Upgrading Brain Neuroplasticity ft. Dr. Eleanor Stein

Welcome to another episode of the Health Upgrade Podcast!

In this episode, we are joined by Dr. Eleanor Stein to dive deep into the intricate connections between the autonomic nervous system, immune system, and central nervous system. Together, we explore how stress impacts our immune response and leads to cognitive issues like brain fog and depression. The discussion covers holistic treatment approaches that combine sleep, counseling, diet, exercise, and vagus nerve stimulation to improve physical and mental health.
Dr. Stein elaborates on the role of microglial cells and mitochondrial health, emphasizing how stress affects cellular function and can lead to chronic conditions like myalgic encephalomyelitis and long COVID. Through the concept of hormesis, you will learn how small, controlled stressors like intermittent fasting can boost mitochondrial function and overall health. The episode also highlights neuroplasticity's potential for recovery, especially in chronic pain and trauma, underscoring the importance of creating safety in psychological and physical realms.
