Mindsip insights from this episode:
Experience pleasure in effort through testosterone
The primary psychological effect of testosterone is not necessarily increased aggression or libido, but rather that it makes the act of exerting effort feel good.
Utilize nicotine for cognitive enhancement without cancer risk
Nicotine itself is a powerful cognitive enhancer that doesn't cause cancer, but the common delivery methods do, and it also raises blood pressure.
Train visual focus to enhance cognitive focus in ADHD
A behavioral tool for ADHD used in China involves training children to maintain visual focus on a distant target, which in turn improves their cognitive focus.
Recognize burnout as psychological, not adrenal fatigue
Burnout is not a physical 'adrenal burnout,' which is a myth, but rather a psychological state that typically occurs months after a stressful period ends.
Train your appetite with whole foods for better nutrition intuition
Eating unprocessed foods helps your brain learn to associate specific tastes with their nutritional content, developing a more accurate intuition for what your body needs.
Incorporate exercise snacks to boost VO2 max
Just 60 seconds of near all-out effort, like running up stairs, can serve as an 'exercise snack' to improve cardiovascular metrics like VO2 max.
Utilize NSDR for stress relief and restoration
Non-Sleep Deep Rest (NSDR) is perhaps the single best tool for limiting stress, improving sleep, and restoring mental and physical vigor.
Beware peptides that may accelerate tumor growth
Peptides that increase growth hormone, such as BPC-157, will also accelerate the growth of any existing tumors you may not be aware of.
