Publisher's 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.

Bulletproof!

Love the knowledge and the tools to kick more ass! Do your body and brain a favor and get this book! Everyone can benefit from this information, I hope you check it out.

Great book! Worth listening to the audio and purchasing the hard copy!

This is a great book to have on audible and hard copy. I loved it! I’m purchasing the hard copy so that I can have all of the recipes written out and to better follow the 2-week plan! Thanks for the great insights! I also listened to Bulletproof on audible. Head Strong was great because it gave me simple takeaways at the end of each chapter to apply/put into action immediately! I live in NYC so the simplicity of having 3-4 takeaways and a detailed but doable plan to follow is helpful!

Awesome Information

The info in this book is incredible. I usually don’t read “health” books on the topic of brain energy and mitochondria , so I thoroughly enjoyed!!

I’ve already put some things into practice and I feel the benefits.

I got this as a Deal of the Day, but a hard copy would be good as well since there are recipes.

Great information

I have been a listener of Dave’s podcast for several years and am so grateful to have this information readily available. Well researched and documented. Excellent resource.

David is a genious

I appreciate the lengths he goes to give us all he has researched. Yes he plugs in his products but the least we can do is buy it so he can continue his work. He has made my life so much better over the last 6 years.

Awesome book

This book contains a ridiculous amount of useful information. I feel smarter already! I am especially interested in upgrading the lighting I am exposes to!

Tremendously Insightful

One of the most insightful books I have listened to. While there is a lot of self promotion it is clear that the author has invested his life into this mission and created a business around that. Regardless the content is more in depth than the majority of health orientated books out there.

Crucial information for thriving in 2017

Just buy it and read it. Most hacks are simple to implement, and Dave offers more advanced hacks for those who want to go there. Most hacks cost nothing. Excellent!!!!!

useful and timily hacks for the brain

great for students, business owners.
for those who do not settle and like to pick them boundaries.

Biohacks

So excited to listen again and write more notes. This book has so much great info.
