Essentials: Using Science to Optimize Sleep, Learning & Metabolism

In this Huberman Lab Essentials episode, I answer your most
frequently asked questions about science-backed tools for improving
alertness, enhancing learning, and achieving quality sleep. I also
discuss the optimal times for exercising and eating, how to
properly time light exposure, as well as methods for strategically
adjusting your body temperature to influence your nervous system.
Huberman Lab Essentials are short episodes (approximately 30
minutes) focused on essential science and protocol takeaways from
past Huberman Lab episodes. Essentials will be released every
Thursday, and our full-length episodes will still be released every
Monday. Read the full show notes for this episode at
