We’re continuing our discussion into the intricate relationship between sleep, brain health, and inflammation with Dr. Parsley in this second of two parts. We discuss how sleep deprivation can lead to brain inflammation, along with the surprising effects of everyday activities on cognitive wellbeing. We’ll also reveal some experiences with microdosing psychedelics for their potential neuroprotective benefits, and explain the role of peptides and supplements in enhancing sleep quality. Our chat wraps up with cognitive therapy techniques to combat insomnia.
In this episode:

- How blast waves create shearing effects in the brain, leading to cognitive health issues.
- Why psychedelics like psilocybin may aid in mitochondrial vitality and neuron physiology.
- How microdosing substances could subtly enhance neurotropic factors and reduce amygdala tone.
- What role muscle health and mitochondrial function play during menopause.
- Why peptide therapies, such as Cerebrolysin, are likened to hyperbaric oxygen treatments for brain health.
- How peptides like Dihexa and BPC-157 contribute to inflammation reduction and neurotrophic growth.
- How melatonin production is influenced by factors such as blue light and alcohol consumption.
- Why GABA is crucial for slowing down brain activity and aiding sleep.
- How supplements like vitamin D3, magnesium, and L-theanine support natural sleep processes.
