45. Your Brain Thinks Anxiety = Safety—Here’s How to Rewire It with Scott Sherr


Listen Later

Why does it feel like no matter how well we eat, exercise, or manage stress, something still isn’t quite right?

In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Scott Sherr, an expert in integrative medicine and hyperbaric oxygen therapy, to explore the missing links in modern health: oxygen, mitochondria, and nervous system regulation.

We dive into the science of energy production, the impact of chronic stress on the body, and why so many of us are operating in survival mode without even realizing it. Dr. Sherr also breaks down cutting-edge therapies like hyperbaric oxygen, methylene blue, and low-dose nicotine—how they work, who they’re for, and why they’re often misunderstood.

Whether you're struggling with brain fog, fatigue, or burnout, or simply want to optimize your health on a deeper level, this episode is packed with insights that could change the way you think about healing and longevity.

Dr. Scott Sherr is a board-certified internal medicine physician specializing in integrative health, hyperbaric oxygen therapy, and cutting-edge longevity treatments. He is the founder of OneBase Health, a company focused on optimizing health through advanced technologies, and a leader in the field of Health Optimization Medicine & Practice (HOMe/HOPe). His approach merges Western science with holistic strategies, helping people restore energy, resilience, and overall well-being.
