Surgery is a highly skilled and demanding field that requires the same level of precision and decision making as an elite athlete. As my guest, Dr Karan Rajan explains, just as an athlete must perform under pressure and make split-second decisions on the field, a surgeon must do the same in the operating room. Surgery requires a high level of focus and concentration, and mistakes can have serious consequences. From nutrition and sleep to exercise and decision-making, learn how to take your health to the next level.

In this informative and eye-opening podcast, I sit down with renowned endocrinologist and obesity expert, Dr. Robert Lustig, to discuss the often misunderstood topic of saturated fat. Dr. Lustig breaks down the complex concept in a "beautifully simplistic" way and explains how the scale lies when it comes to measuring our overall health. We delve into the three separate fat depots in our bodies and how they contribute differently to our health. Dr. Lustig also touches on the link between stress, cortisol, and visceral fat and how sugar plays a role in the development of a fatty liver.Dr Lustig's book:Metabolical: The truth about processed food and how it poisons people and the planet https://amzn.to/3pX7iaLSponsors:KETONE-IQ- 20% DISCOUNT - NEURO20https://hvmn.me/NeuroMOMENTOUS SUPPLEMENTS - 15% DISCOUNT - NEUROhttps://www.livemomentous.com/neuroConnect with Dr Lustig:Website https://robertlustig.comTwitter https://twitter.com/RobertLustigMDFacebook https://www.facebook.com/DrRobertLustig/YouTube @RobertLustigMD You can follow me or contact me here ---Newsletter: https://bit.ly/3ewI5P0Instagram: louisanicola_Twitter : louisanicola_YouTube: Louisa NicolaThe information provided in this show is not medical advice, nor should it be taken or applied as a replacement for medical advice.

No one wants to overeat. And certainly no one wants to overeat for years, become overweight, and end up with a high risk of diabetes or heart disease– yet two thirds of Americans do precisely that. Stephan is a neuroscientist who, in this episode, will go into the topic of obesity. Stephan provides insights into obesity that are not normally spoken about. He talks in depth about the role of genetics, the brain, and hormones such as leptin that play in the regulation of fat mass. He dives deep into the factors that affect body weight, controlling appetite and controlling food intake and provides takeaways for people wanting to take advantage of what we know about the brain's role in regulating our body weight.This episode is for anybody wanting to understand the neuroscience of obesity.

Sleep is generally divided into two phases, REM (rapid eye movement) and NREM (non-rapid eye movement). While the REM sleep phase is when your body focuses on reenergizing your mind, the NREM phase, and specifically the deep sleep stage, is when your body's physically restorative processes take place. With your brain less active, the blood supply to your muscles and tissues increases, delivering oxygen and nutrients that promote muscle repair and growth. Let's dig into some specific connections between sleep and muscle recovery.Professor Shona Halson is the Deputy Director of the SPRINT Research Centre atACU's School of Behavioural and Health Sciences. Prior to this she was the HeadRecovery Physiologist at the Australian Institute of Sport for over 15 years and hasled the Recovery team at three Olympic campaigns with the Australian OlympicCommittee. Her research focuses on sleep, recovery and fatigue and she haspublished over 160 peer-reviewed articles and multiple book chapters.

During the ageing process, physical capabilities (e.g., muscular strength) and cognitive functions (e.g., memory) gradually decrease. Regarding cognitive functions, substantial functional (e.g., compensatory brain activity) and structural changes (e.g., shrinking of the hippocampus) in the brain cause this decline.From a glance:Dementia affects approximately 47 million individuals globally with projections of 130 million by the year 2050.Late-onset Alzheimer's disease is the most common form of dementia, accounting for approximately 75% of all cases and is characterized by a progressive decline in cognitive function, memory, and cerebral volume.The pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease is poorly understood; however, aging, genetics, and an individual's diet and lifestyle over several decades appear to be key determinants.Excitingly, growing evidence points towards a relationship between cognition and measures of muscular strength and muscle mass. First part of this episode goes into the brain ageing process and the second half is about the effects of resistance training on brain function. Studies/ references mentioned:1.

Cognitive enhancing drugs are claimed to improve cognitive functions such as learning and attention. However, little is known presently about the characteristics of off-prescription cognitive enhancing drug users or their perceived everyday experience with these drugs. Modafinil has been the drugs of desire for a long time now. If you ever saw the Bradley Cooper movie called limitless, you probably wish you had access to this drug.  Laboratory studies have even shown that it may have potent antioxidative and neuroprotective effects. Modafinil is also of a high interest to the US military for enhancing alertness and reducing battle fatigue. So why isn't everybody on this drug? Well In today's podcast, I host a guest who knows more about the science of modafinil than anyone. Dr Jonathan Wisor who is a professor of cell biology at Washington state university and researchers circadian rhythms.

Current evidence indicates cold water immersion may be the most effective method of pre-cooling to improve endurance performance in hot conditions, although practicality must be considered. Ice slurry ingestion appears to be the most promising practical alternative.Dr. Craig Heller, Professor of Biology at Stanford University and world expert on the science of temperature regulation.In this episode Dr. Heller explains how heat impairs muscular and mental performance, and how to cool the brain and body to reduce inflammation and to enhance performance. Dr. Heller teaches us the best ways to Coll our body down during performance, and how to use the precise timing and location of cooling on our body to greatly enhance endurance and weight training performance. He describes how cooling technology discovered and engineered in his laboratory has led to a tripling of anaerobic performance and allowed endurance athletes to run further and faster, as well as to eliminate delayed onset muscle soreness.If you're interested in understanding the science behind cold water immersion, ice baths and how training in the cold weather than this is the episode for you.Craig's Cool Mitt - https://www.coolmitt.com/company/about-usSponsors:Eight Sleep: $150 off  - NEUROhttps://www.eightsleep.com/neuroYou can follow me or contact me here ---Newsletter: https://bit.ly/3ewI5P0Instagram: louisanicola_Twitter : louisanicola_YouTube: Louisa NicolaThe information provided in this show is not medical advice, nor should it be taken or applied as a replacement for medical advice.

Louisa Nicola is a neurophysiologist, brain coach to elite athletes, and Founder of Neuro Athletics, a full-service neuroscience diagnostic testing company.  Back in episode #436, Louisa Nicola gave us an introduction to the brain and nervous system, setting the foundation for us to understand how neuroscience can help us get more out of life. This week, Louisa is back to dive deeper into the science behind brain performance.  In this discussion, Chase and Louisa talk about the three domains of peak brain performance: nutrition, physical exercise, and neurophysiology. Louisa breaks down how to utilize nutrients, exercise, and sleep, so you can better optimize your brain health. The pair also talk about keeping the blood-brain barrier strong, the benefits of using exogenous ketones, and why you need to be more mindful of maintaining your dopamine levels.  Plus… Can our brain cells regenerate or are the connections just getting stronger? Stick around until the end to hear Louisa's shocking answer!   Follow Louisa Nicola @louisanicola_ Learn more about NeuroAthletics Follow Chase on Instagram @chase_chewning Follow him on Twitter @chasechewning   Key Highlights Sleep: “Sleep is probably the most underrated high performance tool we have,” Louisa says. If you're an athlete who doesn't get enough quality sleep, it affects almost every aspect of your performance and increases risk for injury. Louisa goes on to describe the impacts of sleep on brain health, brain disorders, and brain aging. Nutrition: “When it comes to the brain, there are certain things that the brain favors, especially as it relates to nutrition and supplementation,” Louisa says. Listen in to learn how stress, inflammation, and supplementation of key nutrients, like EPA and DHA, can play a role in longevity and cognitive performance. Plus, Louisa explains the benefits of going on a high fat diet immediately after a traumatic brain injury (TBI) or concussion). Hydration is a key indicator of brain functioning. If we are 2% dehydrated, we can have a decrease in our cognitive performance by 30%. Exercise: “You can grow the gray matter of your brain by physical activity alone,” Louisa says. She then recaps various research studies that show the relationship between exercise, particularly resistance training, and cognitive performance as well as how exercise can prevent Alzheimer's disease. Your brain loves quality time with other humans, loving relationships, social interactions, and of course, self-love.  How will you know these practices are actually improving your brain health?

The brain is a fascinating and complex organ. It's the primary control center for our whole body, and it can be affected by stress in many different ways. Stress itself is an important part of life – it helps us prepare for danger or respond to emergencies. But when we're constantly stressed out, that's when our brain starts to pay the price. This blog post will explore how stress affects your brain, both positively and negatively, so you can develop strategies to reduce your brain's vulnerability to its harmful effects.In this episode I speak with Dr Mithu Storoni, an eye surgeon & neuroscience researcher-turned writer. She is the author of "Stress Proof". This episode taught me so much about the neurobiology of stress and how to combat stress in your life. Find Mithu here:InstagramHer websiteStress Proof BookKETONE-IQ- 20% DISCOUNT - NEUROhttps://hvmn.me/NeuroYou can follow me or contact me here ---Newsletter: https://bit.ly/3ewI5P0Instagram: louisanicola_Twitter : louisanicola_YouTube: Louisa NicolaThe information provided in this show is not medical advice, nor should it be taken or applied as a replacement for medical advice.

It's well known that F1 drivers are some of the fittest athletes in the world, but how do they train and what do they eat? What I didn't know was that necks, shoulders, and an athlete's overall core is under tremendous strain through every turn on every lap for the entire 90 minutes of a race. Drivers must therefore be strong athletes with high stamina reserves. Daniel Ricciardo's workout regime is a carefully constructed assortment of physical challenges designed to push his body to the limit, most notably through the core and neck. With the immense strain and pressure placed on the body during races, drivers must be at the absolute peak conditioning, and Ricciardo is a shining example of what happens when you get it right. The McLaren driver recently took out the Italian Grand Prix at Monza, his first top-of-the-podium finish since 2018 and the English marque's first GP in nine years.In this episode we will learn what it takes to be a peak Formula 1 driver.Eight Sleep- get $150 off using code NEUROYou can find Michael here - instagram.com/michaelitaliano/You can follow me or contact me here ---Newsletter: https://bit.ly/3ewI5P0Instagram: thediamondboss_Twitter : louisanicola_YouTube: Louisa NicolaThe information provided in this show is not medical advice, nor should it be taken or applied as a replacement for medical advice.

Doug Evans is joining us today to speak about the powerful effects of sprouting.  This conversation opened my eyes to the possibilities of sprouts. This compound is present in all cruciferous vegetables. In animal studies, when glucoraphanin is chewed or swallowed, it produces a cancer-protective compound SULFORAPHANE. This sulforaphane absorbs toxins from the body and flushes them out through urine.The best way to get sulforaphane is to sprout your broccoli organic seeds in your own home. At between five and six days old, the sulforaphane in broccoli sprout contains up to 100 times more than in mature plant. The sprouts can also be used in smoothies, sandwiches, wraps or salad apart from juicing.Broccoli sprouts are now readily available in major retail stores, but make sure you buy organic, non-GMO, or better still buy the seeds and sprout at home. Doug is a pioneer in this space and in this episode we speak about sprouting peas, chick peas, beans and broccoli.If you enjoy this podcast, please leave a written review and let us know your thoughts or simply give us a star rating on spotify!

When it comes to sleep, Vitamin D impacts brain regions involved in sleep regulation and sleep wake cycles. The exact mechanisms by which Vitamin D affects and regulates these sleep mechanistic pathways is unclear, although it has been suggested that there are some areas within the brainstem that is affected by Vitamin D. Three things we will discuss:What vitamin D is- we seem to be confusedIts link to sleep VItamin D values and daily doses:Articles mentioned in the episode:https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/30660070/https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/30611908/https://academic.oup.com/sleep/article/38/2/251/2416956Thank you to our sponsor:Eight Sleep- get $150 off using code NEUROIn depth articles on what I speak about can be found here: https://neuroathletics.substack.com/You can follow me or contact me here ---Newsletter: https://bit.ly/3ewI5P0Instagram: thediamondboss_Twitter : louisanicola_Please leave a review on Apple iTunes!The information provided in this show is not medical advice, nor should it be taken or applied as a replacement for medical advice.

To live long, healthy lives, research suggests looking towards the gut microbiome to ward off chronic diseases like high blood pressure, heart disease, cancer, or type 2 diabetes. A whopping 46 million Americans are currently over 65 years of age. As Americans age, they are more at risk of developing Alzheimer's disease.In this part II of the podcast with Dr. Ralph Esposito, we discuss all things nutrition and hormones. We attack this from an athletic perspective and give reference to questions like "what are the hormones that athletes need to know about and what are we doing to mess these hormones up". Other things discussed in the episode:Herbs/ supplements What is oxidative damage and oxidative stress? How are reactive oxygen species formed and how can they harm your cells if present in high concentrations? How can you minimize the creation and negative impacts of reactive oxygen species in your body and brain?What is the best type of diet for your physiology.  Find Ralph here: instagram.com/dr.ralphesposito/Eight Sleep- get $150 off using code NEUROSpan Health: Get 35% off - code: LOUISAhttps://www.span.health/louisaIn depth articles on what I speak about can be found here: https://neuroathletics.substack.com/You can follow me or contact me here ---Newsletter: https://bit.ly/3ewI5P0Instagram: thediamondboss_Twitter : louisanicola_Please leave a review on Apple iTunes!The information provided in this show is not medical advice, nor should it be taken or applied as a replacement for medical advice.

Dr Austin Perlmutter, MD is back on the podcast to give us a a complete overhaul of the immune system, inflammation and what we can do to optimise for both.Some types of inflammation are damaging to the body, while others, usually more transient and playing a signaling role, can be beneficial. Chronic inflammation creates reactive oxygen species that damage DNA, cellular proteins, and lipids. This type of inflammation plays a key role in the development of many diseases, including cancer, cardiovascular disease, and diabetes.The immune system is the body's natural defense system. It does not reside in one single part of the body—rather, it is made up of a network of cells, molecules, tissues, and organs working together to protect the body.The most crucial part of this entire podcast?When Austin and I break down the what and the why behind increased inflammation and decreased immunity. We go into strategies and interventions you can use to have a better performing brain and live a healthier life.   Find Austin here on Instagram: @austinperlmutter Thank you to our Sponsors:Eight Sleep- get $150 off using code NEUROMUSE - get 10% off using code NEUROYou can follow me or contact me here ---Newsletter: https://bit.ly/3ewI5P0Instagram: thediamondboss_Twitter : louisanicola_Please leave a review on Apple iTunes!The information provided in this show is not medical advice, nor should it be taken or applied as a replacement for medical advice.

My guest today is a revolutionary thinker and medical doctor who's on a mission to make you younger. Scientists now know that short-term acute “stress” has powerful health and longevity benefits, as long as the stress subsides at some point.For example, it's long been known that exercise is good for us, but it wasn't exactly clear why. Hormesis is the likely explanation.Consuming nothing at all can also put your body into a temporary state of nutritional adversity. Extended malnourishment is not good, but smaller doses of calorie restriction can help promote longevity. Adam is the Chief medical officer and co-founder of Span Health. He is also a medical doctor focused on longevity and aging. His background is in internal medicine and oncology with an MSc in genomics.

I'm sure you are sick to death of the confusion surrounding COVID-19. I am too!The bottom line is is that there is so much confusion about what is going on and where exactly we are right now. Who should we trust? Who is right and who is just feeding us more politics?Most of the confusion comes from public officials and some physicians, those who we deem to trust, who have told lies and who have failed to abide by the laws that govern their industry. It's hard to not be angry when you hear a two year old crying about the masking mandate. Should we be masking kids?To help me cut through the noise, the confusion and endless bickering, I was fortunate enough to sit down with Dr. Vinay Prasad to The Neuro Experience podcast. The bulk of our conversion was about Covid-19, or more accurately, the stupidity surrounding it. The misinformation.A doctor who is at the forefront of public health and policy who lead me through the discussion on how to navigate through these tough times.Thank you to our sponsor:Somavedic- use code NEURO at checkoutYou can follow me or contact me here ---Newsletter: https://bit.ly/3ewI5P0Instagram: thediamondboss_Twitter : louisanicola_Please leave a review on Apple iTunes!The information provided in this show is not medical advice, nor should it be taken or applied as a replacement for medical advice.

If you're going to unlock the next level health enhancing, life lengthening and all round optimising benefits of sleep, then you're going to have to start treating a good night's rest like it matters, because it does- a whole lot.I recently interviewed Justin Medeiros, the worlds fittest man and winner of the 2021 Crossfit championships. He revealed his recovery techniques, his winning sleep routine and how he has incorporated sleep into his life to increase game day performance.The interesting part?

There is an old saying on Wall Street that the market is driven by just three emotions: fear and greed and uncertainty. Succumbing to these three traits are the biggest challenge that most people wanting ultimate success possess.Fear is what stops us from making the hard decisions. It's called F.O.M.OGreed pushes us to make the wrong decisions. At the end of the 20th century, extreme greed fueled a bubble.Uncertainty is a lack of confidence in our decisions. Investors face an uncertain economic future fraught with danger, risk, and false optimism. In this episode with Denise Shull, performance coach and former trader who uses neuroeconomics and modern psychoanalysis in her work with hedge funds and professional athletes. In this insightful episode Denise and I take a helicopter view of the brain of an investor and trader paying particular attention to the decision making processs, the limiting beliefs holding them from succeeding, how they make great decisions and they protect themselves form losses. We then finish up by cleaning up the confusion around the popular TV series ‘billions'. For those who don't know, Denise has finished a long battle against Showtime's TV series Billions. She answers alot of the questions around the lawsuit and reveals the truth behind the battle.  Sponsors:Eight Sleep- use code NEURO at checkoutSomavedic- use code NEURO at checkoutSocial:Newsletter: https://bit.ly/3ewI5P0Instagram: thediamondboss_Twitter : louisanicola_The information provided in this show is not medical advice, nor should it be taken or applied as a replacement for medical advice.

This episode is a part II dedicated to understanding the sleep stages. If you haven't done so yet, I urge you to listen to part I titled “2 Powerful Ways to Increase Your REM Sleep” so you get an understanding of the difference. Despite a better understanding of the genetic, physiological and environmental factors involved in the sleep-wake regulation, many people still don't get enough sleep—in fact, as many as one-third are not sleep enough, according to the National Sleep Foundation. One potential reason is the public's lack of information or even misinformation about sleep. In other words, a lot of people still believe a lot of the common myths when it comes to getting a good nights sleep. These myths aren't supported by current scientific evidence and are likely subtracting from your sleep health. In this episode we will cover what deep sleep is, the main processes associated with deep sleep and then we will finish off with some deep sleep blockers- that is, the things that you might be doing that are blocking your deep sleep.

We have a pandemic happening in our society. I'm not talking about COVID-19, I'm talking about the way in which coaches and trainers are training athletes without being properly credentialed. The coaching profession is ever changing. Coaches at each level of competition need to know more than just the Xs and the O's in order to be successful. As the primary individuals tasked with developing athletes from average to elite, they are challenged with not understanding how to optimise an athlete and get them to the NFL while also maintaining their health and well being for the long term. In this podcast I interview Pratik Patel and Alan Couzens on the intersection of performance and longevity. Alan coaches endurance athletes and uses the latest in science to optimise both performance and longevity. Ptraik is the assistant coach at the New York Giants.

This week's guest is neuroscientist + neurophysiologist, Louisa Nicola. If you're interested in discovering the root of human potential + how you can optimize yours from the perspective of Neuroscience, then this is going to be an EPIC one for you. At the young age of 15, Louisa became a competitive swimmer who went on to win her first triathlon at the age of 17. Recognizing her innate gift of athleticism + love for competitive sports, she became immersed in the science behind physical optimization. In 2011, Louisa was tragically hit by a car, forcing her to forfeit her title. Like the resilient woman that she is, she got back up + turned her incredible challenge into her passion + life's work.  When her coach profoundly said to her, “if you want to get back on the bike, it's going to be through the brain,” Louisa instantly realized how significant the brain was for human potential + athleticism. Today, she shares her extensive research as the founder of Neuro Athletics + host of one of the top 100 podcasts dedicated to neuroscience, neurology, and longevity, The Neuro Experience (one of my personal favorites). Louisa works with elite-level athletes + sports organizations around the world.  She is a trusted source in the world of sport, on learning the ways at which one can turn their BEST into BETTER by leaning into the optimization of brain health + performance. Some of the topics discussed in our talk are:  The essential pillars of longevity + healthspan Cognitive aging and the onset of Alzheimer's, how it develops, and how to prevent it. Sleep quality and its importance for ultimate brain health. REM vs. non-REM sleep, the difference, and the responsibility of each. The correlation between neuroinflammation + depression.

As long as there have been sports, there have been athletes in search of an advantage. Of all the ways to get ahead and have an inch of speed on your opponent, many have turned to performance enhancing drugs. I'm sure you've heard about them in just about every sport in the US, some of the best baseball players of all time have been accused of doping, American football players are regularly suspended for failing drug tests, and of course Lance Armstrong famously finally came clean about blood doping in 2012 vacating his seven Tour de France victories in the process. Some of these performance enhancing drugs have now reached the financial sector with some of the biggest financial institutions on Wall Street. These institutions are home to tired, hungry, competitive traders who all want that winning pill that will make them trade longer, faster and better.My guest today is Dr Carrie Jones- the hormone expert.Check her out here: https://www.instagram.com/dr.carriejones/Thank you to our sponsors:Timeline Nutrition: timelinenutrition.com - CODE: NEUROEight Sleep: eightsleep.com/louisa - CODE LOUISA for $150 off!Social: Instagram: thediamondboss_Twitter : louisanicola_ Newsletter: https://bit.ly/3ewI5P0The information provided in this show is not medical advice, nor should it be taken or applied as a replacement for medical advice.

In this episode you will learn the performance psychology principles needed to succeed in any area of life. Performance psychology is the systematic application of psychological principles and techniques to performance, particularly when there is a time element and one must perform on demand. The psychology behind a great performance really lies in one's ability to know themselves. I spoke with Dr. Dimitrios Tsatiris, MD who is a practicing board-certified psychiatrist specializing in the field of anxiety management. He is a Clinical Assistant Professor of psychiatry at Northeast Ohio Medical University.He studies and writes about the interface of anxiety and achievement. His popular Psychology Today blog “Anxiety in High-Achievers” is viewed by more than 20,000 readers per month.Thank you to our sponsors:Eight Sleep: https://www.eightsleep.com/louisaSocial: Newsletter: https://bit.ly/3ewI5P0Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thediamondboss_/Twitter : https://twitter.com/louisanicola_ The information provided in this show is not medical advice, nor should it be taken or applied as a replacement for medical advice.

There is plenty of advice for how to improve your sleep. I know I have spoken extensively on the topic and I am sure you have all heard about the importance of getting a good nights sleep. But it all comes down to the same assumption that you're doing something wrong, when in fact, it may not be your fault at all.  The amount of sleep you need is individualised however the timing of when to go to bed is actually determined by your genes! So stay tuned as we go into the neurobiology of a chronotype, the importance of determining our chronotype so you can train and recover at the right time. We will go into the scientific literature that explains the effectiveness of chronotypes and knowing your tchrontype then we will of course finish off with determining how to figure out your chronotype.  Thank you to our sponsors: Timeline Nutrition: timelinenutrition.com - CODE: NEUROEight Sleep:  https://www.eightsleep.com/louisaSocial: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thediamondboss_/Twitter : https://twitter.com/louisanicola_ Newsletter: https://bit.ly/3ewI5P0The information provided in this show is not medical advice, nor should it be taken or applied as a replacement for medical advice.

Its been hailed as the one key biometric anyone can measure easily that gives the best all-round indicator of health and stress on the body. As more devices are able to collect high-quality Heart Rate Variability (HRV) data during the night, a few questions come up:What data should we use as HRV score? What is a good HRV?Why is my HRV plummeting after a glass of wine?How can I increase my HRV?I have been wanting to dive deep into the HRV literature for quite some time. My community is very big on wearables such as wearing the WHOOP and our ring so they know what HRV is and they have, of course been asking me for advice on understanding HRV. I went out in search of the best person to talk to about this and came across Dan Plews an Applied Sports Scientist, Researcher and coach.Thank you to our sponsors:Eight Sleep:  https://bit.ly/2ULzSzaGet $150 off on any product at Eight Sleep Athletic Greens: http://athleticgreens.com/neuroFind Dan here: https://www.instagram.com/endure_iq/Social: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thediamondboss_/Twitter : https://twitter.com/louisanicola_ Newsletter: https://bit.ly/3ewI5P0The information provided in this show is not medical advice, nor should it be taken or applied as a replacement for medical advice.

Ketosis. It has become one of the most popular words of the 21st century. Often connected to weight loss plans, “ketosis” is also strongly associated with epilepsy: the ketogenic diet was first introduced by clinicians as a treatment for epilepsy in the 1920s. Over the last decade, researchers have been studying the effect of ketosis on other neurological and mitochondrial disorders, with promising results.The body's metabolic physiology undergoes profound changes when consuming a ketogenic diet. Ketoadaptation occurs when the body shifts from burning glucose as a primary fuel source to principally using fatty acids and ketones. Over time, the body's capacity to transport and utilize ketones upregulates, resulting in enhanced fat oxidation. In Today's episode, I sit down with Dr. Dom D'Agostino. He holds a PhD in neuroscientist and physiology and is a professor at the University of South Florida, and is probably most recognisable to people listening to this because he is certainly one of the foremost experts on ketosis, and that's in all variants of it; so starvation, ketosis, nutritional ketosis, keto diet for epilepsy, how the ketogenic diet related to TBI and in particular the use of exogenous ketones.  Thank you to our sponsor: Athletic Greens - https://athleticgreens.com/neuroUse my code to receive a one year supply of Vitamin D3 & k2 and 5 free travel packs! Social: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thediamondboss_/Twitter : https://twitter.com/louisanicola_ Newsletter: https://bit.ly/3ewI5P0Find more about Dom and his research here: Dr. Dominic D'Agostino's faculty bio pageKetoNutrition.org@DominicDAgosti2 on TwitterDom on FacebookThe information provided in this show is not medical advice, nor should it be taken or applied as a replacement for medical advice.

Sleep is essential for human health. Not getting enough sleep or having poor, fragmented sleep increases a person's risk of developing many chronic illnesses, including cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes. With nearly one-third of all adults in the United States reporting that they are sleep-deprived, the importance of getting a good night's sleep takes on tremendous significance which is why I have brought on Dr. Frank Lipman to the Neuro Experience podcast to discuss his latest book ‘better sleep, better you' which is available now for pre order. Dr Lipman is a vocal pioneer of integrative and Functional Medicine, or what he calls “good medicine.” Dr. Lipman is the founder of Eleven Eleven Wellness Center and the Chief Medical Officer at The Well.

Its safe to say that there is a hidden depression epidemic in the sporting world. Despite the alarmingly large amount of athletes acknowledging their depression, a lot remains unknown about the role inflammation plays in the development of depression. Now, many athletes have recently spoken up about their experience with depression and as I work closer and closer with elite athletes I am realising that things like jet lag, travel schedules, sleep deprivation and nutrition all aid in the diagnosis of depression by way of inflammation which is why I got Dr Charles Raison on the podcast to help us understand the link between inflammation and depression. Charles Raison,  is a professor at the School of Human Ecology at the University of Wisconsin-Madison and Founding Director of the Center for Compassion Studies in the College of Social and Behavioral Sciences at the University of Arizona. His research focuses on inflammation and the development of depression in response to illness and stress. He also examines the physical and behavioral effects of compassion training on the brain, inflammatory processes, and behavior as well as the effect of heat stress as a potentially therapeutic intervention major depressive disorder. In todays episode we go into  1:Relationship between depression and inflammation: 2. Mediators of inflammation 3. Temperature: heat vs cold 4. What role does hyperthermia play in depression and what are the therapeutic effects of whole-body hyperthermia for major depressive disorder.3. The role that sleep plays in inflammation and depression4.

Taking care of our bodies takes more than eating our veggies and lifting weights to build muscles. We need to take care of the most important muscle of all – our brains. This week, on the Danay Garcia Podcast, I sit down and talk all things brain with Louisa Nicola, a neuroscientist, neuropsychologist, host of “The Neuro Experience” podcast, and founder of Neuro Athletics. In her work with elite athletes, Louisa focuses on training the brain in partnership the body. An athlete herself, Louisa provides an approachable introduction to neuroscience, and together we explore the keys to caring for, training, and maximizing our brain power. Show some love to your beautiful brain, and ask yourself, what are the seeds you will plant and grow in your life?

What is a sports neurologist? With the dramatic increase in head injuries in football and other sports, this relatively new subspecialty of neurology has become increasingly prominent.We are joined today by one of the first board certified sports neurologists in the country- Dr. Stephanie Alessi-LaRosa, MD, a sports neurologist with the Hartford Healthcare Ayer Neuroscience Institute For any coach or trainer or athlete, you will want to tune in and take notes. This episode not only lays the foundation to understanding the necessity of a sports neurologist but it also introduces to the various neurological conditions that athletes from all different sports posses.Sports neurology is a relatively new specialty in neurology concerned with the study and management of sports-related neurologic injuries that may develop as a result of participation in athletic activities. Concussion is the most recognized example of a sport-related injury. However, athletes also experience injuries to the spine (spinal cord), peripheral nerves, and the neuromuscular system, and rarely, traumatic brain injuries of greater severity. "Baseline testing is a way to evaluate athletes prior to having a concussion or after fully recovering from a concussion where the testing can be repeated if an acute concussion is suspected and also to assist the clinician to determine when it is safe for them to return to play" ~ Dr. Stephanie Alessi-LaRosa, MDFind Stephanie here: https://bit.ly/3ok6oRXConnect with her on Twitter here:  https://bit.ly/2YnpmfHREVIEW/SHARE:If you enjoyed the episode and have a spare 1-2 minutes please leave a review on iTunes so the Neuro Experience podcast ranks higher and becomes more discoverable for other listeners.  Sign up to Louisa's email newsletter: https://bit.ly/37bR58XConnect with Louisa on Instagram: https://bit.ly/2SXPA5M

Exercise affects the brain in many ways. It increases heart rate, which pumps more oxygen to the brain. It aids the release of hormones which provide an excellent environment for the growth of brain cells. Exercise also promotes brain plasticity by stimulating growth of new connections between cells in many important cortical areas of the brain. Research from UCLA even demonstrated that exercise increased growth factors in the brain which makes it easier for the brain to grow new neuronal connections.Ryan Glatt is a psychometrist and Brain Health Coach at the Brain Health Center in the Pacific Neuroscience Institute. With a strong background in exercise science and human health, Ryan develops curricula specifically targeted towards those with dementia, Parkinson's disease, Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD), and traumatic brain injury, coaching individuals towards optimal brain health.The episode touches on the following points: What is the benefits of exercise on the brain - brain functionality and blood flow  FITLIGHT trainer- science behind the light. How do we get better cognitively by using reaction training software  What does science tell us in terms of what exercises to do for brain health Literature of athletes and brain health - transferable skills for cognitionPrecision medicine and brain health - functional medicine approachesThe disconnect between nutrition and exercise Nootropics I hope you all enjoy this episode!REVIEW/SHARE:If you enjoyed the episode and have a spare 1-2 minutes please leave a review on iTunes so the Neuro Experience podcast ranks higher and becomes more discoverable for other listeners.  Sign up to Louisa's email newsletter: https://bit.ly/37bR58XConnect with Louisa on Instagram: https://bit.ly/2SXPA5MFind Ryan here: https://bit.ly/3q3p9dE

This week on The Neuro Experience podcast I speak with Dr. Molly Maloof on blood sugar, hormones, self biohacking with labs and imaging and the importance of stress-relieving recovery practices.We also get into Glucose Monitoring, Mitochondrial Stress, & Mental Health. During the episode, Molly goes into discussing 'what is health' and what is 'sickness'? The old definition of health is that it is a static state. Molly is on a mission to radically extend healthspan, maximize human potential, and redefine health care using medicine, technology, education, & media. Her fascination with innovation permeates her concierge medical practice that is focused on providing personalized medicine to entrepreneurs, technology executives, investors, & celebrities in Los Angeles and the Bay Area.The new idea of health is the ability to adapt and manage it when faced with adversity! This statement was made abundantly clear throughout the organic conversation that Louisa and Molly have as they delve into the hormonal adaptations of women during their 30's and draws an insight into self diagnosis as a means for longevity - 'know thyself'. Homeostasis vs Allostasis, which is our ability to achieve stability through behavioral change and mental health through the ability of an individual to reach their potential, cope with stressors and contribute to their community.The key to healthy aging by fundamentally building bioenergetic capacity by building mitochondria, essentially our power plants. Find Molly here: https://drmolly.co/and https://www.instagram.com/drmolly.co/

There's a community of 38,000,000,000,000 microorganisms (mostly bacteria) living in and on us. Seeded by our mothers, this is our microbiome—our non-human half we can't live without. In an astonishing journey of symbiosis, microbes co-evolved with us, carrying in their genes, and therefore in us, the entire history of the world.The gut. Microbiome. Microbiota. Probiotics, probiotics. What on earth are these words and how do they affect the brain? We have all heard of the gut brain axis. I know I see the word being thrown around and it's almost impossible to not want to know more about it. This subject has always been a mystery to me because like you will learn in this episode, the microbiome is an entire universe. It takes so much knowledge and time to really understand it and it's relation to our lives and our health. So in order to understand this fully and in more depth I recruited the amazing Dr. Azza Gadir to the neuro experience to explore the depths of microbiome with us. Azza is an immunologist who completed her postdoctoral training in the laboratory at Harvard Medical School where her published research was focused on the immunological mechanisms that underlie the role of the gut microbiome in conferring protection to diseases early in life. For this work, she holds issued and pending patents and has collaborated with industry partners to accelerate the discovery of microbiome-related immunotherapies for food allergy.She is also the head of research and development at Seed. If you haven't checked them out please do so on Instagram and you will be just as inspired as me when you see their work of art literally coming to life on your phone. Seed is an ecosystem of scientists, doctors, innovators, entrepreneurs, and translational storytellers from around the world. Who collectively believe in the potential of the microbiome to improve human and planetary health. Together, they're raising the bar in bacteria.In this episode you will learn: What is the microbiome and how does it play a role in our BrainHealth Azza Gadir's career from start to finish- how women in science are shaping the worldWhat is the immune system and the ‘gut microbiome' The link between neurodegenerative disease and the gut microbiome What is B12 deficiency and is it related to the gut microbiome? How can we impact the function of our microbiome What is the ‘gut-brain axis' and the link between mental health and gut bacteriaBest diet to eat for a health microbiome How to protect your gut throughout the lifespan REVIEW/SHARE:If you enjoyed the episode and have a spare 1-2 minutes please leave a review on iTunes so the Neuro Experience podcast ranks higher and becomes more discoverable for other listeners.  Sign up to Louisa's email newsletter: https://bit.ly/37bR58XConnect with Louisa on Instagram: https://bit.ly/2SXPA5M

My guest today is Dr Aseem Malhotra, an NHS Consultant Cardiologist, and visiting Professor of Evidence Based Medicine. He is a world renowned expert in the prevention, diagnosis and management of heart disease.EPISODE SHOW NOTES HEREDr Aseem's passion for writing on and researching various health related issues has resulted in a vast quantity of published academic articles in major medical journals, as well as many other public acknowledgments.So today, As we continue to learn more about #COVID-19, we continue to see a pattern in those more at risk. People who aren't metabolically healthy (think obesity, type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and hypertension) are much more likely to experience severe complications if they are to get the virus. And to put that in perspective, only 1 in 8 Americans are considered metabolically healthy. That means a lot of us are at risk during this already alarming time. We can start changing that today, though, and create a newfound health baseline while creating a greater level of resilience when it comes to chronic disease and future situations like this. The #MetabolicSyndrome (MetS) has been called a global epidemic by the WHO1 and is considered a major public health problem, with 34% of Americans over the age of 20 estimated to be affected. Among adolescents, 9.4% are estimated to have MetS and the prevalence rises to 44.2% among those that are obese.MetS is known to affect cognition and raise the risk for dementia which is why I have introduced it twice now on The Neuro Experience podcast. In medicine, and specifically in medical training, there are three types of errors: technical errors, judgmental errors, and normative errors. (Technically, there is a fourth called quasi-normative errors, but we'll save that for another time.) Dr. Aseem draws on his experience in evidence based medicine and talks to us about making good judgement in medicine. In this episode you will learn: The five biomarkers of metabolic dysfunction  Dr. Aseem's personal experience with belly fat and excessive sugar intakeHealth disparities and COVID-19 outcomesMetabolic disease, excess body fat, and chronic inflammation lead to worse outcomes from COVID-19, as well as from the fluIntermittent fasting and the ketogenic dietDrivers of chronic disease and misery Evidence based medicine - why doctors need to stay up-to-date and informed Misinformation in the medical communityDr. Aseem can be found here.

There is no "magic pill" for your brain. It is part of a whole ecosystem that includes your body and all your surroundings—that means the artificial flavors, dyes and additives in your favorite junk food and the chemicals in the hair spray you just inhaled. Your brain is only 2 percent of your bodyweight, yet consumes 20 percent of the body's glucose. Naturopathic medicine is defined as a drugless, noninvasive, rational and evidence-based system of medicine imparting treatments with natural elements based on the theories of vitality, toxemia and the self-healing capacity of the body, as well as the principles of healthy living (Nair and Nanda, 2014).Naturopathic physicians combine the wisdom of nature with the rigors of modern science. Steeped in traditional healing methods, principles and practices, naturopathic medicine focuses on holistic, proactive prevention and comprehensive diagnosis and treatment. By using protocols that minimize the risk of harm, naturopathic physicians help facilitate the body's inherent ability to restore and maintain optimal health.Dr. Gonzalez became proficient in integrative oncology at the Cancer Treatment Centers of America through exposure to a range of disciplines and modalities. During his residency at the center, he was able to treat more than 700 patients and he had a long lasting impact on his patients, physically, spiritually, and emotionally. He was able to obtain his Doctor of Naturopathic Medicine at the University of Bridgeport College of Naturopathic Medicine in 2014. During his training, Dr. Gonzalez underwent clinical rotations in general medicine, botanical, oncology, homeopathy, pediatrics and mind-body medicine, including a preceptorship at the NYU Langone Integrative Urology Center. In this episode we discuss: 1.

If you've ever “gone with your gut” to make a decision or felt “butterflies in your stomach” when nervous, you're likely getting signals from an unexpected source: your second brain. Hidden in the walls of the digestive system, this “brain in your gut” is revolutionizing medicine's understanding of the links between digestion, mood, health and even the way you think. Scientists call this little brain the enteric nervous system (ENS). And it's not so little. The ENS is two thin layers of more than 100 million nerve cells lining your gastrointestinal tract from esophagus to rectum. Knowing that the gut affects the brain and understanding the far-reaching role of the microbiome has led this week's guest on The Neuro Experience to approach neurodegenerative conditions with a whole new perspective. Dr. Jay Lombard is an internationally acclaimed neurologist, author, and keynote speaker specializing in neuroimmunological conditions and medical mysteries. Dr. Lombard integrates biological, psychological, and existential components in his holistic treatment approach. I am thrilled to learn more about ALS, Alzheimer's and many other psychiatrist disorders in this episode and I'm sure you will too! I would love to know your thoughts!
