Cleanse

Here's an overview of what the Huberman Lab podcast has discussed regarding cleanses and related topics:

1. Digestive Cleanses and Fasting:

   • There is a lack of high-quality scientific evidence regarding the benefits or drawbacks of cleanses for digestive health. The discussion highlights that while fasting may offer benefits, particularly for those with metabolic syndrome, adherence to dietary changes can be challenging for many. The conversation also emphasizes the need to consider one's starting health state when evaluating these practices 1.

2. Skin Cleansing:

   • Over-cleansing is a common issue, especially in hyper-hygienic societies, leading to disruption of the skin's natural microbiome. Simple, fragrance-free cleansers, such as unscented Dove soap or Cetaphil, are recommended for maintaining skin health without causing irritation. Expensive skincare products are noted to lack evidence of being more effective than cost-effective options 2 3.

3. Integrity Cleanse:

   • This refers to a concept of aligning one's actions with personal values, helping individuals achieve deeper self-awareness and personal growth. It involves confronting uncomfortable truths about oneself 4.

These insights reflect the discussions by Andrew Huberman and his guests, focusing on different aspects of cleansing from physiological to psychological perspectives.
