Andrew Huberman interviewed scientist Dr. Rhonda Patrick about the science behind using micronutrients, SUPPLEMENTS, heat, and cold for optimal brain and body health.
KEY TOPICS DISCUSSED:
1) Plant compounds as “hormetic” stressors that activate beneficial genetic pathways: Sulforaphane in cruciferous veggies activates antioxidant and detox pathways. Small regular doses are helpful, toxic doses are very difficult to reach.
2) Omega-3 fatty acids, especially EPA and DHA, are POWERFUL anti-inflammatories that improve mood, cognition, cardiovascular health. Aim for 2-4 grams per day from fish or algae oil supplements. Measure Omega-3 Index for your status, https://omegaquant.com/omega-3-index-basic/.
3) Vitamin D acts as a hormone in cells throughout the body, regulates over 5% of protein-encoded genes. 70% of Americans are deficient. Supplement to reach blood levels of 40-60 ng/mL. Still need sun exposure for other benefits.
4) Magnesium assists hundreds of biological processes as an essential mineral. Leafy greens are high in magnesium but 40% of Americans still don’t get enough. 135mg magnesium citrate per day is a reasonable supplemental dose.
5) Both heat and cold stress induce hormetic pathways by releasing catecholamines like norepinephrine. But they diverge in other downstream mechanisms and effects.
6) Hot sauna 4+ times a week for 20+ minutes reduces cardiovascular mortality by 50% versus one use per week. Also drastically cuts dementia and Alzheimer’s disease risk in a dose-dependent manner. Sauna releases “heat shock proteins” that help prevent protein misfolding diseases.
7) Just 20 seconds of cold water immersion releases a surge of dopamine and epinephrine that enhances mood for hours. Cold adaptation takes consistent exposure over time — no longer shivering, increased brown adipose tissue, other metabolic enhancements.
