Escaping the Drift with John Gafford
The Role of AI in Productivity with Ari Meisel

But if you say to somebody like, what if you only had an hour a day to get things done? At that point, it's really not a question about what would you do? It's wouldn't you do? And if the things that you wouldn't do still need to get done, then who or increasingly what is gonna do them for you? It's just like a very mind bending kind of experience.

So that question is what really led to me starting to experiment with all sorts of different productivity methods. A lot of the things that I teach are very counterintuitive to what a lot of other productivity people teach. And it worked and it's grown since then to coaching, speaking, writing, all that stuff.

Yeah, so it was definitely an interesting experience. There were definitely things that I did that did not help. There were some things that made me feel worse. But ultimately what I learned, so I tried all sorts of things. I tried a vegan diet, a vegetarian, pescatarian. At this point, I can pretty much eat, I mean, I eat anything I want.

But I believe that the best diet overall, it's not about being gluten-free, it's not about pescatarian or anything, it's that it is low in sugar. and very, very high in saturated fats. So grass-fed butter, pastured egg yolks, heritage-raised pork, grass-fed beef.

I think butter should be prescribable, honestly, because one of the things that a lot of people don't realize is that butter is called butter because of butyric acid, and butyric acid is one of the main ways that probiotics in your gut or the bacteria in your gut communicate with each other. So butter it up.

It's incredible. And then there's a bunch of supplements. I think that the supplements are kind of easy. There's some weird ones I definitely try and I don't take those anymore now. It's just probiotic and krill oil and vitamin D and some zinc I think is what I'm usually doing now. But The other one is we don't have enough like fermented foods in the diet in America as far as I'm concerned.
