Summary

From the creator of Bulletproof Coffee and author of the best-selling The Bulletproof Diet comes a revolutionary plan to upgrade your brainpower - in two weeks or less. 

For the last decade, Silicon Valley entrepreneur Dave Asprey has worked with world-renowned doctors and scientists to uncover the latest, most innovative methods for making humans perform better - a process known as "biohacking". In his first book, The Bulletproof Diet, he shared his biohacking tips for taking control of your own biology. Now, in Head Strong, Asprey shows listeners how to biohack their way to sharper, smarter, faster, more resilient brains. 

Imagine feeling like your mind is operating at its clearest and sharpest and being able - possibly for the first time in your life - to do more in less time. What if it suddenly became easier to do the very hardest things you do? Or if you could feel 100 percent confident about your intellect and never again fear being the person in the room who just isn't smart enough or can't remember something important?

In Head Strong, Asprey shows us that all of this is possible - and more. Using his simple lifestyle modifications (or "hacks") to take advantage of how the structure of your brain works, you will learn how to take your mental performance to the next level. Combining the latest findings in neuroscience and neurobiology with a hacker-inspired "get it done now" perspective, Asprey offers a program structured around key areas of brain performance that will help you: 

  • Power the brain with exactly what it needs to perform at its best all day long 
  • Eliminate the sources of "kryptonite", both nutritional and environmental, that make the brain slower 
  • Supercharge the cellular powerhouses of your brain, the mitochondria, to eliminate cravings and turn up mental focus 
  • Reverse inflammation to perform better right now, then stay sharp and energized well into your golden years 
  • Promote neuron growth to enhance processing speed and reinforce new learning - hotwiring your brain for success 

Asprey's easy to follow two-week program offers a detailed plan to supercharge brain performance, including which foods to eat and which ones to avoid, how to incorporate the right kinds of physical activity into your day, a detox protocol for your home and body, meditation and breathing for performance, recommended brain-boosting supplements, and how to adjust the lighting in your home and workspace to give your brain the quality light it thrives on. 

A better brain - and a happier, easier, more productive life - is within reach. You just need to get Head Strong

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your Library section along with the audio.

Total snake oil

This book is bordering on the absurd. Like most people I'm sure, I read it thinking it might contain some real insight, but what it actually is a series of the bleeding obvious all leading to the sale of the authors own branded products, at least one of which has been revealed to be a total scam.

In the spirit of hacking, I'll read the book for you and save 22 hours of your life.

Eat lots of vegetables and organic meat and butter.
Sleep well.
Avoid toxins - like trans fats.
Exercise.
Meditate.
Drink the author's ridiculously priced coffee and snake oil liquid.
That's it, honestly.

If you didn't know any of the above already, there's little hope left. Check out the authors ridiculous claims for his own brand of toxin free coffee and the proven mumbo jumbo he spouts about it on the internet - Joe rogan for example, and then see if you can take much of the rest of this seriously.

Put you to sleep!

The narrator is the worst I've ever heard. The pace and tone would put you to sleep. In short its a marketing platform to buy the guy's products. The book tries to promote a healthy lifestyle but the constant message is Bulletproof products are the only ones you need, everything else will make you sick or won't help. Happy to return the book.

Excellent launch point into Biohacking!

This book is an incredible resource for anyone interested in getting optimal performance from their body and brain.

I see this as being a user's guide to your neurology - how to upgrade your brain.

Thanks Dave for being the guinea-pig with all of this and showing the way forward for the rest of us.

I've started applying some of the suggestions and feel a difference already. I feel so good!

A must read

This is something everyone should consider reading. I will be using the knowledge learned from this book. It's opened my eyes to ask more of the right questions starting from the first chapter. Enjoy

How to increase Anxiety and Paranoia

If it's not what we eat, drink and breathe that will destroy us, it is the fungus growing in our homes and invading our clothes and possessions.
We are all doomed!
I felt a sense of hopelessness and helplessness as I delved further into this book.
Do I really want to turn my life into one long self obsession.
Is it not time to start blessing the food we eat and appreciating our surroundings?
Have a holiday and avoid this book.

enjoyed the reading

in the beginning I felt I am listing to bulletproof diet again but then I found few extra tips and materials that was good. Generally I think a book worth reading... Maybe not following it all but choosing what works for you.
I applied on a lot of dave's advices and it worked for me like magic

Interesting but...

I found some of the content interesting, so it probably is worth listening to, and there are some useful principles which can be gleaned from the book regarding nutrition and lifestyle. However, it was very technical, a lot of the theories seemed quite extreme and in many respects this book is likely to be a source of considerable constant paranoia, which, ironically, seems unlikely to help mental well-being.
