Podcasts about Circadian rhythm

More than just a game—Knicks overcoming odds in game 4 comeback is a parable of resilience; A one and done lifetime cholesterol fix via gene modification; Will cataract surgery interfere with benefits of light exposure? Do amounts of vitamin A in various supplements taken together court the risk of toxicity? Smartphones and social media create real harm for adolescents; Experts determine the exact right amount of sleep down to the minute—but is it overreach? 

Dr. Max Gulhane (MD) is a practising family medicine physician and health-optimising physician with a passion for root-cause analysis of human chronic disease and longevity. We discuss the full solar spectrum and how ultraviolet, visible, blue, red and near-infrared light each affect human physiology, including the POMC pathway, nitric oxide and blood pressure, and the evidence on sunlight, skin cancer and the vitamin D paradox. We discuss how artificial light at night suppresses melatonin and disrupts the circadian control of DNA repair, cardiovascular health, and metabolism. For those interested in light and circadian health, Dr. Gulhane offers a grounded, mechanism-focused framework for aligning daily light exposure with human biology.Full Show Notes here.

Welcome to Hacking Your ADHD. I'm your host, William Curb, and I have ADHD. On this podcast, I dig into the tools, tactics, and best practices to help you work with your ADHD brain. Today, I'm joined by Skye Waterson for our Research Recap series. In this series, we take a look at a single research paper and dive into what the paper says, how it was conducted, and try to find any practical takeaways. In this episode, we're going to be discussing a paper called "ADHD as a Circadian Rhythm Disorder: Evidence and Implications for Chronotherapy." Now, this is a perspective paper looking at the available research on circadian rhythm dysfunction in ADHD and what works for correcting some of that dysfunction. So as we get into it, I think a great place for us to start is to talk about what a perspective paper is, because it's a little different than what we usually take on.

Circadian rhythm—our endogenous biological clock—has synchronized life with Earth's rotation for billions of years, from bacteria to humans. How does this specifically affect humans?

Dr. Fuhrman explains the healing power of time-restricted eating, meal timing, and how proper digestion supports long-term recovery. #FastingBenefits #SleepAndDiet #MealTiming

Are your daily habits negatively impacting your hormones and your overall health? And when it comes to hormones, are you focusing on only your sex hormones? It turns out other hormones are running the show! This episode breaks down common hormone dealbreakers and practical steps you can take to avoid them and reclaim your health.On this episode of Salad with a Side of Fries, host Jenn Trepeck is joined by Robin Nielsen, board-certified integrative nutritionist and founder of Natural Hormone Solution, to unpack the hidden hormone dealbreakers quietly sabotaging your health. From the real role of cortisol rhythm to the truth about cholesterol and sex hormones, xenoestrogens in your face cream, and why your to-do list is wrecking your endocrine system, this conversation is a masterclass in natural hormone balance for women at every stage of life.What You Will Learn in This Episode:✅ Why cortisol and insulin are your two most important hormones and how their dysregulation drives symptoms that are often misread as perimenopause or aging.✅ How environmental xenoestrogens found in face creams, shampoos, and household cleaners silently disrupt your estrogen balance and what to do about it.✅ The critical connection between eating for hormone balance, meal timing, and why skipping breakfast and over-exercising are two of the most damaging habits for women's hormonal health.✅ How cholesterol actually serves as the building block for all your steroid hormones, and why lowering it too aggressively may be making your symptoms worse.The Salad With a Side of Fries podcast, hosted by Jenn Trepeck, explores real-life wellness and weight-loss topics, debunking myths, misinformation, and flawed science surrounding nutrition and the food industry.

Meredith Oke is the host of the Quantum Biology Collective podcast and non-profit founder, Meredith has been down the sleep rabbit hole for years, learning what works, what doesn't and how to raise a family that sleeps.   SHOWNOTES:

Are you trading your long-term brain health for late-night screen time? Dr. Paul Chung, physician and researcher at Northwestern University, joins host Deborah Westphal to reveal why sleep is far more than rest - and why ignoring it could cost you decades of cognitive health.Dr. Chung is an Assistant Professor at Northwestern University, a pulmonary and sleep medicine physician, and a 2023 Toffler Scholar. His research sits at the intersection of sleep, circadian biology, and Alzheimer's disease - with a special focus on adults with Down syndrome as a model for understanding cognitive decline.What You'll Learn in This EpisodeWhy sleep is an active process of repair - not passive rest - and how it regulates your heart, brain, immune system, and metabolismWhat sleep apnea actually is (beyond snoring) and why it causes a body-wide stress response every single nightWhy sleep apnea remains dramatically underdiagnosed - even 60 years after being formally defined - and what patients say when asked why they skip sleep studiesThe shocking truth: a third of adults and children still aren't getting enough sleep, and the number is even worse for teenagersHow disrupted circadian rhythms are linked to the buildup of amyloid beta - the protein central to Alzheimer's diseaseWhy individuals with Down syndrome are an invaluable research population for understanding Alzheimer's progression in the broader populationWhat "slow wave activity" in sleep EEG data reveals about cognitive declineThe science of chronotherapy - why when you take a medication or vaccine may be just as important as what you takeNight owls vs. early birds: the genetic reality behind your body clock, and why society quietly punishes night owlsThe future of personalized sleep medicine - beyond CPAPKey TakeawaySleep is the third pillar of health alongside diet and exercise - yet it's the one most people sacrifice firstAbout Dr. Paul ChungDr. Paul Chung is a physician and Assistant Professor at Northwestern University's Feinberg School of Medicine, specializing in pulmonary and sleep medicine. He is a 2023 Toffler Scholar whose research focuses on sleep EEG microstructure, actigraphy, and circadian rhythms as they relate to cognitive vulnerability and Alzheimer's disease - with a particular emphasis on adults with Down syndrome.Research inquiries: paul.chung@northwestern.edu (For clinical appointments, contact Northwestern Medicine directly.)Resources MentionedKaren Toffler Charitable Trust - Funding innovative, early-stage health research: tofflertrust.orgNIH INCLUDE Project - Initiative to increase Down syndrome research funding: www.nih.govAlzheimer's Biomarkers Consortium for Down Syndrome (ABC-DS) - Large collaborative cohort studyNorthwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine - Sleep Medicine ProgramIf this conversation opened your eyes to the power of sleep science, please subscribe, leave a review, and share it with someone who keeps saying they'll "sleep when they're dead."

Show Notes HOST Melody Hartzler | | Book Appointment AROUND THE TABLE Cori Durall | Book Appointment In Today's Episode In this episode of Table Talk, Melody sits down with Dr. Cori Durall, a pharmacist and functional medicine practitioner, to discuss her journey from conventional pharmacy to root-cause healing. Dr. Cori shares how her personal health struggles, professional burnout, and experience with post-viral recovery led her to embrace functional medicine and advocate for taking ownership of your health through foundational lifestyle changes. Key Take Aways Functional medicine focuses on identifying and addressing the root causes of symptoms rather than masking them with medications. Chronic stress can significantly impact hormones, nutrient status, adrenal health, and overall recovery. Foundational health habits—sleep, movement, nutrition, sunlight, and stress management—are often the most powerful tools for healing. Post-viral syndromes, including long COVID, can uncover deeper issues like inflammation and gut dysfunction. Taking responsibility for your health empowers long-term wellness and reduces dependence on reactive healthcare solutions. Topics Discussed 00:00 – Welcome to Table Talk Introduction to Pharm to Table's mission and today's guest, Dr. Cori Durall. 00:32 – Meet Dr. Cori Durall Cori shares her background as a pharmacist in Salina, Kansas, and her experience in community pharmacy. 02:13 – Discovering Functional Medicine How compounding pharmacy and hormone health sparked her interest in integrative care. 05:29 – Why Women's Hormone Health Matters The often-overlooked symptoms of perimenopause and menopause. 07:24 – Realizing the Limits of Conventional Pharmacy Why filling prescriptions no longer felt like true healing work. 09:57 – Cori's Personal Health Journey Begins Experiencing unexplained neurological symptoms, fatigue, and frustration with “normal” labs. 12:00 – Healing Through Lifestyle Changes How sleep, nutrition, movement, and gut health became key to recovery. 14:00 – Nutrient Deficiencies and Supplement Support Vitamin D, magnesium, adaptogens, and rebuilding foundational health. 16:00 – Stress, Burnout, and Choosing Health First Why stepping down from leadership was essential for healing. 19:42 – Long COVID and Post-Viral Recovery Navigating lingering symptoms and discovering deeper root causes. 24:32 – The Role of Circadian Rhythm and Recovery Why sleep timing and nervous system regulation matter. 29:23 – Taking Responsibility for Your Health Dr. Cori's encouragement to prioritize lifestyle foundations. 30:10 – Tools for Taking Back Your Power How health tracking and functional testing can guide healing. 32:00 – Foundations of Wellness Program Resources available through Pharm to Table for getting started.

Registered dietitian nutritionist Leyla Muedin discusses the growing interest in biological age versus chronological age and explains that biological aging is modifiable through consistent lifestyle choices. She outlines common measurement tools and biomarkers, including epigenetic clocks (DNA methylation), telomere length, VO2 max, inflammatory markers, grip strength, and muscle mass, noting that genetics account for only about 25–40% of biological aging variation. Key interventions include regular aerobic and resistance exercise, protein-adequate nutrition to preserve muscle and prevent sarcopenia (with whey protein and leucine-rich foods noted), improved sleep, stress management, reducing processed foods and visceral fat, and lowering chronic inflammation (CRP, IL-6). She also reviews hormetic stressors such as sauna use and mentions red/near-infrared light and sun exposure without sunglasses. Leyla shares client examples showing biological age can worsen or improve, and encourages repeat testing after lifestyle changes.

Dr. Corey Schuler, PhD(c), FNP, DC, CNS, and director of medical affairs at Allergy Research Group, details his paper “Energy Allocation Resilience and Endocrine Integration” in the International Journal of Molecular Sciences. He introduces the Energy Allocation System (EAS), which emphasizes how the body allocates energy—not just produces it—and links many symptoms to impaired bioenergetics and resilience. They discuss mitochondria as energy generators and cellular signaling hubs, the integrated stress response and endocrine coordination (HPA axis, thyroid, gonads), and mitohormesis/eustress (exercise, fasting, heat/cold, circadian “zeitgebers”). Schuler explains nuanced testing for fatigue (diurnal cortisol, CGM patterns, thyroid markers including T3/reverse T3) and a case of a perimenopausal woman where oral contraceptives and cortisol dysregulation affected glucose patterns. They cover mitochondrial support (removing obstacles like pollutants/antibiotics, triglycerides, carnitine, dietary fats, micronutrients) and pacing/sequencing lifestyle interventions.

Did you know your skin has its own internal clock — and that ignoring it could be accelerating aging? In this episode of the Science of Skin podcast, board-certified dermatologist Dr. Patti Farris sits down with renowned cosmetic dermatologist and Harvard graduate Dr. Ava Shamban — founder of AvaMD Dermatology and the skincare line Althea — to break down the fascinating science of circadian rhythms and skin health. They cover: What circadian rhythms actually are and why every skin cell has its own biological clock How clock genes control 50% of your genome — and drive collagen production, DNA repair, and barrier function Why screen time, blue light, and night-shift schedules are silently destroying your skin The emerging field of chrono cosmetics — syncing your skincare routine to your skin's natural 24-hour cycle Dr. Ava's science-backed skincare line Althea and its groundbreaking day/night formulations Her new multimodal at-home device featuring LED therapy, radio frequency, and microcurrent — pending FDA clearance Whether you're a skincare enthusiast or a medical professional, this episode will completely change how you think about anti-aging, skin longevity, and your nighttime skincare routine.

You already know sleep matters. What you don't know is why you keep waking up at 2 AM, why your tracker is probably lying to you, and why the rules you've been following may not be meant for you. Dr. Michael Breus is one of the world's leading sleep doctors - not just a sleep expert, but a clinical psychologist who actually treats patients and pressure-tests every theory in real life. The difference matters. The rule saying you need a pitch-black, 65-degree room with no TV and no partner? He sleeps with two French bulldogs and a big screen on. His point isn't that sleep hygiene doesn't matter. It's that it has to work for your actual life. One thing that might reshape how you think about your body: every human on earth wakes up between 1 and 3 AM. It's biology. Your core body temperature drops to prevent hypothermia, and your body briefly surfaces. Most people roll over and go back to sleep. If you don't, the fix isn't pills - it's understanding what's happening and using tools like 4-7-8 breathing to lower your heart rate below 60 and let sleep return naturally. Your chronotype - lion, bear, wolf, or dolphin - is genetic. It shifts across your lifetime. Forcing a wolf to be a lion doesn't make them a better performer; it makes them worse.

Sarah hosts Nikko Kennedy on the Evolving Wellness podcast to discuss motherhood, preconception, and sleep, emphasizing how optimizing light and darkness can support polyphasic sleep and help mothers function despite frequent night wakings. Nikko argues modern expectations of consolidated 8-hour sleep and nighttime screen use worsen fatigue, while extended time in dim darkness (often 10–14 hours postpartum) can improve resilience, weight loss, and overall endocrine and metabolic health. They connect sleep to anemia, noting over 90% of new red blood cells come from recycled iron, with inflammation-regulated hepcidin limiting iron use regardless of supplementation; they highlight the roles of mitochondria, liver, spleen, and bone marrow and the need for nighttime darkness. They also touch on community/social cues, dad's health and placental outcomes, pregnancy blood volume expansion, and mixed experiences with desiccated organ supplements.— Connect with Nikko:https://substack.com/@nikkokennedy?r=5eztl9&utm_campaign=profile&utm_medium=profile-pagehttps://www.instagram.com/brighterdays.darkernights/ YOUR COMPLETE SUMMER SUN GUIDE - Free Webinar: https://www.sarahkleinerwellness.com/webinar-your-summer-sun-guide or Scan the QR code at 01:58 _________Sponsored By:→ VivaRays | This episode is sponsored by VivaRays - VivaRays Blue - code YOGI https://vivarays.com/→ Troscriptions | For an exclusive offer, go to https://www.troscriptions.com/SARAHK for 10% off your first non subscription order. _________Timestamp:00:00 Coming Up00:29 Podcast Intro 03:27 Meet Nikko Kennedy06:04 Why Nikko Helps Moms13:52 Polyphasic Sleep Basics16:26 Postpartum Rest Strategy17:54 Sleep Is Social Screens22:22 Handling Pushback Privilege24:17 Jealousy Online25:44 Iron Recycling Basics28:06 Darkness Heals Mitochondria29:03 Enforced Darkness Protocols31:18 Sunlight for Postpartum Recovery35:17 Light and Breastfeeding Gains36:06 Motherhood Moment Break37:34 Practice Based Research39:31 Dad Health and Placenta41:22 Blood Volume Expansion42:23 Boring Basics Protocol42:47 Organ Supplements Debate——— This video is not medical advice & as a supporter to you and your health journey - I encourage you to monitor your labs and work with a professional!________________________________________Get all my free guides and product recommendations to get started on your journey!https://www.sarahkleinerwellness.com/all-free-resourcesCheck out all my courses to understand how to improve your mitochondrial health & experience long lasting health!

Dr. Jacob Teitelbaum, an Integrative Medicine physician, researcher, and best-selling author specializing in chronic fatigue syndrome, details “adrenal fatigue,” contrasting Endocrine Society guidelines focused on overt adrenal failure with his view that the adrenals can be functionally exhausted and may be missed by standard testing and “normal ranges.” They discuss adrenal roles in stress response, blood sugar regulation, blood pressure, immunity, and symptoms suggesting low adrenal function (irritability when hungry, sugar cravings, fatigue, recurrent infections, lightheadedness/brain fog, mood shifts). Contributors include high sugar intake, chronic stress, dehydration, and salt restriction, with modern media fear/divisiveness cited as a major stressor; hypothalamic dysfunction and circadian rhythm disruption may cause “tired but wired” insomnia. They cover options such as licorice (not DGL), dietary and lifestyle changes, Adrenaplex, adaptogens (ashwagandha standards, HRG80 red ginseng study), phosphatidylserine for high nighttime cortisol, cautious low-dose hydrocortisone thresholds, and DHEA/pregnenolone considerations, plus resources at endfatigue.com.

Kim Rogers spent over 20 years in Western medicine running 25 healthcare colleges, teaching as a professor, authoring medical materials, and earning two healthcare degrees, all while battling chronic illness herself. In 2019, her health declined severely, leading her and her husband to sell everything and move to their property to build a log home and focus on healing. After exploring natural approaches, including mushrooms, Kim discovered parasite cleansing in 2021. Within days, she saw major results, and after sharing her experience online, her story quickly went viral. Motivated to help others, Kim co-founded RogersHood in 2021, creating ParaFy cleanse kits focused on supporting the body's detox process. Since then, she has built a community of over a million followers and a growing company with 30+ employees and a self-built 10,000 sq ft manufacturing facility. Through her journey, she also uncovered mold toxicity and chronic Lyme as root contributors to her illness, reinforcing her mission to help others explore deeper causes of their health challenges.   SHOWNOTES:

 In this powerful episode, Dr. Vaughn Lawrence shares about Biblical, holistic health and how sunlight, energy, and coffee impact your body and spirit.Sunlight & Biblical Health:

What if the reason you're not getting anything done has nothing to do with laziness, lack of discipline, or poor time management? Brain fog is a biological response to overwhelm, and once you understand what is driving it, clearing it becomes a matter of strategy rather than willpower.On Salad with a Side of Fries, host Jenn Trepeck delivers one of her most personal and practical episodes yet, tracing her own experience of brain fog through months of compounding stress and sharing every tool that helped her climb back out. From targeted nutritional supplements like magnesium, ashwagandha, and activated B vitamins, to the biochemical power of novelty, strength training, and social connection, Jenn lays out a morning, midday, and evening framework built around activation, adaptation, and restoration. This is not a surface-level conversation about productivity hacks. This is the science of resilience building applied to real life, with real results.What You Will Learn in This Episode:✅ Why brain fog is not a discipline problem but a biological response to layered overwhelm, and how the gut-brain connection, postbiotics, and targeted antioxidants work together beneath the surface to restore cognitive function and get your brain fully back online.✅ How movement goes far beyond the gym: why changing your walk route, adding intervals, doing squats before a meeting, and keeping light weights nearby are all proven strategies for increasing blood flow and boosting brain energy throughout the day.✅ Why novelty is one of the most powerful and underused tools for mental clarity, and how activities that demand your full attention, from learning a new language to trying a completely unfamiliar experience, actively protect against cognitive decline and sharpen neural connections.✅ How the foods you eat and the ones you avoid directly shape your brain health, why dark leafy greens, blueberries, and beans support memory and slow cognitive decline, and why ultra-processed foods are directly linked to dementia, diabetes, and cardiovascular disease.The Salad With a Side of Fries podcast, hosted by Jenn Trepeck, explores real-life wellness and weight-loss topics, debunking myths, misinformation, and flawed science surrounding nutrition and the food industry. Let's dive into wellness and weight loss for real life, including drinking, eating out, and skipping the grocery store.TIMESTAMPS:00:00 Clearing brain fog and restoring mental clarity for real life03:07 Recognizing brain fog through observable behaviors: procrastination, lost productivity, inability to focus, and decision fatigue06:07 The three layers of overwhelm fueling mental fatigue: to-do list stress, emotional trauma, and relentless input overload12:09 The wired-but-tired cycle explained: how burnout, late nights, and disrupted sleep quietly destroy focus and brain energy17:51 Shifting from stimulants to solutions: building daily, calm energy with adaptogens, magnesium, and B vitamins for lasting resilience22:15 Morning activation framework: movement, probiotics, vitamin D3, protein-forward meals, and creatine to power up brain energy25:53 Midday adaptation strategies: breaks, deep breathing, single-tasking, and releasing pressure to force productivity31:19 Evening restoration: how CBD gummies, magnesium, and adaptogenic herbs quiet the mind and support deep restorative sleep34:27 Power up your walk and why strength training and resistance work are non-negotiable for brain health, long-term cognitive function, and longevity37:00 Novelty and new experiences spark brain energy and guard against cognitive decline41:10 Brain-supporting foods explained: dark leafy greens, blueberries, beans, and folate-rich choices that slow cognitive decline44:34 Supplement timing strategy: B complex and adaptogenic herbs in the morning and midday, magnesium and ashwagandha at night45:42 The gut-brain connection: how probiotics, postbiotics, fiber, and antioxidants work together to restore cognitive functionKEY TAKEAWAYS:

Functional Diagnostic Nutrition: Using Saliva Testing, Food Sensitivity Labs, and Lifestyle to Find Root Causes: Reed Davis, Board Certified Holistic Health Practitioner (HHP) and Certified Nutritional Therapist (CNT), is founder of Functional Diagnostic Nutrition (FDN). He discusses using functional testing alongside conventional care to uncover “dysfunction” when standard labs appear normal. Davis describes assessing adrenal and metabolic stress via saliva testing for circadian cortisol patterns, cortisol-DHEA balance, sex hormones, secretory IgA, and melatonin, emphasizing clinical correlation and individualized “studies of one.” He outlines an approach targeting multiple “healing opportunities” (H-I-D-D-E-N: hormones, immune, digestion, detoxification, energy, nervous system) and applying D-R-E-S-S (diet, rest, exercise, stress reduction, supplementation) rather than relying on supplements alone. A case example links chronic hives, medication-related weight gain, and food triggers identified through additional testing, including the Mediator Release Test. The discussion also covers stress-driven gut dysbiosis, digestion decline, and EFT tapping for stress-related symptoms, and notes FDN practitioners can be found via FDNtraining.com/medicine.

If you want to do your best, you'd better get your rest.The quality of your sleep fundamentally affects the quality of your communication. Communicating well, Dr. Cheri Mah says, starts with being well-rested.“Sleep impacts nearly every aspect of how you function,” says Mah, a sleep physician, adjunct lecturer at Stanford Sleep Medicine Center, and internationally recognized expert on sleep and human performance. In her research and work, particularly with elite athletes and professional sports teams, she explores the link between getting rest and doing our best. “If you are getting quality sleep, you can think more clearly, react under pressure, make good judgment calls, have more patience, be more empathetic,” she says.In this episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart, Mah and host Matt Abrahams explore strategies for better sleep, from bedtime routines to paying off “sleep debt” to the “nappuccino” — a caffeine-fueled power nap. Whether you struggle to sleep or can nod off at any time or place, Mah's insights reveal why doing our best requires getting our rest.To listen to the extended Deep Thinks version of this episode, please visit FasterSmarter.io/premium.Episode Reference Links:Dr. Cheri MahEp.183 Rethinks: How Anxiety Can Fuel Better Communication Connect:Premium Signup >>>> Think Fast Talk Smart PremiumEmail Questions & Feedback >>> hello@fastersmarter.ioEpisode Transcripts >>> Think Fast Talk Smart WebsiteNewsletter Signup + English Language Learning >>> FasterSmarter.ioThink Fast Talk Smart >>> LinkedIn, Instagram, YouTubeMatt Abrahams >>> LinkedInChapters:(00:00) - Introduction (02:57) - Sleep & Performance (04:11) - Better Sleep Habits (06:16) - Quieting a Racing Mind (07:49) - Dr. Mah's Night Routine (09:19) - Sleep Extension (10:52) - Preparing for Big Events (11:44) - The Nappuccino (13:21) - Managing Jet Lag (15:56) - Chronotypes Explained (18:00) - Starting the Day with Sleep (19:40) - The Final Three Question (23:57) - Conclusion ********Thank you to our sponsors.  These partnerships support the ongoing production of the podcast, allowing us to bring it to you at no cost.Strawberry.me.

Are your go-to health habits suddenly working against you? If you are in your 40s or beyond and wondering why everything you used to do no longer delivers results, this episode could change everything.Jenn Trepeck, host of Salad with a Side of Fries, sits down with registered holistic nutritionist and life coach Lara Frendjian to unpack why perimenopause symptoms demand a completely new approach to mornings, menopause weight loss, and daily metabolic health. Together, they explore how slow morning routines and smarter hormone balance strategies can transform energy, mood, and weight from the inside out.What You Will Learn in This Episode:✅ Why perimenopause symptoms can appear years before cycle changes, and how declining progesterone and erratic estrogen create a body that is more vulnerable to stress, weight gain, and hormone imbalance.✅ How a slow morning routine as brief as five minutes sends powerful signals to the nervous system, supporting circadian rhythm, reducing cortisol, and setting the tone for the entire day.✅ The surprising science behind caffeine and cortisol, including why delaying your first cup of coffee by at least 90 minutes can eliminate the afternoon energy crash and reduce dependence on stimulants.✅ Why fasted workouts may be doing more harm than good during perimenopause, and what a smarter pre-workout snack strategy looks like for protecting blood sugar stability and adrenal health.The Salad With a Side of Fries podcast, hosted by Jenn Trepeck, explores real-life wellness and weight-loss topics, debunking myths, misinformation, and flawed science surrounding nutrition and the food industry.

Today we're diving into the nuanced world of circadian rhythm sleep syndromes, and how biological and environmental factors intersect in shaping our children's sleep. My guest is Alex Mortlock, a registered clinical psychologist who has been in practice since 2010, with training rooted in evidence-based approaches to mental health. Alex will help us unpack what's actually happening when a child's sleep rhythm is out of sync, and why this is so often misunderstood. We talk about practical strategies, the role of light exposure and light therapy, and how melatonin can be used thoughtfully to support regulation.  About Dr. Devon Price Alex Mortlock has been a registered clinical psychologist since 2010, trained at the University of Canterbury with a focus on evidence-based approaches to mental health assessment and treatment. His work is grounded in psychological science, with an emphasis on the interplay of emotion, cognition, and motivation. He uses evidence-based methods to help people make positive changes in their behaviour, fostering an environment of authenticity, acceptance, and understanding. Throughout his career, Alex has had the privilege of witnessing growth and transformation in people from diverse backgrounds — experiences that have reinforced his belief that, with the right support and guidance, everyone has the capacity to flourish. He lives in Christchurch, New Zealand with his wife, who is also a clinical psychologist, and their two over-analysed children. Curiosity, compassion, courage, and flexibility are the values that guide him through the professional and personal challenges that human life presents.   Things you'll learn from this episode  How circadian rhythms shape sleep patterns and why they matter for children's overall health Why conditions like delayed sleep phase, advanced sleep phase, and non-24-hour sleep disorders can disrupt typical sleep cycles How neurodivergence can influence light sensitivity and circadian regulation Why gradual light exposure, environmental adjustments, and low-dose melatonin can help realign sleep rhythms How habits like late-night screen use can interfere with healthy sleep patterns When to seek professional support and how parents can practically support their child's sleep development Resources mentioned Alex Mortlock's website Late Nights, Later Days: The Under-Recognized Impact of Delayed Sleep Phase Syndrome in ADHD (Additude Magazine) Reset Your Inner Clock: The Drug-Free Way to Your Best-Ever Sleep, Mood, and Energy by Michael Termin, PhD Prevalence of Obstructive Sleep Apnea in Joint Hypermobility Syndrome: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis (National Institute of Health) Article on Light Boxes (Yale School of Medicine) Light Therapy Visors (results page from Amazon search)   Learn more about your ad choices.

Registered dietitian nutritionist Leyla Muedin discusses how exposure to natural daylight may improve metabolic health beyond diet and exercise, highlighting a controlled crossover study of 13 adults aged 65+ with type 2 diabetes published in Cell Metabolism. Participants spent 4.5 days in living spaces lit by either natural light through large windows or artificial light, with identical meals, sleep, activity, and screen time; after a 4-week washout they switched conditions. Natural light was associated with more hours of blood glucose in the normal range, less glucose variability, higher evening melatonin, and improved fat oxidative metabolism, suggesting effects on circadian “body clocks” and coordination between central and peripheral clocks. Muedin recommends getting morning light on the face, reducing sunglasses and high SPF use, dimming lights at night, keeping consistent sleep, and spending more time outdoors; she also notes that architecture can limit sunlight exposure.

This week, Brent speaks with Dr. Helen Burgess, a leading researcher in sleep and circadian rhythms, to unpack what we actually know about how to optimize your internal clock. Drawing on decades of research, Burgess explains how circadian rhythms govern everything from sleep and hormones to body temperature, and why consistent light exposure may be the most powerful lever for improving sleep. The conversation explores the role of blue light, the growing use (and misuse) of melatonin, and why shifting your sleep schedule requires more precision than most people realize. She's a wonderful guest and a great resource. Hope you enjoy.

If you've been feeling constantly exhausted, burned out, or mentally drained, even after you've caught up on sleep…this episode is for you. Because sometimes we're tired in ways sleep alone can't fix. Today's truth-bomb: sleep and rest are not the same thing. And most chronically drained people are missing the kind of rest that would actually restore them. In today's quickie, we're breaking down the 4 types of fatigue that could be draining your energy — and why most people are trying to fix the wrong problem. This will help you identify why you're so tired all the time, and what actually works to feel better. Backed by research, fatigue is a multidimensional experience, and until you address the specific type of exhaustion you're experiencing, no amount of sleep, coffee, or productivity hacks will fix it. Tune in to hear about: The 4 main types of fatigue: physical, cognitive (mental overload), emotional, and existential Why doomscrolling, screen time, and constant stimulation are worsening your exhaustion Active vs passive mental fatigue (and why both leave you drained) How people-pleasing and unreciprocated emotional labor lead to deep exhaustion Why you need to close those “open mental tabs” with monotasking How to reduce digital overload and give your brain real rest Why monotasking and closing mental loops can instantly improve focus and energy The power of awe, purpose, and gratitude in reversing existential burnout For advertising and sponsorship inquiries, please contact Frequency Podcast Network.

Your body already makes one of the most powerful antimicrobials on Earth, and almost nobody knows about it.Hypochlorous acid lives inside your white blood cells. When you get cut, burned, or scraped, your immune system sends it to the injury site to kill bacteria, calm inflammation, and support healing. Scientists have known how to replicate it for over a century, but until recently, it couldn't stay stable long enough outside a hospital to be bottled.Justin Gardner spent 20 years launching regenerative medical products, including skin grafts and advanced wound care technologies. When he came across hypochlorous acid, he saw something different: a non-toxic antimicrobial that works fast and aligns with how the body already heals. He licensed the technology and built Active Skin Repair to bring it to consumers.In this conversation, we get into how it compares to things like colloidal silver and manuka honey, why most products labeled “hypochlorous acid” don't actually work, and how it's being used for everything from post-surgery recovery to everyday skin issues.For the next week, The Life Stylist loyal listeners can get their biggest discount, 25% off all Active Skin Repair products, when you go to https://lukestorey.com/skinrepair and use code LUKE at checkout.

Broadcast from KSQD, Santa Cruz on 4-23-2026: Dr. Dawn highlights ARPA-H-funded breakthroughs: Duke researchers created injections enabling cartilage cells to divide and remodel bone, UC Boulder developed intermittent-burst delivery of a repurposed drug that reversed rabbit arthritis in 4-8 weeks, and Columbia printed a living 3D knee using stem cells on biodegradable scaffolding. She notes the agency's budget was cut by $945 million despite requiring human trials within 18 months of funding. A cord blood study across 200 countries links phthalates—found in food packaging, vinyl flooring, shampoos, and toys—to placental disruption and premature birth. Dr. Dawn warns that removing specific chemicals just leads to untested replacements, and urges avoiding microwaving in plastic. An emailer asks about microbiome and exercise motivation. Dr. Dawn describes research showing Veillonella atypica bacteria eat lactate produced during exercise and trigger dopamine production via the vagus nerve, creating a reward loop. Bred "super-runner" mice ran three times longer than average, but antibiotics reduced their running by 21%, implicating microbiome involvement. Dr. Dawn expands on cortisol dynamics: levels should rise gradually from 3 a.m., spike threefold at waking to synchronize hormones, then decline throughout the day. Chronic stress keeps cortisol elevated, while burnout from sustained overproduction eventually exhausts the adrenals and disrupts circadian rhythm, requiring 6-12 months to restore. An emailer asks about food-based detoxification for skin and inflammation. Dr. Dawn explains that plant bioflavonoids—originally insecticides—trigger enzyme production that also breaks down synthetic pollutants, with sulfur-containing vegetables (crucifers, onions, garlic) particularly important. Colorful fruits and vegetables scavenge free radicals that damage DNA and collagen. Dr. Dawn explores red and near-infrared light therapy (600-1100nm), which boosts ATP production by energizing cytochrome c oxidase in mitochondria. The FDA approved a device for dry macular degeneration, and red light is recommended for chemotherapy-induced oral mucositis. She notes modern buildings filter these wavelengths, potentially starving us of light our bodies evolved to need. Dr. Dawn shares research on unsupervised childhood play, citing psychologist Peter Gray's finding that independent play develops internal locus of control—the belief you can influence outcomes. such as youth anxiety and depression, as children no longer learn to self-soothe through tolerating boredom.

Indoor Epidemic: Prescribing Nature, Light, Air, and Movement with Dr. John La Puma, internist, chef, and regenerative farmer. His book, "Indoor Epidemic," argues that spending about 93% of life indoors undermines health through poor light timing, air quality, limited movement, and reduced nature exposure. La Puma cites data that outdoor morning light helps set circadian rhythms, while nighttime blue light can impair sleep quality and raise cardiovascular risks, referencing a large UK Biobank study. He discusses indoor pollutants and CO2 buildup affecting inflammation and cognition, recommends strategies like getting daylight early (even just a sky view), using circadian lighting, and taking brief outdoor breaks to reduce myopia risk. He describes measurable benefits of forest bathing and gardening (including immune and mood effects), notes hospital studies linking window views to shorter stays and less pain medication, and reviews his pioneering work in culinary medicine now taught widely in medical schools, emphasizing cooking and growing food as preventive and therapeutic tools.

Are you a morning type, a night owl, or somewhere in between? And what about the people on your team? When do they feel most energized and productive? Stefan Volk, professor of management at the University of Sydney Business School, says that leaders need to pay more attention to their own and employees' circadian rhythms because they have a big impact on performance. While forcing everyone into the same schedule can lead to conflict, mistakes, and burnout, carefully planning tasks around individual energy peaks enhances collaboration not only during overlaps but also when people are apart. He offers practical advice on how to get all chronotypes working well together. Volk is author of the HBR article "Tapping into Your Team's Circadian Rhythms."

Your thyroid controls your energy, your metabolism, your testosterone, your mood, and your ability to think clearly. Most doctors are testing it wrong and treating it wrong, and this episode tells you exactly what to do instead. -Watch this episode on YouTube for the full video experience: https://www.youtube.com/@DaveAspreyBPR Host Dave Asprey sits down with McCall McPherson, a physician associate, TEDx speaker, and founder of Modern Thyroid Clinic, Modern Weight Loss, and the advocacy platform Thyroid Nation. McPherson has been honored on the 2024 and 2025 Inc. 5000 lists and named a 2025 Top 500 Inc. Female Founder. She hosts the Modern Thyroid and Wellness podcast and built her entire practice around thyroid care after being failed by conventional medicine while managing her own hypothyroidism. She treats patients nationwide via telemedicine and has become one of the most trusted voices in functional medicine thyroid care. Dave and McCall expose why standard TSH-only testing catches just 1 to 2 percent of actual thyroid variation, why the medication most doctors prescribe (Synthroid/levothyroxine) fails a massive percentage of patients, and why T3 is the active hormone that mainstream medicine has been trained to fear without good reason. They also get into how fluoride in tap water, bromine in American wheat, mold exposure, dairy, gluten, and oxalates directly suppress thyroid function and drive autoimmunity. If you want to optimize your metabolism, protect your mitochondria, support brain optimization, and stop leaving your longevity on the table, thyroid is the first domino. This is essential listening for anyone serious about biohacking, human performance, anti-aging, functional medicine, supplements, sleep optimization, and using smarter not harder strategies to take control of your biology. You'll Learn: Why testing TSH alone misses thyroid dysfunction in the vast majority of people What a full thyroid panel actually includes and the optimal ranges for T4, T3, and reverse T3 Why T4-only medications like Synthroid fail and what works better How low thyroid directly tanks testosterone and libido in both men and women The environmental triggers destroying your thyroid, including fluoride, bromine, mold, and inflammatory foods How Hashimoto's connects to broader autoimmune risk and what drives it into remission Why kids are being misdiagnosed with ADHD when the real issue is hypothyroidism The supplements and cofactors (selenium, zinc, magnesium, ashwagandha, tyrosine) that support thyroid activation How thyroid optimization connects to metabolism, dementia prevention, cardiovascular health, and economic outcomes When to use T3 only vs. a T3/T4 combination, and how to know if your dose is off Thank you to our sponsors!
