In this episode, Dr. Jockers sits down with Dr. Scott Sherr to break down why so many people are stuck in fight or flight and what it's really doing to your brain and body. You'll learn how GABA acts as the "brake system" for your nervous system and why low levels are linked to anxiety, poor sleep, and burnout. They also unpack why fixing stress is not just mental, but deeply biological.   You'll get a clearer picture of what's actually going on inside your cells when you feel exhausted, wired, or mentally foggy. Dr. Sherr explains how your mitochondria play a central role in all of it and why supporting them can change how you feel day to day. They also talk about tools like methylene blue and oxygen therapy, and when they can actually make a difference.   They also get into why constantly pushing harder isn't the answer, and how being able to slow your system down can actually improve your performance. You'll hear what it really means to shift into a parasympathetic state and why so many people struggle to get there. It may change the way you think about stress, recovery, and what your body actually needs.   In This Episode:  00:24 Show Intro and Guest 05:04 Sympathetic Spiral of Doom Explained 08:40 The Parasympathetic Edge 12:32 GABA Gas and Brakes System 15:22 Gut Inflammation and GABA Connection 16:49 Safer Ways to Support GABA 19:55 Alcohol, Benzos and Dependence 22:26 Why Calming Alone Can Backfire 27:13 Mitochondrial Dysfunction Root Causes 30:29 Methylene Blue as an Energy Bridge 32:40 Methylene Blue Controversies 36:20 SSRI Safety Considerations 37:47 High Dose Clinical Use 38:27 Versus CoQ10, PQQ and Creatine 41:29 Hyperbaric Oxygen Basics 43:29 Acute vs Chronic Protocols 46:01 Chamber Pressure Differences 47:17 Health Optimization Medicine Explained 49:55 Trauma and the Sympathetic Loop 55:26 Vagus Nerve Tools and Limits 01:02:54 Performance, Recovery and Closing Insights If you want practical, natural strategies to balance your hormones, heal your gut, boost your energy, and slow aging, don't miss The Dr. Josh Axe Show.
