Summary

Read by the author.

From the creator of Bulletproof coffee and the best-selling author of Head Strong and The Bulletproof Diet comes a plan to bypass plateaus and ‘up’ your game at every age.

Dave Asprey suffered countless symptoms of ageing as a young man, which sparked a lifelong burning desire to grow younger with each birthday. For more than 20 years, he has been on a quest to find innovative, science-backed methods to upgrade human biology and redefine the limits of the mind, body, and spirit. The results speak for themselves. Now in his 40s, Dave is smarter, happier, and more fit and successful than ever before.

In Super Human, he shows how this is level of health and performance possible for all of us. While we assume we will peak in middle age and then decline, Asprey’s research reveals there is another way. It is possible to make changes on the sub-cellular level to dramatically extend life span. And the tools to live longer also give you more energy and brainpower right now.

The answers lie in Dave’s Seven Pillars of Ageing that contribute to degeneration and disease while diminishing your performance in the moment. Using simple interventions – like diet, sleep, light, exercise, and little-known but powerful hacks from ozone therapy to proper jaw alignment, you can decelerate cellular ageing and supercharge your body’s ability to heal and rejuvenate.

A self-proclaimed human guinea pig, Asprey arms listeners with practical advice to maximise their lives at every age with his signature mix of science-geek wonder, candour, and enthusiasm. Getting older no longer has to mean decline. Now it’s an opportunity to become Super Human.

Critic reviews

"The field of anti-aging is filled with discoveries that teach us our body can heal from within and slow its own destruction. In Super Human, Dave Asprey masterfully reveals his formula for immortality and how to achieve super health." (William W Li, MD, author of New York Times best seller, Eat to Beat Disease)

"We are seeing that we can prevent and even reverse diseases of old aging, such as dementia, with diet, lifestyle, and targeted, precision therapeutics. Dave’s Super Human provides a role model for the successful aging of our minds and bodies." (Dale Bredesen, MD, author of New York Times best seller, The End of Alzheimer’s)

"Looking and feeling older is now optional with Super Human.... I’m growing YOUNGER because of my Bulletproof choices!" (JJ Virgin, author of New York Times best seller, The Virgin Diet)

Overall not bad.

Very inspiring until you realise some of the info and advice allegedly backed by research and science doesn't really agree with the medical study... Or is circumstantial at best. You also can't shake of the feeling that you're being advised by professional salesman rather than devoted researcher or aspiring scientist. Once you hear a fact or two that is not scientifically true suddenly the whole book loses its credibility. And it's a shame, because Superhuman is a really good read/listen. Nonetheless have a go and make up your own mind.

Not much that's new

If you've read any of Dave Aspreys previous books, then you've heard 95% of this before - it's a rehash of his prior work.

I had high hopes for an innovative new book, what I got felt like a "best of" compilation.

Waste of 8+ hours

Whilst there are a few interesting facts, 80% of the book is a mishmash of what drugs, potions and gadgets the author uses to live to 180 (the number gets repeated about every 5 mins). The usual theme is “I’ve tried x and felt amazing so I’ve been eating/ injecting/ inhaling it ever since, including pumping ozone up his ass, my personal favourite. The most beneficial anti ageing techniques like exercise and social interactions barely get a mention and lots of his arguments are very one sided, e.g. the “vegan trap”.

More of the same but still great

I have read Dave’s other books and really enjoyed them but this book was like a summary of all others. I didn’t get anything new from it.

Awful

I'm amazed this book gets published when the author suggests using pharmaceuticals that have not got approval for safe use. He also confesses as to 'probably' having the most stem cell injections ever.
On top of this the narration is very fast and not an easy listen. Keep clear.

more anecdotal than science-based

More anecdotal than science-based! I was expecting more science results than "I tried...". some topics doesn't have solid evidence

Struggling to finish

A good book, informative but so boring at times. I'm always wondering how many pills is he actually drinking a day as there were so many he said he's using...
Informative though and a different approach but too heavy and boring at times.

The best book ever narrated by a shirtless dude

This is Dave Asprey's best book yet.

If this is the first book by Dave Asprey that you've ever listened to, then you are in for a treat. After this book, you will want more.

He keeps the information very clear and also interesting. I was able ró keep up and focus all the way through. Whereas with "Headstrong" I had to listen to it 5 times till it started to sink in.

Dave narrates the book himself which I thought was a bad idea at first, but actually, it worked out to be really inspiring. The only negative to Dave reading the book himself is that I got hooked and I'm after binge listening to the book all day which has affected my work and sleep. (I just wish he had broken script a couple of times).

There is some information that has also been said in previous books but that's cool because the rephrasing and augmented descriptions have really helped me grasp it better.

Finally, it's the first time I've come across in an audiobook that has given me a solid lead on how to heal my macular degeneration.
