Friends,I recently sat down with Dr. Colleen Cutcliffe, CEO of Pendulum Therapeutics, for a discussion about probiotics, metabolism, and a potential natural alternative to GLP-1 drugs like Ozempic. Here's why I'm excited to share this with you...The BackstoryA month ago, I ran into a friend who had slimmed down and was looking fit. These days, I’ve had a good dozen or so friends lose weight with GLP-1 drugs, so I was surprised when she told me it wasn’t Ozempic but Pendulum's new GLP-1 probiotic. Her chocolate cravings (her usual downfall) had changed entirely. Instead of demolishing a whole bar, she could have one bite and walk away satisfied.I've known Pendulum for years (we invested at True), and I've personally used their glucose control product with great success. However, I had lost touch with Colleen and didn’t realize they had a new GLP-1 product — so I asked her to come on the podcast and discuss it.Note: Peter Attia did a much longer and more thorough deep-dive with Colleen, found hereWhat Makes This Different?In my interview with Colleen, she explained how their probiotic actually helps your body produce its own GLP-1 hormone naturally. The science is fascinating – they've identified specific strains of bacteria that, when delivered to your gut's distal colon, help stimulate natural GLP-1 production. No shots, no prescription.The results are pretty impressive; 91% of users reported reduced food cravings after six weeks*, and the higher the initial cravings, the more significant the improvement.Why This MattersOver the last year+, I've watched friends scramble to find GLP-1 prescriptions, hitting up sketchy compounding pharmacies, or paying astronomical prices when their insurance won't cover them. It's wild out there.But obesity isn't just about weight – it's tied to heart disease, diabetes, cancer, and even cognitive decline (some scientists are calling Alzheimer's "Type 3 diabetes"). We need better solutions that are both accessible and backed by science.Join Our Mini-TrialSadly, the trial is now closed — thanks to all who participated! What's Next?We'll be collecting data throughout the trial and sharing the results with participants. Stay tuned for updates on how the community is progressing.Exciting stuff ahead! As always, I'd love to hear your thoughts and experiences if you decide to participate.Until next time, be well,*based on a consumer survey of 274 people This is a public episode.

SHOW NOTESTwo big reasons for having today's guest on the show, and how I've been using Sanbo Zen meditation to stay mentally engaged and emotionally grounded during the pandemic. [00:00]Who is Andrew Huberman? [03:35]What's new and exciting in the world of neuroscience: how did we get here, who's getting involved, and where are we going? [05:26]What practical applications of neuroscientific discoveries does Andrew see becoming available in the not-too-distant future? [13:37]What is the vagus nerve, and how can it be manipulated to promote physical and mental well-being? [16:25]The therapeutic potential of neuromodulation and how it compares to traditional treatments. [24:46]Does treating neurological disorders (such as depression) with these new technologies last over the long haul, and is there concern they're just relieving symptoms without addressing their root causes? [27:06]Until this technology becomes available to consumers, what does Andrew suggest for people looking to improve their mood, hone their focus, and feel more productive? [31:53]Why exposing yourself to bright, natural light early in the day is essential for establishing optimal sleep patterns, how much is ideal, and why getting outside for your daily dose is key. [34:36]Why Andrew doesn't endorse blue-light blocking glasses to alleviate the effects of late-night exposure, and what he recommends instead. [38:46]Breathing exercises for stress reduction: physiological sighs contrasted with the Wim Hof method. [42:07]A practice Andrew considers to be "the one that has had the greatest effect on everything from ability to buffer stress [to] learning and memory": yoga nidra, or NSDR (non-sleep deep rest). [49:04]Nostril breathing versus mouth breathing. [52:32]How it's currently believed the glymphatic system works to remove neurotoxic waste from our brains as we sleep, protecting us against degenerative conditions like Alzheimer's disease. [57:29]Why Andrew does not recommend melatonin supplements for sleep -- and what he uses instead. [1:01:29]Supplements that may increase testosterone. [1:06:31]The pros and possible cons of creatine. [1:08:04]Why men shouldn't treat estrogen like an enemy, and what we should know about turmeric's effect on DHT. [1:08:44]Why there's no catch-all supplement to increase "cognitive" function, and one of the surprising compounds some of Andrew's Nobel-winning colleagues take for focus that he doesn't personally recommend. [1:10:15]Some cognitive-boosting supplements Andrew does recommend (and a few more he definitely does not). [1:11:54]Parting thoughts.

In this episode, Kevin speaks with Josh Clemente about continuous glucose monitors, insulin, metabolic health, tips for hacking glucose levels, and more.Josh Clemente, Founder of Levels, is a mechanical engineer and CrossFit-L2 trainer. At SpaceX, he led a team to develop life support systems that sustained astronauts Bob Behnken and Doug Hurley on their May 2020 trip to the International Space Station aboard Dragon Endeavor: the first new crew-carrying spacecraft since 1980. Josh has also spent time designing and building Hyperloop technology at Virgin Hyperloop One and leading engineering for a company providing vehicle-based rescue systems for emergency response teams.SHOW NOTESWhat does metabolic health entail, and why should we care about tracking glucose? [01:36]What changes our metabolic health as we age, and what drew Josh's attention to this as a serious issue? [03:58]With so many dietary choices available, how can we know what will work for our optimal health? Hint: it's highly individual (with a possible exception for people who share an identical twin). [07:52]Why Josh and I constantly monitor our own glucose levels even though we're not diabetic or even pre-diabetic, and why even the healthiest among us should consider doing the same. [12:16]Why do health providers seem hesitant to prescribe CGMs as a preventative measure? How long does Josh think it's going to be before we see CGMs being available to consumers over the counter, and what are the potential risks to be aware of? [20:22]When 88 percent of American adults are metabolically unhealthy, how do we determine what constitutes a "healthy" blood glucose range? [26:00]How does Josh stay within what he considers a healthy range? [29:16]What physical exercise does Josh consider optimal for maintaining a healthy range, and how close to mealtime is ideal? [31:23]How does Sauna usage affect the data? [35:11]Why we shouldn't take the glycemic index at face value. [36:48]How important is sleep to maintaining healthy blood glucose levels? [38:30]Food combining: how much does it matter if you eat starches before proteins (or vice versa)? [41:38]Does the rate of consumption/chewing make any difference to the data? Will eating an apple affect you differently than drinking a smoothie or juice made with that same apple? [45:41]What supplements might someone take to positively affect their blood glucose levels? [51:03]Josh explains how his company, Levels, aims to help us maximize our metabolic fitness with minimum invasiveness. [54:01]How does the program work, and what kind of budget is Level geared toward? [56:43]The ways in which Level can pinpoint the causes, effects, and solutions when your numbers fluctuate unexpectedly. [1:01:22]What we might expect Level to look like in five years. [1:02:28]How are glucose and insulin involved in unwanted weight gain? [1:03:55]What can you do if you're interested in giving Level a whirl? (Go to levels.link/krose to skip the waitlist of 28,000+ and join the early access program.) [1:08:19]A further appeal to people who think monitoring blood glucose is just something for diabetics to worry about. [1:09:41]How does fasting affect blood glucose?

Henry Shukman (Ryu’un-ken) is an Associate Zen Master of the Sanbo Zen lineage, based in Kamakura, Japan, and he teaches at the Mountain Cloud Zen Center in Santa Fe, NM. He has trained primarily with Joan Rieck Roshi, Zen teacher John Gaynor, Ruben Habito Roshi, and now continues his training under the guidance of Yamada Ryoun Roshi, current abbot of Sanbo Zen. Henry is dedicated to what he sees as core Zen training — clarifying our essential nature to our own satisfaction, and thereby finding true peace of mind, and then living that essential nature in every moment of daily life, in freedom, love, and deep responsiveness.Henry is a writer and poet of British-Jewish origin, who has published eight books to date, of fiction, poetry, and nonfiction. He writes regularly for Tricycle, The New York Times, and other publications, and his most recent book is One Blade of Grass: Finding the Old Road of the Heart, a Zen Memoir.SHOW NOTESHow we each began the journey toward practicing meditation. [01:30]Henry suffered from extreme eczema for decades. Here's how meditation was instrumental in relieving his condition. [04:38]The pros and cons of Transcendental Meditation (TM) as we understood them, and why we each chose to move on. [09:09]An awakening epiphany Henry experienced around the time he wrote his first book -- before he discovered meditation. [11:00]One problem with epiphanies: they don't come with a user's manual. [17:53]Further musings (and concerns) about TM. [22:22]Henry shares an overview of Zen and how he became involved with it. [25:49]What is a koan? [28:41]Zen vs. psychedelics. [29:48]Can enlightenment be explained by existing language, or does it need to be experienced? [34:25]The "emptiness" of Buddhism, the relief of lightening psychic burdens, and some thoughts on the way our senses process reality. [36:09]Zen is not always about enlightenment, but applying the practice to the practical aspects of our lives. [43:10]What does Henry's Zen practice look like, and how does someone get involved? [45:21]What are the benefits of having a guide when you're learning to meditate? Does Henry consider it necessary for everybody? [47:42]A koan awakening. [52:23]The importance of recognizing life's transformational passages as we encounter them, as well as the beauty of valuing the ordinary. [54:50]How does Henry go from appreciating life's mundane moments to coping with 2020's more sensational aspects like politics and COVID-19? [58:50]Feeling powerless to engage in the political process? Take a lesson from the bodhisattvas and help work toward good without getting wrapped up in potential outcomes. [1:06:04]A deeper dive into koans and how we can work with them. [1:08:13]A computer science guy's approach to understanding koans. [1:12:52]Henry takes us through a few particularly famous koans. [1:16:07]Are koans ever meant to shock a student into enlightenment? [1:20:59]What can we expect from Henry's latest book, One Blade of Grass: Finding the Old Road of the Heart, a Zen Memoir? [1:24:48]Parting thoughts and ways to get in touch with Henry. [1:27:07] This is a public episode.

Kelly McGonigal (@kellymcgonigal) is a health psychologist and lecturer at Stanford University who specializes in understanding the mind-body connection. As a pioneer in the field of "science-help," her mission is to translate insights from psychology and neuroscience into practical strategies that support personal well-being and strengthen communities.SHOW NOTESI'm rebooting the Foundation podcast (past guests include Elon Musk, Jack Dorsey, Evan Williams)! More information here: foundationpodcast.info. [00:03]Who is Kelly McGonigal, how has she helped me, and how will her message here help you? [01:16]What is Nia, and what does it aim to convey through music and movement? [02:43]How did Kelly get into using movement as a way to facilitate mental well-being, and what compelled her to delve into the science behind it that she shares in The Joy of Movement? [05:25]Two revelations about the direct connection between muscle movement and mental health that blew Kelly's mind when she started digging into this research. [07:05]What's the anthropological take on why we experience a high after exercise (particularly running)? [11:03]What does Kelly recommend as the minimum effective dose of exercise for us to really enjoy its mental benefits? Should it be enough to scare up a heartbeat that replicates fear and the courage by which it can be overcome? [14:40]Good news regarding the minimum dose if all you want to do is feel better. [18:32]The science we have so far suggests these two reasons we feel better with even a tiny dose of physical activity. [19:28]What have scientists discovered by trying to take the joy out of movement? [22:06]Pairing movement with nature (e.g., forest bathing). [24:20]Pairing movement with music. [25:27]How Kelly learned to love indoor cycling (after hating it at first). [26:04]Pairing movement with teamwork/competition. [26:34]Pairing movement with animal companionship. [26:59]Can't dance.

[31:21]Fighting Parkinson's disease with dance at Juilliard. [33:45]How depression and grief work to demobilize and demotivate us by mechanisms eerily similar to Parkinson's disease. [38:19]What's your emotional temperature? Understanding the factors that contribute to your core affect. [39:16]Kelly's take on the modern need for constant stimulation via devices and how it relates to the brain's default state in contrast to different methods like meditation. [42:27]Outside of movement, what other ingredients does Kelly find important for holistic mental self-care? [46:21]What does Kelly hope are the chief takeaways people will remember after reading The Joy of Movement? [48:39]As someone who's spent the majority of her life moving, did Kelly discover and experiment with any movement forms that were new to her during the course of doing research for The Joy of Movement? How does she feel about exercise that takes place outside of her comfort zone? [52:03]Kelly gives us a brief history of the science behind her earlier work,, and how research has changed what we know about stress in recent years.A brief history of the science of stress, why our initial impression of it as a purely negative force has been so hard to shake in spite of being disproven by decades of research, and what Kelly did to set the record straight by writing The Upside of Stress. [53:40]Kelly's thoughts on how I've been coping with stress for the past six months or so, and why society's need to blame every bad thing that happens to us on "stress" hurts more than it helps. [59:25]As a psychiatrist, what does Kelly think of psychedelics as a potential course of treatment? [1:03:05]Parting thoughts, and how to best connect with Kelly. [1:07:18] This is a public episode.
