Listen Later

Joe Cohen's journey to optimal health is a story of self-discovery and a drive to find answers beyond conventional medicine. Struggling with chronic health issues like fatigue, inflammation, and brain fog, Joe took charge of his health by diving into genetics, biomarkers, and biohacking.

A Start of Struggle: The Search for Answers

Joe's early attempts to seek help from mainstream doctors were unfruitful. Frustrated, he embarked on self-experimentation. He started with lifestyle changes like intermittent fasting and cold plunges, which offered some relief. However, it was when Joe incorporated supplements into his regimen that he began to experience more significant improvements.

The Quest for Scientific Answers

Determined to understand his body, Joe turned to scientific resources like PubMed and Wikipedia. He discovered that health protocols were not one-size-fits-all. Joe tried various diets, such as veganism and the Bulletproof Diet, but ultimately found success with a carnivore and lectin-free approach. He realized that his body didn't respond well to grains and legumes, leading him to adopt a lectin-avoidance diet early on.

The Power of Genetics and Personalized Experimentation

Joe realized that understanding his individual biology was key. He learned that genetic factors, such as immune system dominance, played a crucial role in how his body reacted to different foods and supplements. This led to the development of SelfDecode, a platform providing genetic insights for personalized health optimization. He found that genetic testing, combined with lab testing and supplements, offered a holistic approach.

Supplementation: The Game Changer

For Joe, supplementation became a cornerstone of his biohacking strategy. He believes supplements have had the most significant impact on his health. With over 160 supplements in his daily regimen, Joe emphasizes the importance of understanding which supplements are best for an individual’s unique needs. He encourages guided experimentation to find the right mix, considering genetics, biomarkers, and personal health goals.

The Future of Biohacking: AI, Genetics, and Longevity

Joe envisions a future where breakthroughs in organ replacement and genetic manipulation could significantly extend human lifespan. He also sees AI playing a crucial role in improving genetic research, health recommendations, and biohacking strategies.

The Key to Rewiring Your Health

Joe Cohen’s journey shows that optimizing your health requires scientific inquiry, personalized experimentation, and an open mind toward biohacking tools. By understanding your body deeply and embracing self-experimentation, you can create a health protocol tailored to your unique needs.

In this podcast, you'll learn:

  • How Joe took control of his health when conventional medicine failed him.

  • The power of personalized supplements and why they are crucial for optimal health.

  • Why understanding your unique biology and genetics is essential for health optimization.

  • How Joe developed a lectin-free diet before it became mainstream and why it worked for him.

  • Joe's vision for the future of biohacking, including AI and genetic manipulation for longevity.
