Nobody has done more to popularise biohacking than Dave Asprey. In fact, he invented the word biohacking. A big inspiration and teacher to me, it was a great honor for it to come full circle and have Dave on the show to talk about his biohacking journey and where he sees the field going. We get into the lessons from his new book Smarter Not Harder and Dave pulls no punches with his view on accountability, responsibility and plant-based diets.<br/><br/>Over the last two decades Dave Asprey, “The Father of Biohacking”, has worked 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. Dave has personally spent over $2 million taking control of his own biology – pushing the bounds of human possibility all in the name of science evolution and revolution.<br/><br/>The creator of the Bulletproof Diet, and innovator of Bulletproof Coffee, Collagen Protein supplements and many more advances in commercial wellness products, Dave’s mission is to empower the entire globe with information and knowledge that unlocks the Super Human in everyone at any age.
