Do women need more sleep? If so, why? Or does it have to do with more outside factors? We dig into some new research.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Send us a textDo you struggle with sleep? You're far from alone—especially if you've served in the military. In this fascinating deep dive, research scientist Lindsay Hildebrand reveals how the disrupted sleep patterns military personnel experience can persist long after service ends, potentially leading to serious health consequences.Sleep isn't just about feeling rested. As Hildebrand explains, it's a critical biological process with profound implications for brain health. Poor sleep quality strongly correlates with earlier onset of conditions like Alzheimer's and Parkinson's. For veterans trapped in the vicious cycle of anxiety preventing sleep and sleep deprivation worsening anxiety, this connection is particularly troubling.But there's hope on the horizon. Hildebrand's work with the Social, Cognitive and Affective Neuroscience (SCAN) Lab focuses on groundbreaking non-pharmaceutical approaches to sleep disorders. Their research into Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) yielded remarkable results—just 40 seconds of targeted stimulation significantly improved sleep quality by quieting the brain's default mode network, responsible for those racing thoughts keeping you awake.Even more accessible is their light therapy research, now recruiting for the largest Department of Defense light therapy study ever conducted. This completely remote study provides specially designed glasses participants wear for just 30 minutes each morning, potentially resetting disrupted circadian rhythms without medication.What makes these approaches revolutionary is their simplicity and effectiveness. Rather than just treating symptoms, they address underlying neurobiological processes, potentially breaking the sleep-anxiety cycle that plagues so many veterans.Want to participate or learn more? Active duty personnel from any branch and veterans separated within the last five years may qualify for the nationwide light therapy study. Visit the SCAN Lab website through the University of Arizona to see if you're eligible to contribute to this groundbreaking research—and possibly transform your sleep in the process.

In this episode, Jenn shows us how. On this episode of Salad with a Side of Fries, host Jenn Trepeck is here to help you uncomplicate your health journey. From focusing on what works for your body to tuning out the endless noise of health content online, Jenn breaks down the essentials—clean eating, movement, sleep, stress management, including the power of social connection, and the role of supplements. Learn why consistency matters more than perfection, how to listen to your body's signals, and why sleep might be the ultimate biohack. It's time to simplify, take control, and make wellness work for you—without the stress!The Salad With a Side of Fries podcast is hosted by Jenn Trepeck, who discusses wellness and weight loss for real life, clearing up the myths, misinformation, bad science & marketing surrounding our nutrition knowledge and the food industry.

Simplify your wellness by focusing on what works for you and limiting the experts you follow to avoid confusion and decision fatigue.Our bodies are wired to respond to stress as a survival mechanism, but modern-day stressors—like emails and phone notifications—trigger the same physiological response as life-threatening situations. This prolonged fight-or-flight state shuts down essential functions like digestion, immune response, and detoxification, contributing to long-term health issues.Simple actions like deep breathing before meals, movement, quality nutrition, fresh air, and social connection can help regulate stress and improve overall well-being. Prioritizing sleep and establishing consistent routines further support mental and physical health.Supplements can be a powerful tool to add on, but they cannot take the place of other healthy lifestyle choices.QUOTES: (07:48) “No expert knows your body better than you do.

Dr. Boros holds a Doctor of Medicine (M. D.) degree from the Albert Szent-Györgyi School of Medicine, Szeged, Hungary and is a retired Professor of Pediatrics, Endocrinology and Metabolism of the University of California Los Angeles (UCLA) School of Medicine. Dr. Boros is the co-inventor of the stable isotope-based dynamic metabolic profiling (SIDMAP) technology, which is a functional biochemistry tool used for detailed biochemical and deutenomics related drug testing, library screening, lead optimization and in vitro and in vivo phenotype profiling. The core technology involves studying natural and disease/drug induced variations in stable non-radiating stable 13C (carbon) and 2H (deuterium) isotope distribution patterns and cross talk among metabolites in living systems. He also established mitochondrial quantum vacuum as the prime driving force of all life related energy producing biochemical events. These occur via the quantum destabilization of hydrogen ions, i. e. protons, in structured water of mitochondrial nano-confinements that are compromised by deuterium; hence the regulation of deuterium (deutenomics, human deutenome project) is a critical process to maintain health and longevity.Dr. Boros trained as a house staff in his medical school in gastroenterology after receiving a research training fellowship from the Hungarian Academy of Sciences.  Dr. Boros was a visiting Scholar at the Essen School of Medicine in Germany and also worked as a Research Scientist at the Ohio State University, Department of Surgery.  Dr. Boros is the recipient of the C.

My dad is a pharmaceutical drug representative, and my mom is a dental hygienist in a maximum security all-male prion. (5:42) • Sexually violent predators are people who have committed some type of sex crime. They have been deemed to have some type of mental illness or defect, and there's a belief that they will commit another sex crime. (15:59) • Whenever we sleep – if you're a normal, average healthy sleeper, you should go through various sleep cycles. You should be cycling through light sleep, deep sleep, REM sleep and you're gonna be cycling through these several times a night. (23:18) • REM sleep (Rapid Eye Movement) sleep, is most famous for having dreams. (23:44) • Folks who have problems sleeping – there are so many things you can to help yourself. (38:12) • Going to bed at the same time every night and waking up at the same time every morning. This is key. (39:4) • We are inducing our own jet lag when we go from 6am Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, then go down to 9am on Saturday and Sunday. The brain gets very confused.  (43:11) • I have been a psychologist for the FBI for 5 years now, and that entire time I will be helping people with trauma. I'm certified with EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) and brain spotting. I love those, but I also help people with sleep. (45:10) • In my work, folks experience things and see things that we should not be asking normal human beings to see. (47:04) • [Marcus] When you're doing your job and you're runnin' and gunnin' - no matter what it is - and it tarts creeping into your dreams, that means your database is full. (50:25) • Taking time to reflect either alone or with someone you trust: How is this impacting me? What's happening? (51:36) • I have a book coming out on sleep coming out on sleep. It's called The Sleep Advantage. (56:02) • If you're really getting good sleep, it can impact your decision-making, and your reaction time. It can make you the best of the best; it can impact your performance.
