What Humans, Animals & Plants Tell Us About Consciousness | Michael Pollan

Michael Pollan is a renowned author, journalist and professor at UC Berkeley. He is best known for his influential works on how humans and plants have shaped each other at the level of food, medicine, health, and culture.

In this episode we discuss consciousness—what it is and how the recognition between our self vs others contributes to— but also can impair, certain aspects of conscious experience.

We discuss plant medicines, the microbiome, caffeine, and how the unconscious dialogue between our body and brain impacts our thoughts and feelings.

Few if any humans alive, have such an incredibly rich perspective on the relationship between plants, animals, and humans and what it is to be human. Including human consciousness.

I learned it ton from this conversation with Michael and I am certain you will too.

Comment COMFORT and I’ll send you a direct message with a link to the episode.

FEED YOUR MICROBIOME FIBER AND LOW SUGAR FERMENTED FOODS TO PROMOTE GUT (& BRAIN)
HEATH •

My guest on the Huberman lab podcast app now is Dr. Chris Thompson MD from Harvard Med. He is a world expert on gut health. And how it relates to the health of other organs.

this clip is from a segment where we are discussing the fact that we all have trillions of microbacteria living in our gut. These are beneficial bacteria that create essential chemicals, including helping to make serotonin, regulate our immune system, promote brain health and much more.

They need to eat. And fiber and low sugar fermented foods are what allow them to thrive. keep in mind that people vary in their tolerance of specific fibrous foods so you have to find which ones work for you.

It’s remarkable how powerful this whole system is over the general health of our brain and body. I personally can attest to how much better I feel when I regularly eat low sugar fermented foods. For me that’s sauerkraut, kvass etc. But you should find which ones you like best.

Best Tools for Gut Health & Weight Loss | Dr. Chris Thompson

Dr. Chris Thompson, MD, is a Professor of Medicine at Harvard Medical School, and a world-renowned expert on gastroenterology, metabolism, nutrition, and obesity medicine.

In this episode of the Huberman Lab podcast he explains how your GI tract regulates hunger, fullness, and blood sugar, as well as the role of the gut microbiome in metabolic health and weight loss.

We also discuss common GI tract issues and which particular tests or interventions are actually useful.

Given that gut health is vital to all the organs of the body, overall health and longevity, our discussion ought to be of interest and practical value to everyone, including, of course, those struggling with gut health or weight loss challenges.

THE AGITATION FROM ERRORS THAT COMES ABOUT FROM YOUR GENUINE ATTEMPTS TO LEARN OR DO SOMETHING ARE WHAT OPEN UP NEUROPLASTICITY & LEARNING •

Excerpt from Joe Rogan The Joe Rogan Experience podcast out now, where we discussed how (and why, at a neurobiological level) doing hard things makes doing other hard things feel easier, and leads to deeper happiness in a sense of peace.

We also discussed how some degree of frustration from making errors while trying to learn is a necessary component of stable learning. Most people back away from that agitation. But it literally reflects the release of neuromodulators that tell your brain connection connections to change.

The discussion also covered mental health from different perspectives, why it took me eight years and four complete rewrites before finally releasing my book Protocols, and much more.

Thank you, Joe for hosting me and for your questions and the discussion, and support all these years. Also, thank you Young Jamie and team for all you do to make the JRE what it is. Much gratitude.

Comment HAPPY & I’ll DM you a link to the full episode:
The Art of True Happiness with Dr. Arthur Brooks

Dr. Arthur Brooks, PhD, professor at Vanderbilt University and senior fellow at Harvard Business School, is an expert on the science of happiness.

On the Huberman Lab podcast out now, he shares the three “macronutrients” of true happiness and tools for you to understand what specifically is in the way of you accessing more happiness and a sense of purpose.

Dr. Brooks’ work goes beyond stories and observations by offering potent self-discovery tools for you to identify what truly matters most to you, and how to shape your life around those things.

And doing so, experience more joy and fulfillment.

This conversation with Arthur is of my favorite ever on the Huberman Lab podcast. Arthur offers the questions you should ask yourself and ways to identify and defeat the beliefs you hold that limit your true happiness and positive impact on the world. Incredible (thanks to him!).

please put any questions you have below, and again if you comment HAPPY I’ll DM you a link to the episode.

And as always, thank you for your interest in science!
