Leon the Alchemist is an experienced biohacker, certified Master Herbalist and podcaster who prides himself on teaching you how to optimize your health mentally and physically through (mostly) natural means. We dive deep into the world of herbs and plants, discussing how to incorporate them into your meals, which ones have potent antioxidants and polyphenols, and the best ones for youthful, healthy skin. We chat about drinking extra virgin olive oil, the benefits and why “food is merely here to get more olive oil in our mouths”. Leon explains how to increase the benefits of olive oil through combining it with thyme, resulting in a deeper reduction of inflammation in the body. We also talk about: What is biohacking and where to begin Shilajit for boosting testosterone and skin health The best types of salt Restaurant and fast-food nutrition Travel biohacks Resources: Learn more: https://www.bioalchemy.co Instagram: @leonthealchemist For more Biohacking Brittany: Follow on Instagram @biohackingbrittany Connect on Facebook Subscribe to my newsletter through biohackingbrittany.com Download my free Cycle-Syncing one-pager

Fitness Biohacks: In Under 9 Minutes Get the Equivalent of a 45 Minute Run, Active Recovery, New Exercise Machines, Personalized Meditation, Pamela Gold
Pamela Gold is not only a mind/body/spirit strength expert, but a best-selling author and creator of the first biohacking fitness studio in New York City, HACKD Fitness. We get into the nitty-gritty of how to maximize your workout in the least amount of time using new technologies like the ARX machine (for resistance training) and the CAR.O.L (a stationary bike for high intensity interval training). Although incorporating high-tech exercise machines like this can cut your workout time by ~70% AND allow you to get better results, we also discuss how to incorporate these ideas and techniques into your current workout routine using the equipment you have. We discuss the benefits of meditation and how to include meditation in your day-to-day routine, especially for those who are new to it or struggle with sticking to it daily. We also talk about: How much recovery you need when working out consistently Active versus inactive recovery Benefits of yoga and breath movement The uniqueness of meditation Resources: Learn more: http://www.hackdfitness.com/ Instagram: @hackdfitness Read: Autobiography of a Yogi by Paramhansa Yogananda Listen: Alan Finger meditations Download: Insight Timer meditation app For more Biohacking Brittany: Follow on Instagram @biohackingbrittany Connect on Facebook Subscribe to my newsletter through biohackingbrittany.com Download my free Cycle-Syncing one-pager
