Dr. Andrew Koutnik: Ketones Are The Future!

🎯 Top Takeaways

1. Focus follows stress: brief stress (like cold or exercise) enhances learning by releasing neurochemicals
2. Dopamine is about motivation, not reward—it drives you toward goals and is depleted by too-easy pleasures
3. View morning light without sunglasses to maximize cortisol release and set your circadian clock
4. Breathing controls your nervous system: longer exhales activate rest-and-digest; longer inhales activate alertness
5. Non-sleep deep rest (NSDR) can restore dopamine and mental energy in just 10-20 minutes
