Description

In the past two weeks for the Keto Summit, I interviewed Dave Asprey, Mark Sisson and Professors Tim Noakes, Kieran Clarke and Tom Seyfried. These are just five of the 33 expert interview I have lined up. Each interview is around one hour or 10,000 words long. So much wisdom, sometimes decades in the making, is there anything I can do to help retain some of it in my long term memory? Quite possibly: nootropics are are drugs, supplements, or other substances that improve cognitive function, particularly executive functions, memory, creativity, or motivation, in healthy individuals. I’m completely new to the idea, and if you are too you’ll find this podcast both helpful and intriguing. My expert guest is Ryan Munsey. Ryan is a former fitness model and gym owner turned writer, speaker, and biohacker. He's a mental and physical performance specialist with a degree in Food Science & Human Nutrition from Clemson University. An avid hunter, you'll often find him in the woods.
