Dr. Sam Shay guides us through his 10 Pillars of health to "Biohack Your Biohacking." Whether you're chronically ill or looking to optimize performance, mapping and prioritizing these pillars can lead you towards the path of least resistance, and efficiency (yes, it can be easier than we think!). He explains why there is no "magic pill" when it comes to optimizing wellness, the reason he goes to Burning Man, and why many biohackers may miss the mark.
