In this episode of Biohacking Blondes, we sit down with Karim Chubin, a Swiss naturopath, nutritionist, and founder of a pioneering breathing lounge in Geneva. Trained in Russia, Germany, and the U.S., Karim integrates adaptogenic medicine, emotional mapping, and mitochondrial therapies into a powerful, nature-rooted approach to healing.

Karim shares how his own health journey—including a post-COVID recovery—led him to explore the power of oxygen-based therapies like intermittent hypoxia-hyperoxia training (IHT). We unpack how Cellit IHT works at the cellular level to support mitochondrial resilience, enhance oxygen efficiency, and regulate stress, and how it’s now expanding from Europe to the U.S.

But this conversation goes far beyond technology. Karim offers an intimate look at his daily rituals—like starting the morning with classical music, using red light therapy, and fueling his body with broths, sardines, and mineral-rich whole foods. He reflects on the limitations of data-driven wellness, the overstimulation of modern life, and why true healing requires emotional clarity, environmental simplicity, and deep inner stillness.

Key Takeaways

• How Cellit IHT enhances energy, focus, and resilience through oxygen modulation

• What makes Cellit different from other hypoxic devices and protocols

• Karim’s thoughts on emotional stagnation, mitochondrial dysfunction, and why the two are often connected

• The ancestral foods he relies on daily for gut and brain health

• Why music, light, and contrast are his favorite “free biohacks”

• How he balances high-tech modalities with intuition and simplicity

• The cultural divide between European and American wellness trends

• His vision for breathing lounges in the U.S. and practitioner training opportunities
