High Performance Health
Alcohol, Sugar, and Brain Function
This chapter explores the impact of alcohol and sugar on the brain, highlighting how they can hinder brain function and prevent reaching a peak state. They also discuss the harmful effects of stress on brain health and its potential for being more fattening than sugar.
Award-winning author, educator, researcher, entrepreneur, speaker and founder of Brain Tap, Dr Patrick Porter talks with Angela about the potential of the brain and explains how we can both limit and free up the potential of our brains
This is a fascinating insight into the many ways we can move our brains into a place where we can see the opportunities and act on them to bring what we want into our lives
Every day is about creating something new in the present and Dr Patrick also discusses in detail how to use Braintap effectively to bring the changes you want to create brainwave flexibility
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- All of our different brainwaves are important in the right context
- At night we cycle through all the different brainwaves and this builds our neurotransmitters
- When we are in a higher state of gamma we emit 200 times more light energy and the light energy is instructing your mitochondria to change your gene expression
- The more neuroplasticity we can bring into the brain the more our genes can express at their healthiest point
- Optimism is the key for the brain to function at its highest level
- In biohacking everyone needs to look at their own results and work out what works for them and implement it consistently
- We only use a limited amount of the total information available to us
- As we open up to the world opportunities open up that previously have been hidden because of our self-sabotaging behaviours
- We have to fix ourselves and realise that we live in a space of infinite abundance
- When we can start to change the paradigm of what we are doing we are moving into the thriving parasympathetic states
- When we monitor our brains and behaviours we are more able to predict our future, rather than our future predict our life
- We can change how we consciously participate in creating what we want
- You don’t have to have a breakdown to have a breakthrough you can choose to make a change
- People who survive and thrive have choices and you can learn to be a choice generator
BEST MOMENTS
‘People who are in joy and happiness produce 200 times more light energy, we are projecting our protons outwards all the time’
‘The brain's only job is to prove you right every day’
‘The more you can go through the different brainwave states the more variety of neurotransmitters you will have’
