In our last episode, Doc's business partner and wife, Amy, explored the connections between nutrition and neuroscience. In this episode, Doc interviews his daughter, Dr. Kate Wierenga, a post-doctoral researcher at the University of Utrecht in the Netherlands. Tother, they explore the causes and effects of inflammation in the body, how that shifts the nervous system into the sympathetic state, and the underlying chemistry of our red blood cells. Particularly, they look at how variations in the ratio of Omega fatty acids in our blood affect our ability to fight inflammation and how to shift our diet to improve that ratio.

The lessons learned aren't just for elite athletes. Everyone, from children to adults in every field, can develop the ability to perform at their potential.
