Hi there. Welcome to the Fat Burning Man Show. I'm your host, Abel James, and today I'm very excited

to be here with Mr. Dave Asprey and Army of Bulletproofexec.com, which just reached the status of being

one of the top 100,000 websites on Earth in less than 15 months of being in existence. So pretty cool stuff.

Dave is a Silicon Valley investor, computer security expert, and entrepreneur who spent 15 years and

over a quarter million dollars to hack his own biology. He upgraded his IQ by about 20 points,

maybe more we don't really know, but he's a pretty smart guy.

Let's leave it at that.

He lowered his biological age and also lost, most interestingly to me anyway, 100 pounds without using calories or exercise.

Financial Times calls him a biohacker who takes self-quantification to the extreme of self-experimentation and his writing's been

published by the New York Times and Fortune, and he's presented at Wharton Kellogg, University

of California, and Singularity University.

He sounds like my kind of guy.

And actually, Allison and I got to spend some quality time with Dave and talk coffee and

bacon while we were at paleo

FX. He's one heck of a cool guy in Army is too. Today we're going to be talking about how not

to burn yourself with ice, the benefits of caffeine as a performance enhancing drug, why

mycotoxins might be making you fat, and why exercising might not be a very good idea

if you're not getting a whole lot of sleep.

So without further ado, let's hang out with Dave and Army.

So it was awesome hanging out with you guys at Paleo Effects,

and I was glad you could make it to Austin.

Your site is getting pretty huge, pretty quickly, so congrats for that.
