Night sweats and body temps

My 4 year old son gets night sweats only at the start of the night. Every night he goes to bed around 7:30 and when I go to be around 10:30 he has shifted himself away from his pillow because his pillow is wet from sweat. The temperature in his room is not too hot. He wears short sleeved pyjamas. And his blanket is now a single sheet. It was my understanding that as we go to sleep, our core body temp reduces in order for us to go to sleep. But I find it difficult to understand how he would sweat if his body temp was dropping. I’d love to hear your thoughts.

Nita Farahany's "The battle for your brain"

Could you do a book review of Nita Farahany's latest work on neurotechnology, discuss the pros and cons of devices on the market, or maybe do an interview with her? It's such a fascinating field out there!

What is the verdict on soy?

For healthy females and males, is there a version of soy that should be enjoyed? For example, I am asking specifically about a single ingredient, organic soymilk, edamame, or proper tofu (not processed or modified foods). If there is a reason to avoid soy, for who and why? Thanks!

Morning protein metabolism

If I get only protein as soon as I wake up and work out, will any of it get get burned for energy or will I use the stored glycogen first? I usually drink a whey protein shake with caffeine, creatine, extra leucine and maybe some beta alanine when doing muscular endurance. I'm not sure about the order of energy sources used or if there is overlap: ingested protein, muscle/liver glycogen, adipose fast.
