Biohacker and Bulletproof Coffee founder Asprey (The Bulletproof Diet) has given readers a roadmap of routes to take to “hack” the body and release it from its natural wiring to be lazy. The author compares human bodies to an operating system that he calls “MeatOS.” Operating systems, he explains, are set up to achieve certain tasks. He asserts that the MeatOS is set up for procrastinating, avoiding certain activities, and self-sabotaging at a time when people want to move forward. In “Resources for Life,” “Targets and Goals,” and “Endless Improvement,” the book guides readers on how to tame those tendencies and internal dilemmas and move on to attaining goals. Although this title is not a new diet or exercise plan, it does contain helpful advice on eating healthier, developing smarter workouts, and achieving optimal results in less time.
VERDICT A deeply absorbing book that offers a refreshing approach on how to succeed in living a healthier lifestyle. Ideal for readers interested in fitness, healthy eating, and general health.
