Show notes
The Annual Biohacking Conference, hosted by Upgrade Labs, is a mind-boggling, mind-enhancing gathering of people, from all walks of life, who want to live better and longer. LLAMA’s Peter Bowes attended this year’s event, in Beverly Hills, California, to meet Dave Asprey, the movement’s poster boy for self-improvement, along with some of the conference’s key speakers and exhibitors. In this episode we explore everything from cryotherapy to enhancing neuroplasticity, flow meditation, mitochondrial health and infrared saunas. Dave explains how biohacking has come of age, why he believes he will live to be at least 180 and how he says everyone - not just the rich and famous - could benefit from being in better control of their bodies and biology. 01:52Dave AspreyFounder, BulletproofDave, the original biohacker, explains how and why the practice has come of age and how we can all benefit from it."Biohacking is largely the art and science of changing the environment around you, so that you have more control of your biology.”Also check out: LLAMA episode 65, with Peter’s tour of Upgrade Labs in Santa Monica.
