One of the tenets of Bulletproofness (if that’s even a word) is that you simultaneously increase your energy while doing things more efficiently. There is no greater opportunity for efficiency than when it comes to being a prospective father. A Georgetown study just discovered, “A man who pursues an unhealthy diet, it turns out, not only increases the risk of numerous diseases in his direct offspring (cancer, diabetes, infertility, etc.), he also increases that risk for multiple generations of offspring.” (Natural News, 2010)

Talk about efficiency! Take care of your own health, boost your energy, perform well at the office, keep your kids, AND grandkids (and yourself) from getting degenerative diseases.

My wife Lana and I have written “The Better Baby Book” about how to have a heather baby with a higher IQ starting in the womb. Our book contains 1300 references to studies like the one I’m citing now, which was conducted by Georgetown University Medical Center, and presented at the American Association for Cancer Research (http://www.naturalnews.com/029198_c…) showing that cancer risk attributable to the junk food fed to parent rats was passed through two generations even if the direct offspring ate a healthy diet.”

For the last few years, I’ve been eating significant amounts of grass-fed butter and coconut or MCT oil daily as a way to enhance my brain, increase fat burning, and stay energized. Everyone I know who tries this seems to adopt a higher, healthy fat diet because they *know* they feel stronger. Check out this video from Eri Gentry, a psychologist, who measured the very noticeable improvement in cognitive function that comes from eating healthy fat.

I eat straight coconut oil sometimes but doing it right is more complex. Some forms of coconut oil have brain-killing toxins formed by mold that grows on the coconuts that are pressed for oil. Go for high-end virgin brands that taste good and avoid “copra” coconut oil.

Or even better yet, much of the time, I use a coconut oil extract called XCT oil that is liquid at room temperature, has no flavor at all, and has been shown to work directly in the brain’s mitochondria as fuel. I use it in salad dressings and smoothies, you can get XCT oil, a pharmaceutical MCT oil at my Upgraded Self store.. Every person I know who has tried XCT has come back for more.
