08 May 2024 | Ep. 14 Optimize Your Life With Circadian Rhythms: Repair, Reset and Rejuvenate with Dr. Satchin Panda | 01:51:09 | |
Every organ and every single cell has its own clock, its own circadian rhythm. Whether it’s for work, class, or an appointment- measuring success will include the ability to be on time. The same standard applies for circadian rhythms. Being on time with these clocks is the key to optimum performance, every single day.
Yes, it affects sleep. But in what ways can we ensure that we are operating at our peak physical, intellectual and emotional conduct? Dr. Amy Shah is joined by circadian rhythm expert, Dr. Satchin Panda to get to the bottom of it. Dr. Panda discovered the blue light-sensing cell type in the retina that entrains our entire master circadian clock. He is also a pioneer in the use of time-restricted feeding for prevention and reversal of metabolic diseases. Thank you Dr. Panda for your dedication to such a dynamic topic.

04 Mar 2024 | Ep.5: How to Optimize Your Brain Through Nutrition | 00:19:44 | |
How do we change our brain through nutrition? The idea that the brain is separate from the body is old news. We've come to find out that there is actually a very strong connection between the brain and gut. Not only that, but we can influence this connection by making changes to our diet. Activity in the gut affects the body as a whole which is why the saying "you are what you eat" holds more weight than we once thought. In this episode, Dr. Amy Shah talks about the ways we can nurture, understand and improve our health through this relationship.
