Pet health

Maintaining pet health involves several factors, as discussed by Andrew Huberman on the Huberman Lab:

1. Morning Sunlight: Just like humans, pets also benefit from exposure to morning sunlight. This helps set their circadian rhythms, which involve 24-hour cycles that regulate various physiological processes. Ensuring pets get exposure to natural light can promote their overall health and well-being. Andrew Huberman mentions how he practices this with his own dog, Costello 1.

2. Social Connection: Pets, like dogs, can enhance serotonin levels for their owners, fostering feelings of well-being and social connection. This not only benefits the pets but also helps mitigate the negative effects of chronic stress in humans. This bond can be deeply influential in promoting mental health for both the pet and the owner 2.

These practices underscore the importance of integrating natural elements and social interactions into your pets' routines to support their health.
