In this episode of The Strive Show, Dr. Jake Grinaker and Dr. Brian Dozark identify three main reasons people struggle to sleep: stress and late-night technology use (especially phones and blue light), diet and substances (caffeine, alcohol, and large late meals), and a hyper-stimulated nervous system linked to upper cervical spine issues.

In this episode of The Strive Show, Dr. Jake Grinaker and Dr. Brian Dozark explore whether common treatments are masking symptoms or addressing the root causes of health issues. They discuss examples like fevers, fibromyalgia, IBS, back pain, and the risks of short-term fixes such as medications and injections.

The hosts encourage changing how we think about symptoms, finding the "why" behind them, prioritizing natural solutions when appropriate, and seeking the right care—even if that means a referral to another practitioner.
