Summary
Back again is the king of biohacking, Dave Asprey, the Bulletproof Executive. Since Dave was last on my show, Bulletproof coffee has blown up, Dave's churned out a few more books, and he's put together a biohacking conference in San Francisco. Not too shabby for a few month's work.
I'll be presenting on how to improve mental performance with music (following-up on my first book, The Musical Brain). If you'd like to come biohack with the coolest toys nerds like us have ever seen, check out the biohacking conference here.
In today's show, Dave and I cover:
- How you can improve your mental performance with smart drugs (nootropics)
- The surprising foods Abel’s immune system does not tolerate according to the Mediator Release Test
- Why Bulletproof Coffee is brain food
- How the Bulletproof Diet reduces exposure to inflammatory toxins
- And why eating sushi – with the rice – dipped in a big tub of guacamole and covered in salt is a great idea
