153: Hacks for a Better Body, Sharper Brain, and More Willpower with Dave Asprey - Founder of Bulletproof Coffee

<p>I know you are all going to love today’s guest, Dave Asprey. Not only will you be in awe of his transformation story, but he shares so many useful tips and tools to help you gain more energy AND boost both the health of your mind and body.</p> <p>A successful Silicon Valley tech entrepreneur and the founder of Bulletproof Coffee, Dave once weighed 300 lbs. and even though he spent 1.5 hours at the gym daily and ate a super low-calorie diet, he couldn’t budge the scale. He felt old in his young body. It wasn’t until he decided to cut sugar from his diet (and inadvertently lower his carb intake) that he lost 50 lbs. It took him another 7-8 years while biohacking and figuring out his body to lose the other 50.</p> <p>Since that time and with an innate sense of curiosity, Dave has discovered and created techniques, and keys to taking control of and improving a person’s biochemistry, body and mind so they work in unison, helping one execute at levels far beyond what is expected without burning out, getting sick, or allowing stress to control decisions.</p> <p>I learned and related to so much of this amazingly educational conversation and I hope you do as well. Dave’s determination and drive to discover more and more about the human body is so inspiring. I’m giddy just thinking about where his work will take us in the years to come.</p> <p>Happy Listening!</p> <p>--</p> <h3>Questions Asked in This Episode</h3> <ul> <li>When you had your huge transformation, what was the biggest thing that clicked for you compared to what wasn’t working before?</li> <li>When you changed your diet, did you have doubts that it wouldn’t work?</li> <li>What is a common health misconception that you hear all the time?</li> <li>How long does it take to see results?</li> <li>What do you recommend to increase willpower?</li> <li>Do you think it’s possible to overcome different genetic problems?</li> <li>What is the toughest thing you’ve had to let go of in order to fulfill your dreams and mission?</li> </ul> <h3>In This Episode You Will Lear
