What is Bio-Hacking?
From Eating Well to Active Experimentation
The field of bio-medicinal research regarding aging and nutrition is proceeding faster than ever before. Many nutritional recommendations have been debunked as myths in the recent years. More and more biochemical schemes of the physiology of our bodies get unveiled. Yet, despite the progress in understanding there are still vast areas that we do not understand at all and many likely have not even been discovered.
Those two aspects, first the rapidly progressing research, and second, the vastness of complexity and uncharted metabolic territory combines with a third aspect, which should not be underestimated: the orthodoxy of medicinal practice.
Together they create a situation, where huge promises, or expected advantages, based on a good, but definitely incomplete understanding, match the impossibility to get support by the pharma-medical area.
That large gap between hopes and approved treatment creates space for experimentation. We can find quite different means and scopes.
Experimental physiological experimentation reaches from light to serious approaches, from simple physiological stabilization, to physiological optimization and full-blown bio-hacking.
Goals reach from balancing food intake for closing deficiencies in vitamins and minerals, to truly scientific approaches, from trying to stay healthy to intensely enhancing and modifying metabolism by supplementation and even barely approved drugs.
The methods are (1) tracking food, eliminating or adding some foods solely on the basis of a feel-good approach, (2) minutely registering any intake and correlating that to the values of lots of physiological bio-markers, and (3) targeted supplementation for specific metabolic contexts and even taking largely untested drugs like rapamycin.
Implementation
Applying any of the methods for physiological optimization described above requires deep knowledge about physiology and the capability to adjust that knowledge according to recent research.
With our experience we can support you on any level you would choose.
Together we discuss your goals and render them int an action plan.
The result will be a beautiful move towards sustainable achievements and physiological stability.
