  • Ep209 - Sleep, Neurotransmitters & Genetics: A Precision Medicine Approach with Kendall Stewart, MD

    Ep209 - Sleep, Neurotransmitters & Genetics: A Precision Medicine Approach with Kendall Stewart, MD
    Mar 6 2026

    In this episode, Dr. Yishan sits down with Dr. Kendall Stewart — a former skull-based surgeon who has spent the past two decades pioneering a data-driven approach to functional medicine, genetics, and neuroimmune health. Together, they explore the biological roots of sleep struggles that behavioral advice alone often can't fix: neurotransmitter imbalances, genetic variants, and inflammation in the nervous system. Dr. Stewart breaks down how genes governing GABA production, melatonin receptor sensitivity, dopamine methylation, and adenosine signaling can silently undermine sleep — and how targeted nutritional support can restore the balance that makes the brain ready for rest.

    Dr. Stewart also shares remarkable insights from his work with thousands of patients, including children on the autism spectrum, revealing how lessons from neuroimmune research are shaping a new model of precision sleep medicine. He explains why psychological and behavioral sleep therapies work dramatically better when the brain is first supported biologically, and introduces accessible tools — including at-home genetic panels through his company Helix Revolution — that are making personalized care available without a doctor's visit. If you've ever felt that generic sleep advice just doesn't apply to you, this conversation will show you why — and what to do about it.

  • Ep208 - What Sleep Taught Me This Year | Night Terrors, Nightmares, Sleep Apnea & Gratitude

    Ep208 - What Sleep Taught Me This Year | Night Terrors, Nightmares, Sleep Apnea & Gratitude
    Jan 1 2026
    🎙️ Deep Into Sleep — Year-End Reflection EpisodeAs 2025 comes to an end, this special episode of Deep Into Sleep is a reflection on what a year of conversations has taught me about sleep, the brain, and the people who trust us with their nights.Rather than focusing on a single sleep disorder, this episode brings together four meaningful conversations that shaped how I now think about sleep across the lifespan—from childhood to adulthood, from behavior to biology.In this episode, we explore:🧠 Children’s Sleep TerrorsSleep terrors are often misunderstood and deeply frightening for parents. In this episode, I share key insights from a conversation with pediatric sleep expert Dr. Sarah Honaker.🌙 Nightmares Are TreatableNightmares are common—but nightmare disorder is not something people have to live with forever. In my conversation with Dr. Courtney Worley, we discussed some myths around nightmares.One key takeaway: improving sleep often starts during the day, not at night.😴 Snoring Is Never “Just Snoring”Several conversations this year reinforced one critical message: snoring is not benign. In my discussion with sleep physician Dr. Christopher Allen, we covered why sleep apnea has been described as a “slow killer”—not dramatic, but silent. We also discuss treatment options, including CPAP, and other options, emphasizing the importance of individualized care.🧬 Precision, Not Guesswork: The Future of Sleep CareIn an upcoming episode with Dr. Kendall Stewart, we explore sleep through the lens of genetics and neurochemistry. When we stop guessing and start tailoring treatment to the individual, sleep care becomes more effective—and more humane.🙏 Gratitude & ReflectionThis year also brought an unexpected moment of gratitude: being named “Sleep Podcast of the Year” by Dr. Chris Winter on his podcast Sleep Unplugged.I don’t take that recognition lightly. It belongs to every guest who shared their expertise, every listener who trusted this space, and every patient who reminds me why sleep education matters.If this episode helps you understand your sleep—or your child’s sleep—just a little better, then it has done its job.Thank you for going deep into sleep with me.00:00 – Opening: Why a Year-End Reflection on Sleep01:15 – Gratitude & “Sleep Podcast of the Year” Moment02:20 – What Parents Misunderstand About Children’s Sleep Terrors05:00 – Nightmares: Common, Treatable, and Not a Life Sentence07:45 – Snoring Is Not Benign: Sleep Apnea and Brain Health11:00 – Precision, Not Guesswork: Biology + Behavior in Sleep Care13:20 – Final Reflections & Thank YouShow Notes: deepintosleep.co/episode/breathingRESOURCESAre you so sleepy that you cannot focus?
