Your Memories & Emotions Impact Immune Status

About this video

In this short teaser, Huberman previews his episode with immunologist Dr. Max Krummel. Huberman says Krummel shares emerging evidence that recalling a memory associated with a strong positive or negative emotion can recreate in the body the immune status present when that event happened. Huberman argues this is more than feelings returning: the particular constellation of immune cells can be recreated, with large implications for how nervous and immune systems interact.

Key takeaways

• Huberman says Krummel shares emerging evidence that recalling an emotional memory can recreate its original immune status.
• Huberman presents memory, emotion and immune state as linked bodily states, not separate systems.
