A short YouTube segment by Vishen Lakhiani arguing that losing body fat improves brain function and cognitive performance. The speaker cites a 2020 study by Dr. Daniel Amen and analysis of ~20,000 brain SPECT scans from Amen clinics to support the claim that higher body weight associates with lower brain functioning; he links fat loss (via fasting) to better entrepreneurship, decision-making, productivity, wellbeing, and lifespan.
