    2. How do you guys handle the heat when you're new to sauna?
    3. Sauna 4 to 7 times a week is tied to 40% lower all-cause mortality. Nobody actually knows the mechanism. Also dug into traditional vs infrared vs hot tub and the answer surprised me.

    1. I ran ~970 of Huberman's health claims through the research to see which ones actually hold up. Some of the results surprised me.
    2. I kept seeing the claim that “no amount of alcohol is safe,” so I dug into the research
    3. A bacterial infection from cat scratches can cause brain fog, rage, insomnia, and foot pain for years. Nobody tests for it.
