Biohacking is all the rage, but if you’re not doing it correctly, you could wind up causing more harm than good. Overexercising, undereating, and eating too many superfoods can have the reverse effect as intended, causing nutrient deficiencies, weight gain, and cortisol depletion. Sometimes less is more, and by toggling our biohacking tools at the right time and with the right intensity, we can get closer to the results we want.

I’m excited to sit down with my good friend, Dave Asprey, to talk about how to upgrade our metabolism, stress response, strength, and brain health while radically reducing the amount of effort it takes to get there.

Dave Asprey is an entrepreneur, the Father of Biohacking, and the leading voice in the movement to take control of your own biology. He’s hosted over 1,000 episodes of “The Human Upgrade Podcast” (formerly Bulletproof Radio) for more than a decade. He also hosts the world’s largest and longest-running biohacking conference. Dave works with world-renowned doctors, researchers, scientists, and global mavericks to uncover the latest, most innovative methods, techniques, and products for enhancing mental and physical performance. He’s a New York Times bestselling author of multiple books, creator of Danger Coffee and Bulletproof Coffee, and owner and CEO of Upgrade Labs, Human Upgrade Centers.
