Today, I am joined by leading health optimization expert Dr. Rhonda Patrick to dive deep into the science of sleep, exercise, and longevity. Dr. Patrick brings her extensive research background and practical experience to explain how sleep deprivation affects glucose regulation and brain function, and why high-intensity exercise is crucial for optimal health. She shares fascinating insights about the importance of protein intake, omega-3 fatty acids, and exercise timing while debunking common myths about aging and nutrition. This conversation is packed with actionable protocols and evidence-based strategies to help you optimize your health and performance.
