Sleep is one of the most important but least understood aspects of our life, wellness, and longevity. Until very recently, science had no answer to the question of why we sleep, or what good it served, or why we suffer such devastating health consequences when we don't sleep. Compared to the other basic drives in life - eating, drinking, and reproducing - the purpose of sleep remained elusive.

While researching the toxic and addictive properties of sugar for Fat Chance, Robert Lustig made an alarming discovery - our pursuit of happiness is being subverted by a culture of addiction and depression from which we may never recover. Dopamine is the "reward" neurotransmitter that tells our brains we want more; yet every substance or behavior that releases dopamine in the extreme leads to addiction. Serotonin is the "contentment" neurotransmitter that tells our brains we don't need any more; yet its deficiency leads to depression.

Emotional energy is in many ways our most precious resource. Emotions are the fuel for absolutely everything we say, do, and create, and emotions are directly responsible for the degree of personal and professional success that we enjoy in life. Successful people, no matter their profession or field of interest, all have one key characteristic in common: they are masters of managing their emotional energy. Simply put, they control their emotions, and don’t let their emotions control them.

There are an estimated 6.5 million people in the US who suffer from dementia—a statistic that is only anticipated to increase as time goes on.
