Episode notes
NeuroGum Born From A Snowboarding Injury And Performance Needs
- NeuroGum began from Kent and cofounder Ryan wanting a clean, portable focus supplement after Ryan's paralyzing snowboarding accident.
- They created gum/mints as a shareable, discreet alternative to energy drinks and pills.
Use Glycine And Micro Melatonin For Better Sleep
- Use targeted supplements and routines to improve sleep quality, not high doses or gimmicks.
- Kent highlights glycine, micro-dosed melatonin (~0.6 mg), blackout curtains, temperature control, and daytime exercise as practical tactics.
Use Running As A Non Negotiable Cognitive Reset
- Make endurance exercise a non-negotiable habit for cognitive benefits and sleep.
- Kent runs daily (4+ miles) and trains ultra distances; he says skipping runs ruins his day and sleep quality.
