THC 90: Dave Asprey | Biohacking, Optimizing, & The Upgraded Self
High-Fat Nutrition, Epigenetics, Survival Mode vs Thriving
The discussion explores the biological impact of high-fat diets on hormonal health and genetic expression. Dave Asprey explains that eating high-quality fats sends environmental signals to the body to move out of "survival mode" and into "thriving mode," which lowers cortisol and raises testosterone. He compares human metabolism to a race car requiring high-octane fuel to burn cleaner and more efficiently.
