This is Dr Sten Ekberg, who miraculously triggered within me a desire for exercise. At 35:40, he says, "Movement stimulates your brain, and when your brain grows stronger, especially the frontal lobe, which is your cognitive center, which is your motivation, which is your management, which is your abstract thought. It's what makes you human. When that brain gets stronger by this activation, it helps balance your stress responses. It helps balance your sympathetic and your parasympathetic nervous system. And because of that improved balance, now is why you feel better, now is why your mood improves, your focus improves. You are strengthening cells. You are improving neural networks. You are less prone to get dementia. You're managing stress better. You're healing better because of the balance between the sympathetic and parasympathetic."

He's my top choice on YouTube. So clear on how our bodies work, and what to do to optimize health.

He doesn't have all the letters like Andrew Huberman, who is bulletproof, but he does explain things well, and stands firm on the importance of regular exercise.

Andrew Huberman is where I learned about AG1 they are one of his sponsors, I was watching a podcast about eye health he was doing and he did a little blurb so I decided to give it a try, glad I did because it's helped me with digestion, killed off some of my cravings and restored some of my energy. It would probably do more for me if I used it every day, but it would break my fast, so no. I'm 47.5 hours in and still feeling pretty darn good. I have not even needed pickle juice this time around. I think bumping my RDI up was the right way to go.

Awesome to no cravings 🙂 Huberman has some stuff on fasting and I need to listen over and over it seems. He gets so deep into the science and quoting studies my mind wanders and I miss big chunks of it!

I was looking at red light therapy for eyes at the time, I did not dig any deeper into his casts after that, I will have to check out his views on fasting. I noticed he does do a lot of medical jargon from the studies. I would pause and look up anything I did not understand so I could keep up with exactly what he was talking about.
