In this Huberman Lab Essentials episode, my guest is Dr. Rhonda Patrick, PhD, a biomedical scientist and a leading health educator focused on nutrition, aging and general health.

We discuss four key micronutrients that influence cellular stress responses, inflammation, detoxification and longevity, and how to increase your intake of each through diet or supplementation. We also cover deliberate cold and heat exposure, along with exercise, and how these tools support metabolic, cardiovascular and cognitive health as we age.
