    A mutated gene might be making you smarter....and fatter. That's what some studies about the COMT gene are pointing too. Dave enlists world renown anti-aging Dr. Lionel Bissoon, to discuss this mutant gene commonly found in intelligent and highly functioning people like executives. And while this mutant gene may contribute to making you smarter and more successful, it can also have a serious side effect. It makes you fatter.

It distills the knowledge of world-class doctors, biochemists, scientists, Olympic nutritionists, meditation experts, and mavericks. Dave has spent more than $1M on personal health experiments. From private brain EEG facilities hidden in a Canadian forest to remote monasteries in Tibet, from Silicon Valley to the Andes, high-tech entrepreneur Dave Asprey used hacking techniques and tried everything himself, obsessively focused on discovering: What are the simplest things you can do to be better at everything? It used to take a lifetime to radically rewire the human body and mind. Technology has changed the rules. Follow along as Dave Asprey and guests provide you with everything you need to upgrade your mind, body, and life.
