But, Rogan added he is "not a doctor" or a "respected source of information."ĭr. Anthony Fauci, the nation's leading infectious disease expert, called out Rogan in April and said young people "absolutely" need to get vaccinated. Rogan on Sunday also defended his decision to book Dr. Robert Malone, an infectious disease specialist who has become well-known among anti-vaccine Americans and was banned from Twitter for spreading Covid misinformation. Rogan in the past has also promoted the use of ivermectin to treat Covid-19, despite warnings that there's no proof it can be effective at treating the virus.E very morning of my Joe Rogan experience began the same way Joe Rogan begins his: with the mushroom coffee. It’s a pour-and-stir powder made from lion’s mane and chaga-“two rock-star mushrooms,” according to Joe-and it’s made by a company called Four Sigmatic, a regular advertiser on Joe Rogan’s wildly popular podcast. As a coffee lover, the mere existence of mushroom coffee offends me. (“I’ll have your most delicious thing, made from your least delicious things, please,” a friend said, scornfully.) But it tastes fine, and even better after another cup of actual coffee. Next, I took several vitamin supplements from a company called Onnit, whose core philosophy is “total human optimization” and whose website sells all kinds of wicked-cool fitness gear-a Darth Vader kettlebell ($199.95) a 50-foot roll of two-and-a-half-inch-thick battle rope ($249.95) a 25-pound quad mace ($147.95), which according to one fitness-equipment site is a weapon dating back to 11th-century Persia. It’s safe to say we’ll have this episode on repeat for a while.I stuck to the health products, though, because you know how it goes-you buy one quad mace and soon your apartment is filled with them. Breath work practice dates back at least 4,000 years to Northern India, though breathing is often overlooked in modern health practices.Īnd this barely scratches the surface of what James Nestor and Joe Rogan discuss-their conversation is so thorough you’ll want to take notes.25-50% of the population currently breathes habitually through their mouth, but doing so can contribute to both neurological and respiratory problems, metabolic disorders, and issues like snoring and sleep apnea.The less you use your nose to breathe, the harder it becomes to do so–if you don’t breathe through your nose, the tissues will tighten and close up. Practice your breathing the same way you would practice any skill.75% of the oxygen we breathe in, we breathe back out. It’s a myth that the more we breathe, the more air we get.Breathing through your nose slows the rate at which you breathe, but increases the oxygen your body receives by 20% than if you were to breathe more rapidly through your mouth.The physical benefits of nose breathing are similar to training at altitude: you boost your red blood cell count and VO2 max.It can help relieve asthma, anxiety, and regulate blood pressure and circulation, just to name a few. Nasal breathing is the most efficient way of breathing, giving us leverage over systems in our body we can’t otherwise access.You can listen to the episode here, and check out a few of our favorite facts and highlights below– The podcast covers everything from the importance of carbon dioxide, to game-changing breathing techniques for exercise, to the evolutionary effect industrialization has had on our bodies, ultimately narrowing our mouths and airways. He’s the author of the new book Breath: The New Science of a Lost Art, which we’ve bumped to the very top of our summer reading list. In this episode, Joe Rogan interviews James Nestor, a journalist who’s written for Outside Magazine, The New York Times, NPR, The Atlantic, and others. #1506 of the Joe Rogan Experience is all about nose breathing, and why you should be doing it. “If you’re not breathing right, you’re never really going to be healthy.” James Nestor Ep. ![]()
