ZOE Science & Nutrition · How 'boosting' your immune system increases inflammation and 4 ways to support balance instead | Dr Giulia Enders · 7 May 2026 podcast

If we just try to stuff it into this, you know, four-corner product of modern life, then it won't work very well.

And we already see the indicators for that everywhere, sleep problems included.

But if we understand it better and move along with it more smartly, then we'll find new ways, then we find good ways, and then we'll make also modern and innovative things happen and work for us and not the opposite, us working for them.

And Julia, if I go back to sleep, you're talking about how important it is for my immune system and creating these immune cells.

Do naps count?

Yes, but if you have a hard time sleeping during the night, then it's sometimes advisable to cut out the naps so that you build up more sleep pressure, as they say, and then you have an easier time really being asleep during the night.

But if you've had a horrible sleep and you're carrying it through the day, then a short nap can be a really good idea.

And that is, for example, one thing that I think

We should make the world adjust more to the body and not the other way around.

For example, young parents, when they go to work, but they've really had a horrible night, if it's possible to have a room where they could just lay down for 15 minutes and not be judged for it, then the rest of the day they would be able to do much better work, be much more, you know, bringing things forward, being effective, and then just pretending they're a machine and trying to hide their imperfectness.

You know, work with that you're human and that actually when you understand yourself, you can get a lot out of that.

As long as it's not ruining my ability to sleep at night, napping can be good.

Yeah.

And we see that there's also this built-in biological clock, as you can say, where it has proteins that fall apart twice a day.

So one is, of course, when we go to sleep, but then the other one is especially at that nap or siesta time in Southern Europe.

So two times a day, there's this offered platform to us where we could actually fall asleep.

And if there's enough reasons to do so, then we will.

Julia, what do you do to make sure you get enough good quality sleep?

I realize that I really have to tone it down in the evenings.

I don't do late, exciting gatherings if it's not my birthday or anything.
