On Today's Episode:
It’s obvious that what we put into our bodies has a major impact on how we feel, how we perform, and how we live the life we have. While some people choose to live in the moment for pleasure with little regard to consequences, others calculate and carefully consider what they consume, when they do and how they do it.
Optimizing for physical and mental performances, reducing stress and improving lifespan and memory is worth more than a moment of pleasure, and it may be possible to biohack your way there.
Ben Greenfield is a biohacker, fitness coach, endurance athlete, and bestselling author of more than a dozen books, including Boundless. His experiences and level of intention in biohacking his health is so clearly communicated, he will leave you inspired and impressed.
