Limitless: Biohacking Brainpower, Health, Personal Growth & Beyond

This book is a real black pill (a grim truth) for those who are optimistic about medical science delivering us cures to disease. The book's title is a clever double entendre, the death of the rigor in science causes actual death. But don't despair! In this book review, I share some guidelines for biohacking in this era of bad science. 3:28 Rigor Mortis - The death of rigor in science 5:55 The fund...

I heard a fascinating interview with author Patricia L. Gerbarg, in which she was exuberantly praising this Nootropic adaptogen, Rhodiola, which is (literally) mythological. After reading this book, I was very sold on trying Rhodiola itself. I've concluded after reading this book, writing a 3000-word article, and spending many hours scouring Pubmed looking at studies that Rhodiola as a Nootropic h...

You never knew how important your elbow was to life until you messed it up, right? Elbows often don’t get the respect and care that they deserve as a joint upon which so much that we do hinges.

Perhaps you probably haven't had much success with meditation yet because your mind needs to warm up, your mind needs some "foreplay" to actually meditate. You've probably heard of the myriad benefits of meditation elsewhere; antiaging, memory, neuroplasticity, stress management, and "being present" in social interactions. But what are the immediate, day-to-day benefits? If you devote 10-20 minute...

Anti-aging is about reaching escape velocity, living long enough for science to give you the option to live as long as you want (in brilliant health). The central piece to the puzzle of longevity is the telomeres; the caps on the ends of your chromosomes that, as the decades pass, shorten. As the telomeres are worn down, the gene replication and cell division processes suffer and disease and cogni...

The Transhumanist wager is a rationalization that comes out of the objectivist school of thought. I began reading this while I was finishing up Atlas Shrugged by Ayn Rand and the parallels are significant. After reading both I'm coming to the conclusion that philosophical ideas are better communicated as fiction novels. The book starts with this very determined young man, who is on a mission to ci...

The more focused attention you can devote to this...

For potentiating the godfather of Nootropics, Piracetam. Warning: It may turn you into a 007 villain!

A problem you can relate to if you read a lot: You forget the vast majority of the information you spend time consuming. You spend 10-20 hours reading a good book. But of the thousands of words and hundreds of ideas that you consume in 300-400 pages, how much of it are you actually going to commit to memory, recall when you need it, and apply?

We’ve long thought of arthritis as an annoyance to the elderly, just a part of aging. But, increasingly younger people suffer from it too. So I’ll suggest to you that it’s NOT just an inevitable part of getting older. Arthritis, like so many health problems, is not a cause, but a symptom of deeper dysfunction that can be addressed by a holistic lifestyle approach. Read 📑 Everything mentioned here...

While so many in society are concerned with making everything fair and equal, elite Entrepreneurs are giving themselves a stark unfair advantage by embracing biohacking. We all have natural limits of how hard and smart we can work.

My review of VINPOTROPILE®/Vinotropil, a smart drug cocktail from Russia. I'm not a big of Vinpocetine, it's kind of a lackluster Nootropic and when I've used it in isolation I was always pretty underwhelmed but it only contains a very small amount of Vinpocetine. It mostly consists of one of my all-time favorite smart drugs, Piracetam. Each of these little capsules is 5 milligrams Vinpocetine and...

I suggest that you stockpile what people will desperately need so that you can be a pillar of your community in its time of greatest need. You can buy loyalty by saving lives when pharmacies are looted empty and hospitals are overwhelmed. I'm suggesting that you be charitable to those who most need it. And, if in a collapse, you find yourself desperate for food, water, transportation, lodging, or...

Tianeptine is one of the better pharmacological happiness hacks I've tried but It's not happiness I've earned, it's just happiness I swallow 10 milligrams at a time. As I get older and more stoic I see happiness as a whole lot less worthy goal. Happiness should be a mere side effect of one's efforts. So I don't see myself making a habit out of using this one.

I've personally experimented with over 200 different Nootropics over the past 12 years and I can tell you, even without trying it, that there are a couple of problems with Qualia. Now, these criticisms generalize to almost all Nootropic stacks but Qualia I find particularly problematic because it's so expensive and contains so many ingredients. 1:40 Insufficient dosages 5:22 One-size-fits-all dosa...
