Prioritizing sufficient quality and quantity of sleep, particularly deep non-REM sleep, optimizes growth hormone release.

“try and have blood glucose not too high. So if you do need to eat close to bed, you wouldn't want to eat anything that would increase blood glucose too much. Try not to eat too close to bedtime. Get into deep sleep early in the night. Get the growth hormone release. And understand that it's the delta waves of activity, the sweeping big waves of activity in the neurons that stimulate the brain to stimulate the pituitary.”

“If that were the case, that would say that growth hormone is just released in a so-called circadian dependent way. Every 24 hours is the pulse of it, but no, it's always relating to slow-wave deep sleep and delta waves.”

“everyone should strive to get uh sleep ideally at night um of sufficient quality and quantity which you already discussed and getting sufficient amounts of deep sleep is going to be especially important for sake of growth hormone release”

“it's the delta waves of activity these sweeping big waves of activity in the neurons that stimulate the brain to stimulate the pituitary because once you understand that then you have something to Anchor to in terms of thinking what are the things I can in waking that will allow me to release more growth hormone”

“With growth hormone, it's all about eating at the right time and sleeping.”
