- with Dr. Susanna Søberg, PhD in MetabolismChronic stress is the #1 killer in the world. It silently fuels today’s deadliest diseases—heart disease, diabetes, stroke, cancer, infections, and dementia. At the root of it all is chronic stress: it drives inflammation, weakens the immune system, and accelerates aging.
But here’s the truth: not all stress is bad. The right kind of stress can build resilience and boost longevity—if you know how to use it.
I’m Dr. Susanna Søberg, scientist and founder of Søberg Institute and Thermalist®, known from the Huberman Lab Podcast and author of Winter Swimming. I’ve dedicated my career to studying how cold, heat, exercise, sleep, and circadian rhythm affect metabolism, inflammation, and stress regulation.
In the Reset Lab Podcast, you’ll learn how to use simple, science-backed tools to:
• Lower chronic stress and inflammation
• Improve sleep and mental clarity
• Balance hormones and metabolism
• Boost energy, resilience, and longevity
We’ll dive into:
– How to use heat and cold exposure for better health
– The real link between stress and weight gain
– Why you feel tired all the time—and how to fix it
– The truth about women’s physiology and recovery
