About this listen

Modern life is faster than our biology can handle. I personally have had to fight my own speeding problem. In this episode, I explore how living at a constantly accelerated pace can quietly trigger adrenaline, inflammation, and long-term disease risk, even in people who appear healthy on paper. We'll cover:

  • Why your nervous system may have a biological speed limit
  • The link between adrenaline and chronic inflammation
  • The forgotten research on "hurry sickness" and heart disease
  • 3 modern adrenaline triggers that go undetected in most people
  • Why speed may be contributing to today's rise in "surprise disease"
  • Simple ways to tap the brakes during the day and reset your nervous system
