Episode #454
Poor deep and REM sleep drives chronically high cortisol, which suppresses key hormones, raises blood sugar, promotes fat storage, blocks muscle gain, and impairs cognition and gut health.
Use daily metrics to guide decisions: HRV for stress, CGM for glucose, body composition over weight, and sleep tracking with targets of ~1 hour deep sleep and ~2 hours REM.
Build consistent habits with prompts/anchors and a pre-bed routine (reading, journaling, sauna, meditation, or sex), while avoiding late eating/drinking and screens.
The numbers don't lie.
HRV low equals high stress.
Weight's a relatively insignificant metric.
