Assess Recovery & Internal State With the CO2 Tolerance Test

Dr. Andrew Huberman discusses with Brian Mackenzie the significance and methodology of the carbon dioxide tolerance test, detailing how it can provide insights into one's physiological state and aid in developing specific breathwork protocols to enhance mental and physical performance.

Brian Mackenzie, founder and CEO of SHIFT, is an expert in human performance, specializing in stress adaptation through custom training protocols that enhance elite athletes, executives, military operators, and individuals with chronic issues related to autonomic dysregulation. Dr. Andrew Huberman is a tenured professor of neurobiology and ophthalmology at Stanford University School of Medicine and host of the Huberman Lab podcast.

We know we'll get questions about the drink on the table. It's from Mateina, one of our podcast sponsors, where Andrew is also a part-owner and investor. Additionally, we're excited to share that Andrew has helped create Lemon Zero, Mateina's first cold-brewed yerba mate with zero sugar.
