On this episode of Brave New World, we’re turning our attention to nootropics and neuroscience. 

Nootropics are drugs and supplements which proponents say can boost alertness, increase focus, and improve memory. 

Today, Evgeny Lebedev meets Nootopia founder Mark Effinger, AKA Mr Noots. Since launching in 2004, Nootopia has helped 300,000 people- including doctors, biohackers, and fitness instructors- unlock their potential. 

 

The two discuss:
