Systematically dismantling Andrew Huberman's sauna health claims


Listen Later

In this episode, I systematically dismantle Huberman's sauna health claims that he makes on the Lex Fridman podcast. In particular, I show that he overstates the strength of the epidemiological evidence and show that nobody has really been able to address the criticisms made of it in the scientific literature. I question whether heat shock proteins really confer a longevity phenotype. In fact, I show that they might actually undermine longevity. I then question the relationship between dynorphin and heat shock proteins and whether what has been claimed has ever been shown. I then provide several pieces of evidence that suggest that animals living in higher temperatures actually have reduced lifespan. On every relevant point, I cannot see how Huberman makes the claims that he does--even as he makes them with an absolute confidence.===Like, comment, subscribe.For more, find me at:PODCAST The Kevin Bass ShowYOUTUBE https://www.youtube.com/user/kbassphiladelphiaWEBSITE http://thedietwars.comTWITTER https://twitter.com/kevinnbass/https://twitter.com/healthmisinfo/INSTAGRAM https://instagram.com/kevinnbass/TIKTOK https://tiktok.com/@kevinnbassAnd above all, please donate to support what I do:PATREON https://patreon.com/kevinnbass/DONATE https://thedietwars.com/support-me/
