Sauna Protocol for Better Sleep, Heart Health & Longevity | Peter Nelson
In this episode, Dr. Jeremy London sits down with Peter Nelson, an athlete, father of three, and co-founder of Sisu Sauna. Pete shares how his father went from tongue cancer surgery, a rare post-operative stroke, to running again. Pete spent those months walking him on a treadmill every day. Then they get into the science and practice of traditional sauna: what the Finnish research shows, how a beginner should start, the most common mistakes, and who should skip the sauna altogether. In this episode: - Pete’s father’s recovery from cancer and stroke to running ultras again - Why “self-inflicted hardship” and one scary goal every quarter build resilience - Three things Pete wants to pass on to his kids: leading by action, showing love, and being present - How Sisu went 18 months without a sale before finding Amish craftsmen in Ohio - Traditional vs. infrared vs. steam sauna, and where the evidence is strongest - A beginner protocol: temperature, time, and the “3 more minutes” rule - Benefits for cardiovascular health, all-cause mortality, brain health, sleep, and growth hormone - Why you should end evening contrast sessions in the sauna, not the cold plunge - Common mistakes: going too hot, staying too long, bringing your phone - Who should avoid sauna, and why it isn’t always the “recovery tool” people think Check out Sisu Saunas and save $250: https://sisulifestyle.com/london Thank you to our sponsors Rho Nutrition: Get 25% off the most bioavailable supplements on the market by heading to https://rhonutrition.com/london (Code: LONDON) LMNT: Get a free sample pack of LMNT's most popular flavors with any purchase at https://www.drinklmnt.com/london Rorra: The highest quality filtered water pitcher on the market at https://www.rorra.com/london Pete Nelson: Pete's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/peternelsonii Sisu Sauna's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/sisu_sauna Website: https://sisulifestyle.com/london Jeremy London, MD: My Newsletter: https://www.drjeremylondon.com/newsletter Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/drjeremylondon/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@drjeremylondon Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/drjeremylondonmd Get access to every episode before YouTube by subscribing for free on Spotify - https://spoti.fi/3FU0S6O or Apple Podcasts - https://apple.co/3DJvyav Timestamps: 00:00 Introduction 00:49 How Pete and Dr. London first connected 04:10 Pete’s dad: from chain smoker to ultramarathoner 06:46 Cancer diagnosis and a stroke after surgery 10:01 From a stroke to a 40-mile ultra in 5 months 15:44 What “Sisu” means 16:31 Self-inflicted hardship and quarterly adventures 20:14 3 things Pete wants to pass on to his kids 29:57 How Sisu Sauna started: 18 months with zero sales 34:32 Why Sauna? 35:52 Types of Saunas and a Beginner’s Protocol 38:10 Benefits for the heart, brain, sleep and growth hormone 45:46 Common sauna mistakes and who should avoid it 52:01 Building a brand on trust and relationships 58:59 What’s next for Pete and Sisu ** The information in this video is not intended nor implied to be a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis or treatment.

My thoughts on Carnivore (From a Heart Surgeon)
As a heart surgeon, what does Dr. Jeremy London really think about the carnivore diet? Few nutrition topics divide people as quickly as the carnivore diet. Some swear by it, while others have had a rough experience. In this video, cardiac surgeon Dr. Jeremy London evaluates carnivore the way he believes every nutrition plan should be judged: by how it works for most people, not one success story or one failure. Dr. London has tried the carnivore diet himself and used it as a tool. He shares what he learned, why he eventually stopped, and how he weighs the pros and cons from a cardiovascular perspective. In this video, you’ll learn: - The difference between carnivore and keto, and why the two get confused - The real benefits: elimination diet, protein intake, metabolic health, satiety, and simplicity - The drawbacks: limited long-term data, sustainability, social pressure, and no fiber - Why low insulin causes your kidneys to flush electrolytes, and why you need to replace them - The biggest concern for cardiologists and heart surgeons: rising apolipoprotein B (ApoB) - Why looking good in the mirror isn’t the same as being healthy, and which labs you should check If your nutritional plan is working and your weight, labs, and energy are where they should be, Dr. London isn’t here to argue with success. But you have to look under the hood. Know your ApoB, LDL-C, HDL, triglycerides, hemoglobin A1C, and fasting insulin. The best nutritional plan is the one you can sustain, and that keeps your whole physiology in balance.

Walking Won’t Save Your Bones (Here’s What Will)
Walking won’t build strong bones. Not even with a weighted vest. In this episode, Dr. Jeremy London explains why your bones need more force than everyday movement provides, how bone remodeling works, and the three pillars that protect you from frailty, falls, and fractures as you age. Read this 'How to Maximize Bone Density and Avoid Osteoporosis': https://drjeremylondon.com/articles/how-to-maximize-bone-density-and-avoid-osteoporosis-7fb49 You’ll learn: - Why walking is powerful for metabolic health but falls short for bone density - How mechanical stress signals your bones to build new tissue and slows breakdown - Why a DEXA scan is the gold standard for knowing where you stand - Why hip fractures are so dangerous, and why men face higher mortality after one - The 3 pillars of avoiding frailty: balance and coordination, strength and bone loading, and nutrition - Why lifting at 80–85% of your one-rep max beats “3 sets of 10” - How impact training (jumping, stairs, tennis, basketball, volleyball) stimulates bone growth - The nutrients your bones need: protein, calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, vitamin D3, and K2 Thank you to our sponsor LMNT: Get a free sample pack of LMNT's most popular flavors with any purchase at https://www.drinklmnt.com/london Jeremy London, MD: My Newsletter: https://www.drjeremylondon.com/newsletter Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/drjeremylondon/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@drjeremylondon Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/drjeremylondonmd Timestamps: 00:00 Walking Doesn't Build Strong Bones 00:21 Walking Benefits 01:41 Why Bones Need More Force 01:59 How to Build Strong Bones 02:50 Start with a baseline: the DEXA scan 03:21 Avoid Frailty and Falls 03:53 Hip Fractures: higher mortality in men 04:22 The 3 Pillars of Avoiding Frailty 04:52 Balance and Coordination 05:05 Resistance Training: 80–85% of your 1RM 05:34 Impact training and sports for bone health 06:17 Nutrition for strong bones 07:22 Where to Start Tomorrow ** The information in this video is not intended nor implied to be a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis or treatment.
