Protecting your brain with Dr. Tommy Wood - Diet Doctor Podcast

[@timjohnson1199]

As a long term TBI survivor I guess I could go along with the diet/exercise thing. It's something we should all be doing anyway. After my last brain surgery my medical so-called professionals told me I would never walk or work again. Never. Luckily for me I'm stubborn and a skeptic. I played their little (expensive) games and took my health into my own hands. Exercised as much as I could and turned down the advice to get on government handouts. Got off their pharmaceuticals and, got employed. Got to where I was traveling internationally for my company. Presently work for a National Laboratory. I wonder how many people are stuck in care situations when they don't need to be.

[@debramoore1428]

Tim for the win! Stubborn, luv that.

[@rebeccacarl950]

Good for you!

[@elisafrye2115]

BRILLIANT, wide-ranging discussion between two truly bright and caring Scientist-Physicians! 🏆Worth EVERY SECOND it takes to watch/ listen…right to the very last word! ❤️

[@250txc]

Great interview here .. This shows exactly why a layman person needs to listen to multiple intelligent people on the ~same topics in order to get some cross-reference ideas on what is needed to be healthy and live a healthy life style .. THXS to all involved here.

[@karenohanlon4183]

I really enjoyed this Very interesting talk. I totally agree that we should be challenging ourselves right through life. Learning about history, keeping active. Taking on new skills. I think there are a lot of seniors who think luxury cruises with dawn to dusk eating is important to them. Personally being stuck on a floating hotel that calls at different ports would bore me silly. I am hoping to work as long as I am blessed to. I wish covid would disappear so face to face learning with like minded folks could be normal again. I am doing keto and trying to lose weight and keep healthy

Teach yourself a new language or a musical instrument as an adult. Phenomenal for brain development.

[@theodosioskantasmd7388]

An amazing, insightful podcast! Dr. Tommy Wood is clearly quick-thinking and an expert at this topic! Thoroughly enjoyed that!!! Some critically thought out questions from Dr. Scher as well! Keep it up this is turning into my fav medical podcast.

[@cellgrrl]

Oh, this was a fascinating interview! Please have Dr. Tommy Wood back soon! Thank you!

[@joecaz]

Two rock star brains talking about brains. Very interesting. I was on the edge of my seat through most of the interview.

[@ketomeethealth8431]

Go out and have a good time with people you like -- thats the best advice I can give

[@doreenbridges4262]

As a NICU nurse I have a real understanding of just how much of a struggle extremely premature babies have to survive. We are getting better at what we do but there is nothing that comes close to resembling mum.

[@patrickvanreeth7355]

I'm no medical professional, but remember hearing about neonatal twins, one was doing fine but the other was declining ... until a nurse decided to break protocol and put them together in one incubator. Shortly after, both siblings were doing equally well ! (can't provide a link since it was years ago, nor can I verify if it's even true, but in this context it might be food for thought :) )

[@raewise6345]

What an excellent conversation! So many pieces of new information were brought to this interview, thank you! And shout out for my maternal great grandparents from Oslo, Norway!♥️

[@aprilek6003]

I always love hearing Dr. Wood. Thanks Dr. Bret

[@juvenalbranco2411]

Seminário de excelência. Gratidão

[@AlexSchaap]

Interesting, especially the proven "mind over body" effects. I think one day science will come with the advise of grandmother. Believe in yourself. Do things in moderation, like eating, drinking, feasting etc. keep learning, stay curious, think positive, sleep wel and care for other people.... Thx for the informative video.

[@stars8924]

Yes 💙💙💙💙💙

[@Rositasparks]

Phenomenal, insightful and very helpful podcast today. Thank you 🙏

[@meggarstang6761]

Great conversation! I didn't know that you can achieve similar autophagy with aerobic exercise v. 3-day fast.

[@250txc]

Right! Ain't that cool!

[@cindidennis3258]

I didn't know that either and I'm thrilled!!

[@cindidennis3258]

@@250txc ??? Rogan? I was responding to the statement made by Dr. Tommy Wood on autophagy.. You apparently replied mistakenly, but no problem.

[@Chris-kr7gg]

One of the best interviews I've watched.

[@dacisky]

Really fasinateing discussion. I hope you have him back.

[@VoiceoverMomentum]

Very informative for me, a person who is insulin resistant, martial artist, with 1 APOE 4, and a head injury!! 😊

[@nota8386]

Great podcast...Its amazing how susceptible our brains/ emotions are to external messages and they can effect our health. Interesting in the context of the relentless fear pumped out by the media during this pandemic. Might be a link to why people with anxiety diagnosis are one of the highest groups to have worst outcomes from COVID. Also agree about sleep trackers, I know that they would have a negative impact on my sleep rather than positive. I no longer check the time if I wake in the night and find I sleep much better. Plus, note to self: eat more fish(north European ancestry:))

[@richardtoomey8628]

Great information. Best interview, learned alot

[@mannyradzky493]

Truly fabulous vid A huge thanks to both of you. Respect from Canada 🇨🇦

[@robertkraychik1884]

incredible information. thank you, gentlemen.

[@SamLesGo]

Love this masterpiece. Thank you so much for the great enlightenment.

[@Alec_Collins78]

The main reason to fast for many is to lower insulin and sugar. This isn't a criticism, just thinking aloud. What do we know about the effects of anaerobic exercise and autophagy?

[@forajc]

Diet Doctor is my go to source of information on all things health. Excellent job Diet Doctor and Dr Bret. I would like to see a deep dive on all things muscle mass. Do I need to look like Arnold S. to be healthy? I am being facetious with this question. However I am confused as to how to optimize muscle mass for age and gender. What exercises are required? Do I use dumbbell complexes? How much zone 2 cardio? Do I resistance train to failure? Should I be doing Olympic lifts? I have listened to your recent interviews with Phil Maffetone, Martin Gibala, Glenn Gaessar and Stuart Phillips all very knowledgeable on the effects of exercise, but I am still confused. Thanks again for this awesome resource. You guys help make the world better.

[@Alec_Collins78]

But that aerobic exercise'll make me hungry.

[@geraldsahd3413]

I’m glad to learn that one legged curl to press on a BOSU ball increase brain 🧠 size!

[@russellgallman7566]

Enjoyed the interview.

[@alancox236]

That was a great interview and so helpful.

[@LuciaAronica]

❤Love it! I often teach my students that exercise may be an easier more effective way to trigger autophagy. I look forward to seeing you, Dr. Bret Sher, and Dr. Tommy Wood, at the Metabolic Health Summit in May!

[@tammyb8742]

Dr. Scher's sweet smile of unbelief when Dr. Wood speaks about genetics vs beliefs 😂

[@carlor.s.4742]

Great guest in Dr. Wood. Getting such good information is like a narcotic for me! I want to know!!

[@applerunner1184]

A really interesting discussion - and more importantly - actionable!

[@250txc]

Actionable certainly applies to Mr. Wood words!

[@Seanonyoutube]

Excellent discussion.

[@shellstarz6]

Wow that was so interesting Thank you!

[@docl123]

Great presentation!

[@peterhamilton5946]

Looks like you've tweaked your lighting and background. Looks really good!

[@DB01-l4f]

Great stuff!

[@Nutri-syeon_art]

44:00 fto gene 55:58 30min of aerobic exercise increase autophasy level

[@ZombieJohn]

Wonderful stuff! ❤️

[@johnroszel8470]

After 3 days of Supplimenting DHA, "It all sort of evens out..." What's that mean? I'll eat my awesome fish...but I want to understand the conversation.

[@pattihy]

This is the second video I’ve seen saying that autophagy happens more than just the theory that autophagy only happens when fasting.

[@vas4739]

Real food is always best - however we all admit the organic foods are lacking as our top soil is poor in the USA. So supplementation becomes a must.

[@Appleblade]

44:45 ... really this shouldn't be surprising. Spend the next ten minutes thinking about your mother's death, or that time you ran over someone's dog. Our thoughts cause changes in our bodies. Also, take a drug, alcohol's my favorite, and see if affects your thinking. There is a two-way causal interaction between the mind and body (however that plays out in metaphysics... that they're both mental substances or both physical, or two different substances that interact in the pineal gland ;).

[@docl123]

Great believer in self fulfilling prophecy!

[@williamvinall8835]

I'm no doctor but imagine another reason muscle mass is important is because it's made up of protein. If you suffer a truamatic brain injury, I believe your brain would need lots of protein to heal and restructure itself. To get this protein the body might be breaking down muscle to aquire the nutrients needed for the brain.

[@zzcaptainmastiv2727]

the brain does not look like a muscle, therefore it does not grow like a muscle, you have to give it the nutritional substrate to grow, most people do not achieve or know how to do this. i think the brain requires much more than muscle mass markers. boy, you better NOT listen to this nonsense about meat vs mineral supplements. mineral supplements are by far more important than meat or any diet, yes sir, positively true without a doubt! watch, no one will comment on this, ha ha. i am so happy to have found true health in my brain, yes sir, my brain works positively A-okay.

[@cesarhernandez7108]

Meat is much better than mineral supplements! Meat has all the minerals you can get. 😊😛🍣🍠🥩🥩🥩🍗🍗🥓🥓

Do you troll much?
