Along the lines of supplementation, what about NMN?
How does one incorporate that into a supplementation protocol should they choose to do that?
I'd like to take a quick break and acknowledge our sponsor, 8sleep.
Eight Sleep makes smart mattress covers with cooling, heating, and sleep tracking capacity.
One of the best ways to ensure a great night's sleep is to make sure that the temperature of your sleeping environment is correct.
And that's because in order to fall and stay deeply asleep, your body temperature actually has to drop by about one to three degrees.
And in order to wake up feeling refreshed and energized, your body temperature actually has to increase by about one to three degrees.
Eight Sleep automatically regulates the temperature of your bed throughout the night, according to your unique needs.
I've been sleeping on an Eight Sleep mattress cover for over four years now, and it has completely transformed and improved the quality of my sleep.
Eight Sleep has just launched their latest model, the Pod5, and the Pod5 has several new important features.
One of these new features is called Autopilot.
Autopilot is an AI engine that learns your sleep patterns to adjust the temperature of your sleeping environment across different sleep stages.
It also elevates your head if you're snoring and it makes other shifts to optimize your sleep.
The base on the Pod5 also has an integrated speaker that syncs to the Eight Sleep app and can play audio to support relaxation and recovery.
The audio catalog includes several NSDR, non-sleep deep rest scripts, that I worked on with Eight Sleep to record.
If you're not familiar, NSDR involves listening to an audio script that walks you through a deep body relaxation combined with some very simple breathing exercises.
And that combination has been shown in peer-reviewed studies to restore your mental and physical vigor.
And this is great because while we would all like to get to bed on time and get up after a perfect night's sleep, oftentimes we get to bed a little late or later.
Sometimes we have to get up early and charge into the day because we have our obligations.
NSDR can help offset some of the negative effects of slight sleep deprivation.
