Andy Mant is the Founder and CEO of BluBlox, a company who produces high-quality blue light blocking glasses. Andy and Boomer discuss the role of melanopsin, how to regulate blue light, and the role of circadian rhythms for performance. "When the sun rises in the morning and as it actually sets in the evening, the intensity of light changes. During first sort of sunrise periods, you're going to have a very low lux light. It is probably about sort of 1800 Kelvin on the sunrise and the sunset. It's actually not really that difficult to look at and it also contains a lot yet less frequencies of invisible light like UV." Andy Mant, CEO of BluBlox Who is Andy Mant? Andy Mant is the founder and CEO of BLUblox, a company specializing in evidence-based advanced light filtering eyewear. Andy started BLUblox after becoming dissatisfied with the quality and standards of blue light blocking glasses available and so set about to design lenses that match the evidence in the academic literature. Andy was born in the UK and moved to Australia in 2011. After moving and about 2 years after arriving Andy’s gained a lot of weight and become chronically fatigued and lacked energy. Traditional dietary approaches only worked to a certain degree and after stumbling across light and health Andy forged a passion and niche understanding of all things light related to health. Today Andy is a leading figure in managing light to improve health and wellbeing.

No, I’m not married yet. And frankly, before that ring, I hated wearing rings. But I must say the guys at Oura have done a great job. The ring allows me to track all sorts of crazy things about my sleep, including my resting heart rate, my deep sleep stages, my REM sleep, etc, etc. I really enjoy the feedback and allows me to make lifestyle decisions to become a higher performer. Let me give you an example. So prior to getting the ordering, I would fast essentially 16 hours after my last meal. It didn’t matter when that last meal was. However, when I look at my resting heart rate, and how that really correlates to my performance The next day, I know I want my lowest resting heart rate coming as soon as possible after going to sleep because that’s when all my recovery really starts. So what did I do? Well, it allowed me to adjust really when my last meal was before going to bed. So I have my last meal. Now, earlier in the night, I get better sleep, I get higher quality sleep. And I must say the next day feels amazing. So if you want to check out the Oura Ring and if you want to pick one up yourself, go to ouraring.com and plug in the code Boomer and you’ll get $50 off your order or 50 euros, depending on your jurisdiction. I really hope you enjoy the ring and on with the show. Disclaimer This information is being provided to you for educational and informational purposes only.

	02 Jul 2018	Neurological Stimulation for Faster Healing and High Performance with Garrett Salpeter	00:53:39
Instead of [the traditional stimulation device] paradigm, what we're trying to do is send more of a sensory signal so rather than a motor signal taking over the muscles and causing them to do something, we're actually sending a signal as if movement is taking place and even if it isn't, as if movement is taking place and seeing how the brain responds to movement. Remember the body is capable of doing more than it's currently doing. And if we send a signal that movement is happening in a certain area, we're going to be able to tap into where those limitations are actually occurring. As we scan around with the electrode, we're able to find areas where there's dysfunction. Affiliate Disclosure Who is Garrett Salpeter? Known as "The Health Engineer," Garrett has taken his education in Physics (BS) and Engineering (MSE) and applied it to a system for making the human body better. His journey started when he picked up ice hockey as a boy. It was a game he loved, but for which he had little natural aptitude. After several years "skating by," he decided to delve deeply into the world of strength and conditioning to try to give himself a chance to play at a higher level. Unfortunately, what was popular at the time did not work for him -- and he kept searching. In dealing with some injury problems, he learned about the paramount importance of the nervous system and saw the connections to how the same neurological principles could be applied to fitness. The neurological approach worked, and he never looked back. He became determined to learn as much as possible about how to affect the nervous system. To that end, he spent hundreds of hours in self-study, mentored under several leading-edge practitioners, tested many of his theories on himself and others, and even went back to school for a Ph.D. program in Neuroscience. In 2009, he opened his first facility in Austin, TX to start sharing these methods with his community. This has grown into what we now know as NeuFit, which combines an advanced understanding of physiology with the best practices from diverse training and therapeutic practices, and constantly pushes these processes by using technology to accelerate them further. Since that first day, he has worked with people of all ages and in almost all situations, including athletes from MLB, the NFL, the NHL, UFC, Olympics, NCAA Divisions I, II, and III, and more, helping them get out of pain, improve performance, sometimes avoid surgeries, and live life at a higher level. He lives in Austin, Texas and is ecstatically in love with his wife, Briana, and their two daughters, Gwenny and Gemma. What is the NEUBIE? NEUBIE is NeuFit’s patent-pending device. It is an acronym for “NEURO-BIO-ELECTRIC STIMULATOR.” The NEUBIE is engineered to take advantage of all of the amazing things we’ve learned about the nervous system in the last 2-3 decades. The nervous system controls every muscle movement. The NEUBIE wave form has two main benefits. (1) It provides direct current, and (2) it matches the signals the nervous system already sends naturally on its own. If a movement dysfunction is contributing to your pain, keeping you injured, limiting your mobility, or robbing you of performance, then the Neubie can help you. Key Highlights of the Podcast How Garrett went from engineer to neuroscience Garrett's background in ice hockey and its driving force behind NeuFit What is the NEUBIE? How Garrett advanced electrostimulation with the NEUBIE The difference between NEUBIE, TDCS, and other electrostimulation devices Garrett's process for evaluating clients prior to using the NEUBIE How I used the Neubie to fix a "turned-off" quad Using the NEUBIE as an exercise tool How often can you train using the NEUBIE?

	05 Feb 2019	Super Learning and Keeping Up in the Age of Innovation with Justin Noppé	00:59:56
Justin Noppé once memorized a chapter in Moby Dick and Pi to 100 digits. The techniques Justin employed go far beyond the memory palace. He developed systems which are useful in tackling the feats of memory and applicable to learning any subject, including language. “Most people just want to have a conversation that's comfortable. How much time do you need to put in for that? I would say, yes, 30 minutes a day. Five, maybe six times a week for about six months. You'll get to a point, if you use the correct methodology if you're learning the correct stuff, the correct material in six months you will become very comfortable with that language.” Justin Noppé Who is Justin Noppé? Like you, language and performance expert, Justin Noppé, went through the regular school pipeline, coming out the other end asking if this was really beneficial? How much information from those 12 years is still accessible? Do I know how to study? Teaching languages for 15 years, his approach is radically different. Unlike many teachers and language programs, he shows how to become automatic with a language and use your brains natural methods. Working in harmony with what is, rather than working against it. Asking the question, "How can I get better results with less time?" Justin is able to help his clients connect with other cultures and achieve surprising results. Justin's method is a fusion of language and brain training that connects his clients to their previously unrealized potential. Companies and individuals all along the spectrum, from style consultants to internet exchange companies, have come to him for fast, long term results not only in languages, but also with other aspects of language and brain performance such as presentation coaching, accent reduction and meta-cognitive skills training (like memory techniques, speed reading and mental model workshops). Justin continues to work with cross-cultural professionals online or in group workshops.

	09 Jul 2018	Creating Peak Performance using Music with Dr. Costas Karageorghis	00:54:49
You can think of a music program almost contouring your expected heart rate. Starting at a low point, having a peak and then gradually coming down. If you're engaged in interval training such as HIIT - high intensity interval training - it might be that you have peaks and troughs in the energy of the music so as to reflect the physiological peaks and troughs in the workout. So I think the desired mental state and the underlying physiological state are drivers for the type of music that you would select. If I was stretching for example I might use a track such as No Diggity. Affiliate Disclosure Who is Dr. Karageorghis? Dr. Costas Karageorghis is a leader in sports psychology and Divisional Lead for Sport, Health and Exercise Sciences at Brunel University in London. From 2009-14, he served as Deputy Head (Research) of the former School of Sport and Education and led preparations for two REF2014 subject submissions (Sports-Related and Education). Costas has established an international reputation for his research into the psychological, psychophysiological and neurophysiological effects of music. He has captured 25 research grants during his academic career. Costas is the author of two textbooks, 12 book chapters, 80 peer-reviewed journal articles and 100 professional papers in sport and exercise psychology. Costas’s music research has been featured in newspapers around the world; most recently in the Times, Independent, New York Times, Wall Street Journal, Washington Post and Sydney Morning Herald. He is currently working on multi-modal stimulation during physical activity that entails the use of music, video images, virtual reality and visual primes. Such work is oriented towards enhancing people's sensory experiences during physical activity, with a view to increasing exercise adherence and promoting public health. Costas is a chartered member of the British Psychological Society and a double-accredited member of BASES (psychology research and scientific support). In September 2010, he was elected a Fellow of BASES for his services to sport and exercise sciences in the UK. In September 2013 he was awarded Chartered Scientist status by the Science Council. Costas acts as consultant psychologist to a number of international and professional athletes and has worked with a wide variety of UK governing bodies of sport (e.g. British Athletics, British Canoe Union, British Water Ski Federation and England Hockey). He has also worked with many multinational companies in the sports world and music industry. During his spare time, Costas plays the piano, often performing in a jazz and latin duo with drummer Joel Shopland.

And that is Neurohacker Collective. I had Jordan Greenhall, the CEO on the show before and you know I love what they’re doing. Neurohacker Collective has a couple of products now and more coming out in the future but one of which is Qualia, which I use 5-7 days every week and the second one is Qualia Mind, which I use on occasion, just when I want to mix it up a little bit. Qualia has over 40 ingredients and has significantly upgraded both my own wellbeing but also the concept of sovereignty which you can go look at the Jordan podcast later if you want.

	25 Feb 2018	The Insider's Guide to Nootropics with Mansal Denton	00:50:18
The best approach for nootropics that I found and I try to impart on people is to think about them as tools where we can go from hopefully 95 to 100% in that range, just being totally optimized in ourselves to 105, 110% using nootropics. So hoping for some small increase above what we’re already capable of as opposed to what many people are drawn towards nootropics for, which is to go from 60, 70% because they got a bad night of sleep, bad diet, drinking alcohol in order to just simply get by or function and I think that taking that approach is really the first step. Affiliate Disclosure About the Guest: Nootropics Expert, Mansal Denton Mansal Denton is an entrepreneur. He has experience in many different ventures, organized a festival, published a book, and a myriad of other projects like donating books to prisoners. At age 20 he was arrested and at 23 sentenced to 8 years in the Texas State Penitentiary. This prison sentence has influenced Mansal’s life tremendously. With these unique life experiences, quirky behavior, and a somewhat arrogant nature, he has been featured on media outlets such as Entrepreneur, Huffington Post, Fox News, and Elite Daily. Mansal Denton is the creator or co-creator of Nootropedia, which is a website that provides unbiased and factual information on nootropics to the extent where it's actually available. He's also the creator of a documentary and a book called A Head Above: A Simple Guide to Peak Mental Performance which Mansal wrote in 30 days. Mansal lived in Switzerland, Poland, but currently resides in Austin, Texas. Disclosure on Nootropics This article and podcast episode do not constitute medical advice. Should you have interest in nootropics, please do your own research and consult your physician. What are Nootropics? The strict definition of nootropics is a synthetic or natural compound that improves markers of cognitive abilities without the risks or significant risk of side effects. Other cognitive enhancers which may have significant side effects are labeled as "Smart Drugs." For the purposes of this discussion, Mansal and I utilize "Nootropics" to describe both Nootropics and Smart Drugs. Non-Nootropic Cognitive Enhancement Intermittent Fasting Increasing one's capability without nootropics is possible. In this discussion, Mansal references intermittent fasting as a method to upregulating brain-derived neurotrophic factor. Mansal employs a fasting technique called 16-8. In this strategy, a person would fast for 16 hours of the day, only having an 8-hour eating window. Additional fasting strategies, such as 3-day water only fasts can be utilized under the supervision of a physician for different results. Deep Work Similar to previous podcast guest Peter Joosten, Mansal often employs "Deep Work."The concept is based largely on Cal Newport's book entitled Deep Work (link below). Mansal defines Deep Work as "uninterrupted work that is 100% free from distraction." Mansal tracks his time religiously. He utilizes earplugs, a specific morning routine, the "Inbox When Ready" app for Google Chrome, a gratitude practice, meditation, and putting his phone in airplane mode to eliminate distraction. Who are Nootropics for? Who are they not for? Nootropics require a solid foundation of health in order to get the maximum benefits. This includes: optimal sleep, solid nutrition, and a reasonable exercise regimen. Once these areas are reached, nootropics may provide additional cognitive enhancement. In the words of many health practitioners, you cannot out-supplement a bad diet. If you are looking for a magic pill (NZT in Bradley Cooper's case), nootropics are not for you. How to Get in Touch with Mansal Denton: Email: mansal@nootropedia.com Instagram: MansalDenton Key Podcast Highlights on Nootropics: Why Mansal spent time in prison and how did it change his life What are some non-nootropic cognitive enhancers people can employ to start The foundations needed to get the most from nootropics What is the difference between Nootropics and Smart Drugs? Is Modafinil the closest thing to NZT? If you considering taking modafinil, you may want to check your COMT gene (rs4680). AA variants tend to barely benefit than others when taking modafinil. Do any long-term studies exist on Nootropics? What is the quality of these studies? What are the Racetams? How can they benefit you? Creatine - it is for more than just bodybuilding Mansal's favorite Nootropics at this moment The importance of cycling nootropics Nootropics: Mansal's friend and caveat emptor What is the Shulgin method?

	12 Mar 2018	Hacking Biology, Ulcers, and Your Work Environment with Teemu Arina	00:54:44
I’ve been interested in optimal performance for quite some time but I was focusing very much into my tools, the way I use technologies, computers, methods and so on. Basically what’s outside of me and how I interact with that world, how I solve problems. I was optimizing the way I work and how I learn and all that. But doing that I discovered that health is also a key component and taking care of your temple - your body - is super important if you want to really perform, ultimately. Affiliate Disclosure About the Guest: Teemu Arina Teemu is Chief Biohacker and Chairman of the board at Biohacker Center, a research center for digital health & wellness. Biohacker Center publishes the Biohacker’s Handbook series, airs the Biohacker’s Podcast, organizes the international Biohacker Summit conference and provides the Upgraded Workplace coaching & work welfare service for companies interested in taking their employee wellness and performance to the next level. In addition, the company organizes online courses, lectures & conference presentations, facilitates business opportunities for digital health & wellness industry members, provides market insights for digital health & wellness product developers and provides consultation services regarding optimal performance and better living through science. Teemu Arina is also co-author of the forthcoming Biohacker’s Handbook for optimizing health and wellbeing with technological and biological tools. Teemu Arina is a popular keynote speaker who has presented internationally in countries such as USA, UK, Japan, Russia, the Netherlands, and Germany. He recently won Speaker of the Year by Speaker's Forum. Mr. Arina has held key advisory positions in national, international and EU development projects on topics related to online collaboration, e-learning, professional development, mobile learning and startup companies. The Hackable Variables in Your Work Environment The Biohacker's Handbook chapter on work (in English) is forthcoming. Ahead of the release of this chapter, Teemu shared his thoughts on the key variables in the work environment which are able to be altered for higher performance. The Problems: Limited Movement Lighting Air Quality Water Quality Stress How to Deal with Workplace Environment Problems: Much of this is discussed in more detail in the podcast episode. Many of us do not move enough throughout the day. Have you ever wondered why your Fitbit or Jawbone asks you to get 10,000 steps? From an evolution perspective, our ancestors moved this much. When you are stuck at a desk during the day, how is this possible to achieve? For one, get a standing desk. A standing desk, or adjustable desk, will force you to get up and move throughout the day. In addition, you can schedule meetings over walks, coffee, or even workouts to get more movement in your day. Our offices beam fluorescent lights throughout the day. While some may leave the office before sundown, others still work well into the night, at home, and even before bed. This is not to mention how you are staring at a screen all day long. To prevent long-term eye damage and get the most from your lights, utilize a one/two punch. Place Iris or F.lux on all of your devices. After you outfit the technology, switch your lights to Philips Hue's lights and have them follow the sun. Studies demonstrate the continued presence of nanoparticles in our air. Some of these nanoparticles, as well as mold and other toxins, end up in our brain and lead to sub-optimal performance. Fix this potential issue by outfitting your office and home with HEPA filters. Much of the United States tap water contains chlorine, fluoride, and potentially heavy metals. Reduce your risks through the use of a water filter. Teemu mentions Brita in the episode. Alternatives include Berkey Water Filters and Therasage (the CEO was on the show to speak about EMF here). Stress can lead to illness. However, stress is also beneficial. Remember the last deadline? As it came closer, the deadline drove you to focus. Much of stresses impact on us has to do with our perception of stress. You build stress resiliency through techniques like meditation and breathing. Key Highlights from Podcasting with Teemu Arina How Teemu discovered biohacking through an ulcer Teemu's anti-inflammatory protocol to deal with an ulcer The benefits of measuring and quantified self to your health How too much exercise can lead to undesired outcomes The impact of lighting and air on your workplace environment Why you should change to a standing, or adjustable, desk How to not quit your job and turn stress into an ally Adaptogenic herbs like Reishi and Rhodiola Rosea as an alternative to tea, coffee, and alcohol Using systems thinking to increase cognition Research Mentioned or Supporting Points Made Steve Jobs Stanford University Commencement Speech 2017 Nobel Prize in Physiology - Chronotypes and Circadian Rhythms associated with the Period Gene Organ lifespan limited to 120-years - published in Nature Magnetite pollution nanoparticles in the human brain - published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences in the United States of America Citrullination of proteins: a common post-translational modification pathway induced by different nanoparticles in vitro and in vivo - Published in NanoMedicine Protecting the melatonin rhythm through circadian healthy light exposure - International Journal of Molecular Sciences Stand More AT Work (SMArT Work): using the behaviour change wheel to develop an intervention to reduce sitting time in the workplace - BMC Public Health Products Mentioned Biohacker's Handbook - co-authored by Teemu Arina F.lux - a blue light protection software.

Recovery What is Teemu's best advice for boosting cognition? Your body is part of a system. Understanding that it operates as a system will lead you to fix your gut microbiome and nutrition before embarking on additional supplements. Once your gut is healed, Teemu recommends balancing blood sugar values. From there, you can look into Lion's Mane or Adaptogenic Herbs. What is the best book Teemu has read on Peak Performance?

	12 Feb 2018	Protecting Your Eyes from Technology with Daniel Georgiev	00:22:48
“The flicker rate is really high that you can’t perceive it but your eyes start to synchronize with this. It’s like pumping in fitness, pumping your muscle. Every second this happens, hundreds of times per second. So we need this flicker rate to be the maximum amount to not feel eye pain.” Daniel Georgiev is the developer of Iris and a native of Bulgaria. Daniel, 22, developed this program after experiencing eye damage at a young age due to excessive amounts of programming. Think of Iris as Flux or Night Shift on steroids. Iris allows you to control the temperature of your screen, the flicker in the background, and the emission of blue light. I use it every single day on my computer, on my phone, and on my iPad. Iris has really revolutionized my relationship with the computer in terms of my day to day work. I am able to work longer, more effectively, and know that my eyes are not getting damaged. Key Highlights: Why computer screens are harming our eyes Blue light and its impact on melatonin secretion The differences between Iris, Flux, and Nightshift How your monitor flickers and why the flicker rate is damaging your eyes What is pulse width modulation The benefits of adjusting your screen’s color temperature based on the day How every profession involving a computer would benefit from Iris, including designers Why Daniel ended up sleeping in his car and showering at the gym when he started Iris The two things Daniel believes everyone should do to increase performance. Research and Links: Daniel’s Ted Talk “How Technology is Killing our Eyes” Blue light’s disruption of melatonin production Iris’ collection of articles on technology and your eyes Dr. Mercola’s article on flicker and how LED compromises your health If you want to try Iris or Iris Pro for yourself, click here. There are both free and paid versions. Iris Mini Pro costs USD 5 and Iris Pro costs USD 10. Considering the amount of time everyone spends in front of the computer, as well as the long-term benefits to your eyes, this is a bargain. Hosted on Acast.

I said I'm in control of my own destiny. And I started focusing on my health instead of the business. It changed my whole world around.” Dr. David Heitmann Who is Dr. David Heitmann The path to high performance doesn't come without bumps in the roads. Dr. Heitmann had 14 broken bones and torn ligaments, his foot chopped up in a lawnmower, nerve traction injuries, debilitating sciatic pain, and even a period in his life which could be described as an "overstressed dark time."

	19 Mar 2018	Redefining Human Potential with Dr. Daniel Stickler	00:35:43
We’ve taken the complexity of the human system and try to make it complicated, which really doesn’t work when you’re looking at wellness, health optimization and really moving the body to a greater potential. So what we decided to do is instead of trying to shift or change the paradigm, we need to create a whole new paradigm. We call it human potential medicine but it’s essentially a systems based precision approach to health optimization. Affiliate Disclosure About the Guest: Dr. Daniel Stickler Dr. Stickler is the visionary pioneer behind the human potential medicine movement, a shift away from the disease model to limitless peak performance in all aspects of life. Dr. Stickler is a physician to high-performing entrepreneurs who want to optimize their performance. He is also an author, speaker, blogger, and host of the Ironman Executive podcast. Dr. Stickler is an expert in the use of genetics and epigenetics in clinical practice and trains healthcare clinicians from all over the world in the interpretation of genomic data for optimizing human potential. Dr. Stickler works with each client to develop personalized human potential optimization plans based on genetics, quality of life factors, and the seven foundational aspects of health. Dr. Stickler also serves as the Medical Director of Neurohacker Collective. Using Epigenetics to Optimize Performance Epigenetics is the study of the changes in organisms caused by modifications in gene expression rather than changes to the underlying genetic code. Our introduction to epigenetics provides a basic overview of epigenetics, epigenetic mechanisms, and lifestyle modifications leading to epigenetic change. The process of individualized health starts with a genetics test. The test provides a blueprint for lifestyle modifications leading to epigenetic change. Epigenetics is a science with 10,000+ peer-reviewed scientific studies released per year. Lifestyle Modifications Leading to Epigenetic Change: Your genetics are not your destiny. Through lifestyle modifications, you can change the expression of your genes. A few examples of lifestyle modification leading to epigenetic change: Intake of Omega 3 fatty acids leads to a change in expression of several hundred genes Chronic exercise changes the expression of almost 7,000 genes Meditation decreases inflammation through a downregulation of pro-inflammatory genes. Key Highlights from this Episode with Dr. Daniel Stickler: What is Human Potential Medicine? Why is epigenetics the systems approach to health? The anti-vegetarian gene: ABCG8 and ABCG5 and how plant sterols may lead to disease states What does Dr. Stickler think of the DIETFITS study and low-carb vs. low-fat? Epigenetics and Red Queen Theory An introduction to transhumanism Epigenetics and Additional Research Mentioned: The associations of cholesterol metabolism and plasma plant sterols with all-cause and cardiovascular mortality Plasma sitosterol elevations are associated with an increased incidence of coronary events in men: Results of a nested case-control analysis of the Prospective Cardiovascular Munster (PROCAM) study DIETFITS Study (Diet Intervention Examining the Factors Interacting With Treatment Success) on low-carb versus low-fat.

No, I'm not married yet. And frankly, before that ring, I hated wearing rings. But I must say the guys that aura have done a great job. The ring allows me to track all sorts of crazy things about my sleep, including my resting heart rate, my deep sleep stages, my REM sleep, etc, etc. I really enjoy the feedback and allows me to to make lifestyle decisions to become a higher performer. Let me give you an example. So prior to getting the ordering, I would fast essentially 16 hours after my last meal. It didn't matter when that last meal was. However, when I look at my resting heart rate, and how that really correlates to my performance The next day, I know I want my lowest resting heart rate coming as soon as possible after going to sleep because that's when all my recovery really starts. So what did I do? Well, it allowed me to adjust really when my last meal was before going to bed. So I have my last meal. Now, earlier in the night, I get better sleep, I get higher quality sleep. And I must say the next day feels amazing. So if you want to check out the Oura Ring and if you want to pick one up yourself, go to ouraring.com and plug in the code Boomer and you'll get $50 off your order or 50 euros, depending on your jurisdiction. I really hope you enjoy the ring and on with the show. Disclaimer This information is being provided to you for educational and informational purposes only.

	02 Apr 2019	Becoming a Ninja: Welcome to Prehab Dojo with Skip Kelly	01:01:39
Skip Kelly is a corrective exercise specialist, trainer of Olympic athletes, and founder and CEO of the Prehab Dojo. Prehabing may help you with current injuries, get you ready for the day, or even improve cognition. “When you're prehabing your spine to decompress it, you're realistically compressing it at a high intensity. That will allow it to decompress itself if it wants to.” Skip Kelly Who is Skip Kelly? Skip Kelly ditched his life being a corrective exercise specialist to travel the globe building education companies and creating world-class courses to eventually return and create a digital product to ensure we all didn’t need professionals like him anymore. Key Highlights of the Podcast: [6:15] Skip's background in hip-hop dancing, training Olympians, etc. [12:17] What is prehab?

No, I’m not married yet. And frankly, before that ring, I hated wearing rings. But I must say the guys at Oura have done a great job. The ring allows me to track all sorts of crazy things about my sleep, including my resting heart rate, my deep sleep stages, my REM sleep, etc, etc. I really enjoy the feedback and allows me to make lifestyle decisions to become a higher performer. Let me give you an example. So prior to getting the Oura Ring, I would fast 16 hours after my last meal. It didn’t matter when that last meal was. When I look at my resting heart rate, and how that really correlates to my performance the next day, I know I want my lowest resting heart rate coming as soon as possible after going to sleep because that’s when all my recovery really starts. So what did I do? Well, it allowed me to adjust really when my last meal was before going to bed. So I have my last meal. Now, earlier in the night, I get better sleep, I get higher quality sleep. And I must say the next day feels amazing. If you want to check out the Oura Ring and if you want to pick one up yourself, go to ouraring.com and plug in the code Boomer and you’ll get $50 off your order or 50 euros, depending on your jurisdiction. I really hope you enjoy the ring. Disclaimer: This information is being provided to you for educational and informational purposes only.

	25 Jun 2018	EZ Water and the NanoVi with Hans Eng	00:38:41
We should not forget that our body, the human body is made out of minimum 900,000 different proteins. Most of the proteins we have no clue about. We know something about 30,000 but more than 850,000 proteins we have no clue about what they are, what they do and where they perform but whenever one of those proteins is losing its function we will run into a problem. Some of these problems we know we call them chronic diseases, we call them fatigue, we would call them lost of performance. We can also say simply we are ageing by losing protein functions because we accumulate more damage. By helping the body to regenerate and to repair those damages you would slow down the process of losing optimal functions. And in some cases we actually can reinstall functions that we lost and we perform better, we feel better, we are better. Affiliate Disclosure About the Guest: Hans Eng Hans Eng is President and CEO of Eng3 Corporation, a Seattle-based company that produces applied biophysics technology for the US and international markets.

	19 Jan 2018	Eliminating Jet Lag with Christopher Babayode	00:33:31
You’re back on that plane again the following week and the next and the next and the next. So you go from something that is acute immediately to something that’s stressful over a long period of time and it’s sort of like a constant issue that you deal with throughout your flying career. This is what I term as jet stress because it’s a stress on the body, it’s continual, and it has a pattern to it that if not dealt with will lead to a breakdown in health, and affect other areas of people’s lives. My guest today is Christopher Babayode. Chris is the author of a book that I enjoy quite a bit - it’s called Farewell Jet Lag: Cures from a Flight Attendant. As you may be able to surmise from the title, Chris is a long time flight attendant for the UK’s largest airline. When I was talking to him, he was flying back and forth between the United States and he does both short-haul and long-haul flights. Chris is also a certified naturopath and operates a clinic in London which helps others, specifically busy business people (say that 5 times fast), customise healthy lifestyles around their business travel. Key Highlights: The difference between jet lag and jet stress Why melatonin and red wine may not be the best option for regulating your circadian rhythms What is the PHARE well system? How eliminating jet lag starts before you get on the plane The minerals Chris recommends to intake to chelate radioactive particles from the body Cited Research: The Use of Transdermal Melatonin to Improve Sleep The Benefits of Earthing for 30 to 45 minutes The Biological Effects of Grounding During Sleep NASA's use of Hydrogen to Battle Radiation Products Mentioned: Onnit Melatonin Spray - Melatonin is a hormone which, among other things, helps drive sleep onset. Ingesting the spray can help signal it is time for sleep. MegaHydrate Body Hydration Antioxidant (60ct) - The H in Chris' PHARE well system is Hydrate. Specifically, Chris' uses MegaHydrate to increase a client's hydration levels so they are able to battle higher levels of cosmic radiation. The product, taken in pill form, mimics glacial runoff water. Berkey Countertop Water Filter - Boomer's favorite water filter for getting rid of fluoride and heavy metal ions. Earthing: The Most Important Health Discovery Ever! - by Clint Ober. It may seem simple, but putting your bare feet on the earth every day has many health benefits. If you want to know more about the science behind earthing, Ober et al delve into it in this book.

But his company raw optics has made blue light blockers sexy. And the beauty of their product is that blue light doesn’t get in. If any amount of blue light gets in, that Netflix show you’re watching late at night, that book that you’re reading on your iPad, that email that you’re answering, is disrupting your sleep. So where do you get yours? Head over to raoptics.com plug in the code Boomer you’ll get 15% off your order.

	25 Sep 2018	The Blueprint for High Performance, Intimacy, and Success in Relationships with Darya Haitoglou	00:55:55
Having enriching, fulfilling relationships is critical when it comes to performance. But the time and attention we invest in our relationships pale in comparison to the focus we give to our work, our hobbies, or even entertainment. Guest Darya Haitoglou shares the strategic steps we can take to erase the early relationship programming we adopted from our parents and how we can repattern our relationship abilities with a relationship blueprint. Find the show notes here — DecodingSuperhuman .com /Darya “We are not taught how to make relationships work. We are generally led by our models of the families we come from, from Mommy and Daddy, and they are not always very helpful, you know, functional. So, we need somebody who walks us through and creates a new, re-patterns our blueprint and creates a new blueprint of relationships.” Who is Darya Haitoglou? A psychologist and a relationship coach, Darya began her career managing international consumer brands for Procter & Gamble in the UK, moved on to become a human resources manager and eventually became the HR Talent leader for the P&G Geneva hub. She quit her lucrative corporate job in Switzerland to move back to the UK and focus on helping transform people’s life and work. With more than ten years of coaching and talent management experience, Darya is the author of a best-selling Enrich Your Relationships book, she also writes for the Huffington Post and has been on BBC morning and evening radio shows.

Working across different countries and speaking five languages, as well as being a mother of two, she is valued for her skills in helping leaders enrich relationships and build successful and meaningful businesses through focusing on their personal growth. What is a Healthy Relationship? Everybody has a slightly different meaning of what a healthy relationship is. A healthy relationship is one that brings a person fulfillment and happiness and serves as the foundation of success in life. Having a relationship blueprint that works for both parties is the first step towards a healthy relationship because the hardest part of our lives is to be in a relationship.

Find the show notes here — DecodingSuperhuman .com /Marcus “When people experience burnout, whether it’s in the corporate world or whether it’s in training and sport, it's the culmination of too much stress in their life and basically their systems can't keep up.

He has gone on to compete at the CrossFit Games 6 times, three times as an individual (2016 12th fittest) and three times as a team member (2012 6th fittest team). Marcus is also the captain and member of the Phoenix Rise in the NPGL.

	10 Sep 2019	Road Warrior Essentials	00:59:55
Andreas Breitfeld discusses perpetual jetlag, life without hormones, and recovery from the road. As the Head of KTC Lab, Andreas created an incredible EMF-blocking travel pant to benefit road warriors worldwide. Who is Andreas Breitfeld? No question, traveling is fun and what better way to broaden your horizons than by traveling the world? If you want to get to know other people, cultures and other markets, you have to leave your home behind from time to time. When Andreas started his own business about 15 years ago with a PR and marketing agency, it was clear to me from the very beginning how important it was to be as close as possible to everything that was happening in my industry around the globe. The concept worked and with the success of the agency, Andreas' travel volume increased as well. In some years, Andreas visited the USA, Canada, China and South Korea more often than France or Italy in his entire life. At some point, Andreas realized that adapting to new time zones was harder and harder. He had massive problems recovering at all. Increasing sleep problems, food intolerances, heavy metal poisoning, leaky gut, too much cortisol at first, then probably no cortisol at all at some point - his lifestyle took its toll. Andreas' travel problems peaked parallel to the introduction of the Skynet, i.e. the wireless networks in the airplane. Andreas sat one day in Thailand at the beach and had to admit to himself that, despite the success, he was physically and increasingly mentally completely down. Andreas began to do research and was amazed at much of the knowledge he gained. And he realized that he needed help. Luckily Andreas found understanding, the right support and the way (back) to biohacking. This already fascinated him as the first fitness editor of Shape magazine. As in the past, it fascinates Andreas not only to understand things theoretically, but also to try them out in practice. Thanks to a happy combination of perseverance and willingness to take risks, Andreas managed to get back to his starting point within nine months. As Head of the Lab at KTC LAB, Andreas sees it as his task to collect and pass on knowledge, experiences, and tips on the subject of "safer and better travel". In addition, Andreas is pleased that through and together with KTC Unlimited he have the opportunity to develop textile solutions for a wide variety of biohacks. KTC Lab is currently working on the completion of a collection that will not only enable frequent flyers to shield their bodies from additional stressors such as EMFs. KTC Lab is also exploring strategies to accelerate regeneration and provide all the tools to meet the challenges of an active, global lifestyle.

I’ve had the CEO Matt Maruca on the show before and we got into a two-hour long discussion, which I think to this day is the longest episode of the Decoding Superhuman podcast. But his company raw optics has made blue light blockers sexy. And the beauty of their product is that blue light doesn’t get in. If any amount of blue light gets in, that Netflix show you’re watching late at night, that book that you’re reading on your iPad, that email that you’re answering, is disrupting your sleep.

	15 Oct 2019	The Holobiont Hacker: Part 1 with Dr. Ted Achacoso	01:06:10
This is part one of a two-part episode with Dr. Ted Achacoso. In this recording, Dr. Achacoso blows me away with his ability to distill knowledge into actionable and usable information. Part one is a discussion around complex systems, consciousness, health optimization medicine, and eliminating jet lag. Who is Dr. Ted Achacoso? Dr. Ted Achacoso earned his college degree in Biology at the age of 18 and his Doctor of Medicine degree at the age of 22. At 25, he was a fellow of interventional neuroradiology, a research professor of pharmacology and toxicology, and a clinical professor of neurology in Manila. At 28, he became a professor of medical informatics and of interventional neuroradiology in Washington, DC, where he also performed artificial intelligence research biased towards connectionist systems. At 30, he began science and technology consulting for socially responsible investment funds. At 35, he founded and ran a group collaboration software company and created the first wireless groupware. At 40 he traded currencies using artificial intelligence predictive techniques for a private fund. At 45, he retrained in Interventional Endocrinology (Anti-Aging Medicine) and in Nutritional Medicine in Paris, and became double board-certified in both specialties. Dr. Ted wrote the first-ever connectome (of C. elegans) in a book, is published in peer-reviewed scientific journals, holds US patents and software algorithms, provides TV and podcast interviews, and delivers lectures. He currently has a tri-continental practice in Health Optimization Medicine (HOMe), a clinical framework that he pioneered to include health management in a disease management practice. He also formulated the Blue Cannatine nootropic troche, a product in the Troscriptions line of Smarter Not Harder, Inc. What is Health Optimization Medicine (HOMe)? Health Optimization Medicine (HOMe) is a new specialty that takes care of the health of the basic cell that is common to all cells in the body --- the nucleus, cytoplasm, mitochondria and other organelles, cell membrane, endoplasmic reticulum, cytoplasm, microtubules, etc --- which forms the base of specialized cells like muscle cells and neurons, and which in turn, makes up the specialized organs in the body like the heart and the brain. HOMe is for physicians and HOPe (Health Optimization Practice) is for non-physician healthcare practitioners. “Illness Medicine” diagnoses and treats disease at the level of the organ, for example, cardiology and neurology. In contrast, “Health Optimization Medicine” detects and corrects imbalances at the level of the metabolome, for example, intra-cellular mitochondrial metabolites, extra-cellular microbial metabolites, and inter-cellular neurohormones. HOMe and HOPe use the sciences of Clinical Metabolomics, Epigenetics, Bioenergetics, Gut Immune System, Exposomics, Chronobiology, and Evolutionary Medicine – subjects currently not taught in medical and allied health schools. The science of HOMe/HOPe is “network-wide range shifting,” meaning shifting the objectively detected levels of metabolites, especially of the major hormone and nutrient networks, into the optimal ranges seen in healthy adults aged 21 to 30. This means that HOMe/HOPe does not use the same reference ranges for laboratory tests used in Illness Medicine, for example, for hyper- or hypothyroidism. This also means that an entire metabolic subnetwork of values is shifted and not just one value, for example, in nutrient optimization, Vitamin E is never given singly but always in relation to the measured levels of all the other major antioxidants in the Antioxidant Regeneration Pathway. Since manipulating one node within a network contextually affects the other nodes to which it is connected, the art of HOMe/HOPe is in manipulating the metabolic subnetwork such that borderline deficiencies and subtle toxicities are corrected to the point of concomitant subjective increase in well-being and health, for example, experiencing increased libido and decreased frequency of self-limiting infectious illnesses. Whereas Illness Medicine is after diagnosis and treatment of disease, lifespan, and quantity, Health Optimization Medicine and Practice is after detection and correction of imbalances, healthspan, and quality. Illness Medicine asks for Immortality. Health Optimization Medicine and Practice asks for Eternal Youth. Together they provide the full spectrum of health care. Highlights [10:02] The tools required to eliminate jet lag [19:59] Curiosity as a continuous motivator [25:03] 6 Degrees of Kevin Bacon and mapping your nervous system [32:23] Holobiont vs. Super Organism [37:58] The mathematics of consciousness [47:18] Defining Health Optimization Medicine [59:24] Anti-aging and being optimized and ripped at age 58 Resources Health Optimization Medicine Blue Cannatine Computer Representation of the Synaptic Connectivity of Caenorhabditis Elegans Scaling up the nervous system of Caenorhabditis elegans: Is one ape equal to 33 million worms?

	05 Nov 2019	HRV: Your Most Important Marker with Jason Moore	01:11:03
In this episode, Jason and I will dive in deeper into things like what gadgets you should be using to measure your heart rate variability, how to evaluate these gadgets, and why some of the more popular ones may not be the best source for getting the most accurate HRV data. We will also talk about something that has surfaced recently and is called resonant breathing frequency and why I am obsessed with this ever since I heard about it. And finally, Jason explains the most beneficial aspects and features of the Elite HRV app and how accessible they are to you. Who is Jason Moore? Jason Moore is the Director and Instructor of National Academy of Sports Medicine (NASM) and National Strength and Conditioning Association (NSCA) accredited coursework on Heart Rate Variability (HRV). Founder of Elite HRV, the most widely used free HRV analysis tool.

This episode takes you through how Patrick discovered his heart disease and discovering what he calls the seven-headed dragon. Patrick shares his knowledge of dynamic systems to reverse a seemingly irreversible health condition. Patrick shares his strategic use of a ketogenic diet when looking at cardiovascular disease as well as one meal a day eating. Who is Patrick Theut? Patrick is a biochemist that has vested in over 16,000 hours of study, spread over many years in order to address and resolve his extensive plaque buildup in the Left Main coronary artery of his heart. He has been observing his medical condition for many years and has discovered long-forgotten literature associated with Vitamin K and how the Vitamin K is key for his treatment of his Coronary artery disease, but he was actually taking only a fraction of the dosage needed to help. To battle with his serious medical condition, he had started researching various cures, aids and supplementations and what was their direct impact on his health. Patrick is an engineer who has successfully managed to reverse his coronary artery disease. Patrick is the founder of the Track Your Plaque group where they track different heavy conditions that can be impacted by the Vitamin K. Highlights [3:50] How did Patrick find out he had heart disease and how it affected him? [19:33] Heart disease as a gut bacteria problem and surface chemistry problem. [25:20] What is fetuin a? [28:09] What is the purpose of LDL and HDL? [31:44] Why Patrick hasn't brushed his teeth in 10 years. [48:48] Why is a ketogenic diet so important here?

I have gone through bottles and bottles and bottles and bottles and paid countless taxes to import vitamin K and smaller doses. But Patrick makes high dose Vitamin K and produces it at a very, very reasonable cost. If you go to his website k-vitamins.com you can check out Koncentrated K and pick them up for yourself. Patrick's giving me no compensation for this. He did not ask for this, but I'm giving it to you because I think it's important that if you want to source high dose vitamin K, you know where to get it.

This episode will take you through Dr. Aubrey de Grey’s Seven Pillars of aging, the research that he's currently doing, his opinion on biological age, AGEs and the different sources, and the impact of growth hormone on biological age. Who is Dr. Aubrey de Grey? Aubrey de Grey is an English author and biomedical gerontologist. He is the Chief Science Officer of the SENS Research Foundation and VP of New Technology Discovery at AgeX Therapeutics, Inc. He is the editor-in-chief of the academic journal Rejuvenation Research, author of The Mitochondrial Free Radical Theory of Aging and co-author of Ending Aging. He is known for his view that medical technology may enable human beings alive today not to die from age-related causes.

	03 Dec 2019	The Amazing Health Benefits Of Algae with Catharine Arnston	01:06:24
Let's discuss all things algae. We dive deep into chlorella and spirulina discussing the benefits of both. Catherine Arnston joins the show to speak about the use and the effect on algae in different diets. Who is Catharine Arnston? Catharine Arnston started ENERGYbits after her sister was diagnosed with breast cancer and advised by her oncologist that an alkaline diet would help her heal. Catharine immediately sprung into action to help her sister research alkaline foods and in the process she discovered algae. When Catharine learned that algae was the most alkaline, plant-based, nutrient-dense food in the world and had been used for fifty years in Asia to improve health and longevity, she knew she had discovered something big (and yes, her sister fully recovered - thanks for asking). As Catharine dug into the science of algae, she learned it had 64% protein, 40 vitamins/minerals and was endorsed by the United Nations and NASA as the most nutrient-dense food in the world. She also discovered there were 100,000 studies documenting its long list of benefits and it was the most sustainable, eco-friendly food crop in the world. And yet algae remained virtually unknown outside of Asia. How could this be possible? Catharine knew algae could be a game-changer for our health, our children and our world if she could only convince people it wasn't weird. And so ENERGYbits was born. It took Catharine eight years to bring algae into the mainstream and build ENERGYbits into a national company. We're glad she finally did because now you and your family can benefit from our naturally grown, toxin-free, Non-GMO algae tablets too. A handful will help satisfy your hunger, help give you steady energy, and help ensure your nutritional needs are met. All this from a food that has one ingredient, no chemicals, caffeine, sugar or processing and is the most sustainable, safe, eco-friendly, crop in the world - algae. Highlights [2:30] What is algae and why should it be a part of a human’s diet? [6:30] The differences between algae and seaweed [8:10] Overview of spirulina [15:41] The health benefits of chlorella [25:57] How did Catharine get into algae? [31:50] The process of cracking the hard cell wall of chlorella [37:23] How can we get K2 from algae? [42:29] What are phytonutrients?

	09 Dec 2019	Longevity, Lectins, and LPS with Dr. Steven Gundry	00:50:02
International bestselling author Dr. Steven Gundry joins the show to talk about all things lectins: how to test, why we should avoid lectins, and why there are certain types of lectins that are worse than others. In addition, we talk about the carnivore diet, peptides, and alcohol. Who is Dr. Steven Gundry? Dr. Steven Gundry is a renowned heart surgeon, celebrity doctor, medical researcher and a New York Times best-selling author. Dr. Gundry worked in medicine for over 40 years. He’s probably best known for the work as a cardiothoracic surgeon and heart surgeon… but today his focus is on something very different: In 2002 Gundry abandoned his career as a cardiothoracic surgeon to establish The Center for Restorative Medicine, claiming to have discovered some unconventional truths about human nutrition. He has since authored two books focused on food-based health interventions, recommending a plant-based diet. You might have read his books, “The Plant Paradox: The Hidden Dangers in “Healthy” Food That Cause Disease and Weight Gain” and he’s now tackling gut health and many of the myths surrounding healthy aging in “The Longevity Paradox: How to Die Young at a Ripe Old Age.” He’s a leading expert on the lectin-free diet and believes we have the ability to heal ourselves through nutrition when certain dietary obstacles are removed. Dr. Gundry’s mission is to improve people’s health, happiness, and longevity by making simple changes to the human diet. He’s the Director and Founder of the International Heart & Lung Institute as well as the Center for Restorative Medicine in Palm Springs and Santa Barbara, CA. Every day at these offices, Dr. Gundry helps patients learn how to take control of their weight, health, and energy by using his surprisingly simple diet advice. Highlights [2:57] Dr. Gundry explains what is the holobiome [5:34] Discussing what are lectins [15:04] The types of food that should be avoided [20:54] Testing for lectin sensitivity [27:31] Theories for coronary artery disease and cardiovascular disease [31:36] Genetics predisposition to lectin sensitivity [38:51] Carnivore diet for people with autoimmune conditions [43:18] Glyphosate in wine Resources The Plant Paradox Quick and Easy: The 30-Day Plan to Lose Weight, Feel Great, and Live Lectin-Free The Plant Paradox Family Cookbook: 80 One-Pot Recipes to Nourish Your Family Using Your Instant Pot, Slow Cooker, or Sheet Pan The Longevity Paradox: How to Die Young at a Ripe Old Age Dr. Gundry's Diet Evolution: Turn Off the Genes That Are Killing You and Your Waistline The End of Alzheimer's by Dale Bredesen Elevated Adiponectin And Tnf-alpha Levels Are Markers For Gluten And Lectin Sensitivity Our sponsor today is CAR.O.L You don’t have time for that 45 minute jog.

	24 Dec 2019	Exploring the Next Frontier: a Deep Dive Into Peptides with Jean Francois Tremblay	01:48:58
Peptides and performance enhancing drugs are an often-misunderstood topic. Jean-Francois Tremblay discusses the differences between SARMs and Peptides, the repairing peptides (BPC157), growth hormone, and many others. Who is Jean-Francois Tremblay? Jean-François Tremblay studied Exercise Physiology, Biochemistry, and Pharmacy. He is now, a student and researcher at UQAM. He has been researching (in theory and in practice) peptides and SARMS since the 90s and published multiple studies on this matter, based on his own research. He had been studying the theoretical basis on what peptides are and their practical applications in sports performance, anti-aging, and health in general. His most recent work has been based on the premisses that the loss of muscle function (loss of muscle mass (sarcopenia), muscle strength (dynapenia) and muscle quality (muscle strength / mass)) begins at the age of 30 and continues exponentially with age in all the individuals. The mechanisms responsible for the loss of muscle function in the elderly are not yet well known, but probably involve various systems (physiological and neuromuscular) and this, in particular, is the main object of study of the CanLab laboratory. Jean Francois Tremblay is a biochemist that has dealt with peptide, SARMS, both in theory and in practice since the early 1990s. Highlights [3:23] What are peptides [8:18] The various effects that peptides can provide for people [13:32] The FDA and a potential for Peptide Bans.

	31 Mar 2020	Beyond Paleo: A Conversation on Adversity, Relationships, and Growth with Keith Norris	01:39:51
Keith Norris, Co-Founder of Paleo f(x), joins for a thoughtful conversation on psychedelics, what it's like to confront and overcome fear, and what it’s like to be in business with your significant other. Who is Keith Norris? Keith Norris is one of those few lucky souls who has been able to completely transition out of corporate America and dive headlong into his passion for bettering lives by teaching the art and science of physical culture. He not only “walks the walk” on a day-to-day basis, but his economic well-being hinges on his precepts of “proper exercise, stellar diet and lifestyle, and intelligent “hacks” and supplementation” forming the bedrock foundation for a long, healthy and prosperous life. Keith, together with partner Mark Alexander, have molded Austin-based Efficient Exercise into one of the most highly regarded fitness venues in the nation. Keith’s mix of intelligent and highly effective exercise programming, coupled with Mark’s business savvy and proprietary equipment genius have made Efficient Exercise the preeminent wellness authority. The very essence of Paleo f(x)™ is rooted in the idea of putting theory to practice; an idea that Keith is heavily invested in, having been blogging about these issues since early 2007. And his “30-thousand-foot view” for the Paleo f(x)™ enterprise serves as the movement’s guiding, north star. And with a belief that intelligent “hacks” can help bridge the gap between our elegant evolutionary programming and sub-par environmental surroundings, Keith is continually ferreting out and backing the most promising of technological enhancements. As a founding partner of ID Life, Keith is helping to usher-in 21st century, optimal supplement dosing. It might be said that Keith lives by the credo written by the Greek poet and soldier, Archilochus, over 2,600 years ago – “We do not rise to the level of our expectations. We fall to the level of our training”. And his vision for Paleo f(x)™ is that of a battle-tested warrior, preserving the right of everyone to fully, actively and enthusiastically engage in the human experience.

	07 Apr 2020	The X Factor: Using the Somavedic to Harmonize Your Environment and Replenish Your Health with Juraj Kocar	00:55:21
Juraj Kocar, CEO of Somavedic, talks about the benefits of precious metals and stones. Juraj explains geopathic stress and EMF awareness and how Somavedic helps relieve the effects of it. He covers the benefits of structured water and the different applications of their devices. Who is Juraj Kocar? Juraj Kocar is an endless optimist with a passion to build and grow projects with meaning. He’s currently working on his dream project - Somavedic. A functional and broadly accessible frequency therapy device harmonizing the negative effects of EMF on our bodies. Somavedic is helping people to sleep better and to have more energy and focus during the day. His journey began 10 years ago, as Juraj Kocar was struggling with high blood pressure, chest pain, and constant dizziness. So he went to the doctor, as we’ve been taught to do, and he was given pills to treat those symptoms. When he asked how long he should take them, they said he’d take the pills for the rest of his life. A life sentence of pharmaceuticals didn’t cut it for him. So Juraj started researching and dabbling in biohacking, which led him down the deep, dark hole of electromagnetic frequencies (EMFs) and discovering the Somavedic. He ended up joining the company after the device changed his life, and he’s now the CEO. Highlights [4:06] How Somavedic started [14:26] How Juraj got involved with Somavedic [21:44] Personal experience with Somavedic [23:51] Effects of precious stones [28:12] Benefits of structured water [31:05] EMF Awareness [37:20] Different Somavedic Models [41:43] Somavedic against parasites and viruses Resources The Hidden Messages in Water by Masaru Emoto EMF Practical Guide by Lloyd Burrell The Fourth Phase of Water: Beyond Solid, Liquid, and Vapor What is Structured Water?

That may sound a little out there, but there’s been a lot of research validating the properties of minerals and the effect of their specific vibrations on the ambient environment and the human body — not to mention the thousands of years that humans have used crystals for a variety of purposes.

Sleek, minimalist design. Safe, comfortable, beautiful. And one of the things that I have running almost consistently in the morning is my Sauna Space Photon Light. And that light is something that I meditate in front of. I used to heal myself faster post workouts, and sometimes I just throw it in front of my face, because it feels freakin’ good. And so the guys over at Sauna Space are just truly awesome. We’ve had Brian Richards on the show before talking about Sauna Space technologies and products, and he provided us a discount for all Decoding Superhuman listeners by using the code SUPERHUMAN. Somavedic Somavedic is a functional and broadly accessible frequency therapy device harmonizing the negative effects of EMF on our bodies by leveraging the principle of controlled release of energy from minerals, combining an Eastern medicine approach with frequency therapy technology. That may sound a little out there, but there’s been a lot of research validating the properties of minerals and the effect of their specific vibrations on the ambient environment and the human body — not to mention the thousands of years that humans have used crystals for a variety of purposes. If you want to try it out yourself, you can get 10% off using the promo code BOOMER at somavedic.com.
