Andrew Huberman: Sauna

16 fold increase in growth hormone
[measured before and after: significant increase]

"Result impact went down as exposure to
sauna went up...
-day 1: 16 fold increase in growth hormone
-day 3: 3 to 4 fold increase
-day 7: 2 to 3 fold increase
"Heat, like cold, is a stressor to the system
Example: 5C ice bath for 20 seconds;
increases norepinephrine 200%
But, if everyday: you would become cold adapted

In the sauna experiment...
less impact over time due to:
-shift in temperature was of less impact
because down stream effectors
were not engaged to same extent:
was not as much of a shock!
