Sleep has a Unique Impact on Ageing - Dr David Sinclair 

What is that patch he was talking about that were true medical devices?

Trondheim. Yes, the sun acts all crazy in Norway

Since tracking my sleep that's the main thing I've learned. 8 hours IN bed is usually 7 hours or less of actual sleep. It's hard to get 8 hours in without really pushing it I find.

@@ChrisWillx 8 hour sleep is a myth …

@@ChrisWillx I'm looking forward to less intrusive tech to accurately measure sleep cycles via brain activity. I'd love to test and quantify some of the things that I believe work for me.

Oxygen, damn free radicals oxidizing everything.. we need to wage a war on oxygen

Very true. It's possible worrying about all this stuff is counter-productive to health.

The reason an alarm has a negative effect is because it will interrupt the sleep cycle you are in. We cycle multiple times through various brain wave states and without an alarm the mind and body is left to do what it know best and waking naturally when the body is ready is the optimal way. Just to add what's worse than an alarm is hitting the snooze button for ten minutes and drifting off into the first cycle of sleep and then being woken just minutes after will leave you feeling rough for a while

I wonder if Zac Efron suffered from sleep apnea hmm

People with teeth overcrowding or who have had braces are more likely to have it too, as the mouth is undeveloped from what it would have been before we moved to industrialised diets.

I got it and it fucking sucks I can sleep for 8 hours and still be tired in the day.

Very well said...but one important biological component is the length of our neck in proportion to the weight of our skull which sadly none of us can change

I have read some info that it can improve with caffaeine reduction and more magnesium in the diet. Something about muscle relaxation and stuff.

Nah the anti-work movement is just a gathering of lazy people.

smelly redditor mcdonalds workers have no valid points

So the anti work movement is a real thing? Sheet. But why is keeping proper sleep patterns in a 5 day work week a huge challenge for most? Whats changed? Could it be that people just aren't tired enough? I think people stress far too much about not getting enough sleep and I know the 8 hour a night recommended amount of sleep is BS, its much closer to being 6-7 hours as an optimal amount and even less if you are old.

To get 8 hours sleep is not hard even with work, but if you have small kids that would be different. So work is not cause of lack of sleep, but bad habits and other family matter affect sleep.

@@neskorock Getting 8 hours of sleep is not easy for everyone.

Watch an excerpt or two of an episode, then LISTEN to the whole episode…it really helps to implement lessons learned from it and you support Chris on two fronts

He's 52. Still looks great though.

He looks his age, 52

And hours in your sleep by the sound of things

Cope

Amen

How true 👌👍

Well said! Heard this the other day: how many years do we actually have that we can call our own? Let's say we live until 80, one third of it will be spent on sleep assuming an average of 8 hours a day, that deducts about 25 years leaving us with 55 years...another 8 or more hours is spent at work for we need $ to survive deduct another 25 years and we are left with 30 years...of these 30 years left we have to devote another half of it to care for our family members and that leaves us with about 15 years...of these 15 years left we have to take away probably another 10 years in which we will live with some form of chronic diseases which leave us with 5 years...isn't that sad that life is actually death in the mirror...go figure 🤔

Sleep anxiety is the worst!!!

Noice canceling headset? Or earbuds? No coffee? How are you just not dying for sleep the moment you get home?

A little tip if you can't sleep don't try to! Just lie down and rest. If you can't sleep 9 times out of ten its because you aren't tired enough or because you have worries, sort those worries ie do some work.

can you explain further?

@@NineDiamont - Temperature control. Your lungs aren’t huge fans of air that’s too hot or cold. Unless you have an obstruction (like a deviated septum or chronic rhinitis), your nasal passageways will warm (and sometimes cool when needed) the air to your lungs. Your mouth doesn’t have a way to do this. For example, winter runners who breathe deeply through their noses get warmed air without sending a chill to their lungs, versus those who breathe with their mouths. - Filtering. The cilia in your nose passageway filters out debris and toxins in the air and sends them directly down your throat instead of your lungs. (Gross, but intentionally better in your stomach than anywhere else.) Mouth breathing sends whatever’s in the air directly into your lungs. - Humidifying. The passages in your nose are specifically designed to humidify the air you breathe, something not present in your mouth. Ever wake up after a restless night’s sleep with dry mouth or sore throat? Chances are, you’re fighting nature by mouth-breathing, and you’re not getting the humidifying or moisture-balancing benefits of nasal breathing. www.google.com/amp/s/health.clevelandclinic.org/breathe-mouth-nose/amp/ Also breathing through your nose allows for the oxygen to sit and become CO2 whereas breathing through your mouth inhales too much oxygen and then exhales too much, leaving your body with pretty much no necessary CO2.

Just as he lied about digital medical records being secure (heard of the IRS stealing some 10 million?) he is peddling transhumanism and minimising the steep price we'll have to pay in exchange for it.

Yeah a lot of what he said makes me very uncomfortable.

Not if you aren't a paranoid nutjob.

@@the_endling Cool story

8th year here. I try to schedule myself nice layovers where I can sleep in and relax to balance out the occasional redeyes I’ll work.

If you are still working after 30 years you need to figure something out. It’s time to retire

Absolutely... So complacent...

So you don't use cell phones? Your computer is firewalled, dynamic IP, has a VPN? When you go to your doctor for an appointment, you don't verify any personnel information with the receptionist because you will not provide any due to security concerns regarding health network security? You hand them a paper only medical record and they are okay with this? When you have surgery, the doctor records all surgical notes on paper to store in a hospital file, with an anonymous patient name in case the file is broken into? You have provided the state and federal government with no required information because they will store it electronically? Do you think some random, American worker bee like yourself is worth the trouble to hack into to steal your heart rate and metabolic data? Now, I'm not some "govern me harder daddy" sheeple, but I find it contradictory when people want to ignore a multitude of issues to take a stand against one. Go live in the woods and remove yourself from the grid then and stop expressing concerns about technological securities while typing on RU-vid.

For me it's about the productivity. When i sleep 8 hours, i can use the 16 hours WAY more efficiently than if i slept 6 hours and be awake for 18. Doesn't have to be true for others though.

Key question- will gaining that waking month per year take away months or years of your life? Studies suggest we all need 7 hrs of sleep after a certain age for max benefit. 6 is not enough for me.

sunlight causes 90% of skin aging.

it' snot in our nature to sleep * hour straight...that's a modern thing when people worked in factories..usually 8 to 12 midnight , then take a break and then again til 5am...was sleep in the olden days....animals dont sleep 8 hours...what's important is that you sleep, rest... body is not built to fall apart easily - the 8 hours is a made up concept...

Why?

lol why is it interesting ??? i mean we all want long healthy lives

@@sahtemehdiavcstarkd8712 because I’d rather eat the cheesecake and have some beer.

@@Brian-vk1hm you can still have them once in a while. But not every single day.

fr these old asses need to accept their age

wow incredible insight, by that metric we should go back to the stone ages when there were no doctors or medication.

@@definitelynotnick2454 Plato in his Laws discussed slave doctors and free doctors for the rulers. Slaves doctors didn't know their patients personally, saw them only when they complained of an illness, and prescribed drugs for them. That perfectly describes modern medicine for most people. In contrast, doctors for the rulers knew their patients, knew their lifestyles, and prescribed lifestyle changes when things went awry. Modern drug based medicine stems from "germ theory," or that we "catch" diseases and therefore a pill or a shot can "cure" a disease. This has no basis in fact or observation and stems from fraudsters like Louis Pasteur and Robert Koch and the AMA. Modern medical schools all teach germ theory and pill cures because vast profits exist in drug dealing. Big Pharma finances all the medical schools and does not permit any contrary thought. So-called "medication" kills between 200,000 and 800,000 people a year in the US, depending on the source. Even the Big Pharma controlled CDC admits the problem of Iatrogenesis. Since doctors report cause of death we may never have accurate figures. Some forms of medical care have improved greatly, like surgery on limbs. But life expectancy in the US has declined for many groups, such as blacks and white males and barely has inched up for others. If you think pills will improve your health and the length of your life I suspect you also believe in the tooth fairy and Santa and that Government exists for your benefit and your vote counts. Magical thinking learned in childhood tends to stick with most people. Give the AMA money and they will cure cancer, a lie they have pushed for many decades but people still believe. If you want to live a long life stay away from pills and doctors who prescribe them. Watch a few Dr. Vernon Coleman videos on youtube such as his recent Ignorance and Prejudice in Medicine. An old, thin doctor. Work out, cut down on eating, fast regularly, reduce your stress, develop regular habits, including sleep. Avoid "medicine," because it can kill you.

@@TomCarberry413 Thank you ❤️

Just turned 37 and people say I look 19, I'm also exceptionally spry and healthy but I'm a hardcore insomniac.. So much for his theory. May he enjoy his extra 20 years in the tech gulag, though.. Lol

I'd like to know this too

Well..yeah. A bad sleep is still better than no sleep. It just better to use the medications rarely and only if realy needed. It pays more to just figure out the reason why you cant fall asleep normaly and solve it.

Highly HIGHLY recommend Matthew Walker on Joe Rogan, Episode #1109 I think. That really changed my view on sleep.

Have you looked at your female hormone levels as this may have an impact on your sleep 💤

@@ChrisWillx I loved his book Why We Sleep. Also I have been listening to Andrew Huberman's podcast recently, and he stresses the need for us to get outside to expose eyes/retinas to natural light within the first hour of waking, for at least two minutes, to ensure you sleep well later on at night. I have been doing this for a month now and can say it has increased the quality of my sleep.

@@ChrisWillx Thank you! I'll give it a try.

@@kindnutritionist2672 No i have not but I hear this could be it. Just entered my 40s. Making my doctors appt today. Thank you!

Are you tracking? You'd be amazed at what the wearables tell you about your sleep quality. Insightful/terrifying.

@@ChrisWillx I’m paranoid about giving the beast more information than it already has! It’s useless resistance, but it’s in my nature.

@@Car-jy8pw But you're on youtube! Might as well go all the way lol

I thought I slept reasonably well until my Samsung watch told me I get about 4mins of deep sleep each night. 😳

@@Alexandrite_xo oh wow. I hope that thing was wrong.

its bad. They are like night shift workers lol. ( I was the same in my teens)

Sleep is vital to the body and cannot be messed around with. Simple as that.

@@PolishBehemoth That’s right, but so is food and essential nutrients, but fasting is beneficial, while delaying sleep has horrible health consequences

I think it's what you said, lack of sleep is similar to an infection or an injury. Sleep is restorative to our bodies. Our bodies are healing and repairing themselves when we sleep. On another video he mentions that eating is a form of rest for the body. So eating too much is equivalent to not getting enough activity and exercise, if you think about it. Eating = rest, too much eating = too much rest, too much rest = bad. That's how I see it at least.

@@niellalien Very interesting, I think mostly true. Maybe more like- too much eating is not necessarily too much rest, but too much work for the body to process the food, it’s taxing? Also, technically, if we slept too much, that would also cause unwelcome physiological effects, not as bad as sleeping too little, but we would get the unwelcome effects of a stagnant sedentary lifestyle.

@@ola333221 Exactly. Everything in moderation.

Agreed

Well, we could say "living" is the disease as we deteriorate day by day a little more until we die..

Read this it might explain why most scientists belive ageing is a disease

@@marcuioan7823 read what?

Well it isnt, still fucking sucks and need to be cured ASAP

Even if you're over tired doesn't mean you will be able to sleep

Yes, that would be optimal. I've heard both Matthew Walker and David Sinclair on podcasts mentioning this.

The problem is not just the sleep. Its food and activity too. When you eat and sleep atthe same time every day - your body starts to get ready for food and sleep at the same time - making digestive biles, making you feel sleepy, ect. But when you are not - the body is confused - do we sleep, do we eat? And if you introduce coffee - then its a shit show.

I am sure his university email address are online.

@@the_endling what if, after we fight for more rights, we use the well earned free time to teach ourselves how to make and code the technology ourselves? Why be scared you're dependent on when you can make it yourself?

@@pacotaco1246 The issue is that this kind of technology would always cause friction so to speak with our "human side".. If you can recode your whole memory, would you not erase bad memories? If you could recode your character or influence it, should you still be so annoying? The moment we start "enhancing" humans directly with this "technology" new dilemmas will open up and society split again into two camps: the traditionalists and the reformists that believe in technology as a religion.. Invention is fine, as long as we do not incorporate it into our brains or expect others to

Do you have medical diagnostics to back that up? What is your definition of fine?

@@PolishBehemoth im alive I guess. Its more than few years that way. I started with skipping 1 night once in a while, then skipping 1 night every 2 days, then 2 once in a while, etc...

@@ghnbtrcv8672 that's not a solid definition of "fine". Smokers and people with cancer are alive for years, and they are definitely not fine or living happy lives in their desired potential.
