What Andrew Huberman Says About Contrast Therapy

Neuroscientist Dr. Andrew Huberman has been vocal about the power of contrast therapy (cold plunging + sauna) for recovery and performance. Here’s what he says:

🔥 Heat Therapy (Sauna) Benefits:

• Increases growth hormone (muscle repair & fat loss)

• Improves cardiovascular function

• Enhances endurance & performance

🧊 Cold Plunge Benefits:

• Triggers dopamine spikes (lasting 2-3 hours!)

• Strengthens immune response

• Improves metabolic health

How to Do It?

1. Start with heat. Sauna for 15-20 min.

2. Go cold. 2-5 min in an ice bath or cold plunge.

3. Repeat 2-3 rounds.

Huberman’s main takeaway? The more extreme the temperature shift, the better the benefits.
