In this episode, I systematically dismantle Huberman's sauna health claims that he makes on the Lex Fridman podcast. In particular, I show that he overstates the strength of the epidemiological evidence and show that nobody has really been able to address the criticisms made of it in the scientific literature. I question whether heat shock proteins really confer a longevity phenotype. In fact, I show that they might actually undermine longevity. I then question the relationship between dynorphin and heat shock proteins and whether what has been claimed has ever been shown. I then provide several pieces of evidence that suggest that animals living in higher temperatures actually have reduced lifespan. On every relevant point, I cannot see how Huberman makes the claims that he does--even as he makes them with an absolute confidence.
