The Neuro Experience

As long as there have been sports, there have been athletes in search of an advantage. Of all the ways to get ahead and have an inch of speed on your opponent, many have turned to performance enhancing drugs. I’m sure you’ve heard about them in just about every sport in the US, some of the best baseball players of all time have been accused of doping, American football players are regularly suspended for failing drug tests, and of course Lance Armstrong famously finally came clean about blood doping in 2012 vacating his seven Tour de France victories in the process. Some of these performance enhancing drugs have now reached the financial sector with some of the biggest financial institutions on Wall Street. These institutions are home to tired, hungry, competitive traders who all want that winning pill that will make them trade longer, faster and better.My guest today is Dr Carrie Jones- the hormone expert.Check her out here: https://www.instagram.com/dr.carriejones/Thank you to our sponsors:Timeline Nutrition: timelinenutrition.com - CODE: NEUROEight Sleep: eightsleep.com/louisa - CODE LOUISA for $150 off!Social: Instagram: thediamondboss_Twitter : louisanicola_ Newsletter: https://bit.ly/3ewI5P0The information provided in this show is not medical advice, nor should it be taken or applied as a replacement for medical advice.

In this episode you will learn the performance psychology principles needed to succeed in any area of life. Performance psychology is the systematic application of psychological principles and techniques to performance, particularly when there is a time element and one must perform on demand. The psychology behind a great performance really lies in one's ability to know themselves. I spoke with Dr. Dimitrios Tsatiris, MD who is a practicing board-certified psychiatrist specializing in the field of anxiety management. He is a Clinical Assistant Professor of psychiatry at Northeast Ohio Medical University.He studies and writes about the interface of anxiety and achievement. His popular Psychology Today blog “Anxiety in High-Achievers” is viewed by more than 20,000 readers per month.Thank you to our sponsors:Eight Sleep: https://www.eightsleep.com/louisaSocial: Newsletter: https://bit.ly/3ewI5P0Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thediamondboss_/Twitter : https://twitter.com/louisanicola_ The information provided in this show is not medical advice, nor should it be taken or applied as a replacement for medical advice.

There is plenty of advice for how to improve your sleep. I know I have spoken extensively on the topic and I am sure you have all heard about the importance of getting a good nights sleep. But it all comes down to the same assumption that you're doing something wrong, when in fact, it may not be your fault at all.  No, I am not telling you to go and spend 3 hours at your favourite werq class either! The amount of sleep you need is individualised however the timing of when to go to bed is actually determined by your genes! So put down the melatonin gummies and stay tuned as we engage in some talkiatry about neurobiology of a chronotype, the importance of determining our chronotype so you can train and recover at the right time. We will go into the scientific literature that explains the effectiveness of chronotypes and knowing your tchrontype then we will of course finish off with determining how to figure out your chronotype.  Thank you to our sponsors: Timeline Nutrition: timelinenutrition.com - CODE: NEUROEight Sleep: https://www.eightsleep.com/louisaSocial: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thediamondboss_/Twitter : https://twitter.com/louisanicola_ Newsletter: https://bit.ly/3ewI5P0The information provided in this show is not medical advice, nor should it be taken or applied as a replacement for medical advice.

Its been hailed as the one key biometric anyone can measure easily that gives the best all-round indicator of health and stress on the body. As more devices are able to collect high-quality Heart Rate Variability (HRV) data during the night, a few questions come up:What data should we use as HRV score? What is a good HRV?Why is my HRV plummeting after a glass of wine?How can I increase my HRV?I have been wanting to dive deep into the HRV literature for quite some time. My community is very big on wearables such as wearing the WHOOP and our ring so they know what HRV is and they have, of course been asking me for advice on understanding HRV. I went out in search of the best person to talk to about this and came across Dan Plews an Applied Sports Scientist, Researcher and coach.Thank you to our sponsors:Eight Sleep:  https://bit.ly/2ULzSzaGet $150 off on any product at Eight Sleep Athletic Greens: http://athleticgreens.com/neuroFind Dan here: https://www.instagram.com/endure_iq/Social: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thediamondboss_/Twitter : https://twitter.com/louisanicola_ Newsletter: https://bit.ly/3ewI5P0The information provided in this show is not medical advice, nor should it be taken or applied as a replacement for medical advice.

This week’s conversation is with Matteo Franceschetti, the CEO of Eight Sleep.Get $150 off on any product at Eight Sleep : https://bit.ly/2ULzSzacode: NEURO at checkoutAmidst growing concern about COVID-19 infection, health officials have provided several recommendations to help individuals protect themselves and their families from infection, including washing hands regularly and maintaining a distance of at least six feet from anyone who is coughing or sneezing. Fortunately, a growing body of evidence suggests that an additional lifestyle modification could also dramatically improve your odds of avoiding infection—and that modification is getting more sleep.In this episode, Matteo and I sit down in a Q&A style and discuss the features of the mattress and he reveals insights into sleep that are quite compelling and fascinating. You will not only learn about the science of sleep but also the science of the technology and I am sure you will learn just as much as I did!Social: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thediamondboss_/Twitter : https://twitter.com/louisanicola_ Newsletter: https://bit.ly/3ewI5P0You can follow me or contact me here ---Newsletter: https://bit.ly/3ewI5P0Instagram: thediamondboss_Twitter : louisanicola_Please leave a review on Apple iTunes!The information provided in this show is not medical advice, nor should it be taken or applied as a replacement for medical advice.

There has been a lot of curiosity about the continued developments in the psychedelic therapy space recently. Designer drugs such as, Psilocybin, 3,4-Methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA) and lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD) have started to emerge within the athletic space.In May of 2019, a video was leaked featuring the Washington Capitals’ Evgeny Kuznetsov sitting near two lines of a white, powder-like substance that many presumed to be cocaine. It was taken while the team was in Las Vegas to play the Golden Knights. When I read this it immediately prompted me to find out more about what this substance does to the brain which is why I recruited the wonderful Dr David Rabin, MD PhD to the neuro experience podcast via clubhouse. Dr. Rabin specializes in treatment-resistant mental illnesses including depression, anxiety, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), psychosomatic disorders, personality disorders, chronic pain disorders, insomnia, and substance use disorders using minimal and non-invasive treatment strategies.“Psychedelic medicine is unique because it allows us, whether it's MDMA or LSD, or psilocybin or ketamine, to step outside of that default mode and look back at ourselves, and really reappraise what it means to be us,” he says.To take advantage of deals from our partners, head to the following links to claim your offer:Athletic Greens: athleticgreens.com/neuro AmpHuman: AmpHuman.com - Enter code: Neuro15 for 15% off anything on the site. The Neuro Athletics Newsletter Instagram: @louisanicola_Twitter : @louisanicola_YouTube: @Louisa NicolaThe Neuro Experience Podcast is proud to have hosted: Dr Andrew Huberman, Dr Gabrielle Lyon, Dr Layne Norton, Thomas DeLauer, Shawn Stevenson, Dr. Rocio Salas-Whalen, Saad Alam, Uma Naidoo, Dr. Lanna Cheuck, Angela Lee Pucci, Jillian Turecki, Dr. Jordan Feigenbaum, Dr. Darren Candow, Dr. Sue Varma, Evy Poumpouras, Dr Casey Means, Renee Deehan, Dr Chris Palmer, Dr Charles Brenner, Dr Joe Zundell, Dr Ray Dorsy, Dr Dale Bredeson, Dr. Ben Bikman Learn more about your ad choices.

Sleep is essential for human health. Not getting enough sleep or having poor, fragmented sleep increases a person's risk of developing many chronic illnesses, including cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes. With nearly one-third of all adults in the United States reporting that they are sleep-deprived, the importance of getting a good night's sleep takes on tremendous significance which is why I have brought on Dr. Frank Lipman to the Neuro Experience podcast to discuss his latest book ‘better sleep, better you’ which is available now for pre order. Dr Lipman is a vocal pioneer of integrative and Functional Medicine, or what he calls “good medicine.” Dr. Lipman is the founder of Eleven Eleven Wellness Center and the Chief Medical Officer at The Well. He is a sought-after international speaker and the bestselling author of six books.Thank you to our sponsor:Athletic Greens - https://athleticgreens.com/neuroUse my code to receive a one year supply of Vitamin D3 & k2 and 5 free travel packs!In this episode we discuss three main themes: 1.

Its safe to say that there is a hidden depression epidemic in the sporting world. Despite the alarmingly large amount of athletes acknowledging their depression, a lot remains unknown about the role inflammation plays in the development of depression. Now, many athletes have recently spoken up about their experience with depression and as I work closer and closer with elite athletes I am realising that things like jet lag, travel schedules, sleep deprivation and nutrition all aid in the diagnosis of depression by way of inflammation which is why I got Dr Charles Raison on the podcast to help us understand the link between inflammation and depression. Charles Raison,  is a professor at the School of Human Ecology at the University of Wisconsin-Madison and Founding Director of the Center for Compassion Studies in the College of Social and Behavioral Sciences at the University of Arizona. His research focuses on inflammation and the development of depression in response to illness and stress. He also examines the physical and behavioral effects of compassion training on the brain, inflammatory processes, and behavior as well as the effect of heat stress as a potentially therapeutic intervention major depressive disorder. In todays episode we go into  1:Relationship between depression and inflammation: 2. Mediators of inflammation 3. Temperature: heat vs cold 4. What role does hyperthermia play in depression and what are the therapeutic effects of whole-body hyperthermia for major depressive disorder.3. The role that sleep plays in inflammation and depression4.
