There is no better bio hack than a good night's sleep.

It prevents burnout, helps you make better decisions, improves your memory,

consolidates memory. I mean, there's a lot of science behind sleep,

and I talked about this before, but you listen to a guy like Michael Walker on the Joe Roggen podcast or read his book while we sleep.

He is incredibly dialed in on the science of sleep.

And one of the things we have when we sleep is memory consolidation.

That means when we learn something new, our

brain will file that out of the short-term RAM random access memory into our

long-term memory where we can actually embody and engrain this into our being. So we can actually have something long term.

We understand this new skill.

We understand this second language.

It comes to us as we need it in the future.

That all happens when we sleep. It's the most important thing we do for

cognitive function. It's the most important thing we do for cellular health in the brain. When we talk about

clearing out things like amyloid beta plaque, what leads to Alzheimer's

Parkinson's dementia. All these things happen. This cellular renewal and

cleaning out effect happens when we sleep. What else happens? Well, if we lose sleep we have a bump in a hormone called

Grellin that goes up. It's a fight or flight hormone it's also the hormone that makes us

hungry during the day. So if you've ever lost the night of sleep and you notice the next

day you were a bottomless well that couldn't be fed, that's the hormone Grellin. Grellin goes up, Lepton goes down,

Lepton is a hormone that makes us feel full and satiated.

So to say that sleep is important for total human optimization, that is a fucking
