Ep. 69: Stress & Sleep (Longevity Series)

Do you know that your daily life is killing you? The stress you feel in your mind changes the chemistry in your body. This will slowly turn your health in the wrong direction. But it doesn't have to be that way. We have control over how our body reacts to daily stresses.

 

Add to this is the crappy sleep that most people get. Poor sleep will age you more quickly and give you the blood values of a pre-diabetic. And for you guys, be aware that poor sleep will lower your testosterone production to that of an 80-year-old.

 

In this episode, we delve deep into the effects of stress and sleep on your health and longevity. By decreasing your stress and increasing the amount of sleep you get you will directly improve the markers of health. 

 

By being conscious of the way you manage stress and sleep will be one of the simplest hacks you can do to make your body work better. Give a listen and start acting on it today.
