Did this with ChatGPT[1] and it was quite helpful. That said using neetcode.io is what I found most helpful

We should definitely aim to do more studies that account for different people's conditions. As long as limitations are called out then it's fine imo.

A core reason why we need to do as many trials as possible for different interventions is that there's no one-size-fit all approach. I believe that some things will work for some and not others.

The bottleneck is in having a standard framework to validate the impact of interventions and understanding "whether or not it works for you" with empirical evidence (not anecdotes)

Your points are valid. However, I think it's important that we have standard frameworks for evaluating the impact of new interventions that aim to improve wellbeing (lifestyle changes, pills, neuromodulation)

The number of years a person has lived is a good metric but that means if we're trying something new now, we need to wait for X years before saying this has an effect. X in your example being someone reaching 120years.

We can't wait that long :)

Yeah, it depends but to answer the "does it help me" question, we need a framework to measure individual changes over multiple cold plunges.

Now that we have this. We can use it as a reference for future longitudinal studies with larger groups of people.

Agreed! I had a similar feeling of accomplishment when I did my first cold plunge too.

Some participants were doing cold plunges for the first time and others had done it before.

For participant 7 (who is an experienced cold plunger) we could see clear changes in their alpha power (dropping during the stroop task - attention & rising during resting state/cold plunge - being more relaxed)

yep, this trial was to see if there were any neural effects. We plan to do a follow up study with a much larger cohort of people and also over many days. This will provide extra context for solid conclusions

haha yep that's correct. Observing how a single individual responds over time along side other contextual metrics of behavior, productivity will help nail down "why a person responds well vs. doesn't"
