Yes, you can access transcripts for the episodes that discuss hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT). Here are some clips from episodes where HBOT is mentioned, along with transcripts for the relevant discussions:

  1. Dr. Peter Attia: Improve Vitality, Emotional & Physical Health & Lifespan

    • The use of hyperbaric oxygen immediately following a traumatic brain injury (TBI) and the need for precise protocols in clinics are mentioned. The intensive nature of common TBI protocols involving HBOT is discussed, along with skepticism about the efficacy of hyperbaric oxygen for longevity and other claims that lack strong evidence 1 2.

  2. Dr. Jack Feldman: Breathing for Mental & Physical Health & Performance

    • The topic of episodic hypoxia and its profound benefits on motor and cognition function is brought up, although this is not directly related to HBOT, it discusses the effects of varying oxygen levels in a different context 3. Additionally, Andrew's and Jack's thoughts on the rising interest in hyperbaric chambers for performance are touched on 4.

      Brain Health Interventions

      Andrew and Peter discuss the efficacy of hyperbaric oxygen and various brain supplements. While hyperbaric oxygen may be useful for wound healing and TBI, it is time-consuming and expensive for other purposes. They also touch on the unimpressive evidence for many brain supplements, emphasizing that exercise, sleep, insulin sensitivity, and lipid management are the most crucial interventions for brain health.
