I sat down with Andrew Herr to unpack what flying really does to your body and how to fix it with simple, science-based steps. Andrew has coached fighter pilots, Navy SEALs, and busy executives, and he built a travel system that treats jet lag like a solvable problem, not a life sentence.We break down why pressure changes and lower oxygen in the cabin drive inflammation, why that brain fog and puffy feeling show up even on short hops, and how circadian rhythm, light, and meal timing fit into the picture. We get into domestic versus international travel, when you only need a “mini” protocol, and when you need the full reset. You will hear exactly how to set up sleep the first night, when to use light or block it, how to time magnesium, omega-3s, and melatonin, why small protein-first meals beat grazing on junk, and why fasting can help some people but not everyone.You will also learn how to read your own signals, why some frequent fliers think they are fine when they are not, and how to test whether something actually helps you. If you want to land clear-headed, sleep that first night, and feel like yourself again, this episode gives you a plan you can run on your very next trip.Key topicsWhy flights trigger inflammation, even on short routesCircadian rhythm basics, light timing, and sleep setupDomestic vs international playbook, what changes and whyProtein-first eating on travel days, hydration, and walking after mealsWhen fasting helps and when it backfiresBlue light blocking, battery-powered alarm clocks, and a bedroom setup after you landHow to test if a tool or supplement is working for youWhere Andrew’s timing protocol came from and how the app personalizes it without guessworkTimeline Mitopure Gummies: GET 20% Off Now! 👇https://timeline.com/andres🎯 Apply for Health Optimization Coaching🔗 https://coaching.knowyourphysio.org/video1729359042808Resources mentionedFlyKit travel protocols and refills: flykit.comBlue light blocking glasses that block high percentages at nightOmega-3s with balanced EPA and DHAMelatonin and magnesium timing for first-night sleepSupport the show
