Stressed for Success: Dr. Sharon Horesh Bergquist on the Science of Good Stress

In this episode I sit down with Dr. Sharon Horesh Bergquist to explore the fantastic concept of hormesis—the science of good stress.

We discuss her book The Stress Paradox and how how certain stressors, when applied in the right way, can build resilience, prevent chronic disease, and even slow aging. 

Some episode hightights:

—Mild to moderate stressors like fasting, exercise, and thermal exposure can strengthen the body and enhance resilience.

—Recovery is required: Stress without recovery leads to burnout. 

—When you eat: Meal timing and decreasing your eating window support metabolic health, giving cells the chance to repair and detoxify.
