Smarter Not Harder

More about the book

World-renowned biohacker and bestselling author Dave Asprey reveals how to enhance your well-being with minimal effort by taking control of your body's operating system. Many resources promise weight loss, energy boosts, and mental sharpness, but they often require excessive effort for limited results. Asprey presents a more effective approach. He uncovers the secrets of your body’s operating system, or "MeatOS," which is inherently designed to be lazy. This design explains why traditional exercise and strict diets yield modest benefits. By hacking the MeatOS, you can transform it from an obstacle into an ally. Asprey emphasizes that optimal wellness comes from doing less—exercising and eating smarter, leveraging the body’s natural tendencies. This work is not a diet or fitness plan but a series of targeted biohacks aimed at upgrading your metabolic, neurological, and epigenetic systems. It offers practical advice on better eating, efficient workouts that maximize strength and energy, and therapies to reduce stress and enhance resilience. Asprey’s insights will guide you to achieve lasting health in less time, making the most of your body’s capabilities without unnecessary strain.
