Biohacking vs. Anti-Biohacking


Listen Later

Opening with a discussion on internet hate comments and toxicity, Alex and Meredith tackle the issue of biohacking, what it is, and its pros and cons. With online influencers and fitness professionals promoting DIY biology, it can be difficult to uncover what lifestyle changes will actually bring health benefits and what changes are simply unreasonable to pursue in one's daily life. With their background in health and nutrition, Alex and Meredith try to uncover what is myth and what is fact, and what you can realistically start doing to improve your health today.
