Brain Fit with Robert Love

Do you want to optimize your health and boost your brain function? It all starts with your circadian rhythm! In today’s episode, I’m talking with Dr. Satchin Panda, a professor at the Salk Institute in La Jolla, California, and a leading expert on circadian biology, about how understanding and optimizing your body’s internal clock can transform your health. We dive into the science of how sleep, light exposure, and even the timing of your meals can significantly enhance your brain health, immune function, and overall well-being. Dr. Panda reveals how small changes like adjusting when you eat or when you get sunlight can have profound effects on reducing the risk of chronic diseases like Alzheimer’s and dementia.If you're ready to take control of your health by syncing up with your circadian rhythm, this episode is for you!Tune in to learn actionable tips that will help you sleep better, think smarter, and feel more energized every day!Note: Salk Institute for Biological Studies - Life-changing discoveries depend on both federal funding and private philanthropy.

If you think you understand why people do what they do, you’re probably wrong. In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Robert Sapolsky, a legendary neuroscientist, primatologist, and bestselling author. We explore one of the most controversial questions in science: Do we truly possess free will? Dr. Sapolsky breaks down decades of research on the brain, stress, and behavior to reveal how much of who we are is determined by biology and environment.We discuss why humans evolved to lie, what makes aggression unique to our species, and why the hippocampus, the brain’s memory center, is a key hub for stress and aging. Dr. Sapolsky also explains how neurogenesis (the birth of new brain cells) actually happens, and why lifestyle factors like exercise, sleep, and diet directly affect it.You’ll hear his take on why judgment and blame make little sense once you understand the brain, and how embracing this truth can make us more empathetic and less punitive as a society. This is a profound, mind-expanding conversation that redefines what it means to be human and how understanding our biology can make us better individuals.Podcast Sponsors:-Brain Power Clinics: www.BrainPowerClinics.com - https://brainpowerclinics.com/-Roar Lion's Mane: https://roarlionsmane.net/“You've got to be really careful before you judge someone especially harshly, because you almost certainly don't know how they wound up being the person they are.” ~ Dr. Robert SapolskyIn this Episode:- The story of human aggression- Understanding what happens in the brain during stress - Do we really have free will?- Why compassion matters more than judgment- The hippocampus, stress, and memory- Neurogenesis: how we grow new brain cells- The pioneers of brain science who were ignored- Brain injury, behavior, and criminal justice reform- How to raise healthy, resilient childrenResource-Determined: A Science of Life without Free Will by Dr. Robert Sapolsky - https://www.amazon.com/dp/0525560971Connect with Dr. Robert Sapolsky:🌐Website - https://profiles.stanford.edu/robert-sapolsky📷 Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/robert.sapolsky/Connect with Robert Love:🌐Website - https://roarlionsmane.net/📷 Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/robertwblove/TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/discover/robert-love-lions-mane▶️YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@RobertWBLoveDisclaimer: This podcast is intended for informational purposes only and should not be considered medical advice.

Can ancient divers and evolutionary biology reveal the secret to aging strong and staying sharp for life? In this fascinating episode, I interview evolutionary biologist Dr. Melissa Ilardo to explore what we can learn from one of the world’s most extraordinary populations–Korea’s Haenyeo (female divers), many in their 70s and 80s, who dive daily in freezing ocean water without oxygen tanks.Dr. Ilardo explains how these women maintain exceptional cardiovascular and brain health into late age, thanks to lifelong breath-hold diving, cold exposure, and constant physical activity. The conversation explores how voluntary discomfort, such as cold exposure, helps build resilience and strengthen the nervous system.Dr. Ilardo also dives into the grandmother hypothesis, the idea that the presence of healthy, active grandmothers helps extend human lifespan by improving survival and success in subsequent generations. She highlights how social connection, purpose, and environmental stressors shape gene expression and promote healthy aging.Tune in and be inspired by practical longevity lessons rooted in human evolution to keep the brain and body young.Podcast Sponsors:-NeuroPlus Brain and Focus Formula -https://drlovelionsmane.com/neuro-plus-official-Dr. Love's Magnesium - Magnesleep: https://mybodysolved.com/cmd/?ad=187&from=podcast-Danger Coffee by Dave Asprey - https://dangercoffee.com/ - Promo Code: LOVE10 -Brain Power Clinics: www.BrainPowerClinics.com -  https://brainpowerclinics.com/“Women who live a long time can drive the evolution of their population towards a longer lifespan.” ~ Dr. Melissa IlardoIn this Episode:- Introduction to Dr. Melissa Ilardo & her research on longevity- The Haenyeo divers: women in their 70s and 80s diving daily- Genetic adaptations in diving populations- Breath-holding & its effects on the brain and cardiovascular system- Cold exposure & resilience: how environmental stress builds longevity- The Grandmother Hypothesis- Practical takeaways for living longer and sharperConnect with Dr. Melissa Ilardo:📷 Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/superhumanscilab/Connect with Robert Love:🌐Website - https://roarlionsmane.net/📷 Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/robertwblove/TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/discover/robert-love-lions-mane▶️YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@RobertWBLoveDisclaimer: This podcast is intended for informational purposes only and should not be considered medical advice.
