[@user-gr8on2pc5y]

Many studies claim benefits from various supplements or products, but often lack crucial context around the true magnitude and practical significance of those benefits. When interpreting research, it's important to consider: 1) The amount of change from baseline - As you mentioned, if a supplement only improves cognition by 3% on average, that may not actually have any meaningful impact on a person's day-to-day functioning. 2) The statistical significance vs clinical significance - A finding may be statistically significant, meaning it's unlikely due to chance. But that doesn't mean it's clinically significant enough to matter in the real world. 3) Whether the changes are noticeable to the user - If a supplement improves a test score by 3% on average, can users actually perceive or notice that small benefit in their daily lives? Probably not. 4) The potential for placebo effect - Many supplement studies lack a placebo control, so some of the reported benefits may actually come from placebo responses rather than the supplement itself. 5) Consistency across studies - Benefits reported in one small study may not replicate in larger, higher quality studies. Consistent evidence across multiple trials increases confidence. So in summary, you're right that simply reporting a supplement "improves cognition" is inadequate - we need more details on the consistency, magnitude and noticeable-ness of those benefits to determine if they are actually meaningful or worthwhile. Unfortunately many studies lack that important context, so it's crucial to consider multiple factors and look at the big picture of the available evidence before deciding if a supplement is worth trying. Hope this overview helps explain the important considerations when evaluating research on supplements! Let me know if you have any other questions.

To be very honest if you listened to this from start to finish it’s easy to understand the message is. Chael is right about Huberman. He speaks about the best possible result in the research and presents it like it’s possible for the general public. Hence he’s the Aikido teacher that speaks about how you can beat anyone with the perfect technique, but never mentions that you can never do the perfect technique in an actual fight.

[@YazanAbdullahMD]

What research? There’s not a single study showing that cold showers quadruple T levels.

[@cat-le1hf]

He repeats constantly that there is no perfect routine but you can do several things to improve your life at least somewhat. He always prefaces statements with "your mileage may vary" and "this protocol may noy be right for you". He tells you the science and lets you decide if it's worth it to apply to your life. People are so addicted to being told what to do that they're flummoxed when offered tools instead of a prescription.

Love this - Hubberman sent me flags when he said his sauna was 260° F

[@indokenmore]

WARNING: long comment, but I’m genuinely interested in this. I started following Chael and Huberman in the same year during the pandemic. Love both your content. On one hand I’ve also thought the amount of supplements huberman takes (just to get a good night’s sleep for example-something he calls his “sleep stack”) is a little weird. On the other hand, i think it’s pretty reasonable that an elite college wrestler or pro MMA fighter would have 2-4 times the testosterone levels of the average guy on the street. Uncle Chael, just this past week, you said yourself that even an elite athlete should be training only 3 hours a day, even with a 30 minute drive to the gym. I think Huberman is saying that the average guy with average testosterone, who never experiences a flight or fight moment on a daily basis can massively increase testosterone if he starts commiting several hours per week training and fasting like is life depends on it, while throwing in some regular sauna. Of course an elite athlete isn’t going to spike their testosterone by doing the same things they’ve already been doing to get it high in the first place. Or am I missing something, and I might be!

You’re missing the grift…. Go to his podcast page. He’s selling more than chael. Mostly exotic supplements so you figure it out how a neuro scientist is hocking pills…. Cmon think Yes he’s smooth but cmon

[@taylor_o]

Im not sure what huberman actually said, but if he is seriously suggesting that you will 4x your test in any way over any sustained period, its a joke. Average guy has like 300-800 ng/dl, quadrupling that would take injecting a decent amount of test. Now maybe he said it 4xed for a brief window and wasnt talking about the exact same figure as chael is thinking about, etc. in which case i have no idea if its true or not. But i think broadly chael is correct, these guys like huberman, attia, and other life/bio/longevity/whatever hackers are massive noise to little signal, to the point i do believe its dishonest... Well, who knows, they may be too lost in the sauce.

I didn't watch Huberman's video about these claims about increasing testosterone and growth hormone but, I think he meant that this increase can be observed right after the sauna (for example) and for a short period of time. In that case, it could be possible, even though these effects probably will not translate into a significant increase in muscle growth. Chael has good points though :D

True story: when I was in Grade 11 I got into an argument with another student who was a known black belt in karate; long story short it got physical and he started flashing all these moves, I got scared, lunged forward, and punched him right in the face. He went down and that was the end. In 1993 I did what Uncle Chael did and rented all the videos (and I assumed the karate guys would kick ass - feeling I got lucky). The rest is history. Point: we thought back in the day that these people were killers so don't screw with them; turns out a scared kid could knock them out with one punch.

[@levone8958]

There was a guy in my class who claimed he is a 4th degree or 5th degree black belt in something, I forgot what. But he looked very unathletic and I doubted if he can really fight. I never really fought him or anything, but once I was standing and his girlfriend was sitting down in front of me, she looked up at me with her mouth open, smiled, and said "how many push ups can you do?" while smiling. This 4th degree killer was standing a couple meters away and didn't do anything. I would never start a fight because i'm the last person to try to burst someone's bubble to prove something, but I never took those belts and karate uniforms too seriously. And when his girlfriend tried to flirt with me while he is in the same room, it was an absolutely lol situation for me.

[@Dr.P.I.]

As a research scientist specialising in lifestyle, exercise, sleep etc. having worked with some of the worlds most prominent scientists (typically in their 60s or 70s!!). Prof Huberman started with fantastic content and strictly stayed in the academic/neuro lane. Then Prof H mentioned his dad worked at Stanford. And i noticed, whilst holding a high position, he isn’t a world renowned expert in “X” area (typically a criterion for professorship). I was confused when he started the podcast rounds and strayed outside his speciality. Ethically we scientists must be aware that we are in a position of authority meaning the statements we make are likely to be accepted by people unquestionably. So the title of Professor comes with great responsibility. His conversations do sometimes conflate consensus evidence with low quality evidence and anecdotal evidence. When professors job is to “Profess” complex concepts in a way understandably to all. In the UK takes around 15 years of consistently outstanding work (from starting your degree age 20) to obtain the title of Professor. Then Profs often branch out into business to create extra income. But they have to justify their tenure. must have a research group still bringing in funding to the University by producing research. Since Professor is a title you have for life, even if it’s through business or more lucrative means in the UK you have an obligation to contribute to human knowledge (that’s all science is). Since we produce the evidence doctors eventually use in practice. Maybe Stanford have the money and status to let Profs pursue a social media presence. Or see it as good marketing. Because that’s a lot of time being taken up with podcast interviews which don’t benefit science and by definition are ‘entertainment’ unlike his own channel when he started on KZbin.

The main conundrum for me is elite wrestlers (athletes) don't represent the general masses.

This honestly comes across as an over-reaction. He's not my favourite podcaster, and I sometimes think that he speaks too confidently , but A. Huberman simply shares what he knows. He doesn't pretend that he's always right, nor does he expect that others agree with him. He doesn't denigrate or otherwise attack those with other views. His knowledge seems to be focused on what can be characterized in lab studies, and I've seen him invitee interviewees to fill the gap in his knowledge using their applied experiences in their fields of practice. I can't say much more about this slight because it isn't clear what it is. It would be helpful to describe what the disagreement is and why it is so offensive. It sounds like a friend got disagreed with but didn't voice his alternative view. Maybe the issue is one of developing the ability to voice differing experiences and opinions without antagonism.

We all change opinions sometime about things . The point of teaching or sharing or expressing ideas of knowlege that you aquire is not ment to look after absolute truth, at all. Absolute truth eventualy will change in some point too. So, to me, it is just about enjoying the fact than you can express your ideas and share it with other people.

Every source on gh levels and fasting that I could find where not 100% decisive in my opinion. Usually sources quote 3 major studies, JCEM in 1988, IJE in 2018, and JAP in 2013. The 1988 study had a sample size of 6, was 40 years ago, and used outdated protocols to measure gh levels so I'm inclined not to believe that one. The 2018 one was done using obese women, whose body composition and hormones are not similar to normal people. Maybe the best study was the one done in 2013, however it only used a sample size of 10 men and never stated how long gh levels where elevated for. As far as test levels go, there where two. The same 1988 study and a study done in 2013 for the PLoS journal. The 2013 one was done using obese men. Obviously, more research is needed for us to definitely say what happens during or after fasting. That is most likely why people who quote these studies say fasting can "*potentially*" lead to such benefits.

[@jacobbirtwhistle543]

@@bigsteppa298 Interesting. I think most people who advocate fasting exaggerate. The people I’ve heard who have no skin in the game say it raises GH and test, but not enough to matter. They said fasting is great for health benefits, but don’t do it for hormone production

PhD is not a guarantee of being right. The whole point of peer review is because everyone is human and suffer from cognitive bias. I listened to a guy with a PhD on a BBC radio show talking about how he had been running an experiment with mice for 2 years where he would surgically shorten the size of the mice tails, breed them, and repeat to see how long it would take for the mice to be born with shorter tails. The presenter asked "How long do you expect this to take? After all, Jewish men have been circumcising for thousands of years and they are yet to be born circumcised." You could hear a pin drop as this poor PhD just realised he had been wasting a couple of years. The point is...mistakes are human at every level. Defending your mistake in the face of evidence is stupid.

Chael, do a piece on the video that surfaced of Khamzat Chimaev driving for Uber. Do UFC fighters, especially stars like Khamzat, really have to do work like that? I'd understand a preliminary fighter having to do that, but seeing a big-name guy driving for Uber was surprising to me. I thought Dana would pay his stars enough to be able to support themselves strictly through their UFC earnings.

I used to haul horses across the country and i learned by doing that if you're tired driving at night to turn on a light... my sun visor had a good light perfect to get in your eyes, wakes you up. I'm sure there's science behind it but... it works. Comfy warm seat, dark environment , perfect for sleeping...darkness gets you. I'd leave it on for however long, the visor was perfectly situated to get direct light. Saved my ass from the late night nods. Stopping and taking a 10 minute walk helps too. Just thought i'd share.

[@USC5440]

As is often the case with Chael, clearly didn’t listen to Huberman at all (at least in the case of his MPMD vs Andrew Tate, he admitted as much). You can give Chael partial credit if you want to for the fact that the protocol that showed this isn’t one most people will follow. You have to do repeat sauna 20 in 5 out, repeated like 3 times, which is going to take 75 minutes, and the testosterone levels will spike, but not really sustain. Huberman says at that time, and other guests he’s had (Andy Galpin, Layne Norton) confirmed, that returns on this will diminish if repeated, and actual physiological effects (ie, results in muscle gain) will likely be minimal if apparent at all. The fasting is intermittent fasting (because he’s never talked about prolonged fasts) and if I remember correctly (which I might not) was that the gains in testosterone were fairly minimal. Finally, Huberman has talked about how extreme training (ie the training of basically every wrestler), will lower testosterone (acutely) and operating at extreme caloric deficits (again every in season wrestler) can lower your testosterone production. Also, wrestlers are using the sauna to dehydrate, and all of the benefits are about acutely stressing the system and then recovering to “normal” which would involve rehydrating. So no, wrestlers are not following these protocols. Protocols, that again, were never claimed to be equivalent to the use of TRT or just straight up super physiological steroid use in terms of muscle growth. I will say, Huberman doesn’t always contextualize every finding he talks about perfectly, (he does contextualize a lot, but to do so any more than he does, would make him unlistenable). Also, hilarious how late Chael is to game in commenting on any of this. The sauna episode has to be at least a year old. Same for fasting. And comparing Huberman with the Liver King? GTFOH

Chael "if you eat a raw egg you're a weirdo" Sonnen

[@conceptualhandle]

I believe that's totally true, and there is no way and no need to raise testosterone and no need to double it for a healthy human. Besides the amount of testosterone in your bloodstream which is individual, you have also your individual level of sensitivity to the hormone, and that's the exact reason why the level is so different among human beings. And nothing in the world except for injection or severe disease would ever double it even from the lowest range. And the claim that you really can benefit in everyday life from such increase is totally insane. While it might benefit you in professional sport, but that's not a health competition, that's about glory, money and winning the other guy who would put his own health on the scales.
