Occular migraines

In your episode about headaches, there was a mention about migraine auras. You said that it was caused from a depression happening in the brain. Can you elaborate on that a bit more? What is happening during an occular migraine. What is causing me seeing zig zag patterns. Should I be worried it something more serious?

Blushing

Why do we blush? Why do some people blush more than others? If i'm slightly uncomfortable in any situation, my face goes beat red even if I don't feel embarrassed about anything. I feel an extrovert trapped in a introverts body!

Putting it all together hub and spoke - how does an individual manage all of this data?

You, me, or any of your subscribers are at the center of a data hub. Blood, DNA, and other tests provide us with performance feedback. Nutrition intake, exercise, and other trackers provide us with the tools to modify behaviors. I suspect most of us are motivated to improve. Most of us cannot access lab staff to help us keep track of the hundreds of data points mentioned in your or other podcasts. Would you dedicate a content series focused on the available tools for a regular person to capture, process, and interpret the data needed to improve their lives? Perhaps the first episode could focus on the general concept, and subsequent episodes focused on platform-specific approaches (Apple, Fitbit/Google, etc.). Not everyone is tech-savvy and would benefit from a hub and spoke model (the person at the center needs to track nutritional input, use this tool, feed into this central database, and benefits you in this way - move to the next spoke of info) - simplify it so more folks can sustain improvement over time.
