Dave Asprey suffered countless symptoms of aging as a young man, which sparked a life-long burning desire to grow younger with each birthday. For more than twenty years, he has been on a quest to find innovative, science-backed methods to upgrade human biology and redefine the limits of the mind, body, and spirit. The results speak for themselves. Now in his forties, Dave is smarter, happier, and more fit and successful than ever before. In Super Human, he shows how this is level of health and performance possible for all of us. While we assume we will peak in middle age and then decline, Asprey's research reveals there is another way. It is possible to make changes on the sub-cellular level to dramatically extend life span. And the tools to live longer also give you more energy and brainpower right now. The answers lie in Dave's Seven Pillars of Aging that contribute to degeneration and disease while diminishing your performance in the moment. Using simple interventions -- like diet, sleep, light, exercise, and little-known but powerful hacks from ozone therapy to proper jaw alignment -- you can decelerate cellular aging and supercharge your body's ability to heal and rejuvenate. A self-proclaimed human guinea pig, Asprey arms readers with practical advice to maximize their lives at every age with his signature mix of science-geek wonder, candor, and enthusiasm. Getting older no longer has to mean decline. Now it's an opportunity to become Super Human.… (lisätietoja)

Dave Asprey is famous (in some circles) as the guy who invented Bulletproof Coffee, which is both a concept and a business. A Silicon Valley entrepreneur, Asprey seems to be one of the first — if not the first — of a new breed of bio-hackers. As a young man he was quite sickly, showing many signs of premature ageing including arthritis. He decided to try out a few things — actually more than few things — which range from the reasonable to the completely bonkers. Some of these seemed to work. In this book, he has decided to share what he’s learned over two decades of using his own body as a guinea pig.

While the book seems to be evidence-based and heavily footnoted, Asprey is not a doctor and this is not credible medical advice. That doesn’t mean it’s not interesting: much of it is. The least-crazy things he suggests (like using a sleep monitor app on your phone, or taking Vitamin C supplements) are things I quickly adopted, at no risk to my health. Some of the later stuff is a bit too edgy for my taste.

I do however agree with his core idea that humans need not become decrepit in our 70s or 80s, and that we absolutely need to die by the age of 120. The ‘maybe’ in the title of his book shows that he’s not convinced that immortality is an option — and his own personal goal is a 50% increase over what is now believed possible. In other words, he wants to live to 180. I wish him luck, and I salute his optimism and ‘can-do’ spirit. I hope he’s right. ( )

Dave Asprey's latest book has some interesting material. The beginning parts of the book are, well, beginner parts. If you're familiar with the health research over the last few years you won't find much new here -- circadian rhythms, making sure to eat enough fat (including saturated), other relatively basic things like that. The later parts get into more advanced things, and I did learn a few interesting ideas that I plan to research more. Red light therapy, lesser-known supplements like PQQ, and seriously bleeding-edge things like SARMs all provide fodder for the more advanced health nut/biohacker. I have a few qualms with how cavalier he is about taking one or 2 studies as gospel for a given topic, and was a bit annoyed by constant self-promotions for other products he sells. (The author is clearly a successful businessman.) I'd suggest to do your own research before making any decisions for anything in parts 2 & 3. But the science is generally good and I learned some new things, so it was a worthwhile read. ( )
