There is nothing more essential to our health and well-being than breathing. Yet, as a species, humans have lost the ability to breathe correctly, with grave consequences. Journalist James Nestor travels the world to figure out what went wrong and how to fix it. The answers aren’t found in pulmonology labs, as we might expect, but in the muddy digs of ancient burial sites, secret Soviet facilities, New Jersey choir schools, and the smoggy streets of São Paulo. Nestor tracks down men and women exploring the hidden science behind ancient breathing practices.

Like many doctors and nutrition experts, bestselling author Dr. Steven Gundry has long endorsed the ketogenic diet - a style of eating that heavily restricts carbohydrate intake to make the body burn fat for fuel. Because ketosis offers a variety of health benefits, including weight loss, reduced risk of illness, and enhanced energy, Dr. Gundry believed his patients’ efforts to adhere to the challenging regimen was worthwhile. That is, until his research uncovered a shocking truth: We’ve gotten keto all wrong.

In Mitochondria and the Future of Medicine, naturopathic doctor Lee Know tells the epic story of mitochondria - the widely misunderstood and often-overlooked powerhouses of our cells. The legendary saga began over two billion years ago, when one bacterium entered another without being digested, which would evolve to create the first mitochondrion. Since then, for life to exist beyond single-celled bacteria, it's the mitochondria that have been responsible for this life-giving energy.

Great material, poor narration
The material is very good and well laid out. On the other hand, the narration is horrible. Mono-tonous /hypnotic voice and many mistakes in pronunciation of medical terms. For a book like this the narrator should have been provided a list of terms that needed to be pronounced correctly. I can accept a few mispronunciations but they are all the way through the book; has become a distraction from the material. Agree with others that it would be better if Ben Greenfield read it. I will likely return it and purchase the hard copy as a reference book.

The narrator is the worst!
The book itself, so far(I'm 6 hours in), is very informative. I don't think I would have gotten through it in paper form, as it is very technical.
The narration, however, is horrible, and making it increasinglydifficult to get through. I have to give credit to the narrator; this is a 40 hour book. But I have never listened to an audio book that was so poorly edited. The audio book is riddled with gaps, repeating, even throat clearing, gasping for breath, and gibberish noises by the narrator. In addition, trying to follow along is difficult, because the narrator mispronounces soooo many words. It is extremely frustrating.

How do you access the content he references to?
Throughout the book he says you can get the notes/videos/ illustrations Ect. If you go to boundless book.com/18? Or I think that is what he says. But the books website requires the receipt number of the book you purchased in order to access the extra content. How do you access it if you purchased the audio book through audible????

great book. sketchy pronunciations at best
A great book well organized perfect amount of detail and other resources. The only problem with listening to the book was the sketchy pronunciations and blatently incorrect pronunciations. For example "baggles" instead of bagels.
Someone should have "proof read" the recording for these obvious and innumerable flaws of pronunciation. Aside from that the narrator did a fine job.
l feel publisher owes me at least a kindle copy of the book so I can verify what the author intended.
Again I loved the book and have listened to it more than once. But, still wonder how so many prounciations ended up in a published work.

Distracted by terrible mispronounciation
Should have looked for a Reader who has some medical background or training. So far, the info is good but when so much of it isn’t articulated correctly, it’s super distracting. Can’t even say ‘glial’ cells or ‘epinephrine’ correctly.
Which also leads to the information sounding less credible. The words should be enunciated correctly else the material fall flat.
Sorry to the reader. You have a beautiful voice. Should have probably listened to how to pronounce all these medical/biology/physiology terms in advance.
Makes for a poor listening experience.

Narrator is horrible
I love the content of this book and I love Ben Greenfield’s work, but I can’t tell you how terrible this narrator is. He miss pronounces so many important medical words, and supplement words it’s irritating to listen to. Audible should have had been read his own book If he was willing to do it. Or at least have someone who knew the words so they didn’t mess them up so bad. I’m sorry narrator, you should’ve done your medical research and learned how to say those words!

biohacker's bible
single most impactful health book and I've read quite a few. Really dwarves Genius Life which is good info but is very basic level and is missing a lot to be honest. have only implemented a fraction (earthing, oil pulling, gravity boots, trampoline, dozens more..) of what's contained yet have experienced a personal evolution catapult or portal even. pronunciations absolutely fine could not imagine not listening to this comprehensive monstrosity. if you've read many others like me this will likely reintroduce many key concepts and familiar names but will also introduce many interesting new ideas, habits, practices to explore

Fitness "guru" pretends to be an expert
I am a personal trainer, I hold a degree in exercise science and a masters in clinical exercise science.
This book is nothing but a compendium of fitness flavoured bullshit, this guy seems to uncritically believe everything he's ever heard. My favourite quote from the parts I managed to listen to before I gave up under the strain of too much bullshit:
"If you want to activate the right hand side of your brain you should spend x minutes breathing through your right nostril."
For a start left-brain right-brain stuff has been thoroughly debunked, also any child pointing at an anatomical picture of the airways can see that it doesn't matter which nostril you breath through, the air is still going to your lungs. So couldn't possibly affect which side of the brain the oxygen gets to.
This is just one example of the absolute swill this idiot is peddling.
This book is £50+ on amazon in hardback, thank goodness I just used a single credit to get the audio book, because I would be FUCKING FURIOUS if I had spent that much!

Chapter 15 negates anything that the author tries to put across by saying that all bodies get old , all athletes slow down etc ( we know that ) To me , after listening to that part of the chapter , it felt like what’s the point if we are going to wither and die regardless.
Chapter 17 about symmetry, why go on about your computer? It just came across like a promotional advert for the manufacturer.
All in all this book has good points but it also has parts that , to me , are un necessary.

Great content,poor narration!
Ben why have you not narrated your masterpiece? I know it takes time to narrate but would have made the book perfect and easily led to a Five Star review. Very surprising as you are such a good narrator who has an ability to bring content to life! Please narrate this book as the current narrator has mispronounced many words and frequently displays a lack of understanding of the content.

One very long advert
This book is packed with products and supplements for you to buy it's annoying. It does not go 5 minutes without giving you yet another thing to buy. Obviously the author is earning more from the adverts than the book.
Any useful information is obtained from youtube rather than research papers.
Annoyingly annoying!

Exceptional piece of work
A truly comprehensive and exceptional piece of work Ben. Worth the time investment and no doubt I'll be returning to this audio and the hardback for many years to come. Great narration James.

To complicated book for the “normal” person.
A good book but way to complicated methods and terms. Can recommend it if your hard core about life hacks.

Such BS
It turns out the solutions are to buy the supplements he sells. The book is mostly a sales pitch.

The Be all and end all
This book covers everything you could imagine in regards to human optimization. I highly recommend the audible version COUPLED with purchasing the hard copy to dog ear and highlight pages to easily refer back to.

This book is changing my life style and am getting healthier. Amazing book that requires time to digest and apply to daily life. I prefer paper book for this one.

Not for everyone
For someone who is just interested but not fanatical about these topics, listening to this really feels like information overload. Not much in the way of personal stories that most people can relate to. It feels like listening to an ongoing listing of supplements and scientific terms.

Whyy?!!
Unfortunately the narrators gasps and heavy breathing killed it for me 1 chapter in. Apart from that, it seems like a great book! I will definitely buy the soft copy instead.
