What's in your head? As we delve into answering that and the brain-bending science of consciousness with Anil Seth, he lights up the groundbreaking research that is expanding our understanding of the mind.
We also discuss the growing industry of nootropics, since we're living in an age where a silver bullet for the brain is in high demand. Often marketed as 'smart drugs', these supplements claim to provide sharper thinking, better memory, and turbocharged creativity. It's catnip for the peak-performance chasers. But do they deliver on their promises, or are they merely the latest iteration of wellness grifters capitalizing on our quest for optimal optimization?
We're diving headfirst into this with Anil, peeling back the layers on what's real, what's hype, and offering insights that bridge the gap between scientific discovery and societal trends. Whether you're a skeptic of the industry of #wellness or curious about the frontiers of #neuroscience - let's unravel the narrative, challenge our perceptions, and maybe, just maybe, see the world-and yourself-a little differently afterward.
