Qué es la hormesis y porqué te interesa

Hace unos 15 días me lié la manta a la cabeza (figurativamente) y decidí, aprovechando que en verano hace calor 🔥 (y normalmente con bochorno), empezar a ducharme con agua fría: lo que he agradecido bastante, la verdad. Peeerooo…. ¿Continuaré con ello una vez las temperaturas 🧊🌡🧊  bajen? No lo sé, pero mientras, te cuento que es la hormesis y porqué deberías considerarla ⤵️ La hormesis es un…

Hormesis: El Secreto del Crecimiento Profesional y Personal

Hoy quiero compartir con vosotros un concepto fascinante que podría transformar vuestro enfoque hacia el crecimiento personal y profesional: La Hormesis. 🌱 #Hormesis #CrecimientoPersonal #Productividad #DesarrolloProfesional 🌟

¿Qué es la Hormesis? La hormesis es un fenómeno biológico que se refiere a la respuesta adaptativa de un organismo a un agente estresante o a una dosis baja de un agente tóxico, lo que resulta en un efecto beneficioso en lugar de perjudicial. En otras palabras, la hormesis describe el proceso por el cual un organismo se vuelve más resistente y saludable cuando se expone a dosis bajas de un…

While dressing, I catch a wave of relief, a chariot of well-being I will ride the rest of the day. I wonder if it’s purely psychological—or maybe I’m experiencing hormesis, when the body adapts to stress in healthy ways. Over the past decade, scientists have increasingly found that certain forms of pain and agitation, in moderate amounts, trigger benefits for mental and physical health. Researched examples include cardio exercise, weightlifting, ice and steam baths, high-heat saunas, fasting from food, eating spicy peppers, and even holding your breath.

Only a masochist with unlimited free time would pursue every painful option. How should busy adults prioritize them? Which forms of hormesis actually boost health, and how?

Why hormesis works

Pain starts with stress, and stress shows up at a cellular level. When humans and other lifeforms get stressed out, the balance of oxygen in our cells gets disrupted. In response, the mitochondria—bean-shaped structures that supply cells with energy—ramp up their efforts to help with overcoming the challenge.

In the process, the mitochondria spit out a waste product, called reactive oxygen species. With persistent exposure to toxic stressors like cigarette smoke, heavy metals, or chronic emotional strain, this waste may weaken the cells and cause proteins to misfold, which could eventually cause disease.

Hormetic stress, however, is more manageable. We bend but don’t break—partly thanks to a protein called Nrf-2...

Podcast #941: How to Avoid Death by Comfort

Nietzsche’s maxim, “What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger,” isn’t just a sound philosophical principle. It’s also a certifiable physiological phenomenon; toxins and stressors that could be deadly in large doses, actually improve health and resilience in smaller, intermittent ones. The ironic thing, my guest points out, is that it’s the fact that we’re not getting enough of this sublethal stress these days that’s really doing us in. Paul Taylor is a former British Royal Navy Aircrew Officer, an exercise physiologist, nutritionist, and neuroscientist, and the author of Death by Comfort: How Modern Life is Killing Us and What We Can Do About It. Today on the show, Paul discusses the science of hormesis, how small doses of intermittent stress can make us more resistant to chronic stress, and why you need to embrace what Paul calls “discomfort harvesting.” We talk about some now-familiar topics like fasting and cold and heat exposure with fresh inspiration as to how important they are to practice and how to do them effectively. We discuss how hot a sauna needs to be to get the benefits of heat exposure, Paul’s suggestion for how to make an ice bath on the cheap, what may be the single best type of food to eat to improve your gut’s microbiome, a form of fasting that’s got anti-cancer benefits but is so accessible it won’t even feel like fasting, what supplement to take to mitigate the effects of a bad night’s sleep, and much more. We end our conversation with how to use what Paul calls a “ritual board” to stick with your healthy habits and resist the “soft underbelly” of modern life.

“Reducing huge consumption of polyphenol containing plants down to reasonable -lets’ say 5 servings a day down to 5 a week- might be of more benefit than the jump from zero to one a day.”

favorite word?

I think it is a tie between hormesis and gentrification. They are both super specific phenomena for whom people have complex relationships with coined in just one word.

I'm also partial to code-smell, although those are two words.
