Concussions don't always show up on scans—but they can reshape mood, sleep, focus, and quality of life. In this direct conversation on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, Dr. Ayla Wolf—acupuncturist, funct/ional neurology practitioner, and author of The Concussion Breakthrough—explains why many post-concussion symptoms are missed, how autonomic nervous system dysregulation drives anxiety, and why brain inflammation is a crucial, often misunderstood piece. We cover practical, non-pharmaceutical strategies (vision–vestibular rehab, targeted drills, acupuncture, clean nutrition, toxin reduction) and how to track progress with clear, objective markers. If you or someone you love has “mystery” brain fog, dizziness, or mood shifts after a head impact, this episode is a grounded roadmap to smarter recovery. Guest: Dr. Ayla Wolf About the Guest  : Dr. Ayla Wolf is a Doctor of Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine, founder of Healing Response: Acupuncture & Functional Neurology, host of Life After Impact: The Concussion Recovery Podcast, and author of the 600-page guide The Concussion Breakthrough: Discover the Missing Pieces to Recovery. She blends science and integrative care to help patients resolve complex, lingering effects of head injury. Key Takeaways: Concussions are often invisible injuries. Many never receive a formal diagnosis; symptoms like anxiety, depression, brain fog, and sleep issues may surface months later. Standard scans can miss functional problems. ER CTs rule out bleeds and fractures but don't diagnose concussion or dysautonomia. Autonomic nervous system (ANS) dysregulation is central. Imbalances in sympathetic/parasympathetic tone can show up as racing heart, sweating, overwhelm, and heightened stress reactivity. Brain inflammation is misunderstood. It can be regional (not “whole brain”), influenced by diet, toxins, and lifestyle; medicine lacks a single “blockbuster” drug solution. Assessment must be individualized. No one-size protocol—patients present with different blends of neck/vestibular/ocular/cognitive issues. Use objective markers to track progress. Balance tests, eye-movement integrity, and positional challenges help verify whether therapies are working. Therapy can be creative and multimodal. Vision–vestibular drills, targeted movement, cervical care, and acupuncture can modulate blood flow, immune activity, and attention networks. Lifestyle matters. Whole foods, clean water, toxin reduction, and sleep hygiene lower neuroinflammatory load and support recovery. Multiple concussions compound risk. Early “compensations” can fail after later hits, worsening symptoms and extending recovery timelines. Validation is therapeutic. Clear exams plus education help patients feel believed—and engaged—in their healing plan.

In this episode, we dive into the often-overlooked root cause behind many common health complaints: autonomic nervous system dysfunction. We break down how symptoms like brain fog, poor sleep, gut issues, and even mood changes can all be interconnected, with autonomic imbalance acting as the missing link. Using easy-to-understand analogies, such as dimmer switches and warning lights, we explore how stress, resilience, sleep quality, and even the gut microbiome play vital roles in your overall health.We also take a closer look at practical tools you can use to assess your health, from wearable sleep trackers to gut microbiome tests. Plus, we share ways to actively restore balance, whether through sleep hygiene, exercise, or vagus nerve stimulation, and highlight the surprising connections between conditions like migraines, IBS, and fibromyalgia.If you or someone you know struggles with multiple unexplained symptoms or chronic health conditions, this episode is for you!

Lately, I've been thinking about the increasing use of the term “dysregulated.” This is an effective term that expresses having difficulty accessing calm in the body and brain after a stressful situation. When we think about nervous system regulation, we often overlook the fact that its foundations are largely built in the first years of life. Though we don't “remember” this time, it continues to influence us as adults.The good news is that, even if our early experiences weren't ideal, we can still move toward greater attachment security, and thus better emotional regulation, positive beliefs about ourselves and others, and healthier ways of relating.In this episode, I discuss:* What attachment is and why the first three years are so foundational* How our nervous system develops through our early attachment experiences, specifically,* Right and left brain differentiation* Limbic system* Autonomic nervous system, which includes the vagus nerve (that puts us into rest, digest and connect)* The main attachment styles and how they shape our beliefs, emotions, and behaviors* The influence of early stress, high cortisol life-long regulation* Why culture's "left brain dominance" can leave us disconnected from empathy, embodiment, and nuance* Practical ways we can start to nurture secure attachment and grow more self-compassion, even later in lifeFor me, this is not about blaming parents but about understanding the impacts of arguably the most important time in our lives. This is also a reminder that it is never too late for us to learn to become responsive caregivers to ourselves.If you have a specific situation, concern or question that you would like me to react to in a future newsletter/episode, please email that to support@courtneysnydermd.com.

In this episode of the Bendy Bodies Podcast, Dr. Linda Bluestein sits down once again with fellow pain specialist Dr. Pradeep Chopra to take listeners on a guided “walk” through the GI tract. From teeth to the stomach and beyond, they uncover how connective tissue disorders like EDS (Ehlers-Danlos Syndromes) and HSD (Hypermobility Spectrum Disorders) along with POTS (Postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome) and MCAS (Mast cell activation syndrome), can trigger unexpected abdominal pain and digestive challenges. Along the way, they explore overlooked diagnoses like Eagle Syndrome, SIBO (Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth), and MALS (Median Arcuate Ligament Syndrome), while also revealing hacks and strategies that empower patients to better understand and manage their symptoms. This is part one of a two-part deep dive into GI issues you won't want to miss. Takeaways Why EDS patients often have “dancing teeth” and unique dental vulnerabilities How Eagle Syndrome can masquerade as severe TMJ pain or headaches The hidden role of MCAS in driving throat and GI inflammation Why overlooked compression syndromes like MALS and SMA cause devastating abdominal pain A surprising at-home hack with beets that can reveal slowed gut motility Find the episode transcript here.

In this episode of Talking Sleep, host Dr. Seema Khosla welcomes Dr. Luca Baldelli, a neurologist from the University of Bologna and Treasurer-Elect of the International REM Sleep Behavior Disorder Study Group, to discuss breakthrough research on predicting which RBD patients will develop neurodegenerative diseases. Building on the AASM's updated RBD guidelines, Dr. Baldelli presents compelling evidence for using simple autonomic reflex testing to identify patients at highest risk for phenoconversion to conditions like Parkinson's disease and dementia with Lewy bodies. His research demonstrates that objective autonomic testing, particularly orthostatic assessments, can reveal early neurogenic orthostatic hypotension that precedes overt neurodegeneration by years. The conversation explores practical clinical applications: How can sleep medicine practitioners implement these screening protocols? What constitutes abnormal autonomic function in RBD patients? How do we interpret changes over time, and when should patients be referred for neurological evaluation? Dr. Baldelli shares his longitudinal monitoring framework that could transform how we counsel RBD patients about their future risk. This episode addresses critical questions about biomarker development in prodromal neurodegeneration, the timeline of autonomic changes, and evidence-based approaches to patient discussions about prognosis. Dr. Baldelli also discusses current research initiatives and potential therapeutic interventions for high-risk patients. Whether you're a sleep medicine physician, neurologist, or researcher interested in neurodegenerative diseases, this episode provides essential insights into improving early detection and patient care in RBD. Join us for this informative discussion that bridges sleep medicine and neurology to enhance clinical decision-making and patient outcomes.

The practice of immersing your body in ice water is growing in popularity based on claims of improved mood and well-being, muscle recovery after exercise, even longevity. But this ignores the well-established fact that sudden cardiac death is a real risk due to coronary spasm, causing heart attack, and unstable heart rhythms due to a situation called autonomic conflict. There are a growing number of lawsuits that have been filed for the many sudden cardiac deaths that have occurred. So let's discuss what we know about this concept of cold water immersion and why it is such a dangerous practice. • Immersion in water around 15°C/60°F triggers dangerous physiological responses• Cold exposure causes coronary arteries to spasm, potentially leading to heart attack• Most adults have some degree of endothelial dysfunction, making them vulnerable• "Autonomic conflict" occurs when both nervous system branches activate simultaneously• Multiple lawsuits have been filed over deaths from ice baths and polar plunges• Safer alternatives exist for achieving the claimed benefits of cold exposure• Cold showering (starting warm and gradually cooling) may offer similar benefits with less risk________________________________________________________________________________For BiotiQuest probiotics including Sugar Shift, go here.A 15% discount is available for Defiant Health podcast listeners by entering discount code UNDOC15 (case-sensitive) at checkout.*_________________________________________________________________________________Get your 15% Paleovalley discount on fermented grass-fed beef sticks, Bone Broth Collagen, low-carb snack bars and other high-quality organic foods here.* For 12% off every order of grass-fed and pasture-raised meats from Wild Pastures, go here._____________________________________________________________________________MyReuteri and Gut to Glow can be found here: oxiceutics.comSupport the showBooks: Super Gut: The 4-Week Plan to Reprogram Your Microbiome, Restore Health, and Lose Weight Wheat Belly: Lose the Wheat, Lose the Weight and Find Your Path Back to Health; revised & expanded ed

The pelvic floor isn't just another muscle—so why do we treat it like one?The pelvic floor is different from every other muscle or area in the body, and if we don't acknowledge that, we won't get the best results for our patients.This is a replay of one of our most thought-provoking episodes! While I'm out on maternity leave, we're bringing back some of the best conversations we've had over 500+ episodes.In this episode, we break down five key ways the pelvic floor is unique:✅ Autonomic innervation – The pelvic floor has both voluntary and involuntary control, making treatment more complex.✅ Unique anatomy & function – It doesn't have a typical origin/insertion like other muscles.✅ Interconnected with organs – Unlike most muscles, the pelvic floor is woven into multiple organ systems.✅ Emotional & psychosocial components – Trauma, stigma, and cultural attitudes impact pelvic health treatment.✅ You can't rest it – The pelvic floor is always in use, which makes healing more challenging.When we understand these differences, we can treat the pelvic floor more effectively—instead of relying on outdated approaches that don't take its complexity into account.Tune in to hear why there's no such thing as a simple pelvic floor patient!About UsNicole and Jesse Cozean founded Pelvic PT Rising to provide clinical and business resources to physical therapists to change the way we treat pelvic health.   PelvicSanity Physical Therapy (www.pelvicsanity.com) together in 2016.  It grew quickly into one of the largest cash-based physical therapy practices in the country.Through Pelvic PT Rising, Nicole has created clinical courses (www.pelvicptrising.com/clinical) to help pelvic health providers gain confidence in their skills and provide frameworks to get better patient outcomes.  Together, Jesse and Nicole have helped 600+ pelvic practices start and grow through the Pelvic PT Rising Business Programs (www.pelvicptrising.com/business) to build a practice that works for them! Get in Touch!Learn more at www.pelvicptrising.com, follow Nicole @nicolecozeandpt (www.instagram.com/nicolecozeandpt) or reach out via email (nicole@pelvicsanity.com).Check out our Clinical Courses, Business Resources and learn more about us at Pelvic PT Rising...Let's Continue to Rise!

Did you know that nearly twenty-five percent of adolescents suffer from chronic pain, and for some, it's severe enough to impact daily life? In this episode of Pediatric Meltdown, Dr. Lia Gaggino and guest Dr. Lonnie Zeltzer talk about the complexity of chronic pain in children and adolescents—a subject often misunderstood and inadequately addressed in pediatric medicine. Through personal anecdotes and expert insights, Dr. Zeltzer shares her journey from a curiosity about adolescent medicine to specializing in pediatric chronic pain using modern pain science. This conversation not only unravels the preconceived beliefs surrounding chronic pain but also offers potential pathways and methods to manage and reframe the experience of pain in young individuals. The episode is an eye-opener for anyone seeking to understand and support children grappling with chronic pain.[00:00 - 17:02] Prevalence and Challenges of Pediatric Chronic PainChronic pain affects 15–30% of adolescents globally, with 15% experiencing severe impairment. 70% of adolescents with untreated chronic pain develop adult chronic pain. Pediatricians often lack training in modern chronic pain management concepts. Subspecialists frequently struggle to address chronic pain after ruling out organic causes. [17:02 - 27:55] Neurobiological and Psychosocial Factors Chronic pain correlates with limbic system hyperactivity and prefrontal cortex underdevelopment in adolescents. Neurodiverse individuals may experience heightened sensory sensitivity, amplifying pain perception. Hypnotherapy and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) retrain pain-related neural pathways. POTS (postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome) reflects autonomic nervous system dysregulation linked to chronic pain. [27:56 - 21:06] Gastrointestinal and Autonomic Dysregulation Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) stems from brain-gut axis dysfunction, not structural gastrointestinal issues. Autonomic dysregulation in POTS requires salt intake, hydration, and compression garments for management. Acupuncture and acupressure offer nonpharmacologic relief, particularly for needle-tolerant patients. Abdominal pain often involves muscular tension, addressed through targeted physical therapy. [21:07 - 48:48 ] Practical Clinical Interventions Brief in-office mindfulness exercises (e.g., guided breathing) provide immediate stress relief.

Contributor: Jorge Chalit-Hernandez, OMS3 Educational Pearls: Serotonin syndrome occurs most commonly due to the combination of monoamine oxidase inhibition with concomitant serotonergic medications like SSRIs Examples of unexpected monoamine oxidase inhibitors Linezolid - a last-line antibiotic reserved for patients with true anaphylaxis to penicillins and cephalosporins Methylene blue - not mentioned in the podcast due to its uncommon usage for methemoglobinemia Other medications that can interact with SSRIs to cause serotonin syndrome Dextromethorphan - primarily an anti-tussive at sigma opioid receptors that also has serotonin reuptake inhibition Clinical presentation of serotonin syndrome Altered mental status Autonomic dysregulation leading to hypertension (most common), hypotension, and tachycardia Hyperthermia Neuromuscular hyperactivity - tremors, myoclonus, and hyperreflexia Hunter Criteria (high sensitivity and specificity for serotonin syndrome): Spontaneous clonus Inducible clonus + agitation or diaphoresis Ocular clonus + agitation or diaphoresis Tremor + hyperreflexia Hypertonia, temperature > 38º C, and ocular or inducible clonus Management of serotonin syndrome Primarily supportive - benzodiazepines can help treat hypertension, agitation, and hyperthermia. Patients often require repeated and higher dosing of benzodiazepines Avoid antipyretics to treat hyperthermia since the elevated temperature is due to sustained muscle contraction and not central temperature dysregulation In refractory patients, cyproheptadine (a 5HT2 antagonist) may be used as a second-line treatment Patients with temperatures > 41.1º C or 106º F require medically induced paralysis and intubation to control their temperature References Boyer EW, Shannon M.

What if you could become your own best doctor? Discover groundbreaking insights from Dr. Christine Schaffner, a leader in holistic health who transformed her career from conventional medicine to naturopathic healing. In this captivating episode, Dr. Schaffner shares her profound journey and highlights the often-overlooked oral systemic connection, emphasizing the importance of dental histories in understanding the root causes of diseases. Together, we explore how the body's autonomic nervous system and fascia play crucial roles in self-regulation and healing.We dive into the fascinating world of neurotherapy, focusing on the impact of scar tissue and segmental patterns on systemic health. Dr. Schaffner unravels the concept of "islands of turbulence," where scars create disruptions that affect the autonomic nervous system and fascia. Learn how targeted injections rejuvenate cellular communication and release trauma, offering patients rapid relief in a manner akin to "acupuncture on steroids." We also delve into the mysterious interstitium and its role in fluid movement, shedding light on how neurotherapy can revitalize this newly discovered organ.The conversation takes an intriguing turn as we examine the energetic aspects of health, particularly the potential toxicity of root canals and the power of energy-based modalities like light and sound therapies.Dr. Schaffner explains how maintaining high energy levels is vital for overcoming chronic illness, drawing inspiration from Dr. Tennant's "Healing is Voltage." As we conclude, we reflect on the transformative potential of sound and light therapies and the importance of collaboration in holistic healthcare.

Catch Headache Video Here : Have you ever experienced a headache that's far more intense than usual and localized to one side of your face, accompanied by perhaps some tearing or nasal congestion? These could be signs of Trigeminal Autonomic Cephalgia (TAC), a condition that's significantly more debilitating than your typical headache. Distinguishing between these and more common types of headaches is not just about managing pain but understanding a possibly serious underlying condition. Understanding trigeminal autonomic cephalalgias (TACs) begins with recognizing their unique and debilitating symptoms. As an experienced chiropractor for headaches, Dr. Brian McKay of Core Health in Darien offers cutting-edge therapy to eliminate TAC's. TAC's often present with unilateral pain that can be excruciatingly severe. This pain is frequently accompanied by autonomic symptoms such as eye watering, nasal congestion, or eyelid drooping, primarily affecting one side of your face. Dr. Brian McKay and his team specialize in non-medication headache relief techniques, which can be particularly beneficial if you're dealing with the intense pain of TACs.This podcast welcomes your feedback here are several ways to reach out to me. If you have a topic you would like to hear about send me a message. I appreciate your listening.

Autonomic dysreflexia is listed in JRCALC as a condition with specific prehospital treatments, meaning it is something that emergency clinicians and ambulance crews need to be aware of. This month we take a look at what is happening with this unposed sympathetic activity, how spinal injury patients develop autonomic dysreflexia and what we can do to lower bloodpressure.

Autonomic dysfunction and tachycardia are strongly linked to poor outcomes in septic shock, contributing to high mortality rates. In the upcoming podcast, we explore whether β-blockade with landiolol for up to 14 days can reduce organ failure, as measured by the Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) score, in critically ill patients with tachycardia and septic shock who have been on high-dose norepinephrine for over 24 hours. Dr. Tony Whitehouse, interviewed by two NEXT representatives, discusses the key findings of the STRESS-L Randomized Clinical Trial.

In this episode, Efstratios Koutroumpakis discusses a critical study on autonomic dysfunction among adult survivors of childhood cancer, highlighting its prevalence and functional significance compared to community controls. The research underscores the complex etiologies of autonomic dysfunction linked to cancer treatments and stresses the importance of early detection and standardized testing to improve cardiovascular health and quality of life in this growing survivor population.

In this podcast episode recorded in Mumbai during a tour of biohacking events, the speakers delve into the concept of biohacking and its implications for modern life. They explore how modern conveniences, while seemingly making life easier, have contributed to declining health due to a lack of physical activity and poor dietary choices. They emphasize the need for individuals to take control of their biology through education, accountability, and leveraging technology for health monitoring and optimization. The discussion touches on various aspects of biohacking, including optimizing the environment for better health outcomes, such as purifying indoor air, filtering water, and minimizing exposure to artificial light and electromagnetic fields. The speakers stress the importance of prioritizing mental health alongside physical health, advocating for practices like discipline, mindfulness, and focusing on long-term well-being over short-term gratification. Key Takeaways: Biohacking involves actively hacking one's biology to optimize health outcomes in the modern world. Modern lifestyles characterized by sedentary behavior, poor dietary choices, and environmental toxins contribute to declining health. Education, accountability, and leveraging technology for health monitoring are crucial for making informed decisions about lifestyle choices.           Optimizing the environment, including purifying indoor air, filtering water, and minimizing exposure to artificial light, is essential for better health outcomes.          Prioritizing mental health alongside physical health through practices like discipline, mindfulness, and long-term focus is crucial for overall well-being.          NAD Regen by BioStack Labs offers a cost-effective supplement solution for improving NAD levels, endorsed by Tony Robbins and Ben Greenfield.         Visual Chemistry Skin provides skincare free from harmful chemicals, promoting skin rejuvenation with plant stem cells and antioxidants.          Prioritizing self-care and efficient time management are essential for incorporating health practices into daily routines for long-term wellness. ---- Purchase Kris's new Legacy Fat Loss trainer: https://www.krisgethinlegacy.com/ Save on all BiOptimizers products by using code KRIS10 at checkout https://bioptimizers.com/ To apply to train with Kris online 1-on-1 email info@krisgethin.com ---- Follow me on Instagram and feel free to DM about 1-1 online training @krisgethin For my preferred Biohacking and anti-aging supplements, go to https://bit.ly/kgbiostacklabs

Dr Thomas Chelimsky, Professor of Neurology and Director of VCU's autonomic laboratory, is a specialist in autonomic dysfunction and a vocal advocate for considering the mind and body as one cohesive system.  He, along with his team at the VCU clinic, take a unique brain-body approach to treating Long Covid patients, with success.In this week's episode he discusses the autonomic issues faced by Long Covid patients including migraine, which he believes is prevalent in c. 50% of patients, and POTS which he discusses ‘almost never shows up alone', linking  it with the migraine, fibromyalgia and IBS (irritable bowel syndrome).  He explains the roles of the periaqueductal gray region of the brain and the vagus nerve, alongside the implications of trauma (both physical and mental) on the autonomic system, and the role that it plays in Long Covid. Living with Long Covid?

As host Sarah Lorenzini insightfully explains, “think of autonomic dysreflexia symptoms as the body's way of telling you something is wrong.” Autonomic dysreflexia is a medical emergency that occurs in patients with a spinal cord injury, but it can be hard to recognize because of the body's confusing responses to stimulation. That's why it's crucial for nurses to understand this syndrome and prevent patients from developing any life-threatening complications.In this episode, host Sarah Lorenzini gives listeners an inside look at a case of autonomic dysreflexia in a quadriplegic patient. She breaks down the patient's symptoms, medical history and presentation, then shares what helped her recognize the signs of autonomic dysreflexia. As she dives into the pathophysiology of autonomic dysreflexia, you'll gain a better understanding of this syndrome, including how to manage the symptoms and treat patients.At first perplexed by this case, it was Sarah's knowledge and critical thinking that led her to suspect autonomic dysreflexia. Tune in now and take notes so you can diagnose autonomic dysreflexia and deliver timely intervention the next time you encounter it!Topics discussed in this episode:The patient's symptoms and initial assessmentIdentifying the problem and starting treatmentUnderstanding autonomic dysreflexiaCauses and management of autonomic dysreflexiaMentioned in this episode:AND If you are planning to sit for your CCRN and would like to take the Critical Care Academy CCRN prep course you can visit https://www.ccrnacademy.com and use coupon code RAPID10 to get 10% off the cost of the course!Rapid Response and Rescue Intro CourseCONNECT

Polyvagal theory (PVT) isn't validated by neuroscientists but we can definitely learn from the theory itself. According to the theory, three organizational principles can be distinguished:Explanatory diagram:Hierarchy: The autonomic nervous system reacts in three reaction patterns, which are activated in a specific order.Neuroception: In contrast to perception, it is here a cognition without awareness, triggered by a stimulus such as danger.[14][19]Co-regulation: The need to feel safe enough to allow oneself to be in relationships, which is difficult for traumatized people.[20RESOURCE: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polyvagal_theoryhttps://www.justinlmft.com/post/dorsal-vagal-shutdownhttps://ct.counseling.org/2016/06/polyvagal-theory-practice/GET THE OCCASIONAL PERSONAL EMAIL FROM ME: www.makeyourdamnbedpodcast.comTUNE IN ON INSTAGRAM FOR COOL CONTENT: www.instagram.com/mydbpodcastOR BE A REAL GEM + TUNE IN ON PATREON: www.patreon.com/MYDBpodcastOR WATCH ON YOUTUBE: www.youtube.com/juliemerica The opinions expressed by Julie Merica and Make Your Damn Bed Podcast are intended for entertainment purposes only.

Today we're going to talk about an overlooked cause of coronary artery calcification: lactic acidosis. Lactic acidosis occurs as a byproduct of glucose metabolism. Both lactic acidosis and lactate in the blood are associated with various health issues, including: • Heart attacks • Thrombosis • Panic attacks • Autonomic nervous system dysfunction • Bipolar disorder • Schizophrenia • Sepsis • Arrhythmia problems • Liver disease • Diabetes • Cancer • Restless leg syndrome Calcification in the arteries is not just caused by old age, consuming too much calcium, or even a vitamin K2 deficiency. It turns out that one cause of vascular calcification is hypoxia in the arteries. Hypoxia is a lack of oxygen, and this lack of oxygen in the arteries can be caused by lactic acidosis. The top causes of lactic acidosis: • A high-carb diet • An overactive sympathetic dominance situation (chronic stress) • Metformin • Warfarin • Statins • Alcohol • Overtraining The top symptoms of lactic acidosis are breathing problems and restlessness, especially in the leg muscles. How to get rid of lactic acidosis: 1. Get on the keto diet 2. Reduce your stress 3. Consume natural vitamin B1 (thiamine) DATA: https://assets.cureus.com/uploads/cas... https://www.ahajournals.org/doi/10.11... https://www.hormonesmatter.com/covid-... https://www.liebertpub.com/doi/10.108..

Surprise updates your belief systems. 03:20 Complete freedom from stress is death. Stress is part of what makes us alive. There is a systemic beneficial response. 03:40 Thermal contrast is used to measure physiologic responses to stress. Adapting to this kind of stress is a measure of your resilience. 04:40 It is your beliefs about stress being harmful that cause harm to your health. 05:00 Our ancestors lived in discomfort and sought comfort. We should be seeking discomfort. Intentional discomfort with recovery makes us more resilient. 07:10 Water cold as 60 degrees will help your metabolism. Psychological resilience begins at water about 39 degrees. 09:50 HRV improves with cold exposure. Your heart rate should expand or contract to adjust to the demands of your body. HRV is a physiologic measure of your psychological resilience. It makes your heart more resilient. 11:30 Ice cold water exposure activates thermogenesis, the autonomic nervous system, and production of neurotransmitters and hormones that your body needs when your fight/flight system is on high alert. 13:10 When you come out of the ice water, you feel like superman. 14:30 Autonomic conflict theory: You will gasp. Gasp reflex activates fight/flight, increases your heart rate. If you cannot calm your breath, you may hyperventilate. A countervailing reflex is the dive reflex where you automatically shut down your breath and metabolism goes into conservation mode. It conserves oxygen and builds up carbon dioxide and slows your metabolism. 61:10 Your heart rate goes up In an ice water bath, and your liver releases glycogen into your bloodstream to fuel your muscles. 16:30 Tipton's hypothesis is that if you are subject to both the gasp and the dive at the same time, it will create an autonomic conflict that may cause your heart to skip a beat. It is potentially an issue with people with arrythmia. However, there are no documented cases of heart arrythmia and cold emersion causing issues. 17:25 Contraindications of cold exposure: drowning, hyperventilation, and breath hold. Hyperventilation purges the carbon dioxide from your system and can shut down the receptors that give you the urge to breathe. 18:40 Go feet first. Bathe sober. Breathe continuously. 20:25 Primary Raynaud is a complex extreme over reaction to cold. It is partly physiological and part psychological. In general, cold induces vasal restriction. To protect your core, your body changes the circulation of your blood, shutting off circulation to your fingers, toes, and limbs. It reduces heat extraction.  Secondary Raynaud is a vascular disorder caused by some other disease. 22:10 Anxiety makes a Raynaud response worse, which makes the anxiety worse. 22:25 Exposure therapy has been a successful method for overcoming primary Raynaud. 28:40 You can micro dose cold exposure. The first 15 seconds bring on an autonomic response, fight/flight. Consistency is important. 32:14 Tom brought down his PSA to 0.8 with keto and more consistent ice baths. 32:40 Testosterone goes up when a cold bath is done before exercise. Do not ice bath for recovery if you are trying to build muscle mass. 36:00 Precool (cold exposure) before exercise for peak muscle power, endurance. Precooling protects mitochondria. Testosterone response goes way up. 36:55 Cold stimulation in women raises saliva testosterone. Testosterone is the dominant sex hormone in women, but not to the same levels as men. Testosterone is important for women at all ages. Menopausal women who experience a testosterone deficiency have no FDA approved treatments. 42:40 Brown fat is an essential organ. 30% of babies' weight is brown fat. 43:40 Without regular cold exposure, you will lose all your brown fat. By age 40, 95% of Americans have 0 detectable brown fat. 43:55 Metabolic disorders are associated with a lack of brown fat. It is a secretory organ. It makes hormones. It makes more thyroid stimulating hormone than any other thing in your body.  Thyroid and brown fat work together. If your brown fat has dissipated, there is nothing to modulate thyroid activity.  Hyper or hypothyroidism is common in people with no brown fat. 44:40 Cold exposure is a potential remedy for thyroid disorder that does not require a lifetime of RX meds. 45:00 Beiging white fat, recruits more brown fat into your body. Brown fat produces neuroprotective hormones for your brain, thyroid stimulating hormone, and it will modulate your metabolism to bring it back to order. 46:55 Everyone's body is evolutionarily designed to expect cold exposure, exercise, and certain nutrition. 48:25 People who live in thermal neutral environments generally have a higher rate of adiposity. 49:00 Cold exposure burns fat and calories when you are in it, but your body compensates for the caloric deficit after.  50:10 Cold exposure remodels your fat. It changes visceral fat into subcutaneous fat. Subcutaneous fat can be benign. Visceral fat (pot belly fat) can kill you. 50:40 Electrical impedance meter is not calibrated for brown fat. Don't worry about absolute numbers. 54:40 Eleven minutes a week is enough time to keep brown fat working. 59:44 Ice bath can provide the emotional arousal needed to consolidate short-term memory into vivid long-term memory. 01:00:40 Shivering can be for thermogenesis, and it can be for nervous system release. Your nervous system can release trauma via trembling. PTSD is unresolved stress. Trauma is when stress has no release or resolution. 01:06:55When buying an ice bath: What is its temperature? Is it grounded? The tub must be electrically connected to the earth. What kind of water treatment does it have? Ozone is the most powerful water disinfectant for cold water. 01:10:40 Tom adds Epsom salt, potassium sulfate, zinc sulfate, and he does not shower after. Magnesium is stored in your bones, not your blood. Keep chloride out of your ice bath.
