Il Cervello d'Inverno

Episode Description

In questa puntata esploriamo la neuroscienza dell’inverno: perché il cervello cambia quando arriva il freddo, come la luce influenza umore ed energia, e cosa succede davvero in aree come amigdala, prefrontale e ippocampo. Un viaggio scientifico ma leggero tra melatonina impazzita, serotonina in vacanza e piccoli trucchi per stare meglio nella stagione più buia dell’anno — il tutto accompagnato da un tocco di ironia e dalla magia dell’inverno.

Music: Mercuziopianist.
