Future Wellness: Dave Asprey Foretells Dave Asprey: you’ve heard the name before. He of Blue Zones and Bulletproof coffee fame, the man who sang from sunny California rooftops the praises of “biohacking” and a thought-leader on numerous other wellness innovations – Asprey was recently interviewed by The Chalkboard Magazine, discussing the notion of the “Human Upgrade”. If you’re wondering what on Earth that means and envisaging something semi-bionic from films like I, Robot, you’re probably not too far off – as far as technology’s influence goes. From cryogenics, to ozone therapy, and PEMF (pulsing electromagnetic fields) – Asprey seems to be clairvoyant when it comes to future trends in health and wellbeing. With his latest venture, Upgrade Labs, moving that one step closer to “hacking longevity”, Asprey seriously admits a “plan to live to 180”. Follower of a lowcarb, high-fat diet, who together with his wife undergoes stem cell therapy to rid themselves of old injuries – the man who opened our eyes to the diets of centenarians around the world advises a critical initial undertaking is to block EMFs (electromagnetic fields), as these are subversively “messing with” our biology and speeding up the ageing process… So far, so LA. Given Asprey is also a fan of taking muscle-building and fat-burning compounds for increasing his growth hormone and testosterone levels, as well as NFB (neurofeedback) for brain function and overall psychological health, is it any wonder he advises we should all switch off the news and listen to his Human Upgrade podcast instead for “actionable takeaways that will help you perform like a superhuman” instead of feeding mass fear over the state of the world? That said, the Aspreys also have a working pig farm and grow a lot of their own vegetables… The twenty-first century example of a self-sufficient family? Perhaps.
