Dopamine isn’t the enemy—low brain energy is. When your mitochondria can’t make enough ATP, your neurons misfire, leading to fatigue, brain fog, and lack of focus.

Learn the biohacks that protect your brain’s power plants and keep you sharp all day long.Chapters0:00 – Introduction0:22 – Brain energy vs dopamine0:49 – ATP shortage causes fatigue1:53 – Prefrontal cortex and energy3:08 – Why ATP fuels focus and mood4:40 – Stress, sleep and mitochondria6:00 – Biohacks for energy production7:39 – Backup battery: phosphagen system8:46 – Creatine for brain energy & focus13:18 – Vegans, women and creatine needs15:07 – Best practices for dosing creatine17:53 – Daily creatine + electrolytesThank you to our sponsors!-ECHO Water |&nbsp;Go to&nbsp;<a href="http://echowater.com/dave" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">http://echowater.com/dave</a>&nbsp;and use code DAVE10 for 10% off your ECHO Flask.Connect with Dave Asprey!Website: https://daveasprey.comTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@daveaspreyofficialInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/dave.asprey/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Daveaspreyofficial/X: https://x.com/daveaspreyYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/daveaspreybprThe Human Upgrade Podcast: https://www.instagram.com/TheHumanUpgradePodcast/ https://m.facebook.com/Thehumanupgrade/Danger Coffee: https://dangercoffee.com/DAVE15Dave Asprey’s BEYOND Conference: https://beyondconference.com/Dave Asprey’s New Book - Heavily Meditated: https://daveasprey.com/heavily-meditated/Dave's favorite supplements: https://www.shopsuppgradelabs.com/discount/DAVE15Upgrade Collective: https://www.ourupgradecollective.comUpgrade Labs: https://upgradelabs.com40 Years of Zen: https://40yearsofzen.comSee Privacy Policy at <a href="https://art19.com/privacy" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://art19.com/privacy</a> and California Privacy Notice at <a href="https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info</a>.
