I have several friends who I would consider to be VIP's, bigwigs, and leading authorities in the field of health and biohacking.

Although I will respectfully keep those friends anonymous, I've noted that a relatively large majority of them have one specific man who serves as their personal physician, and he's the same guy who advises some of the world's top Spartans, strongmen competitors and obstacle racers, including April Dee, Hector Mendoza and Orla Walsh, Frank Franco and Joey Patrolia. That man is Dr. Anthony Beck, and he's my guest on today's podcast. Dr. Beck is an author, speaker, and leader in the medical world with over 20 years experience in the areas of Functional Medicine, Chinese Medicine, Clinical Nutrition, Orthomolecular Medicine, Hormone Replacement Therapy, Sports Medicine and Exercise Physiology. He maintains fur national medical board certifications, is the Medical Director for Task Force Dagger Foundation (which provides benevolent health care for U.S. military special forces operators and their families), is the founder and chief medical officer for Balance Protocol Institute, is the founder and CEO of Helion Nutraceuticals and is also the CEO of Hydration Solutions Inc. So not only is Dr. Beck a wealth of knowledge on advanced health tactics, medical testing, and the combination of biohacking and exercise performance, but he's also the mastermind behind a hydration tactic I've personally been experimenting with: a tiny invention called Oral I.V. In this interview, we delve into all of Dr. Beck's health secrets, and you'll discover:

-Why so many really smart people in the health industry and top pro athletes look to Dr. Beck as their personal physician...

-The exact food allergy panel that Dr. Beck recommends, and why he doesn't like the Cyrex panel...

-The eight different components that Dr. Beck tests as part of what he calls his "Balance" protocol...

-The exact science behind maximizing water delivery into cells...

-How water can carry an electrical charge, and how it creates something called an exclusion zone (also known as EZ water)...

-How much "less" water could you theoretically drink by using Oral IV...

-Why Dr. Beck believes that you do not need to take salt or electrolyte pills during exercise...

-The exact water restructuring and filtration system that Dr. Beck uses in his own home...

-And much more!
