In this episode, Jacob discusses the concept of hormesis, which describes the bell curve of benefit and cost of a stimulus. He provides examples, such as exercise, food, and time with loved ones, and discusses the benefits and dangers of ice baths, saunas, and exercise. He also explains how your body responds to these stimuli, the importance of finding the optimal exposure to benefit from them, and how hormetic responses can result in increased dopamine levels.
