This episode breaks down a smarter approach to energy, one that builds mitochondria function, supports gut health, stabilizes mood, and helps you sleep better at night, all without the crash  -Get 15% off your next order at: https://getmte.com/dave   Host Dave Asprey sits down with Jeff Boyd, founder and chairman of MTE (More Than Energy), the caffeine-free energy drink built around adaptogens, nootropics, and prebiotics that delivers what Boyd calls \"energy that loves you back.\" Before launching MTE, Jeff spent 15 years as President and co-owner of Luggage Free, scaling the company to operations in over 100 countries before selling it in 2019. He brings the operational discipline of a veteran entrepreneur and the personal conviction of someone who built the energy product he actually wanted to exist.  Dave and Jeff get into the full science and strategy behind MTE's ingredient stack, including paraxanthine, ashwagandha, eleuthero, maca, GABA, theanine, and saffron, and why each one was chosen for its role in stress response, brain optimization, and sleep optimization. They also dig into the formulation challenges of building a clean-label supplement over a stimulant base, the real difference between caffeine and its downstream metabolite paraxanthine, and why this blend functions more like a foundational biohacking protocol than a beverage.  You'll Learn:  Why conventional energy drinks wreck your cortisol curve and what to do instead  How paraxanthine delivers the benefits of caffeine without the jitters or sleep disruption  The adaptogen trio (ashwagandha, eleuthero, and maca) and how they work together for stress response and human performance  Why saffron…","meta_description":"Most energy drinks trade your long-term health for a short-term jolt.
