Dr. Martin Picard, PhD, is a professor of behavioral medicine at Columbia University and an expert on how our behaviors and psychology shape cellular energy production and rates of aging. He explains that your mitochondria don’t just “make energy”; they translate what you do—your mindset and your relationships—into the energy you experience as vitality or lack thereof. He explains how exercise, nutrition, sleep, meditation, and even certain thought patterns and our sense of purpose can charge our cells like batteries. He also shares findings that hair greying is the result of cellular stress and is reversible. This episode links physical and mental ‘energy’ with cellular energy and provides science-supported tools to improve your physical and mental health.Show notes: https://go.hubermanlab.com/dHanxYLThank you to our sponsorsAG1: https://drinkag1.com/hubermanHelix: https://helixsleep.com/hubermanLingo: https://hellolingo.com/hubermanFunction: https://functionhealth.com/hubermanWaking Up: https://wakingup.com/hubermanFollow Huberman LabInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/hubermanlab Threads: https://www.threads.net/@hubermanlabX: https://twitter.com/hubermanlab Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/hubermanlab TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@hubermanlab LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/andrew-hubermanWebsite: https://www.hubermanlab.com Newsletter: https://www.hubermanlab.com/newsletterDr. Martin PicardPersonal website: https://martinpicard.energyLab website: https://www.picardlab.org Academic profile: https://www.neurology.columbia.edu/profile/martin-picard-phd Publications: https://www.picardlab.org/all-publications.html TEDx talk: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=idJo0hpLhyI Resources: https://www.picardlab.org/resources.html Scientific American: https://www.scientificamerican.com/author/martin-picardX: https://x.com/MitoPsychoBio LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/mitopsychobio Timestamps00:00:00 Martin Picard00:03:50 What is Energy?, Energy Flow & Transformation00:07:53 Energy, Vitality, Emotions, Sensory Perception00:14:18 Sponsors: Helix Sleep & Lingo00:17:19 “Mito-Centric” View of World, Mitochondrial Energy & Information Patterns00:25:26 Organelles, Mitochondria & Energy Transformation; Maternal Genes00:31:12 Mitotypes & Differentiation, Mitochondria as “Social Organisms”00:36:52 Food & Dysfunctional Energy Transformation00:40:02 Lifestyle Choices & Interests, Physiological Growth00:46:39 Pregnancy, Amenorrhea; Illness & Tiredness00:51:07 Sponsor: AG100:52:29 Energy Transformation & Distribution; Body’s Wisdom, Feeling Sick00:56:27 Tool: Feel Your Energy; Breath & Energy01:02:31 Flow of Energy; Trade-Offs, Life Purpose & Enjoyment01:10:15 Biology, Meaningful Experiences & Energy Flow01:16:27 Sponsor: Function00:18:15 Inflammation, Energetic Flow01:20:43 Child Prodigies, Species Lifespan & Mitochondrial Metabolism; Aging01:28:56 Lifestyle & Aging: Exercise, Fasting; Inflammation, Sleep, Stimulants01:37:06 Energetic Stress Signals, GDF-15, Cancer, Heart Failure01:42:18 Genes, Lifestyle & Aging01:47:54 Gray Hair Reversal, Stress; Inflammation & Aging01:57:37 Energy Recovery, Sleep & Mitochondrial Function, Stress, Meditation02:05:16 Tools: Yoga Nidra, NSDR; Pre-Sleep Relaxation, Energy & Restorative Sleep02:10:58 Diet Individualization, Clinical Trials; Mitochondria & Nutrition, Keto02:20:14 Alcohol; Energy Budget; Stress02:25:02 Exercise, Increase Mitochondria, Overtraining; Resistance & Growth02:33:06 Sponsor: Waking Up02:34:41 Supplements & Mitochondria Health, Deficiencies, SS31, Methylene Blue02:41:31 Energy Flow; Experiences, Balance02:49:13 Transform Through Resistance, Energetic Awareness, Connection02:56:05 Food Over-consumption Mitochondria Disruption; Tissues & Mitochondria03:01:02 Mitochondrial Health Test; Tool: Ways to Increase Energy; Meditation03:06:10 Peptides; Fertility Supplements, Urolithin A; Electromagnetic Fields03:12:16 Acknowledgements03:14:15 Zero-Cost Support, YouTube, Spotify; Apple Follow, Reviews; Feedback,Sponsors, Protocols Book, Social Media, Neural Network Newsletter#HubermanLab #Science #Longevity Disclaimer & Disclosures: https://www.hubermanlab.com/disclaimer
