Huberman Lab Clips(@HLPClips):A Nobel laureate chews 5 Nicorettes an hour to focus: - Nicotine binds the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor, the one tied to attention and alertness - He quit smoking over lung cancer but missed the focus it brought to his work - He thinks it offsets Parkinson's and Alzheimer's. That is theory, not scientifically supported yet - I tried Nicorette. Jittery, too far up in autonomic arousal, and I focus worse - Not a suggestion. Rely on it daily and you lose the window of focus that makes plasticity happen @hubermanlab
