Biohacking involves making lifestyle and nutrition changes to optimize health and longevity, such as diet tweaks and supplement use.

Biohacking aims to improve quality of life by lowering morbidity rate through methods like intermittent fasting, sleep, hydration, and physical training.

Popular biohacking methods include cold-water therapy, removing inflammatory foods, and using supplements like collagen, protein, and MCT oil, as well as sauna use.

Biohacking can be dangerous if not done properly, and excessive vitamin intake can cause health problems, including vitamin poisoning and organ damage.

Individuals should consult healthcare professionals before starting any biohacking regimen to receive personalized and evidence-based advice.

Genetic testing, including Whole Genome Sequencing, can inform personalized biohacking plans and identify biological needs and deficiencies.

A healthy diet with fruits and vegetables supports overall health, reducing the need for supplements and risk of adverse effects.

Blood tests and understanding physiology are crucial for effective biohacking, allowing healthcare professionals to develop personalized plans based on individual health risks and needs.

Vitamin D supports bone health and muscle strength, but excess intake can cause mood disorders, heart issues, and pain, requiring cautious supplementation.

Omega-3 fatty acids support heart and brain health, but high doses may increase bleeding risk, especially with anticoagulants, and require medical consultation.

Probiotics can interact with vitamin D and omega-3 supplements, requiring careful management and consultation with a healthcare professional.

Biohacking may not be suitable for everyone and should be done under healthcare professional guidance, especially for those without medical exemptions who should also get vaccinated.

Proper nutrition, training, and genetic testing are key to developing effective personalized biohacking plans that address health risk factors.

Take a quick search for “biohacker” on TikTok (a tag with over 137 million views), and you’ll discover a slew of men discussing their muscle gains, testosterone levels, and cold plunge routines. You’ll see some women on the page, but the space is undoubtedly dominated by male energy. And think of the outspoken biohackers you may listen to on podcasts—chances are most of them are men, too.

This gendered approach to biohacking, while pervasive, is simply misguided. But now, women are asserting their authority in health optimization, and we expect their emphasis to soar in the year ahead.

Why biohacking isn’t just for “bros”

“Women are the original biohackers,” declares family physician, Molly Maloof, M.D. “Our hormones change throughout our lives, and this requires us to adapt accordingly.” Our biology means that women often need to constantly edit their health routines and experiment with lifestyle habits as time goes on. Isn’t that the very definition of biohacking?

Let's back up: Here at mindbodygreen, we think of “biohacking” as the practice of making lifestyle tweaks to optimize health and promote longevity. Not shortcuts—contrary to popular belief—but low-lift, everyday habits that complement and enhance an existing well-being routine. Think: optimizing your exercise regimen using tools and techniques (the “biohacks”) to enhance muscle growth. It’s essentially all about advancing health with “do it yourself” biology—a topic that can pique anyone’s interest, regardless of gender.

“[Women] have a most complex physiological lifecycle that requires us to track and manage fertility, pregnancy, breastfeeding, sexuality, perimenopause, and menopause. So we should be looking at biohacking as a path to even greater health and owning the opportunity to improve our lives,” says Maloof.

Yet many women feel intimidated to enter the biohacking scene as it exists today, turned off by the male-dominated energy in the room.

Women are the original biohackers

Molly Maloof, M.D

“Biohacking has always grabbed my attention, and I want to learn, but it sometimes makes me really stressed out, because I go into this state of perfectionism where I have to do all the things,” says doctor of pharmacy and wellness practitioner Mona Vand, PharmD. “The few biohackers that I followed were all males… it just doesn't really resonate with my energy.”

This male energy is not only frustrating but can potentially harm women’s health in the long run. After all, building muscle, prioritizing protein, and keeping an eye on various health metrics are crucial for longevity—in some cases, these proactive measures can save lives. When women don’t get involved, it can totally impact their well-being.

“Physical strength is nonnegotiable,” says functional medicine doctor Gabrielle Lyon, D.O. “I've been a physician since 2006, and I've never heard someone say, ‘I regret being physically strong.’” And the muscle-building space impacts more than just physiological changes, she says. “You optimize fertility, you make healthier babies, you help the epigenetics of your child,” Lyon adds. “You age better, your skin is better, you're less likely to fall and break a hip… There's nothing that doesn't get better the stronger you are.”

So let’s be clear: Dismantling the biohacking boy’s club is not just about helping women feel included; there are real health implications at stake here.

Why the biohacker space actually really needs a dose of feminine energy

I’d be remiss not to mention how biohacking culture can easily become synonymous with hustle culture (some experts don’t even like to use the term, as it implies you can achieve optimal health with quick fixes). But as more women enter the biohacking space, we expect it to become more intuitive and less about hitting every single benchmark. From there, we predict women will focus more on sustainable changes long-term instead of a gazillion quick hacks.

“I used to think it was a flex to do a million things at the same time and habit stack,” Vand recounts. “I now carve out time for doing things that have no efficiency to them, that are strictly for joy or rest and relaxation, versus benefiting my longevity or health. It can be a little bit obsessive when you get into this thought pattern, and I just don't resonate with it.”

This doesn’t mean biohacking will become “softer” as it embraces feminine energy. But there’s an opportunity here for women to introduce some much-needed flexibility into a space that has long felt needlessly rigid.

How the biohacker game is changing — and where it’s headed next

Thanks to a growing awareness that healthcare protocols should not be gendered, more women are now starting to pay attention to markers of performance like lean muscle, hormetic stressors, VO2 max, HRV, zone 2 training, etc. “Cold plunging, saunas, and harder, more physical activities are not just for the boys anymore,” adds Lyon—and we expect an even bigger shift to come in 2024.

“I think it’s super exciting to see biohacking become more mainstream and more women joining the conversation,” adds Maloof. She praises apps like Wild.AI, for women who aim to make lifestyle adjustments based on their menstrual cycle, and Zero, for women who want to dabble in time-restricted eating, both of which have helped to herald the shift.

Other existing health optimization companies are now inviting women into the conversation by introducing specific features informed by their unique physiology. WHOOP, for example, is currently working on upgrades to their popular health-tracking band: “We did a study recently where we learned a lot about how a woman's body changes during pregnancy and how her heart rate variability (HRV) will evolve. It'll decrease, and then about seven weeks before she gives birth, it will increase sharply,” explains Will Ahmed, WHOOP founder and CEO, on the mindbodygreen podcast

If a woman didn’t know that this was supposed to happen, she might look at this stark increase with a critical (or anxious) eye. “We've been able to take population-level data on pregnant women and now have a feature in the app, where a woman can see how her body is evolving alongside what other pregnant women are experiencing,” he adds.

Similarly, creatine supplements—from the ingredients to the packaging—are no longer marketed toward dudes looking to bulk up, and we are certainly here for it. After all, muscle mass is a predictor of longevity and healthspan, so supplements that promote it can help all of us “hack” our health in a big way.

And as Lyon notes, women have lower endogenous creatine stores compared to men (meaning, they have less available). And the amino acid has been associated with significantly increased muscle mass1 in both men and women, without increasing the risk of adverse outcomes2, like weight gain. “Most of the women in my practice will go on creatine, and they find anecdotally that it really improves both anaerobic and aerobic exercise performance,” Lyon shares.

Not to mention the supplement’s brain health perks: Taking creatine has been shown to benefit both working memory and processing speed3 as well as cognitive longevity4. “It is above and beyond simply sport performance,” adds Lyon, who has certainly seen an uptick in women curious about creatine.

As women feel intimidated (or even restricted) by biohacking spaces, some experts have taken it upon themselves to create new ones that center the feminine. For example, neuropsychophysiologist Kayla Osterhoff, MPH, offers a Women's Biohacking Mini Course, consisting of lifestyle routines and tips aligned with female physiology.

Osterhoff also recently presented at the 2023 Dragonfly Live Conference—among other female biohackers—to discuss the latest advancements in women's well-being and the “health revolution” that’s sweeping the mainstream. This conference aims to gather the “who's-who” in the health space to discuss cutting-edge strategies and innovations that optimize well-being—by having women biohackers at the forefront of the conversation, we can expect them to hit the main stage in a broader sense.

Or take the brand new Evie Ring, the first medical-grade health wearable designed for women, created by medical device company Movano Health. The technology ties hormonal information to a woman’s sleep, activity, and heart health data (among other metrics).

For instance, “If we notice a more restless night of sleep in the luteal phase, we'll point it out and also give some strategies for how somebody may attack their day, despite having not gotten as good of a night of sleep,” says Stacy Salvi, vice president of product and strategy at Movano Health. Similarly, “We know that there are cardiovascular implications when your estrogen drops, so they would want to keep a better look on the function of their heart,” she adds. “This would be something that they would be able to do from our app.”

Even the design itself was made with women in mind: The ring features an open band meant to accommodate how women’s fingers change in size throughout the day, so it can stay comfortable.

To avoid needless stress, Evie also limits the amount of goals you can set on the app. “You can only set three at a time, because we do not want to overwhelm [users] with a bunch of different things,” says Salvi. “I mean, I'm an overachiever. I probably would set every single goal and then fail at them.” And heaven knows we don’t need yet another way for busy, overwhelmed women to feel like they’re failing in a society with unsurmountable standards.

Forecasting the future

A woman walks up to the weight rack in 2024. She sees the usual suspects—bros pounding protein shakes and grunting through their bicep curls—but now she also sees a fair amount of women on the scene. They’ve got creatine supplements! Fitness trackers! Kettlebells! (And no, they aren’t pink.)

Granted, we still have a ways to go before women feel totally embraced by the biohacking space (we’d first have to close the centuries-long gender gap in science and medicine), but it’s clear that the arena is becoming way less of a boy’s club. “And the world is ready, my friend,” says Lyon. “The world is absolutely ready for this.”

Content: TV legend Davinia Taylor has revealed how well she is feeling after undertaking a new lifestyle that involves biohacking.

Biohacking occurs when someone changes their nutrition and lifestyle in order to make themselves healthier. Each person who biohacks does so in a different way whether it’s cutting out alcohol, taking supplements, or engaging in anti-ageing procedures.

Davinia – who starred in Hollyoaks – has explained that her biohacking involves cold-water therapy and removing inflammatory foods from her diet.

As a result of her new lifestyle, which also includes the use of saunas and supplements, Davinia has said that she now feels healthier than she ever has before.

Speaking to Hello! Davinia said that she entered a difficult period of poor mental health after the death of her mother when she was 35.

She added: “Boredom drove me to drink and then to eat unhealthily. I don’t want to go into my 50s feeling bored, so I had to find another way to get the dopamine I crave.”

On the techniques she uses for her biohacking, Davinia reveals that one of her routine acts is taking supplements from a company she founded. Known as WillPowders which contain collagen, protein, bone broth, and MCT (a healthy form of saturated fat) they have become an essential part of her routine.

Davinia explained: “If I don’t have my morning keto creamer and collagen, I’m going to end up binging on croissants or brownies. It’s how I’m wired after my 1980s upbringing.”

This isn’t the first time Davinia has spoken about biohacking. Earlier this year she told the Evening Standard that it wasn’t a case of taking big measures to improve one’s health.

She said: “There's so much doom and gloom… There's so much doom and gloom…There are so many little hacks you can do just to make yourself feel mentally better.”

Davinia highlighted the benefits of cold-water therapy, a method she said can be cheap to access: “The water’s freezing in this country two-thirds of the time. And on the few months a year when it’s not, just go to the supermarket, buy some ice bags and empty them into the bath.”

Biohacking aims to improve quality of life by lowering morbidity rate through methods like intermittent fasting, sleep, hydration, and physical training.

It’s called “biohacking” and comes from Silicon Valley.

A relatively new word that comes from the union of “biology” and “hacker” and indicates the attempt to positively influence the functioning of the organism, by hacking, ie trying to “force”, one’s genetic heritage. A strategy to live better and longer launched years ago by Californian top managers and which then spread throughout the world. How to upgrade the “operating system” of the human body? No manipulation, here we are talking about “reprogramming” and new lifestyles. “Our genetic heritage has enormous unexpressed potential that can be activated,” he explains Fabio Piccinidoctor and psychoanalyst, researcher of Food Sciences of theMarche Polytechnic University, author of the book “Biohacking Techniques: how to optimize metabolism to increase health and longevity”. “Biohacking aims to activate epigenetic modifications by awakening dormant genes to enhance the body’s resources.” While genetics studies the structure of DNA, epigenetics the way genes express themselves, i.e. how much they are turned on or off. “We’re talking about a set of strategies that aim to strengthen the body from a physical and mental point of view, first of all through nutrition, sleep quality, physical activity, cognitive stimulation”. One of the pillars of biohacking and the intermittent fasting, Piccini adds, which plans to concentrate the diet in a precise time span of the day (to be followed always under medical supervision). «But it is equally important to take care of sleep, we know very well that sleep debt accelerates aging and that 30-40 percent of people sleep too little. Just as it is essential to check thehydration. Physical training must also be intermittent, with recovery periods in place to allow the muscle layers to rebuild. And then, you have to keep learning something at any age, another pillar of biohacking: studying music or a new language, for example, to counteract cognitive degeneration”.

THE QUALITY OF LIFE

Sandra Milo is one of the supporters of this well-being and longevity strategy. «I’m lucky, at 90 I’m in full health and I still have a great desire to enjoy life. I don’t know if it’s a matter of genetics, nor do I think there is a “magic formula” of longevity, but I have certainly always been careful to lead a healthy life. There is nothing more beautiful than reaching old age with a smile and in full autonomy », says the actress who baptized the first Biohacking Suite in Rome. “Our mission is not so much to lengthen life but to improve its quality by lowering the rate of morbidity,” explains Dr. Claudio Urbani, specialist in regenerative medicine, neuroscience and stress therapy, head of the longevity center Umb. «Biohacking aims to modify dormant functional responses from non-use, from muscular or cardiovascular function to flexibility. It is about regaining possession of the body and the mind-body axis, starting with stress management». Diagnosing your own state of “aging” involves a series of tests. «The measurement of oxidative stress which measures the quantity of free radicals and indicates any inflammatory states, plethysmography to evaluate the functionality of the microcirculation of the legs, impedancemetry to study body composition, fat and lean mass, nutritional status and hydration level. And only after the check is a tailor-made program created for each person. Among the suggested therapies, there is also that of the cold which stimulates the metabolism and reduces inflammation ».

According to the studies, how does intermittent fasting help?

It reduces the risk of lifestyle-related diseases, such as metabolic disorders.

Popular biohacking methods include cold-water therapy, removing inflammatory foods, and using supplements like collagen, protein, and MCT oil, as well as sauna use.

Biohacking can be dangerous if not done properly, and excessive vitamin intake can cause health problems, including vitamin poisoning and organ damage.

Trend of the day: food supplements..
The path of youth and adolescents to disease and disability
• 1 / 2
• 2 / 2
Dubai - Gulf 365:
We pay a lot of young people to bodybuilders desire to reach a strong and harmonious body, and highlight the machined muscles (with a little shine) in an abnormal size, and there are those who rush without thinking about the practice of bodybuilding properly, and many of them eat proteins (cans up to a small barrel) of supplements and hormones and drugs to burn fat and other to divide muscles..
Most users of these supplements do not care about any harm that may be caused to them as a result of taking them, so he focuses only on the « muscle », neglecting the kidneys, liver, heart and organs of his body that may be affected by these supplements and drugs.
Many competent authorities have warned of the health problems caused by these supplements, but many bodybuilders see them as normal!
The Federation surveyed the views of young people about taking drugs, supplements, proteins and taking “injections ” in order to highlight muscles.
Some see this as the easiest and quickest way without considering the long-term consequences, while some have expressed regret that they turned to these things before marriage because of their impact on their children.
Others refuse to take these supplements because they know they are harmful and that the benefits do not go beyond getting temporary muscles.
Abdulmalik Abdullah said that his tendency to supplements is because of the urgency to get the muscles I want, and that these supplements are not harmful based on the recommendation of the trainer, who explained that most of these supplements are composed of cow ’ s milk and plants and herbs and do not harm their use, while I see that there are other types taken by young people are like magic medicine and increase their muscle mass very quickly.
He pointed out that there should be sufficient awareness among young people about the damage of some of the proteins that he eats and there are a lot of rumors about some of them, and those who eat them must be sure through scientific studies on these proteins and their effects.
Regret and sorry!!
Abdullah al-Nai expressed his deep regret because of his intake of proteins and drugs to increase muscles, especially as he harvested the results of this after his marriage, where he was born with a child suffering from birth defects.
She died after her second year, explaining that these abnormalities he knew of before taking these supplements and medicines, but he did not pay any attention to the matter, thinking that they were just rumors and false warnings.
I learned from this lesson and felt that I have a great responsibility to warn young people about these toxins that eat the body and affect its health and destroy it and also affect children as embryos.
He added: I wish to reach every young person who is thinking of taking these supplements or taking them to warn him of the risks, it did not stop at congenital malformations, but when I take these supplements I feel severe pain at the waist on the right and I do not care for the pain with knowing that this pain because of the impact of the kidneys these supplements, but the body with muscles is the blind me to any other risks
Walid Ali pointed out that there are temptations offered to bodybuilders who are targeted by drug promoters and supplements, so they offer these drugs and supplements as non-effective health materials, which will achieve the body he desires while maintaining his health, and vice versa they are those who destroy the health of those heading for sports.
He pointed out that there are many cases of heart attacks and the reason for these supplements, which directly threaten the heart.
He said: The quick result obtained by the availability of drugs and hormones is the main reason for their tendency to them, so he gets the body required within one month, while there is another did not get the body required for a long period of up to two years and for one reason is not to take these supplements and drugs.
Heart attacks.
Salem Al-Naqbi said that taking dietary supplements affected him after marriage and that most of his children have weak structure and short stature and others suffer from vision problems, all of which were warned of before, but he did not expect this to be the case already.
Al-Naqbi warned young people of these things, pointing out that there are a large number of teenagers at the age of 17 years heading for these needles and supplements for muscles and it is very dangerous and needs a serious stand.
Ask the experimenter.
Khaled Al-Danhani explained that the needles of hormones are present in large and even small halls of them and can be purchased, and often come from outside the country illegally, including what is available mainly for treatment such as growth hormone, where it is used in the case of short stature and other things.
He pointed out that hormones are available in demand, and most of those who promote these things are bodybuilding trainers themselves who are in the gyms, where you see that the coach takes care of any new person who comes to the gym, and offers him these things and tempts him that these supplements and needles will achieve him to get the body required.
He pointed out that the first and main reason for promoting these harmful needles and hormones is the high financial return.
Trainers Promoters
Khalid Al-Danhani said that most young people turn to these hormones and needles because they help to form the body of the player faster and give a result of change as soon as possible, and less than two months, and another reason is acceptance and enhance the attractiveness of men in front of people, especially in front of the opposite sex, and the main reasons is to enter bodybuilding competitions.
Kony, an international referee in one of the Olympic sports, said that I see that the use of these hormones is more frequent in bodybuilding championships, and their use and price increases also, and their price on championship days differs from normal days by up to ten times.
International federations reject the inclusion of bodybuilders in Olympic tournaments because they know that most bodybuilders use hormones and drugs and this affects the integrity, transparency and cleanliness of the game.
He added: When an acquaintance calls me to take advice about the harms of taking a particular needle, I warn him about the importance of starting with sound foundations and proper training, avoiding harmful hormones and focusing on training the body adequately, and building the body properly through proper nutrition and healthy supplements and exercises allowed for the person, because the harms of these substances do not appear from the beginning, may rejoice the person to the results, but have long-term harmful consequences. In general, what is consumed and built quickly, is destroyed as soon as you leave the exercise, and the muscles that build quickly are lost quickly, especially after the abuse of harmful substances, and exercise for a long time and healthy maintain these muscles for long periods.
Penalties and law
Ali Darwish asked how the promoters of these stimulants and hormones were arrested, and is there a law criminalizing this?
And if it turns out that someone has this trade, what is the penalty for that?
He said my brother had a friend who had strong muscles and anyone could know that they were not normal once he saw his face and body, and this person was a bodybuilder trainer and brought hormones for young people, and he had a lot of money because of this trade.
Knowing that most young people are aware of the availability of hormone needles and easily everywhere and turn to them to get the result quickly.
He pointed out that his friends told him that there are hormones other than those that build muscle, there are hormones for weight loss and other types that are considered a great risk to users, such as insulin needles with a healthy weight loss system.
Health Expert
Abdullah Ismail Al Hammadi says: I am in favor of the decision to have a health expert recognized in gyms for bodybuilding, as there are many who have been affected by the use of needles or supplements such as what they call or from exercise sometimes.
Because there may be a coach with little or no experience at all and give false medical doses that end the life of the person with physical disability or damage to some cells, leading to types and damage that do not have consequences.
He added: I see through my knowledge and accompanying my players these are some of the important caveats that a bodybuilder should take into account, in addition to that supplements and drugs to burn fat and divide muscles should be careful, as it is common for many bodybuilders to take multiple varieties of supplements and drugs to burn fat and other to divide muscles, and perhaps other chemicals to tan skin, as if the bodybuilder is directed in one direction is “muscle mass ” The harm and risks of these supplements and drugs and their impact on the liver, kidneys, prostate and heart, and the fact is unanimous that these drugs and supplements that many players take and consider very normal are dangerous and may cause many health problems.
He continued: Not to mention the wrong exercises: where the bodybuilder must play the exercises according to the rules and follow the instructions of experienced and competent trainers and completely away from randomness and selectivity in exercises, bodybuilding exercises have rules and the player must be experienced otherwise the results will be negative, in addition to be careful of the use of poorly manufactured devices, where there are many devices that facilitate fitness and bodybuilding exercises, which are safe and well manufactured and design.
Role of the family
Hamad Al Marzouqi believes that there is a small category of unqualified coaches in sports clubs in the country, pointing out that most of the clubs we have are known internationally, but the absence of the role of family and health awareness causes serious and different things, and who wants to practice this sport must practice it properly. And the absence of the role of parents and family can lead to disasters and calamities for their children.
Marzouki added: The bodybuilder should take some tips and put them in front of his eyes: It is necessary to eat healthy food and not any food, especially that the player « bodybuilder » does not remember or understand the idea of   eating healthy food, note that exercise can not achieve the desired results with unhealthy food and not useful, it is unreasonable that a bodybuilder aspires to a consistent body and muscle mass, with unhealthy food. Aha, soft drinks, energy drinks and others, healthy food does not mean what some bodybuilders do when they turn to « dinosaurs » almost devour the refrigerator, including, but talk here about a balanced food rich in proteins, vitamins and carbohydrates, and quantities sufficient as calories for the effort of the player in exercise.
Playing with a partner.
Marzouki said that playing with a partner has several benefits in bodybuilding exercises, it gives enthusiasm in the exercise, and most importantly, some bodybuilding exercises, it may be dangerous to exercise alone either because of excess weight or fear of muscle spasm or injury at a critical time of exercise, the partner intervenes in time to lift the weight or save the player quickly from a realized injury, taking into account that the player has to play properly originally.
It is also necessary to diversify in bodybuilding exercises because bodybuilding exercises, often designed to build muscle and increase muscle mass in addition to that the human athlete has to take care of the equilateral sports triangle (muscle mass holds the muscle fitness) and in this way the trainee can train and exercise properly, and to achieve this goal, the bodybuilder has to mix various exercises focused on fitness and endurance in addition to bodybuilding exercises that enhance muscle mass, walking, running and swimming -Exercises are very great for the bodybuilder and can complement the triangle ribs.
Single-muscle exercises
Hamad Marzouki said that one-muscle exercises is wrong: it is wrong to play a bodybuilder and make his course on only one game, because it is dangerous to the physical structure, a bodybuilder champion aspires to the beauty and consistency of his body, but some players focus on special muscles in the body, especially chest muscles and muscles « Bypass » and biceps muscle and focus on specific muscles, of course, It means physical inconsistency, and the appearance of the player seems inappropriate and unlikable and this common mistake, the player realizes the consequences after a little progress in the exercises and notice the difference in muscle coordination.
Lack of a culture of prevention threatens the future of sport
There is no doubt that gyms are places that attract many young people who love sports to develop their physical skills, but in the absence of a culture of sports prevention among most of the attendees, these clubs are the main reason for the exposure of people to various injuries, due to several reasons, including non-professional trainers and therefore unqualified, as well as dietary supplements without confirming their sources and fake courses for the coach in many gyms. and dangerous stimulant needles promoted by some trainers for financial gain.
He added: The sport of bodybuilding and fitness is important but it must be carried out under the supervision of a specialized trainer because most injuries come as a result of improvisation in vigorous exercises without supervision and follow-up from qualified and experienced trainers.
For example, there are some lounges that occupy their coaches outside the club as a personal trainer, while the gym comes one to three days a week to double the fee, at the expense of gym goers in the absence of continuous supervision, we need internationally recognized health experts to supervise all sports clubs.
Sultan Al Khaja added: “The lack of specialized trainers in the sport of bodybuilding threatens the future of athletes who love this sport, and I believe that strict standards should be set for those who want to obtain a gym license for bodybuilding, as there are many amateur trainers in this type of sport and we do not have a specialized regulatory body. Easy and easy for unqualified trainers, they focus their full attention on attracting young people to build muscle without thinking about what will happen to their physique if they exercise wrong or use drugs and hormones for muscles, which can lead to serious diseases, including infertility.
Awareness campaigns are important for sports of all kinds.
Abdullah Al Hashemi said: No one can oppose exercise, sports of all kinds are beneficial to the body and to the health of the mind as well. Therefore, we always call and encourage everyone to practice the sport that he likes and that suits him. Bodybuilding is a type of sport that requires great care and careful attention in terms of training and diet program, and most of all it requires a lot of patience. The other side is the easy access to supplements, proteins and other materials through sports stores, from my point of view, I believe that with the presence of the regulatory authorities must intensify awareness campaigns, these materials if used incorrectly or unnecessarily may cause health problems, God forbid, and we should be aware that there are many trainers in clubs who do not have the experience or the degree to provide guidance and advice, especially for young people. I see that in cooperation with the responsible authorities such as sports clubs and federations as well as the Ministry of Health, an awareness campaign seems to be an urgent requirement to regulate the practice of this sport and protect practitioners from falling into danger.
Most trainers are unqualified.
Ahmed Mubarak Al-Muhri stressed that the sport of "bodybuilding" needs limits and restrictions on both the owners of the halls and trainers, and on the sellers of dietary supplements, as well as the need for health supervision from the Ministry of Health, many trainers are not qualified, but I know one of them was the bed of the hall and now a trainer, salesman and health expert.
“Bodybuilding is one of the most beautiful sports and lacks specialization in this field and there are specialized institutes approved by the government for this type of sports and other sports in the UAE, ” said Ibrahim Khalil Ibrahim Al Marzouqi.
Regarding the use of drugs and sports drugs, he added: This is a purely medical field that should be carried out by doctors and pharmacists and must be treated with caution because of the long-term side effects of these drugs on the health of the athlete, and doctors and specialists must determine the extent of personal needs of these drugs and balance them with the rest of the body, in order to maintain the health of people and the general health of society.
Censorship and Consciousness Save Bodybuilders From Vanity
Muhannad Oqab Al-Gunoud stresses the need for supervision from competent authorities on these matters, especially that there is a category of new adolescents who practice this type of sport and do not have any background on exercises or dietary supplements, which can cause them harm and serious injuries in their bodies.
He said: The arrogance, which is considered by some of course and not considered by athletes is dangerous and has serious consequences for the bodybuilder, where often the arrogance affects the players of this sport, after they reach advanced stages in the formation of muscle mass, and their bodies become especially striking, but the truth is that arrogance is a deadly disease, and the athlete in particular to get rid of it, and the bodybuilder to be humble and close to all people.
He pointed out that the bodybuilder must have sufficient awareness and awareness and not just a machine dealing with « exercise machines », but prefer to have awareness of the work and anatomy of muscles if possible, and is not required to be a specialist doctor, but awareness prevents the bodybuilder from committing « follies » that may destroy his body and this is what we see many of some « seeking fame at any cost » in all countries of the world.

Some people rely on taking vitamins and supplements in the belief that this preserves the body, strengthens its immunity and protects them from diseases, but if the doctor does not write to these vitamins and overuse it is dangerous for health because it already causes exposure to some different side effects.
There are some side effects of excessive consumption of vitamins without referring to the doctor, the most prominent of these damages, poisoning, excess of vitamins and minerals, such as iron, calcium, vitamin D and vitamin A, is a risk of poisoning, which increases your exposure to some symptoms, including headache, dizziness, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea and discomfort in the abdomen, and can cause severe cases of organ damage.
In the case of excess of some vitamins, you increase the chances of exposure and imbalance of nutrients in the body, increase some of them, and decrease others.
Some people develop allergies as an allergic reaction to some of the ingredients in the vitamins, and the person shows a rash, itching or swelling and severe difficulty breathing.
And must rely on foods that meet the needs of the body from the lack of elements in it, and this is by going to a nutritionist who determines a healthy and important diet and rich all the elements needed by the individual.

Naive biohacking: why is it dangerous to take vitamins “just in case ” and is it true that hacking the body is the way to nowhere (and not to eternal life)
To live longer (for herself and her family), to avoid cancer and heart disease, biohacking enthusiast (now in the past!) and lifestyle podcaster Teresa Skrobanek conducted an experiment and plunged into the world of a thousand and one supplements for longevity.
Whose infectious example was she inspired by?
What was the danger of taking her medicine for diabetes and vitamin B capsules (it is recommended for everyone to calm down!)?
After what biohacking did Teresa really feel better?
Let ’ s share her story.
Master1305
Biohacking experiment
At the end of 2022, Teresa Skrobanek, a responsible mother and grandmother, decided to try to include “longevity ” supplements in her diet.
The general goal is to live as long as possible (for yourself and your family) and avoid breast cancer and heart disease, the risk of which is higher in women over fifty (and Teresa was 57 at the time).
Anti-age drugs were prescribed by a doctor, but, apparently, the specialist was free to relate to the ratio of anamnesis and goals of taking drugs.
In April 2023, Teresa discovered that the capsules in her medicine cabinet were metformin, which is usually prescribed to patients with type II diabetes.
Although the woman did not suffer from this disease, the doctor prescribed the drug due to the fact that the results of the studies were encouraging (but not guaranteed!) - it helps to fight aging
Teresa has also tried over-the-counter drugs, such as nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN) supplements, which supposedly, but not proven, speed up metabolism and reduce signs of growing up.
According to the experimentalist, she followed the example of the brightest biohacker – IT billionaire Brian Johnson, who takes about two dozen supplements a day, uses at least 7 skin creams and annually spends $2 million on unusual procedures to restore youth (for example, bowel photos, blood transfusions, weekly acid peels and laser therapy).
20 supplements a day and no rejuvenation
The more and longer Teresa took the drugs, the more she doubted.
Feeling worse, and Skrobanek plunged headlong into the study of dietary supplements - the results were contradictory.
For example, studies have shown that the widely advertised low-age supplements of nicotinamide riboside (a form of vitamin B3) increase the risk of brain cancer.
And the unpleasant consequences of the use of metformin (remember, Teresa took the medicine for diabetes, not being a diabetic!) were headaches, drowsiness and anxiety.
“I started to have a headache.
I felt very tired, although the pills were supposed to give me strength, ” Skrobanek told The New York Post, with whom she shared her entire story.
How do I know that taking these substances will not harm my kidneys or liver and will not cause cancer in 5-10 years? ”

Errors made by Teresa, which can not be made by biohackers novice
At TikTok, where the hashtag # BioHacking has garnered more than half a billion views, proponents of the biohacking movement boast of swallowing 70 to 150 different rejuvenating dietary supplements every day.
For example, to slow down the aging process, businessman Joe Cohen takes rapamycin, an FDA-approved drug that a 2014 study found could help increase life expectancy.
However, Cohen told The Post that he does not recommend a strict regime to his followers: mindlessly copying from and to the anti-age program of trendsetters is dangerous!
Instead, an experienced biohacker (Joe says he ’ s been studying this phenomenon for 20 years!) encourages newcomers to take blood tests first to determine the body ’ s biological needs and deficiencies, carefully examine the benefits and side effects of any supplements, and take only what seems right.
Cohen clarifies: “By understanding your physiology, you can take certain medications that will boost your energy, mood, and chances of avoiding age-related illnesses.
Preserving health is much more important than simply prolonging existence. ”
According to the businessman, his goal is to live as long and healthy a life as possible (and not necessarily up to 150 years)!
Roman Samborskyi
If not biohacking, then what (spoiler: food)
New York City Nutrition nutritionist Diana Rodriguez agrees with Cohen.
But to start your way to longevity offers still not with tablets, but with a healthy diet: “It is recommended to use food as the first method of preventing dangerous diseases.
Fruits, vegetables, low-fat proteins, nuts and legumes, in which "tons" of vitamins and minerals, can be very useful. "
Increasing nutrient intake through organic whole foods is something Teresa Scrobanek started doing in June 2023, when she gave up the supplement diet once and for all.
And she never felt better:
“If a long life meant that I got it with terrible side effects due to taking supplements, then I would prefer a shorter, but better life, which is based on proper nutrition and training, ” concluded Teresa.
The editors remind that drugs, vitamins, dietary supplements and food products have contraindications.
A specialist consultation is required.

Dietary supplements should be taken only after discussion with a doctor, and having passed all the necessary tests.
This was told by the head of the Council for the development of the health system of the coordinating Council of the non-state security sector Albina Makayeva.
She explained that dietary supplements contain various useful substances and trace elements necessary for the daily work of the body.
However, their number for each person is individual.
Therefore, thoughtless intake of supplements can harm health instead of supporting it.

Content: Biohacking is a controversial practice, but Lepht Anonym accepts its risks. More than once he has ended up in the ER, leaving doctors perplexed by inserting chips and even boxes with connectors into his body.

Centuries ago, when a doctor wanted to try a new vaccine or a new drug that he had created … he tested it on himself. Many died while developing new medicines.

Some biohackers they see themselves as those pioneering doctors of the Middle Ages: they test on their own body biotechnologies that aspire to improve the human being, cure diseases, and evolve the human condition, to achieve the desired happiness. And some have also died trying.

The biohacking, also known by the name of DIY biology or DIYbio, has as purpose improve our human condition making nanotechnology, genetic engineering, and technological implants available to everyone. You have more information on this card:

From its origins, Humanity pursues immortality and eternal youth. Biohacking seeks to improve our human condition with cybernetic implants. We explain who biohackers are, and why chips are installed inside the body.

Biohackers implant chips, sensors, machines and other mechanisms with the aim of overcoming physical and intellectual limits.

There is an ethical branch o legal of biohacking that only experiments with implants that do not pose a health hazard, for example chips under the skin.

But another trend is committed to not setting limits, even at the cost of putting your health at risk. Its objective is to defeat all diseases, aging and even death, with the help of technology. Then we will stop being human to become transhumans.

A first step towards posthumanism, where Humanity could dispense with its own body and live eternally as data in a neurological network.

Tips and guide to buy a next-generation sports watch that fits your needs and helps you improve your sports goals.

Within these biohackers, grinders they are the most extreme version. It is the case of Lepht Anonym, a British biohacker that, as he tells us Business Insider, more than 50 chips, antennas and other devices have been implanted in the body.

Read:  You can now install macOS Monterey with new features in Shortcuts, Safari, spatial audio in FaceTime and much more

As only professionals can use anesthesia, all Lepht Anonym implants have been inserted into your body by volunteers, to live. Your goal is “improve our quality of life through technology“.

Lepth explains on his blog that inserts its own chips because “there is no other easy way to do it. I will not wait for someone with a research laboratory to endorse this search.“.

The first chip that this biohacker was implanted under the skin, it allowed pay in stores simply by touching the card reader.

It was also implanted some magnets under the fingers, which detected external sensors to feel the distance between hands and objects. This could help blind people to move without hitting obstacles.

Hackers and the computer world are increasingly present in television fictions. Surely at the moment we can think of a series that deals with these topics, but if you can only think of one or two, we have selected a few about hackers that we find interesting.

His latest experiment, last year, has been his most troublesome. A box several centimeters long, with antennas, USB storage and connectors, was inserted under the arm. All went well until he hit his arm in a taxi, and began to swell. He had to go to the emergency room:

There the doctors told me that I was fatal, that they did not understand why I had put a box in my arm“.

In the end, he gave up: “They kept insisting that I take it off. I let them do it because they discovered that a hole had opened in one corner of the device and a large amount of a viscous substance was coming out“.

After that incident, Lepht Anonym has not updated his blog again.

The biohacking it is a practice that is just beginning. But without a doubt, it will go further. There are already medical biohackers, and the goal is to incorporate this branch of technology into medicine.

Put it in the hands of experts, because people’s health is at stake.

Complete genetic testing to identify health risk factors
With the advancement of technology, precision medicine has become an important trend in the treatment of cancer and other diseases. As for precision cancer prevention, the doctor pointed out, “Whole Genome Sequencing (WGS) can be used to accurately prevent cancer. By unraveling all genetic information, high-risk potential diseases can be identified and personalized prevention strategies can be developed. ”
The scientific community has discovered that common diseases such as cancer, high blood pressure, diabetes or dementia are inextricably linked to innate genes.
Two years ago, Chang Chia-ming, director of the Department of Genetic eugenics at Taipei Veterans General Hospital, opened a genetic counseling clinic. So far, more than 600 people have undergone full genetic testing. According to statistics, people who have undergone genetic testing can be divided into two types: normal people who are concerned about health; and high-risk groups who have been cured of cancer.
Zhang Jiaming shared that a 23-year-old Miss Lin is at high risk of breast cancer because her mother is a breast cancer patient, and genetic testing has shown that she has the BRCA2 gene.
He stressed that “genetic changes do not necessarily mean that she will get sick, but are indicators that increase the risk of certain diseases. Therefore, he helped Ms. Lin develop a personalized health management plan, and advised her to avoid drinking alcohol, eat less high-fat foods and exercise regularly. ”
Chang Chia-ming explains that due to the large amount of data generated by whole genetic testing, rigorous information processing technology and professional analysis and consultation skills are required, but most doctors have not received relevant training, resulting in uneven ability to interpret and consult genetic reports.

Vitamin D supports bone health and muscle strength in addition to supporting mood and gut health, and it ’ s no secret that the health benefits of vitamin D reach far beyond, one benefit that may not immediately come to mind when considering the many benefits of vitamin sunshine, blood sugar regulation, and it turns out that vitamin D has a significant effect on glucose levels in the body and oral supplementation can help promote healthy blood sugar levels.
Omega-3 fatty acids are a staple of a healthy diet and come with many scientifically backed benefits for your heart and brain health and longevity, but before you spend your money buying supplements.
Omega-3 is found in a number of nutritious foods, one of the many reasons doctors and health experts recommend eating certain types of fatty fish, including salmon and other oily fish, and other common superfoods including chia seeds and walnuts.
A combination of a high dose of vitamin D, omega-3 fatty acids, and a simple exercise program at home can significantly reduce cancer risk in adults and the elderly.
In the study of 2,157 people, researchers at the University Hospital in Zurich were able to prove the usefulness of some things to prevent cancer in the elderly, according to Deutsche Welle.
Cancer is the second largest cause of death for older people in Europe and the United States, and as you age, the risk of developing the disease increases.
Team leader Heike Bischoff Ferrari says studies confirm that vitamin D inhibits the growth of cancer cells and omega-3 can inhibit the transformation of normal cells into cancer cells.
According to the researchers, physical exercise improves immune function and reduces inflammation, which in turn helps prevent cancer, and the researchers conducted the study on citizens of five European countries over three years, namely Switzerland, France, Germany, Austria and Portugal.
The researchers found that each of the three methods played a role in reducing the risk of cancer, but the combination of all three created cumulative benefits of greater benefit, and the researchers confirmed that this led to a 61% reduction in the likelihood of cancer.

Many medical studies have confirmed not to overtake vitamins or supplements, in order to avoid their adverse results and numerous health risks.
As a result of the spread of the coronavirus, vitamins and minerals are the most commonly used dietary supplements, due to their important results in increasing energy levels, reducing weight, improving health and protecting against infection.
Despite this, studies have proven that taking vitamins and minerals has serious medical risks, as the risk arises through harm to the body due to the cumulative toxicity of many products taken at once, and experts have identified three main risks associated with taking vitamins:
Drug Interaction:
Various drug interactions interfere with vitamin supplements to backfire and cause serious consequences, including cognitive impairment and delirium, and experts have also warned against drug interference with some natural herbal supplements containing active substances.
Side effects:
Experts warn that the use of dietary supplements and vitamins may cause some side effects:
Vitamin A: Possible side effects include impaired liver function and vision loss.
Group B vitamins: Redness and burning of the skin, low blood pressure may occur.
Vitamin C: Causes an increased risk of kidney stones.
Vitamin D: Its overdose causes nausea, itchy skin, headaches, as well as the deposition of excess calcium in the liver, kidneys, lungs, heart and blood vessels, which increases the risk of heart attacks and coma.
Vitamin K: leads to the breakdown of red blood cells and the development of anemia.
Delay in effective treatment:
Taking some vitamins, supplements and vitamins causes interference with the diagnosis of some diseases and the start of the correct treatment, which poses a great risk and allows the exacerbation of the disease, so it is necessary to tell the doctor what we are taking other medicines and vitamins.
Experts point out that excessive consumption of fat-soluble vitamins leads to greater damage than water-soluble ones, due to the fact that the former accumulate in the tissues of the body, while the latter exits the body through sweating and urine.

Men eat 20 supplements a day, cause cancer, panic, absorb vitamin D 83 times as much
Share:
It is not advisable to eat too much or eat too much, otherwise a man in the United Kingdom who has taken too much vitamin D will fall ill and think he has cancer.
The report said that the middle-aged male patient ate 20 kinds of non-prescription nutritional supplements every day. After eating for a month, he began to show symptoms of continuous vomiting, diarrhea and stomach pain, and his body weight dropped by 12 kilograms after 3 months, worried about cancer.
Blood tests revealed that his vitamin D levels in his blood were seven times higher than normal, he suffered from acute kidney dysfunction, was hospitalized for more than a week, received drugs and intravenous injections, and excreted too much “nutrition ” from his body.
Excessive calcium loss in the body
The rare case, published in the medical case journal BMJ Case Reports, involved a person consuming 50,000 milligrams of vitamin D daily, 83 times the recommended amount.
After three months of constant vomiting, nausea, stomach pain and foot cramps, as well as tinnitus, dry mouth and thirst, his weight dropped suddenly, and his family doctor referred him to the hospital.
According to the doctor, it was the dietitian who advised him to start a "fortified vitamin" intake program. When he felt unwell, he stopped taking "vitamin cocktail", which included omega-3, vitamin B2, B9, C, K2 and several mineral and probiotic supplements, but the symptoms of the victim did not subside.
He was admitted to hospital for tests such as magnetic resonance to rule out cancer and bacterial infection, and then other tests revealed that he had too much calcium in his body and impaired kidney function.
In addition to intravenous "detoxification", the doctor prescribed the osteoporosis drug "bisphosphonate" to further reduce the excess calcium in his body.
Two months after he was discharged from the hospital, his calcium levels returned to normal, but his vitamin D levels remained abnormally high.
Toxic Vitamin D
The doctor stated that his vitamin D poisoning could last for several weeks. "This case further reflects the possibility of poisoning with supplements, most of which are safe but dangerous when taken in the wrong amount and in the wrong combination.
Vitamin D poisoning is usually caused by the intake of large doses of vitamin D supplements, not through the daily diet or the sun.
Vitamin D helps regulate calcium in the body to maintain bone, teeth and muscle health.
Vitamin D poisoning mainly causes calcium deposits in the blood, known as high blood calcium, which can lead to nausea and vomiting, weakness and frequent urination. It can also develop into bone pain and kidney problems, such as the formation of kidney stones.

Content: Supplements: A 'dangerous' mix could lead to 'uncontrollable bleeding', warns pharmacist

SUPPLEMENTATION offers a range of benefits, from supporting your immune system to reducing stress. However, pharmacist Scott McDougall (MPharm) cautions that taking some supplements together can be "harmful".

Long Covid: Dr Chris gives advice on supplements to fight fatigue

Speaking to Express.co.uk, pharmacist Scott McDougall – co-founder and registered manager of The Independent Pharmacy – said mixing two supplements could be "dangerous". "Ginkgo biloba and Omega-3 fish oil supplements are dangerous when taken together," warned McDougall. "Ginkgo biloba is a traditional Chinese supplement that can increase the levels of nitric oxide in your blood," he stated.

"The reason it can be dangerous to take ginkgo biloba and omega-3 fish oil together is that they both have the potential to thin your blood.

"This means that taking them together can reduce your blood’s ability to clot or lead to uncontrollable bleeding."

It is for this reason that McDougall does not recommend taking ginkgo biloba with omega-3 fish oil.

As for general supplementation, there is an "individual limit" to how much you can take.

While there is "an enormous amount of combinations of supplements that can be taken together", omega-3 fish oil and ginkgo biloba is not one of them.

"People also have different medical statuses," said McDougall. "So their bodies may have either deficiencies or surpluses of certain supplements.

"This means it can’t be said definitively how many different supplements a person should take daily.

"What can be said definitively is that you should always check the recommended daily amounts of supplements you’re taking (or planning to take).

"This will tell you how much of an individual supplement you can take daily."

People who are tempted to mix supplements are advised by McDougall to speak to their doctor or a registered pharmacist.

"They’ll be able to take your personal circumstances into account and advise the correct amounts of supplements for you to take."

McDougall emphasised that supplementation is not as simple as taking all the best supplements and getting the right reaction.

Even taking certain supplements together can lower their beneficial effects.

"Vitamins D, E and K are all beneficial supplements," said McDougall.

"Vitamin D helps keep your teeth, bones and muscles healthy. Vitamin E strengthens your immune system, as well as helping you maintain healthy eyes and skin. Vitamin F improves your cardiovascular functioning.

"But if you take all of these vitamin supplements together at the same time, it can reduce their effectiveness."

McDougall suggests taking such supplements "at least two hours apart" from one another so that they don't cancel each other out.

The NHS stated that people can get all the vitamins and minerals they need by eating a healthy, balanced diet.

However, during the autumn and winter, the NHS do recommend supplementing with daily vitamin D.

Probiotics can interact with vitamin D and omega-3 supplements, requiring careful management and consultation with a healthcare professional.
