Dopamine is one of the most important horemones in the human body. It provides a balance in the brain between pain and pleasure, and rewards success. This was very useful as hunter gatherers worked tirelessly to feed themselves and their tribes. In today's overstimulated world though, our brains are getting constant dopamine hits from the apps on our smartphones, the sugar in our food, and the instant access to any pleasure you could imagine. In this podcast we examine the science of what this does to our brains, and ask how to achieve balance in the age of indulgance.
