Have you ever heard these myths about sleep and anxiety? Myth #1: Lack of sleep is just a part of life and can't be improved. Myth #2: Anxiety is purely a mental issue that can't be resolved through physical means. Myth #3: GABA deficiency is a rare condition that doesn't impact many people. In this episode, we have Dr. Scott Sherr who will reveal the truth behind these misconceptions and share how addressing GABA deficiency can lead to relief from sleep and anxiety issues, ultimately improving your overall well-being.


In this episode, you will be able to:

  • Understand how GABA deficiency can contribute to various health issues.
  • Discover the connection between gut health and the production of GABA in the body.
  • Learn how GABA supplements can improve sleep quality and promote better rest.
  • Explore the benefits of using methylene blue for effective stress management.
  • Gain insights into balancing the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems for overall well-being.


My special guest is Dr. Scott Sherr.

Dr. Scott Sherr is a highly experienced clinician with over 15 years of practice. As the COO of Troscriptions, COO of Health Optimization Medicine, and a Board Certified Internal Medicine Physician, he has a deep understanding of GABA deficiency syndrome and its impact on sleep and anxiety. Dr. Scott emphasizes the importance of supporting the body's natural production of GABA through lifestyle changes and targeted supplementation.

With a focus on evidence-based approaches, Dr. Scott aims to educate individuals on the role of GABA in mental health and overall well-being.
