Dr. Andrew Hill holds a Ph.D. in Cognitive Neuroscience from UCLA’s Department of Psychology and has been practicing neurofeedback since 2003. The founder of Peak Brain Institute, he also hosts his own podcast called Head First with Dr. Hill. He continues to expand his knowledge of the brain through various research methodologies and teaches courses at UCLA to impart that knowledge to future generations.

We jump right into a discussion about the debatable benefits of sleep tracking, and it just keeps getting better from there. From neurofeedback and the brain irregularities it can treat, to the real danger of screentime, to ideal work environments, Dr. Andrew brings his A-game to this episode. He tackles some common misconceptions, delivers actionable advice, and introduces a lot of new concepts to consider in an approachable, understandable way. I say this every week, but only because it’s true: this is an episode you don’t want to miss!

Are you flushing money down the toilet with less than optimal supplements? With most traditional supplements, the amount that survives digestion and general acidity in the gut is very low. That is why Dr. Chris Shade developed the world’s most advanced phospholipid delivery systems. Today, I wanted to tell you about Quicksilver Scientific’s PushCatch LiverDetox. Liver detoxification is essential for proper health, but improperly-designed protocols result in uncomfortable toxin redistribution—not elimination. The PushCatch LiverDetox is an innovative approach to detox, utilizing a two-part cleansing protocol designed to safely eliminate toxins without reabsorption in the body, and it really works!

Seed

After my recent podcast with Seed co-founder, Ara Katz, I began to dig a little deeper into the traditional "probiotic" industry—only to be quite disappointed with the reality of the effectiveness of almost all probiotic products on the market. Seed, on the other hand, has 23 strain-specific clinical studies behind it that demonstrate its effectiveness. Their innovative 2-in-1 capsule also nests the probiotics inside a prebiotic (sourced from Indian pomegranate and organic wild-harvested Scandinavian chaga and pine bark) capsule for additional protection, ensuring the probiotics actually get where they need to be inside of you—your gut.
