SOBRE ESTE EPISÓDIO
Andrew Herr is the Founder of FlyKitt, a breakthrough travel protocol designed for high performers—from the battlefield to the boardroom—who need to function at peak capacity no matter the conditions.
Whether leading teams, competing at elite levels, or making mission-critical decisions, showing up sharp after a flight is essential. Yet among the 10 million+ people who travel every day, few understand the toll flying takes on the body. Jet lag, inflammation, dehydration, gut issues, joint pain, poor metabolism, and brain fog are real, long-lasting risks that quietly erode performance.
FlyKitt is changing that.
Used by elite special operations forces, Navy SEALs, Fortune 500 executives, and professional athletes in the NBA, NFL, and Olympics, the system is built on more than 1,000 experiments aimed at neutralizing travel stress and protecting performance. Its data-driven supplement and timing protocol has shown a 94% reduction in travel symptoms, with 85% of users reporting improved circadian rhythm alignment.
Andrew's innovation stems from his career leading human performance efforts for the U.S. military, where he specialized in optimizing warfighters to perform under extreme pressure. He's also tested his limits personally, completing the Spartan Ultra World Championship in Iceland's brutal winter—twice.

Best Quotes
• "You're getting flavors of decompression and altitude sickness because of the rapidity with which this is happening."
• "What I'm saying is the inflammation plus the circadian shift is why jet lag is so bad."
• "All these things are, you know, gut inflammation we know causes these things. Brain fog. We know that when we're inflamed the actual immune cells and these cytokines, immune compounds transit into the brain and change the way the brain metabolizes energy so you feel more tired."
• "So all these things are secondary to this flight induced inflammation. And then if you have circadian shifts on top of it and you're flying long distance, then it prevents you from resetting your circadian rhythm."
• "The air filtration on planes actually quite good. Now they, there's all kinds of problems with the air on planes that I'm not gonna get into around like bleed air coming in through the jet engines, you get exhaust in the plane."
• "You know, my, my scientific assessment is safe. We do only recommend rates and older, but for younger we have a fly Kitt Junior where we make it with gummies."
