281: How to: function when you’re not getting enough sleep

by Dr. Steven Gundry | Nov 21, 2023

You’ve probably heard the saying “We only use a fraction of our brain’s potential”. And it’s TRUE. But how exactly can we access those hidden corners of our minds?

In this episode, I welcome back Jim Kwik, who has dedicated years to exploring this very idea and stands as a living testimony to its validity. Jim has evolved into the go-to brain coach for Hollywood’s elite, billionaire CEOs, and even global institutions. He’s also the author of the bestseller ‘Limitless’ – now in its extended edition, set to reshape our understanding of cognition.

We dive into what your unique ‘brain animal code’ says about your learning style, how to never draw a blank on a name again, and the top foods to boost your brainpower.
