065: Dave Asprey Hates Kale – here’s why
World-famous biohacker Dave Asprey is back on The Dr. Gundry Podcast.
And this time, he’s got a brand new book to talk about. It’s called Super Human, and it is absolutely PACKED with some of the most cutting-edge science about longevity out there (and makes a fantastic companion to The Longevity Paradox).
On this episode, Dave and I chat about the dangers of heavy metals, the energy-enhancing benefits of a good night’s sleep (and how to get it), and why bloodletting (yes, bloodletting) may not have been such a crazy technique after all.
So if you’re interested in how YOU can live to 180, or if you just want to learn some tips for living a longer, healthier life, then don’t miss out on this episode.
