S10 EP10: Biohacking Part 1: What IS Biohacking?

Remember all those movies where the kid manages to hack into the
mainframe of some forbidden organization? Maybe we didn't exactly
understand how typing in all those ones and zeroes did the job
but it was exciting right? Well, imagine YOU are the kid and the
mainframe is your body! Taking control of your own health and
wellness through biohacking is a real thing, and not just a movie
plot. People want to take a more active role in their health
these days. They want to know what they can do to function at
peak performance and maybe even live longer. And experts in
biology, genetics, neuroscience, fitness and nutrition, to name a
few fields, are answering with ways to enhance our minds and
bodies, and in many cases, change our trajectories. 


There are a lot of big claims out there and so many ways to
biohack ourselves. To tackle this robust hot topic, today we are
talking about what biohacking IS and the potential impacts it
could have on your health, fitness and longevity. We want you to
know how you can use it in your own life without feeling
overwhelmed with the amount of information out there. We want you
to make your own informed decisions on what is snake oil and what
is a game changer for YOU. Leave today's episode speaking the
language and perhaps you will decide to be the captain of your
own ship.
