Night waking; unable to get back to sleep

I'm 65 and there are times i wake (crazy dream or peeing - sometimes only once) and cannot get back to sleep; My brain fully wakes, thinking its time to get going for the day. It seems the only thing i have found that sometime helps is taking half of a 25 mg of Doxylamine Succinate before bed. Obviously i don't want to take this. The supplements you've suggested don't help with that issue. Thanks

Residual effects of thalamic stroke

I'm probable in the minority of wanting insight on the residual effects of a thalamic stroke i experienced 5 years ago, but i'd still like insight on this. The main issue is extreme exhaustion that comes from standing still, for example the simple act of standing making dinner (not walking 3 or 4 miles), but standing for 20 minutes chopping or the like and i'm completely wiped out. Any thoughts as to what might help that balance center of the thalamus get stronger and negate the fatigue of standing?

Hello Dr Huberman, first of all I’m a great fan of your podcast and work! I’d like to know if you share more information and tools on the development of senescent/zombie cells and strategies to get rid of them. Thanks!

Ratios

Hi, and thanks for the opportunity to ask the question... what do you think about ratios of food and therefore food types when eating a meal? Does the ratio of fat protein, carbohydrate, fibre etc make a difference to the nutritional chemistry?
