Huberman Lab discusses neuroscience: how our brain and its connections with the organs of our body control our perceptions, our behaviors, and our health. You can change your life and Mel Robbins will show you how. Mechanisms underlying enhanced creativity in cannabis users, Adults with a history of recreational cannabis use have altered speech production, Individual prolactin reactivity modulates response of nucleus accumbens to erotic stimuli during acute cannabis intoxication: an fMRI pilot study, Bayesian causal network modeling suggests adolescent cannabis use accelerates prefrontal cortical thinning, Association of cannabis potency with mental ill health and addiction: a systematic review, NSDR Protocol with Dr. Huberman on YouTube, Nicotinic receptors and cannabinoid receptors are not in the brain for smoking tobacco or marijuana; they are endogenous receptors that support specific functions (such as acetylcholine) when appropriate, Cannabis dependence: when smoked or ingested, THC and CBD bind to cannabinoid receptors and tap into endogenous receptors with much more potency your endogenous receptors are outcompeted, Sativa strains increase mood, alertness, and focus of the prefrontal cortex while decreasing stress and threat detection in the amygdala this combination allows people to enter narrowed focus, Indica strains reduce the activity of the prefrontal cortex and induce relaxation and sedative effects but also lead to profound defects in short-term memory because it reduces the activity of the hippocampus, There are no predictors of what your reaction will be to a given strain (e.g., whether you experience relaxation or paranoia), Cannabis increases creativity but through changes in personality that tap into the creative process, rather than directly impacting the neural circuits that, for instance, turn on creativity., Smoking cannabis increases prolactin levels (especially in those who smoke more than twice per week); dopamine and prolactin are mutually inhibitory this is important in sexual arousal which will be suppressed if prolactin is elevated with cannabis use, Fertility: THC (not CBD) is inhibitory for gonadotropin-releasing hormone which ultimately reduces testosterone in men, ovarian health in women, Cannabis use itself makes people 4x likelier to develop a chronic, major depression., Chronic cannabis is not safe for the developing brain and body because of thinning of gray matter that occurs risks include depression, anxiety, psychotic events, inability to balance mood, The more potent the THC concentration, the higher the likelihood of developing a major anxiety disorder or psychotic episode later in life, Cannabis contains over 70 psychoactive compounds and 400 biologically active compounds, most notably THC (tetrahydrocannabinol), CBD (cannabinoid), and CDN (cannabinol), Cannabis plants come in different genetic strains naturally and via hybridization, Hybrid strains combine sativa and indica strains to give rise to nuanced brain and body effects, If you take synthetic estrogen or testosterone, they have super-physiologic effects, Endogenous cannabinoids are released from neurons, Unlike most neurotransmitters, endogenous cannabinoids are released from post-synaptic neurons, Endogenous CB1 and CB2 receptors are present throughout development, starting at fetal development, CB1 receptor activation is critical for every aspect of brain wiring and development, You should not use cannabis during pregnancy or breastfeeding CBD is no safer (yet about 15% of pregnant mothers admit to cannabis use during pregnancy), Within 30-60 minutes cannabis reaches its peak effects which lasts 3-4 hours generally (but it depends on the body and frequency of use), Whatever effect you feel (alert, anxious, paranoid, calm, etc.) The science and logic for each tool are described.

In this episode, I discuss cannabis (aka marijuana), including the biological mechanisms underlying its effects on the mind and body, its known medical applications, its impact on libido, creativity, hunger, hormones and more. Premium. Events. Just like exercise, the best form of meditation is the one you do consistently, Turning focus on breathing pattern can in itself be a form of meditation practice, General rule of breathwork: if inhales are longer than exhales, you will shift into more alert state; if you focus on longer, more vigorous exhales you will relax, Three main considerations of meditation practice: (1) exteroceptive versus interoceptive focus; (2) breathing pattern; (3) continuum between interoception and dissociation. Dr. Andrew Huberman is a tenured Professor o In this episode of the Huberman Lab podcast, Andrew Huberman takes a deep dive into all things cannabis: biological mechanisms underlying its effects, medical applications, impact on body systems, adverse health consequences, and much more.

It could be a sign youre not good at utilizing carbohydrate stores for fuel (not to be confused with using caffeine for a better workout), To get better at managing energy throughout the day: (1) make sure protein is stabilized; (2) ingest food in the right combinations with fiber and/or protein; (3) train at high intensity to get better at utilizing carbohydrates; (4) consume carbohydrates as fuel prior to workout, Lactate (to a threshold) is not the cause of fatigue its actually fuel for the body: as fatigue increases, lactate will increase to try to buffer the negative consequences of energy generation, The best way to train for muscular endurance is to practice frequently to the point of failure, To improve anaerobic capacity, shoot for 5-6 minutes all out with max heart rate broken up into intervals (can vary length from 20-90 seconds with sufficient rest to allow a return to nasal breathing), To train aerobic capacity: 5-15 minute bout of max effort, one round, If you want to hit anaerobic capacity and max aerobic capacity training: do 1 of each per week one day can be shorter interval repeat and the other can be a 5-15 minute max effort push, To optimize endurance, you need to analyze which element of endurance is lacking or needs to be improved, Start with proper breathing efficiency trumps force, Practicing nasal breathing will often fix breathing issues, You need to train across the full spectrum of endurance dont just do 45 minutes of steady state or only 30 minutes of high-intensity exercise, Increasing lung capacity will not increase fat loss (the theory being that you could offload more carbon per exhale), Cardiac output will adjust to remain neutral to energy demands, Resting heart rate goes down shoot for sub 60 beats per minute, Efficiency improves, meaning you can do more work at a certain heart rate, High-performance VO2 is above 1, meaning you offload more carbon dioxide than is necessary you breathe heavily after to try to repay the oxygen debt, Sleep actually burns a good amount of fat, With lower-intensity exercise, a greater percentage of fuel is coming from fat but total fuel expenditure is low the highest youll ever get is 60% of fuel from fat, You will never be in a position, ever, no matter what sort of thing youve heard on the internet youll never be in a situation where fat is your only fuel source., What happens during fat loss: body biases energetics toward different fuel sources any carbs go to storage, and any fat is used as a fuel source because its excess and doesnt need it, Burning fat does not equal losing fat from the body, You will not enhance fat loss by doing cardio after weight training, assuming energy expenditure is balanced, If you need glucose, youll start pulling from blood, not the liver the liver will start to see a problem if training is extremely long (hours) or the intensity is through the roof for a long period, Youll quit almost immediately if your liver is done because theres no backup reserve liver depletion sends a signal to the brain to stop; its not about willpower, You need carbohydrates and fat to tap into different energy systems in the body if you need to run up a hill you have carbohydrates; if you need to run for hours you have fat, This idea is called being metabolically flexible and is ideal for most of the population but ideal for high-performing athletes depending on the sport, Its a problem if you crash with a reasonable dosage of carbs or if you cannot perform a standard workout (e.g., a 15-minute loop you do regularly) fasted. Dr. Huberman will discuss neuroscience: how our brain and its connections with the organs of our body control our perceptions, our behaviors, and our health.

Here we provide a simple one stop shop to his. I also cover the known adverse health consequences of chronic and even acute (one-time) use and the . where the risk of injury is minimal, Pros & cons of fewer sets: you can train to 100% effort but the downside is the ability to get high volume, Training dose: as many as needed to get to maximum heart rate, typically around 1-3; at least twice per week, Time domain matters if its a one-mile sprint, youll only do it once; in a 20-second burst you can repeat, Sample 1: 30 seconds on, 30 seconds off protocol minimum 4 rounds per bout, at least 1-2 days per week youll cause problems if you try to hit too many days per week, Sample 2: 20 seconds on, 30 seconds off for improved recovery between effort x 6-8 rounds, 1-2 days per week, Play with bursts of varying length, lasting around 20 seconds but no longer than 90 seconds, Rest needs to be sufficient enough to return back to the point of nasal breathing, Round 1: take two minutes to cover as much distance as you can (example 400m), Round 2: Cover the distance you made it in round 1 but it doesnt matter how long it takes you (example 2 minutes 5 seconds), Round 3: use the time domain of Round 2 (example 2 minutes 5 seconds) and cover as much distance as possible, Time frame 5-15 minutes at maximum intensity, Clearing of waste will be a major issue but oxygen demand will take a more prominent role, You want to be doing something where there is no off switch or transition time, Diaphragmatic fatigue is real during max heart rate you will start running into failure until you are more sufficiently trained; the time domain is long so clearing and pH wont be a problem, Train diaphragm and intercostals: pay attention to technical breakdown and inability to maintain posture, You could do steady state on a rest day or after strength training (depending on which is the main goal), Example: you want to run your first half marathon, Accumulate 60-70% of mileage in a moderate intensity zone, Spend 10% of training in 20-second burst arena to drive up fatigue and maximize your ability to recover from waste production; spend the remaining time in max speed, Spend the remaining time in a 5-15 minute zone, for example, 800m run rest & repeat, You dont want just to spend time in a long duration steady state, accumulating miles regularly divide into different stimuli to support. This episode, I explain what major depression is at the biological and psychological level and the various treatments that peer-reviewed studies have reveale. Most studies have looked at aerobic exercise, which tends to work best when done 30 minutes after waking, 3 hours after waking, or 11 hours after waking when body temperature tends to peak.
