How Sleep Rewires Your Brain, Balances Your Hormones & Extends Your Life | Dr. Matthew Walker

We all know sleep is important, but most of us don’t realize just
how much it shapes our health—from metabolism and heart function to
emotional well-being and even social connections. In this episode
of The Dr. Hyman Show, I sit down with world-renowned sleep expert
Matthew Walker, PhD, to uncover the science behind why sleep is one
of the most powerful (and overlooked) tools for longevity. In this
fascinating conversation, we discuss: Why Dr. Walker sees sleep as
the foundation of good health and how it enhances the benefits of
diet and exercise. The dramatic effects of even mild sleep
deprivation on cognitive function and emotional health. How poor
sleep can disrupt blood sugar regulation and increase the risk of
chronic disease. The science behind deep sleep and its role in
memory, learning, and brain detoxification. Simple, science-backed
strategies to improve your sleep quality starting tonight. If
you’ve ever struggled with sleep—or just want to optimize your
health—this is an episode you won’t want to miss. View Show Notes
