    Brain Fog Starts in Your Feet (Scientifically Proven)

    I lived with severe brain fog for 15 years. I couldn't focus, my words didn't come easily, and I spent a fortune trying to fix it from the top down...little worked until I realized the problem wasn't in my head—it was in my feet. In this video, I break down the scientifically proven connection between your feet, your circulation, and your cognitive decline. We cover how your brain requires a massive 20% of your body's oxygen to function, and why sitting at a desk all day weakens the calf muscles that act as a "second heart" to pump that oxygenated blood back up to your skull. I also explain how modern cushioned shoes act as sensory deprivation chambers, muffling the critical signals your feet send to your brain. This sensory lack forces your nervous system into a constant, low-level survival state that completely kills your executive function. You don't need another brain supplement to get your mental edge back. You need to fix your foundation. I share the exact barefoot walking and foot-strengthening protocols I used to lift the fog and restore my cognitive sharpness. Thank you to our sponsors!

  2. NASCAR Death, Steroid Olympics, Genetic Age Truth, and Gut Depression...

    NASCAR Death, Steroid Olympics, Genetic Age Truth, and Gut Depression...

    Enhanced Games Debut in Las Vegas as the First Openly Drug-Enabled "Biohacker Olympics"  The inaugural Enhanced Games took place in Las Vegas with more than 40 elite athletes competing openly while using performance-enhancing drugs, a $25 million prize pool, and a $1 million world record bonus on the table. Host Dave Asprey, who serves on the advisory board of the Enhanced Games, breaks down why this event is less a sports story than a cultural signal: enhancement has moved from underground to prime time, and the institutions that spent decades controlling that conversation through drug testing and bans watched it happen on a stage in Las Vegas. Dave explains why WADA has always existed to protect institutions rather than athletes, why bodily sovereignty is the real issue at the center of this debate, and what it means that even with full transparency about what every athlete was taking, the records didn't fall quite the way you'd expect. The Enhanced Games are the closest thing yet to a public beta test for extreme human enhancement, and the data it generates will matter far beyond sport.  Sources:  https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/7302319/2026/05/23/enhanced-games-athletes-world-records-doping-steroids/  https://www.npr.org/2026/05/24/nx-s1-5831252/enhanced-games-steroids-olympics-trump  https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cedpz1zqp8po  https://www.wusf.org/2026-05-24/the-enhanced-games-are-sunday-heres-what-to-know-about-the-controversial-event    Kyle Busch's Death Showed How Severe Pneumonia Can Rapidly Escalate Into Fatal Sepsis  NASCAR driver Kyle Busch died after severe pneumonia progressed into sepsis, a condition most people hear about but few truly understand until it is too late. Host Dave Asprey breaks down the biology of what happens when the immune system stops containing an infection and starts attacking the body systemwide, why sepsis can escalate from manageable symptoms to a life-threatening emergency faster than most people expect, and why even someone with great biomarkers and a dialed-in health stack can be blindsided by an acute inflammatory crisis. The warning signs matter: worsening breathing, confusion, rapid decline, and a sense that something is badly wrong are emergency symptoms, not signals to wait and see. Longevity is not only about optimization rituals. It includes knowing when your biology is in crisis and acting before the window closes.  Sources:  https://www.cnn.com/2026/05/24/health/what-is-sepsis-kyle-busch-wellness  https://www.cnn.com/2026/05/26/health/video/sepsis-kyle-busch-medical-care-lead-jake-tapper  https://www.michiganmedicine.org/health-lab/nascar-stars-death-shows-how-sepsis-can-kill-anyone-if-not-caught  https://www.huffpost.com/entry/what-is-sepsis-kyle-busch_l_6a15a9c1e4b0ddcc84641f34    Menin Loss in the Hypothalamus May Be a Central Switch That Accelerates Aging  New research in mice found that a protein called Menin in the hypothalamus may function as a central coordinator of biological aging across the whole body. When Menin declined, aging accelerated. When researchers restored it in older mice, memory improved and lifespan increased. Host Dave Asprey explains why this finding challenges the dominant wear-and-tear model of aging, what it means that the hypothalamus may be running a coordinated aging program rather than simply accumulating damage over time, and why a control-room model of aging points toward fundamentally different intervention strategies than chasing downstream symptoms like fatigue and memory loss. The research connects aging to neuroinflammation, which has direct implications for how biohackers think about hypothalamic health right now. It is still animal research, but the mechanistic case is strong and the implications for longevity science are significant.  Sources:  https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2026/05/260524012959.htm  https://www.news-medical.net/news/20230323/Menin-protein-protects-against-aging-and-cognitive-decline.aspx  https://www.eurekalert.org/news-releases/982100  https://www.eurekalert.org/news-releases/1116021    IL-6 Blockade With Tocilizumab Showed Early Promise for Treatment-Resistant Depression  A small pilot randomized trial tested tocilizumab, an anti-inflammatory drug that blocks IL-6 signaling, in people with difficult-to-treat depression and found remission rates of 54% versus 31% with placebo. Host Dave Asprey breaks down why this result reframes depression as an immune biology problem for a meaningful subset of patients rather than a purely neurochemical one, and why the same inflammatory pathway that drives joint destruction in rheumatoid arthritis is showing up in the brains of people who don't respond to antidepressants. The practical implication is not to seek out a biologic drug off-label. It is to recognize that persistent low mood, fatigue, and low resilience may warrant a deeper biological workup than standard screening provides, starting with IL-6, CRP, and a full inflammatory panel. The brain is downstream of the immune system more than most psychiatry has been willing to admit, and this trial is the clearest evidence yet of why that matters.  Sources:  https://www.bristol.ac.uk/news/2026/may/pilot-trial-suggests-anti.html  https://www.eurekalert.org/news-releases/1128678  https://www.medicalxpress.com/news/2026-05-trial-anti-inflammatory-drug-difficult.html  https://clinicaltrials.gov/    New Science Paper Says Intrinsic Human Lifespan May Be About 50% Heritable  A paper published in Science argues that the genetic contribution to human lifespan is roughly 50% heritable, far higher than previous estimates, once researchers correct for deaths caused by accidents, infections, and external causes unrelated to aging biology. Host Dave Asprey explains why this finding is liberating rather than deterministic, what it means that genetics loads the dice on lifespan more than the mainstream has been willing to admit, and why personalized longevity strategy matters far more than generic population-level advice. Your genes load the dice but you still roll them. The study pushes the field toward genetic stratification and biomarker-based personalization, and it validates the core premise that the same intervention will not produce the same outcome in every person. Get your genetics tested and build your strategy from your own baseline, not from what worked for the average person in a study.  Sources:  https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/science.adz1187  https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/41610249/  https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-026-00300-w  https://www.eurekalert.org/news-releases/1113892    This episode is designed for biohackers, longevity seekers, and high-performance listeners who want mechanism-level clarity on human enhancement, acute inflammatory risk, neuroendocrine aging, immune-driven depression, and the genetics of lifespan.

    Combine Creatine With THIS To Fight The Root Cause of Aging | Andrew Salzman

    How CD38, PARP, and Leaky Gut Are Destroying Your NAD Levels | Dr. Andrew Salzman  Your NAD is being drained by two hidden enzymes, your gut may be the starting point of every aging process in your body, and creatine does something to your mitochondria that has nothing to do with muscle. This episode rewrites what you thought you knew about longevity, anti-aging biology, and how your body actually produces and delivers energy at the cellular level.  -Watch this episode on YouTube for the full video experience: https://www.youtube.com/@DaveAspreyBPR  -Explore all of Wonderfeel’s products at: getwonderfeel.com/dave  They are gifting a complimentary 7-day Youngr™ supply (mini pouch) with every order across any of their products. The code will be DAVE, and the campaign will be active through June 6th. Host Dave Asprey sits down with Dr. Andrew Salzman, a physician, inventor, and biomedical entrepreneur with more than 30 years of experience in drug discovery and development. An alumnus of Harvard Medical School, Yale University, and Columbia University, Dr. Salzman has authored more than 170 scientific publications and holds 50 patents. He invented the original clinical-stage PARP-1 inhibitor, leading to the world's first clinical treatment for raising NAD levels and fighting cancers caused by the BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes. Genentech licensed his breakthrough technology for $600 million. His research into gastrointestinal microbiota, autoimmune disease, oxidative stress, and mitochondrial ATP production now forms the foundation of how millions of patients get treated worldwide.     Dr. Salzman names the two biggest NAD drains in your body, CD38 and PARP, and explains why taking NMN or NR alone is like filling a bathtub with the drain wide open. He breaks down the formulation science behind pairing NAD precursors with CD38 blockers like hydroxytyrosol alongside PARP-reducing antioxidants like ergothioneine, and delivers a paradigm-shifting explanation of creatine as an energy distribution network inside your cells. Rather than a simple muscle supplement, creatine acts as a high-speed ATP shuttle that carries energy from your mitochondria to the precise location and moment your brain, gut, and heart need it most.  You'll Learn:  Why NAD declines with age and which two enzymes are primarily responsible for draining it How CD38 rises with inflammation rather than NAD levels, and what that means for your supplement strategy Why creatine is one of the most underrated anti-aging and brain optimization supplements available How creatine functions as a spatial and temporal energy delivery network for your brain, gut, and heart Why the gut may be the origin point of the entire aging process and how that cascade unfolds decade by decade How leaky gut drives systemic inflammation, crashes NAD, and accelerates biological aging throughout the body What controls tight junction integrity and how ATP, butyrate, creatine, and fasting all play a role Why most creatine supplements fail to absorb properly and what to look for in a high-quality source How to rebuild your microbiome in three to four weeks through diet alone, without antibiotics Why walking immediately after a meal may be doing more harm than good to your gut lining    Thank you to our sponsors!       - Screenfit | Get your at-home eye training program for 40% off using code DAVE at https://www.screenfit.com/dave.  - KILLSwitch | If you’re ready for the best sleep of your life, order now at https://www.switchsupplements.com/and use code DAVE for 20% off  - Pique | Go to Piquelife.com/dave for 20% off.  - iRestore | Reverse hair loss at www.irestore.com/DAVE and get exclusive savings on the iRestore Elite, use code DAVE    Dave Asprey is a four-time New York Times bestselling author, founder of Bulletproof Coffee, and the father of biohacking.

    The Doctor With Answers To Your Mystery Symptoms | Jessica Peatross

    The Hidden Causes of Brain Fog, Anxiety, and Chronic Illness: Mold, Parasites, Histamine, and Low Cortisol    If you're exhausted, inflamed, and can't figure out why, the answer might be hiding in your histamine, your hormones, your home, or something living inside you that your doctor will never test for.    Watch this episode on YouTube for the full video experience: https://www.youtube.com/@DaveAspreyBPR    Host Dave Asprey sits down with Dr. Jessica Peatross, a former hospitalist turned functional medicine powerhouse who walked away from a conventional medical career after discovering that 90% of disease traces back to lifestyle, environment, and the toxins most doctors ignore. After graduating magna cum laude and earning her medical degree from the University of Louisville, Dr. Jess pursued training in functional medicine, nutrigenomics, and alternative therapies, and now helps thousands of patients reverse chronic illness through her KillBindSweat method and WellnessPlus app. She is also the formulator and CMO of Aegis Formulas and a leading voice at international health conferences. If chronic illness, mold toxicity, or hormonal chaos is on your radar, she is the person you want in your corner.    Together, Dave and Dr. Jess go deep into the hidden drivers of mystery symptoms that functional medicine is finally starting to crack open. They cover why low cortisol is more dangerous than high cortisol, how histamine and mast cell activation syndrome explain everything from anxiety and brain fog to endometriosis and POTS, and why most "Lyme disease" is actually undiagnosed mold toxicity. They also break down the parasite epidemic hiding in plain sight across the United States, the B vitamin mistake making millions of people sicker, and why your metabolism, mitochondria, and mental health are all downstream of things your standard lab panel will never catch.    This episode also gets into the real story behind Dr. Jess surrendering her California medical license rather than comply with a system she believed was working against patient health. Her firsthand account of the medical board process is something every person who cares about medical freedom needs to hear.    You'll Learn:  Why everyone who is chronically sick has a low cortisol awakening response and what to do about it How histamine drives anxiety, racing thoughts, palpitations, bloating, skin issues, and hormonal chaos Why 90% of people diagnosed with Lyme disease actually have toxic mold and how to test for both The parasite epidemic in the U.S. and why standard testing misses most of it How the spike protein reactivates dormant viruses and feeds the histamine loop behind long COVID Why synthetic B6 causes the very neuropathy it is supposed to fix, and what to take instead The cortisol, adrenaline, and blood pressure connection that explains "wired but tired" How progesterone stabilizes mast cells and why estrogen dominance fuels inflammation and reactivity Why Dave Asprey uses low-dose cortisol, dexamethasone, and modafinil as part of his daily performance stack The mold binders that actually work, and which popular ones can harm hypermobile people How nicotine at low doses blocks spike protein from ACE2 receptors and protects the brain What the MTHFR gene, methylation, and folic acid have to do with breast cancer, depression, and estrogen detox    Thank you to our sponsors!       - iRestore | Reverse hair loss at www.irestore.com/DAVE and get exclusive savings on the iRestore Elite, use code DAVE  - KILLSwitch | If you’re ready for the best sleep of your life, order now at https://www.switchsupplements.com/and use code DAVE for 20% off  - Calroy | Go to Calroy.com/DAVE for exclusive discounts on Arterosil HP, Vascanox HP and all Calroy products.  - Cowboy Colostrum | Get your gut right by going to cowboycolostrum.com/asprey for 25% off of your entire order.  -Amp | If you're ready to make fitness fit into your life, go to amp.ai to check it out Dave Asprey is a four-time New York Times bestselling author, founder of Bulletproof Coffee, and the father of biohacking.

    The Biblical Anti-Aging Fruit That Scientists Are Obsessed With

    The ancient fruit sitting in your grocery store right now outperforms rapamycin, rivals caloric restriction, and triggers a cellular cleanup process that most longevity scientists did not even know existed until a lab changed everything 18 years ago.    -Watch this episode on YouTube for the full video experience: https://www.youtube.com/@DaveAspreyBPR  -Go to timeline.com/Dave or just use code ‘Dave’ to get 20% off your next order.    Host Dave Asprey sits down with Chris Rinsch, co-founder and President of Timeline Longevity and a PhD cell biologist who has spent nearly two decades doing pharmaceutical quality clinical research on one of the most underrated longevity molecules on earth. Before founding Timeline in 2007, Rinsch worked in venture capital investing in pioneering life sciences companies and in biotechnology developing cell-based therapies at Swiss biotech company ISOTIS SA. He has authored original publications in Nature Medicine, Nature Metabolism, JAMA Open, and Cell Reports Medicine, and holds internationally filed and granted patents on urolithin A. This is the first time a Timeline co-founder has appeared on the show.    Together, Dave and Chris break down the full science of urolithin A, the postbiotic compound unlocked from pomegranate by gut bacteria, and why it triggers mitophagy to clear out damaged mitochondria and replace them with high-functioning ones. They cover why only 30 to 40 percent of people can produce urolithin A from food alone, how one month of supplementation measurably improved immune cell populations in people aged 50 to 70, and why Dave has stacked this into his daily longevity protocol alongside NAD precursors and nootropics for years. If you are serious about biohacking your mitochondria, extending healthspan, and doing smarter not harder longevity work, this episode delivers the deep science to back it up.    You'll Learn:  Why urolithin A outperforms rapamycin in worm lifespan studies and rivals caloric restriction at 45 percent life extension How mitophagy works, why it declines with age, and why it is one of the most important anti-aging mechanisms in the body Why eating pomegranates or taking cheap pomegranate extract does not work for most people and what to take instead How one month of MitoPure improved natural killer cells, CD8 T naive cells, and reduced inflammation in adults aged 50 to 70 Why mitochondria are central to metabolism, brain optimization, immune function, cardiovascular health, and skin aging How Timeline's topical urolithin A produced statistically significant reductions in fine lines and wrinkles after eight weeks Why Dave considers this one of the most clinically validated supplements in his longevity stack alongside NAD and fasting protocols How L'Oreal became a Timeline investor after confirming the mitochondrial science was unlike anything in their existing ingredient library What the XPRIZE Healthspan competition is targeting and why Timeline is competing to reverse biological aging by 10 to 20 years Why the future of functional medicine will require a mitochondrial blood test and how close we are to having one   Thank you to our sponsors!       - EMR-Tek | https://www.emr-tek.com/DAVE and use code DAVE  - Calroy | Go to Calroy.com/DAVE for exclusive discounts on Arterosil HP, Vascanox HP and all Calroy products.  - Neuronic | Go to www.neuronic.online Code DAVE for $100 off  - ENERGYbits | If you want a simpler, smarter way to support your body… this is it.

    How To Hack Your Brain's Missing Youth Molecule | Molly Maloof

    Your relationships are reshaping your biology in ways that diet and exercise alone cannot fix, and the science behind it will change how you think about longevity, metabolism, and what it actually means to be healthy.  Watch this episode on YouTube for the full video experience: https://www.youtube.com/@DaveAspreyBPR    Host Dave Asprey sits down with Dr. Molly Maloof, a physician and one of the most innovative voices in personalized medicine, functional medicine, and human performance. Since 2012, she has advised or consulted for over 50 companies across digital health, consumer health, and biotechnology. She pioneered a course on healthspan at Stanford University and founded Adamo Bioscience, a company dedicated to unlocking the science of love as a pathway to healing and human connection. Dr. Maloof brings a rare combination of clinical depth, biohacking credibility, and entrepreneurial range to one of the most overlooked conversations in longevity.    Together, Dave and Dr. Maloof dig into the neurobiology of love and attachment, the hormonal drivers of the sex drive and pair bonding, and how chronic isolation wrecks your metabolism at the cellular level. They explore the cell danger response and how toxic relationships, mold exposure, and trauma can lock your cells into a self-protection mode that blocks healing. They also cover psychedelics as hormetic tools, oxytocin as nature's medicine, the placebo response, peptide therapy for mitochondrial repair and anti-aging, and why regenerative medicine is about to rewrite the rules of human lifespan. If you are serious about biohacking your body from the inside out, this episode is essential.  You'll Learn:  Why human connection is a biological necessity, not a lifestyle preference, and what isolation does to your mitochondria and metabolism How the three neurobiological drives of sex, romantic love, and attachment are wired into your hormones and what happens when they go wrong What the cell danger response is, why it gets stuck, and which peptides, supplements, and therapies help break the cycle How oxytocin drives wound healing, immune function, and the placebo response Why psychedelics work as hormetic love drugs and how they reproduce the neurobiology of romantic love The top peptides for mitochondrial repair, brain optimization, and telomere biology Why Dave and Dr. Maloof believe we have already reached longevity escape velocity How AI is accelerating precision medicine, protein folding breakthroughs, and the future of anti-aging therapeutics Why fasting, breathwork, neurofeedback, and somatic therapies all converge on the same biological reset mechanism How to build the adaptive capacity and bioenergetic reserves to bounce back from anything   Thank you to our sponsors!       - Danger Coffee | Grab yours at DangerCoffee.com and use code DAVEPOD at checkout for 15% off.  - Amp | If you're ready to make fitness fit into your life, go to amp.ai to check it out  - Puori | Go to Puori.com/DAVE or use code DAVE at checkout to get 32% off your Puori Fish Oil subscription.
