Just 1 Gram Activates Your Deep Focus Switch (Take THIS) : 1484
Summary
Host Dave Asprey argues that focus loss stems from brain chemistry, not lack of discipline, specifically depleted neurotransmitters and oxidative stress. He identifies vitamin C as a critical molecule for sustaining dopamine, norepinephrine, and acetylcholine levels. The episode details how to optimize vitamin C uptake by managing blood sugar and inflammation, and suggests pairing it with NAC, CoQ10, or PQQ to enhance cognitive performance and longevity.
