions, you worry that taking time out to look after yourself means not spending that time helping others. That thinking may have got you to your position now, but is it serving you, or is it time to update your operating system?The problem with rest is that we often confuse it with inaction. But rest from work doesn't have to mean rest from activity. As this week's guest, Nick Petrie discovered, for high achievers, rest could be going to the gym or Argentinian tango. Nick's research shows that the way to beat burnout is not to stop doing things altogether, but to find things you love to do, but that are entirely outside of your sphere of work.Choosing what you do outside of work needs to be done with care, however. If you're used to working in a fast-paced and competitive environment, a gym where everyone's visibly pushing themselves to beat their neighbour might not give you the release you need.But engaging in activities or hobbies that give you a complete break from work and allow you to reconnect with your body and emotions could be instrumental in preventing burnout.Listen to this episode toDiscover surprising factors that contribute to burnout.Hear examples from high-performing people about the patterns and correlations of burnout across different fields.Find out how people successfully manage burnout by finding activities that let them switch off and recharge.Episode highlights[00:04:41] Correlations of burnout[00:15:23] Opposite worlds[00:22:46] The risk of finding a world not opposite enough[00:26:22] Six types of opposite world[00:28:47] More correlations of burnout[00:32:31] Sharing in others' experiences[00:36:07] Creating mechanisms for yourself[00:38:11] The burnout curve[00:41:35] Allostatic overload[00:43:25] Three degrees of burn[00:46:08] Catching the warning signs in yourself and others[00:49:11] Nick's top tipsAbout the guestNick Petrie is a researcher and speaker on leadership, resilience and burnout prevention.

This week on the podcast Mikki speaks to Dr Peter Sterling about the allostatic stress load and its impact on health. The term “allostasis” has been coined to clarify ambiguities associated with the word “stress.” Allostasis refers to the adaptive processes that maintain homeostasis through the production of mediators such as adrenalin, cortisol and other chemical messengers.They discuss how Peter integrated his interests in neuroanatomy, physiology psychology and human behaviour/social issues etc. that then informed his career and the development of the stress model that considered social injustices. We also discuss how his informal anthropological research taught him about the stress response, and the pillars of health that he then wrote about.

Stress: We've all felt it, but have you ever wondered about the real toll it takes on your body over time? Today, we delve deep into the under-discussed health topic of 'Allostatic Load.' In simpler terms it refers to the accumulated effects of stress on your body, the balance between our fight-or-flight reactions and the relaxation processes. Ever felt extra jittery after an emotional upheaval, even when you thought a workout would help? Well, there's a reason for that. I'll discuss how stress, from various sources, stacks up in your system. I also touch on how to measure this "stress load" - from the rhythm of your heartbeat (HRV) to the general state of your immune function. Why should you care? The implications of a high allostatic load are immense, spanning from chronic diseases, and cognitive challenges, to unexpected weight gain and more. But don't jump off the treadmill just yet! I'm not advocating quitting exercise. Instead, I will walk you through the strategies to ease this load using the Biopsychosocial model. In today's episode, I'll also share personal stories (hint: stress-triggered acne), practical relaxation breathing techniques, the significance of our mindsets and appraisals, and the influence of our social circles. Dive in with us as we help you transform big stressors into little ones and smaller stressors into non-issues. After all, understanding stress is the first step in managing it. Keep calm and carry on listening
Calming the Fire Alarms - Allostatic Load, Window of Tolerance The Dysregulated Addict: Finding Spiritual Regulation Series Pt. 4 The 12-Step Buddhist Podcast Episode 099 https://podcast.compassionaterecovery.us Part 4: Balance in the Nervous System -Allostatic Load, Window of Tolerance This is where we encounter something called 'allostatic load.' Now, 'allostasis' is the process by which our body seeks to maintain stability, or homeostasis, through change. It's like a scale, constantly adjusting to keep balanced. But when we're exposed to repeated stressors, this scale can get tipped. The constant 'wear and tear' on our bodies, the continual need to adjust and readjust, can lead to what's known as allostatic load or overload. In the context of addiction, this allostatic load can become a heavy burden. The compulsion to seek and take a drug, the loss of control in limiting intake, and the emergence of a negative emotional state when access to the drug is prevented, all contribute to this load. Allostatic load is a term coined by Bruce McEwen and Eliot Stellar in 1993. It refers to the physiological consequences of chronic exposure to fluctuating or heightened neural or neuroendocrine response resulting from repeated or chronic stress. In simpler terms, it's the "wear and tear" on the body that accumulates as an individual is exposed to repeated or chronic stress. In the context of addiction, allostatic load can become a heavy burden. The compulsion to seek and take a drug, the loss of control in limiting intake, and the emergence of a negative emotional state when access to the drug is prevented - all these can add to our allostatic load.

M., McVeigh, K., Wager, T., Wald, L. L., Satpute, A. B., Quigley, K. S., Whitfield-Gabrieli, S., Barrett, L. F., Bianciardi, M. Abstract: The brain continuously anticipates the energetic needs of the body and prepares to meet those needs before they arise, a process called allostasis. In support of allostasis, the brain continually models the internal state of the body, a process called interoception. Using published tract-tracing studies in non-human animals as a guide, we previously identified a large-scale system supporting allostasis and interoception in the human brain with functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) at 3 Tesla. In the present study, we replicated and extended this system in humans using 7 Tesla fMRI (N = 91), improving the precision of subgenual and pregenual anterior cingulate topography as well as brainstem nuclei mapping. We verified over 90% of the anatomical connections in the hypothesized allostatic-interoceptive system observed in non-human animal research. We also identified functional connectivity hubs verified in tract-tracing studies but not previously detected using 3 Tesla fMRI. Finally, we demonstrated that individuals with stronger fMRI connectivity between system hubs self-reported greater interoceptive awareness, building on construct validity evidence from our earlier paper. Taken together, these results strengthen evidence for the existence of a whole-brain system supporting interoception in the service of allostasis and we consider the implications for mental and physical health.

Could you be stressed without even knowing about it? We're all created to be resilient and ready to face the challenges that will crop up in our lives, but it's possible that secret stressors that we didn't even know existed could be stealing a little bit of our energy and preparedness, making us a little less ready to conquer our next challenge. Listen in to find out what these unseen stressors could be in your life and what you can do to stop them from weakening you.Here's a $10 off coupon for your first order at Built Bar.

How healthy we are in part depends on the many different exposures we've had over our life – including to physical, psychological and social factors. Chronic exposure to psychosocial stress – for example, poverty or other disadvantage – leads to prolonged strain on the body. This weathering can make us physically ill before our time and prematurely age us. So what is psychosocial stress, how does it harm our health and what can be done about it? To discuss, our chief executive Dr Jennifer Dixon is joined by: Dr Michelle Kelly-Irving, a life course epidemiologist working on health inequalities and the social determinants of health. Michelle is a director at Inserm in Toulouse, part of France's National Institute of Health and Medical Research.

The key to high performance is building adaptive capacity, or the ability to take on physical and psychological stress and adapt."- Dr. Erik Korem "The five key pillars for building adaptive capacity are sleep, exercise, mental fitness, nutrition, and fostering and engaging in healthy relationships (community). Not only will these five pillars improve adaptive capacity, but they are the key to preventing the most common lifestyle diseases plaguing society (i.e., diabetes, obesity, and cardiovascular disease)." - Dr. Erik Korem “I maybe have a different concept on leadership. To me, leading is a verb. If you're leading, you're a leader. If you're swimming, you're a swimmer, if you're driving, you're a driver. If you're leading, you're by definition a leader. I define leading as being looked to in a particular moment to decide or perform an action based on your unique gifts and abilities. So by that definition, everybody is a leader. All rank and role really describe is how many people are hoping you get it right when it's your turn to wear the weight.” - Clint Bruce "Attention is the currency of performance." - Dr. Peter Haberl “That's what I've discovered in the lives of brilliant, prolific, healthy creatives, is that they have networks of people they leverage in the course of their work. That they learn from, that they were challenged by, that they gave great insight and purview into their own life and work, in such a way that they were able to receive feedback that helped them get better at what they do.” - Todd Henry "Restful and fulfilling sleep enables you to grow, adapt, and thrive. It creates the conditions for adaptation, so you can pursue audacious goals and thrive in uncertainty." - Dr. Erik Korem "Most exercise programs fail, not because the reps and sets are poorly designed, but because the program doesn't adjust for how much stress your body can adapt to that day! That's why Dr. Chris Morris' research and practical application of fluid periodization is the key for unlocking your performance potential." - Dr. Erik KoremSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

How's your stress level? How about your HRV? In this episode, Jeff and Matt revisit allostatic load and how everything happening in the world is impacting our nervous system and overall health.
Where you live, work, play and pray can impact your health. In this episode, Samilia Obeng-Gyasi, MD, MPH, discusses research studies and clinical trials that have shown how the social determinants of health and the healthcare inequities that impact many lower-economic populations can lead to cancer diagnoses in the later stages and poorer outcomes. Obeng-Gyasi is a James surgical oncologist and a researcher who specializes in breast cancer. Her research focuses in on how a person's income level and access to healthcare, as well as the financial and emotional stress of a cancer diagnosis and treatment, can result in more aggressive cancers, worse outcomes and even higher death rates. These issues are more pronounced in lower-income populations and among many minority groups, such as Black women. For example … “We've found that women with no health insurance or Medicaid presented with more advanced stages of breast cancer and had a worse overall mortality rate than patients with private health insurance,” Obeng-Gyasi said. Other areas of her research look at the Allostatic load of breast cancer patients and how it impacts their long-term outcome. Allostatic load is a way to measure the cumulative burden of stress in a patient. “We've found that [cancer] patients with a higher Allostatic load have a higher risk of death from their cancer,” Obeng-Gyasi said, adding additional research is trying to determine if a person with a long-term, high Allostatic load would have an increased cancer risk. Another research study found that Black women with breast cancer have a higher rate of what Obeng-Gyasi calls a “rapid relapse.” As a result of these findings, Obeng-Gyasi has worked with Barbara Andersen, PhD, a James psychologist and an expert in reducing stress. “The results of the study are compelling,” Obeng-Gyasi said. “Patients who participated have a better chance of survival and a lower rate of their cancer coming back.”

As we hit the two-year anniversary of Covid starting to shut down our societies another stressor hits, a war in Europe. While living through a global pandemic like Covid was a challenging new stressor for most people, the talk and threats of nuclear war might stir up old feelings and trauma for those of a certain age. In this episode, Matt talks about his own retraumatization and how it is impacting his heart rate variability and mental health.

In this episode, MEEDA receives special guest Dr Lily O'Hara, Associate Professor of Public Health at Qatar University and Health At Every Size advocate. In this episode, Dr O'Hara explains what is weight stigma, why she prefers the term "Weight Oppression" and what is the link between Weight Oppression (WO) and Eating Disorders, and why all this made her take the conscious decision not to use the term "Obesity" anymore. Dr O'Hara also debunks the myth of a [higher] weight causing ill health. More on this in the video "Poodle Science"She evokes the ubiquity of WO in the Middle East and what the most recent research on the harmful effects of WO implies for Public Health campaigns and Healthcare practitioners - in the Middle East and abroad: Increased mortality (Tomiyama et al. 2018), Increased morbidity from chronic diseases and conditions (Tomiyama et al. 2018), Higher blood pressure (Unger et al. 2017), Type 2 diabetes mellitus (Wirth et al. 2014), Metabolic syndrome (Pearl et al. 2017), Allostatic load (lipid/metabolic dysregulation, glucose metabolism and inflammation) (Vadiveloo and Mattei 2017), Cortisol reactivity (Schvey, Puhl, and Brownell 2014), Oxidative stress (Tomiyama et al. 2014), Higher weight, diabetes risk, cortisol level, oxidative stress level, C-reactive protein level, eating disturbances, depression, anxiety, body image dissatisfaction and negatively associated with self-esteem.At the end, Dr O'Hara shares what all healthcare professionals can do to avoid WO, and how she aims to train Public Health professionals that are critically aware, and put social justice at the core of their programmes.

Our previous Science with Sergio episode was focused on a preprint paper discussing predictive coding and fatigue. This was a pretty dense paper that relied heavily on Bayesian models of cognition. Basically, this means that our brains our constantly trying to predict what is going to happen, and that we are making little updates all the time to what we are doing (and what we are predicting) to make those predictions more accurate. Now, this may sound like some pretty esoteric stuff…and it is! So, for this episode, we figured we’d go to one of the sources and cover Karl Friston’s “free energy principle” for brain modeling. Friston has done a lot to popularize some of these concepts, so we chose his review paper “The free-energy principle: A unified brain theory?” Now, you may be wondering what esoteric models for thinking about consciousness and cognition have to do with exercising. Well, a lot of folks in the fitness space spend a lot of time talking about mindset. Rather than talking about mindset, we at the Legion Strength & Conditioning podcast would like to talk about prediction error and updating our priors. (Sidenote: This is a really great marketing strategy! You should try it!) Any sort of exercise performance is going to be largely mediated by the brain. Want to get less tired? Want to have better technique or learn skills more quickly? Want to learn to intuitively pass your way through workouts. All of these can be better understood through Friston’s free-energy principle, even if it doesn’t translate into immediately actionable fitness advice. Oh and in this episode I wonder what the deal is with positive prediction errors — meaning what happens when we make a significant prediction error, and the outcome is positive. The deal is dopamine. Dopamine is released when you receive an unexpected reward.

Angela is with Alex Manos - mentor, lecturer, coach and functional medicine practitioner. Alex uses the concept of resilience to create a holistic approach to health and performance and in Part 1 of this 2 part interview, he discusses with Angela physical, mental, emotional and spiritual resilience. In this fascinating in-depth look at what it truly means to be resilient Alex explains how being resilient is all about flexibility and being able to adapt to the needs placed upon us. If you can understand how to develop a strong sense of self and build your resilience then you will be able to put your best self forward and thrive. KEY TAKEAWAYS Physical resilience is our ability to bounce back from an adverse event and is related to areas such as cortisol levels, blood pressure and blood glucose. Homeostasis is achieving a set point which you seek to maintain. Allostasis is the idea that we have to adapt according to the circumstances and environment to maintain homeostasis. Allostatic overload is the concept that when the stress system has been overwhelmed, you no longer return to the set point. View stress holistically, there is controlled stress and uncontrollable stress, you should be looking for resiliency for the things you can’t control. Self-awareness is a foundational element for resilience because you need to be aware of what is going on for you both internally and externally to understand where you are. Resilience is flexibility in everything, it’s about being able to adapt to the needs that are being placed upon us. Emotional resilience is being able to regulate your emotional state during challenging times. We can cultivate positive emotional states consciously such as gratitude and love and this has an impact on our HRV, immune system and stress. Spiritual resilience is about understanding your needs and having a purpose in your life. You need to understand what your values are and what’s important to you.

This episode is the audio version of our paper, titled "An Allostatic Theory of Oxytocin", that was recently published in Trends in Cognitive Sciences.Here is the abstract:Oxytocin has garnered considerable interest for its role in social behavior, as well as for the potential of intranasal administration to treat social difficulties. How- ever, current theoretical models for the role of oxytocin in social behavior pay little consideration to its evolutionary and developmental history. This article aims to broaden our understanding of the role of oxytocin in social behavior by adopting an ethological approach through the lens of Nikolaas Tinbergen’s 'four questions' – how does oxytocin work; how does the role of oxytocin change during development; how does oxytocin enhance survival; and how did the oxytocin system evolve? We argue that oxytocin is most accurately described as an allostatic hormone that modulates both social and non-social behavior by maintaining stability through changing environments.

Definition – The cumulative adverse effect on the body when allostasis occurs too frequently (as the body is subjected to repeated stressors). In other words, when we are in fight or flight and there is no actual saber-toothed tiger to be found. We know it as the common, every day modern life made more acute by a pandemic. So, if you are feeling tired, beat up, unfocused and generally like crap, there is a reason. The good news, you can do something about it. "Never underestimate the value of a good cry.” – Mark J. Silverman Today on Mastering Midlife: We need to be kind to ourselves, no matter how cool we are, we are under stress. Stress, without something to fight, run from or hide from, turns on our bodies. You know it… constant media input (news, twitter, social media) ain’t good for us. If your mind is going crazy, write a gratitude list. If you are plagued with too much emotional energy in your body, move till you are exhausted. Limited Time!

How Chronic Stress Contributes To Cognitive Decline We often think of brain disorders as separate from the body. Anything that affects the brain occurred due to factors that affected the brain. But our understanding of the relationship between the brain and the body is far too linear to fully grasp the complex network of interactions that occur. We are seeing now how limited our knowledge is. More young people are dealing with depression. We believe this is due to an elevated allostatic load brought about by chronic stress. The thing about chronic stress is that your body gets exposed to cortisol for a longer period of time. This leads to a disruption of your body’s normal processes. To put it simply, your body being put under a long-term, stress-response state result in health problems. While completely eliminating stress from your life might be impossible, having a better understanding of how stress affects your physical and mental health is key. We’re at the tip of the iceberg, but we have to keep on digging. The more we comprehend this fascinating, multidirectional interaction between the brain and the body, the more we can unearth the many facets of what contributes to mental well-being. In this show you’ll learn about: How your environment is key to influencing our health and well-being throughout your lifespan How your body’s wear and tear is associated with your mental health What you can do to achieve an optimal level of living In today’s show, you will get a rich conversation on stress, allostatic load, and how it affects our cognitive fitness. Listen To The Podcast Now. About Our Guest Prof. Zoltan Sarnyai is a medically-trained, PhD neuroscientist with real research interests in the neurobiological mechanisms of stress and psychiatric disorders including addiction, schizophrenia, and depression. Prior to his role in James Cook University in Australia, he was a university lecturer in pharmacology and a fellow of Pembroke College at the University of Cambridge. He has been awarded the Curt P. Richter Award by the International Society of Psychoneuroendocrinology for his work in neuropeptides and brain functions. He was also the recipient of the Dupont Warren Fellowship from the Department of Psychiatry at Harvard Medical School. Stress and Allostatic Load His Background In Neuroscience Prof Zoltan shares being disillusioned while in medical school and getting excited over research involving neuropeptides and brain function. An outdated book on stress research piqued Prof Zoltan’s interest. A research article on the impact of social hierarchy and general health among wild baboons opened Prof Zoltan to the idea of the environment influencing the body and brain. His Fascination In Mental Health And The Environment Our understanding of mental health and the brain in relation to the body has evolved over time. Brain disorders were seen as something related to brain function. The brain does not work in isolation, but there is a multi-directional communication occurring between the brain and the body. We don’t understand a lot about the interactions between the brain and the body. Now, we know that the gut microbiome has a lot to do with how the brain functions and the brain directs the local environment for these bacteria to change. How Stress Affects The Brain and Gut Chronic psychological stress and trauma affect both the body and the brain. Chronic stress leads to a leaky gut syndrome, which leads to bacteria interacting in the bloodstream. Immune cells react and activate our stress biology. The body develops more cortisol. Things in our bodies are interconnected in a nonlinear fashion making it more difficult to grasp. Variables That Contribute To Stress Resilience Our genetic makeup contributes to our susceptibility or resilience to stress. We have genes that are related to our biological stress axis. We can’t do anything about our genetic background, but we can do something about what happens to us, specifically during pregnancy. Not just environmental stress, but environmental toxins like alcohol and nutritional factors during pregnancy also play a role. A low-protein diet during pregnancy has lasting consequences in the physical and mental health of a baby. There’s also a long generational influence of the things that happened to our great grandparents that we see affecting their descendants. How To Achieve An Optimal Level Of Living Since we are already aware that stress, trauma, nutritional factors, and others have an impact on mental health, we can get started on prevention. Our focus on studying the genetic makeup of complex, chronic non-communicable disease will only explain a percentage of the condition but not all. Prof Zoltan talks about a study on mice that had the gene for Huntington’s Disease. Exercise and a complex cage environment were able to delay neurological deterioration in the mice. The early environment of a human is key to the development of the brain and mental health, with the first three years of life being critical. Nurturing makes a big difference. Early neglect has long-term consequences. Prof Zoltan shares the case of what happened in Romanian orphanages in the 1980s. A high-fat, high-carbohydrate diet is bad because it creates a low-grade, inflammatory response in the body. Exercise creates more newly-born cells in the hippocampus. Having more newly-born cells in the hippocampus contributes to better cognitive fitness. Thus, physical exercise helps to improve cognitive emotional and behavioural measures. The brain is very plastic. So while we cannot eliminate stress and trauma, we can devise interventions to help individuals recover. The Future Direction Of His Work Prof Zoltan shares his ongoing projects, one on integrating different biological measures into an index to predict either disease development or treatment response, and another on allostatic load and predicting mental illness. Allostatic load is the wear and tear of the body. It measures the dysregulation that happens in the body when the body is chronically exposed to cortisol, the stress hormone. An elevated allostatic load is being seen among young people between 15 and 25. There is a link between elevated allostatic load and mental well-being. Elevated allostatic load is associated with cognitive decline. Major depression is characterized by a certain degree of cognitive impairment. Since sleep increases our bodies’ ability to handle the challenges in the day, and stress hormones are highly biologically active, sleep research is expected to deliver exciting results.

In Episode 7 Ben, mark & Jarod chat about one of the most used terms in rehab - 'Load'! What does load mean? Can we define it? Allostatic load model Stress bucket Can we simply apply this to pain? Can we easily modify all 'load' especially psychosocial? Do we need patient buy in?
Over the past 20 years, my guest on today's show, , has been trying to recommend pillows for his patients that would put their head in the correct position so that they could get a great night's sleep and wake up rested. He could not find one, and he would have patients purchase soft down pillows and stuff them under their necks. He found that a conventional pillow would loose its shape and end up on the floor. The problem is that a pillow is for your head and you can not support your head to get a great night sleep. But one day he was watching the movie “Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon” in 2000 and the two actors came out of the room after “cuddling” all night. The camera gave a quick glimpse of the room they came out of. It showed what the two actors slept on, and to his amazement it was just a thin pad for their body and a block of wood in lieu of a pillow for their head. In that lightbulb moment, Dr. Martone invented the exact sleeping tool we discuss on today's podcast. He's one of the smartest guys I've ever talked to when it comes to sleep, so prepare to optimize your rest and recovery biomechanics like never before! During our discussion, you'll discover: -How Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon inspired Dr. Martone's invention... One of the props was a piece of wood, not as a pillow, but for their neck Peter had shoulder issues, couldn't identify the cause While camping, he used a shoe under his neck for sleeping; woke up well rested Used a shoe, and other odd objects for sleeping; shoulder and other health issues were resolved -Surprising problems caused by sleeping on one's side... 90% of Peter's patients have some type of damage to their cervical curve in the neck We lose the curve doing day to day activities, and there's nothing to repair it at night 98% of patients who lose the curve in their neck develop an unnatural curve in their lower back This eventually leads to scoliosis in the lower back The portion of the brain: main function is to control the body's 80% of proprioception into the brain comes from the spinal cord The vermis atrophies due to loss of proprioception It affects the pre-frontal cortex (executive functioning) Decreasing the curve in the spine severely limits glymphatic drainage Why we toss and turn at night: Pain centers and nerve centers are very close together When you fall asleep on your side, you can only stay in that position for a short period of time Body should be in a "neutral sleeping position" Alcohol inhibits pain sensors. You stay in the same position longer, and wake up in pain OURA ring If you didn't get all that, get this: Loss of the cervical curve = degeneration of the spine. It also causes the vermis to atrophy, which negatively affects the pre-frontal cortex. Side sleeping causes pain and discomfort, which in turn affects the quality of our sleep. The advantages of sleeping on the back versus the side or stomach... Use a pillow for the neck rather than the head Restore the cervical curve and decrease lumbar tension -How to train yourself to sleep on your back... Just start on your back 1-2 hours per night will be enough to help restore the cervical curve in your neck : 5-10 degree angle, should go to the base of your spine The body will eventually be able to go through the night on your back Total 2-3 month transition Sleeping on your back, you distribute your body weight over the greatest amount of space -The little-known hack called "Remembering" that may help with sleep problems... Peter struggled to sleep due to numerous things he was thinking about Needed to be "in control" of something Visualized people sitting in a specific seat after giving a talk; he went right to sleep Focus on something, but don't think about it You can't think yourself to sleep; you have to remember yourself to sleep Dreams are how the mind categorizes the day's events The further back in time you can remember, the more efficacious this technique will be -Ways to control your core temperature while sleeping... Allostatic load: Hierarchy of needs in bodily functions (heart pumping vs. growing fingernails) Your body cares more about your core temperature than even the immune system We get sick because there's a finite amount of energy our body can distribute Maintaining the body's core temperature maintains the allostatic load in our entire body Keep your core as warm as possible; keep hands, feet and head exposed People like to sleep on their side so they can curl up, feel protected Use a for a similar effect "Head garage" Place a pillow over your head, just above the nose -More little-known sleep hacks... First 2 hours of the day are the most productive and alert The story of Edison's balls... Write things down, then go to sleep.

Heather and Robyn are back to co-host this episode of RD Real Talk, talking about stress, and Allostatic Load (or overload). We're both in a certain phase of life where "overwhelm" comes easily, and we have to consistently reassess how much our buckets can hold. Allostatic Load: "Stressed or stressed out: What is the difference?" Robyn wrote a great blog post about Allostatic load, so if you want to dive in further, read on. Things we discuss: how running can be part of joyful movement and a balanced relationship with health exercise why I (Heather) didn't go after that half-marathon PR real life, imperfect human moments how to tell when your bucket might be WAY TOO full Questions or feedback, or just a story about allostatic load in your life?

Writer and researcher Lindsay Shaw Taylor, PhD, joined the Primal Blueprint team in 2015, collaborating with Mark Sisson of Mark’s Daily Apple to deliver content on the topics of health, science, and primal living. Lindsay earned her doctorate in 2008 in Social and Personality Psychology with a focus on self-evaluation and goal pursuit. Her education and personal experience with Primal living is applied daily as she moderates the new and thriving Keto Reset Facebook group, offering knowledge and support to folks following a ketogenic diet. Lindsay talks with us today about the role of psychology in making significant changes to their diet and fitness. She shares some keys for reframing thought patterns that keep people stuck, and discusses the lifestyle factors that have led to her own health and wellbeing.

Sign up for our highlights email and each week we’ll send you: An interesting scientific paper we've read with actionable advice. Nonsense we read/heard this week and why it's nonsense. Something awesome we read/listened to this week and why it's awesome. I was inspired to record this podcast by a discussion that took place on the Lower Insulin Facebook group. I love the conversation that goes on over there, but like many of debates we see around the Internet, the conversation is somewhat one-dimensional. Low-carb, high-fat, moderate protein, intermittent fasting and you'll be okay. After working with close to 1,000 athletes to improve their health, performance and longevity, we know that's not always true, and we’re confident that a complete solution must give consideration to everything we outline in this episode. The five things (in no particular order): 1. Eat a minimally processed diet food free of added sugar and vegetable oils (processed fats). Because processed foods: Are less nutrient-dense. Are designed to make you overeat. Increase insulin responses due to processing. Alter the gut microbiota unfavourably. Translocate endotoxins such as LPS across the gut wall. This induces inflammation and hyperinsulinaemia. Induce leptin and insulin resistance centrally which leads to overeating. 2. Get sufficient sleep and Sunlight! 3. Appropriately manage stress, social connectedness and purpose. Consider stress of dieting. 4. Move like a human, i.e. walk, stand, and occasionally lift heavy things. 5. Consider magnesium and zinc deficiency (especially in athletes). If you’re an athlete and you’re doing all of the above (and I mean doing not knowing) and you’re still not meeting your goals then we should talk! Book a free consultation online.

Dr. Tim Jackson is a doctor of Physical Therapy. He also studied nutritional biochemistry, digestive health and its systemic effects, as well as functional endocrinology. He helps people with all sorts of disorders over at HealYourbody.org. He also does online consults through his Heal Your Body Program. In this episode we talked about: What MTHFR means: (It's not your first thought. I know what you were thinking.) It stands for Methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase. (Say that three times fast.) It basically means that if you have it, you lack the ability to activate folic acid into methyl-folate. Then you don't have the useable form of folate and you have too much folic acid sitting around. That's when disorders start popping up. Miscarriages have been associated with MTHFR. Best place to get tested: 23andme.com. You will just get the raw data, no interpretations. Get interpretations at livewello.com or MTHFRSupport.com. Heterozygous means you have one copy Homozygous means you have two copies Polymorphism is a SNP (Single-nucleotide polymorphism) Genetics refers to actual mutations someone might have. Trisomy or Down's Syndrome are examples. Epigenetics are modifiable risk factors, which give us a predisposition to certain diseases or disorders. The key word is modifiable. They are not set in stone. "HG can be the straw that breaks the camel's back." Allostatic load means the sum total of internal and external stressors on the body. "It can take a disease from subclinical to clinical" (expressed). "Any stressor can effect the expression of genes." Exposome means everything you've been exposed to in your life. You can have too little or too much methylation. This effect neurotransmitter production (mood disorders), T-cells (infection and allergies), and Glutithione (which controls free radicals). Can Hyperemesis Gravidarum be an allergy to the hormones, the placenta or the baby? Short answer....YES. Neuro-immune is more accurate than "Auto-immune" to describe this. Liver Detox: Phase 1: oxydation Phase 2: conjugation-methylation Phase 3: Transport to the cell Milk Thistle supports Phase 1 detox. If phase 2 is not adequate, the byproducts of phase 1 sit around causing oxidative stress. B vitamins, NAC (N-acetyl cysteine-precursor to glutithione), Glutithione and Glycine support Phase 2 detox. Oxidative Stress causes all disorders, which go through 3 stages. Stage 1: energetic imbalance (you don't feel bad in this stage) Stage 2: Functional: Fibromyalgia or chronic fatigue syndrome. You feel the effects but there are no biomarkers to show what's going on. Stage 3: lesional-can be seen on an MRI (like Multiple Sclerosis) Inflammation causes fatigue ad premature aging. Lipid Peroxidation: damage to cell membranes What to do about it: Support the methylation cycle Reduce oxidative stress Diet: Clean out processed foods and additives. Remove sugar and gluten. Consider removing dairy Heal your gut (mood disorders are related to leaky gut.) Just because you don't have symptoms, doesn't mean you don't have a disorder. "The system that is disordered might not be what's expressing itself." Supplements: Glutithione: Oral liposomal form, transdermal creams and oral s-acetyl-glutithione Magnesium and zinc are cofactors for methylfolate and other b vitamins. B12 needs methylfolate. Taking methylfolate without B12 could cause "methyl-trapping". To learn more about this, check out my paper about the importance of Magnesium, Zinc and B vitamins. Sign up here and I'll email the paper to you. For more suggestions, check out Dr. Jackson's website. He suggests not taking supplements all at once but after changing your diet to reduce insulin (which is pro-inflammatory), increasing healthy fats (which fuels the liver, tissues and cells and helps balance hormones) then layer in supplements, one at a time. Minerals first, magnesium, then zinc. Then add B vitamins, starting with B12. The last supplement to add is methylfolate. Liver, gallbladder and pancreas: We know the importance of the liver. The gallbladder helps with bile flow. Bile is dependent on glutithione. If you're not methylating in the liver and the bile is backed up, toxins back up. This can mess up our ability to process carbohydrates (diabetes is carbohydrate intolerance) and this has an effect on our pancreas, which produces insulin. If you want to get in touch with Dr. Jackson, you can visit his website at healyourbody.org. Check out his facebook page. Or email him at drtim072981@gmail.com. Let me know what you think! Does this connect some dots for you about your health?
Allostasis is defined in a manner that is clearly distinguished from Homeostasis, the allostatic response and allostatic load (overload) is also covered in this podcast.
