Mindsip insights from this episode:
Utilize creatine for brain health and neuroprotection
Creatine is not just a bodybuilding supplement; it is one of the safest, most-studied supplements that provides energy to your cells and is neuroprotective.
Consider creatine and omega-3 supplements for universal benefits
Regardless of blood test results, everyone should consider taking creatine monohydrate and omega-3 fatty acids for their universal benefits.
Monitor trends with sleep trackers for better health insights
Consumer sleep trackers like the Oura ring are not very accurate for sleep stage analysis but are useful for monitoring trends in heart rate variability and time in bed.
Prioritize sleep regularity over total sleep quantity
Research now shows that sleep regularity, going to bed and waking up at the same time, is more important for health than the total quantity of sleep.
Prioritize sleep to prevent negative epigenetic changes
A study found that sleeping only six hours per night for one week caused negative epigenetic changes to 3% of the human genome, turning on genes for tumor production.
Prioritize deep sleep to clear brain toxins
During deep sleep, the glymphatic system activates, allowing cerebrospinal fluid to wash out toxins and metabolic debris like amyloid beta from the brain.
Test omega-3 levels with OmegaQuant pinprick test
The OmegaQuant test by Dr. Bill Harris is a recommended pinprick test that accurately measures the percentage of omega-3s in your red blood cells.
Increase omega-3 levels to reduce mortality risk akin to smoking
Having the average US level of omega-3s in your blood (a 4% index) puts you in the same all-cause mortality risk category as a pack-a-day smoker.
