The Heat Prescription: Why Sauna Use is Emerging as One of the Most Powerful Tools for Longevity, Recovery, and Performance
Regular sauna use is one of the most powerful tools for recovery, longevity, and human performance. Backed by decades of Finnish research, sauna therapy supports cardiovascular health, brain function, and sleep quality. This article breaks down the science, practical weekly structure, and hydration strategy to help you integrate sauna use into your life or travel routine.
Cold Water Immersion: Dosage, Sex Differences, and Practical Frameworks
Cold water immersion is one of the most effective tools for recovery and mental resilience, but only when dosed correctly. This article explores the science of time × temperature, how men and women differ in cold response, and how to apply progression plans that maximise benefits while minimising risks.
From Gatekeepers to Google: How Access to Science is Reshaping Health and Self-Care
Science has moved from the lab to the living room, empowering individuals to take control of their health. But with this access comes risk: misinformation, misinterpretation, and science-washing. In this article, we explore how access to science is reshaping the balance between healthcare and self-care, and why the future depends on using it responsibly.
Hydration & Electrolytes: The Overlooked Jet Lag Tool
Jet lag is often seen as a sleep problem. But hydration and electrolyte balance play a fundamental role in circadian alignment, recovery, and adaptation to new time zones. This article explores the science and shares practical hydration protocols for travel.
Hydration at Altitude: Understanding the Physiology and Managing It Effectively
Air travel exposes the human body to an environment unlike anything encountered on the ground. Cabins are engineered for safety and relative comfort, but the physiological stressors of altitude, including reduced oxygen availability, altered hormonal signalling, and extremely low humidity, create a perfect storm for dehydration. While jet lag and circadian disruption are often the focus of discussion, the physiological impact of altitude on hydration is a distinct challenge in its own right and demands targeted management.
