I have an aunt that is super deep into these "hacks". Yet at the same time, she puts zero effort into any sort of healthy diet or regular exercise. It boggles my mind, the need for some to have "secret knowledge".
It's just the new philosopher's stone. People will always prefer the easy solution over hard work
This is ignorant. Exercise and healthy diet are examples of bio hacking! It’s not secret knowledge, it’s deliberately taking actions to improve your health.
@@GamingOS in reality this is a thread full of people who want to discourage others from bettering themselves because it subconsciously makes you guys self conscious, sad.
Sometimes a way to feel better is straightforward. Move more, increase your daily activity by even going for a walk if you didn't before is good start. Look at your diet, how to include healthier stuff, maybe some unhealthy things can be replaced with a healthier alternative (instead of processed meat get a fresh cut of meat etc., include some healthy fat, veggies). Socializing is found to be really beneficial for us as well, try to join an activity or community of people if you lack that. Try to go to sleep earlier if you go to sleep late. Probably won't always succeed to do those things perfectly, maybe not everyday either, however making any positive change is good
To me, it just looks like she has a passion/big interest for it. It's human.
People are obsessed with biohacking because they don’t want to rip the Band-Aid off and accept that the real bio hacks they need are to go to the gym, get better sleep, eat properly, and go outside and talk to people
I thought that's what they were talking about when they said biohacking. The biohacking info I'm used to are all based on healthy eating and exercise. And I was so confused
And even with all of this you can still walk outside and get hit by a bus tomorrow. While yes, people need to do the work to hypothetically live longer, people shouldn't sacrifice enjoying their lives for potentially nothing. There should be a healthy balance, and an acceptance that your time on this earth isn't guaranteed
What's the difference between that and biohacking
Don’t forget avoid unnecessary stress, drink water, give and receive love
I don't think biohacking is being used correctly here. As far as I learned what it was, it was just about using the latest technologies to improve humans in any way. There's a dude who put a camera in his head so that he can see more colours. There's a guy who's trying to use CRISPr to cure his own diabetes. There's way more to this than just "trying to cheat death"
I could listen to her speak about literally anything, forever.
Her voice ☺️😍🥰
She has a great podcast about graphs and a second with a cohost called Rutherford and fry. You should check it out
Gotta love the brits
live in the moment and be grateful for being healthy rn. it can change at any moment but you'll deal with that when it happens.
Seriously! I developed a chronic illness at 19. My life has never been the same.
@@rieleynixonI'm unable to work due to multiple health problems and feel your pain. people who are healthy have no idea how it is. wish you the very best the world has to offer!
Do not live in the moment. I have ADHD an that's all I've ever been able to do. It ruins your life. Plan for the future.
barbara ehrenreich, famous author of nickle and dimed, released a book about this topic called natural causes that was both a look at biohacking-type things like this and how harmful they can be juxtaposed against an older woman coming to terms with her inevitable death. it feels like such an effort to live for tomorrow when you're not even living today.
I would love to see an interview between Brian Johnson and Dr Mike.
this!!!
😂😂
it's sad because I think as a culture, especially in America death is such a taboo subject. I'm 26 now and I'm starting to learn a lot now that other countries death is looked upon as a beautiful thing a part of life that our soul lives forever but it seems anything that involves money can become a business and people for ever have wanted to live long lives but in reality even at 26 I am starting to come to terms with death, and that it is a beautiful part of life. Heck, even in the south, which gets so much hate in America by the northeast, sometimes they celebrate and accept death more.
first off there is no proof of a soul. If there is no soul then nothing lives forever after your death. There is nothing.
Also death isn't a taboo topic at all. Where did you get that idea from? Even the latter half of your argument support that its not taboo.
Also its celebrated in the south more cause the south is more religious cause evangelicals have a strangle hold of the southern states. And you'd think that sounds nice. But no it isn't cause they use that religion as an excuse to be homophobic, xenophobic, racist, sexist, and bigots. And they believe they are doing their god's will because the crazy person on the podium said it as such and thus these people use their religion to excuse their hate and believe they will still go to heaven where a paradise awaits them after death.
Yeah i can see that being rather enticing.
Hannah Fry!!! I love her!!!
I thought he was going to start talking about CRISPR, cuz that’s what comes to mind when I hear biohacking
Aren't rfid chip implants, and pacemakers technically "biohacking"?
Indeed, they are
As are vaccines
I use some things such as lions mane and cordyceps, but i also hit the gym and ride dirtbikes everyday. I think it’s about your mentality. I use those 2 so I can have my energy extended more evenly throughout the day. Also helps with me day dreaming too much.
Aging is just entropy catching up.
Entropy falls apart in the presence of intelligence and computation
Doc mic is a straight savage!! Let's go!
I do a lot of these “bio-hacks” because I feel better everyday and are more productive and more relaxed
You can bionhack all you want and still get hit by a bus the next day.
True, but in the future you will have a chance to get hit by a car at the age of 300 while still being biologically young
@@seven6590 bwahahahaha! good point!
You should listen to doctor Mike cry about steroids if you have that view.
I think you’re missing the point
Yup. She has authority over him.
i love you. your perspective is so refreshing and beautiful
My aunt has done every thing in the book to stay young. She's 60. Her face looks 40 but she's still 60 years old.
"Eat food, not too much, mostly plants."
This Michael Pollan quote ftpm his book "In Defense Of Food" when broken down will take you a long way, combined with exercise.
Thank you
I want to live forever
its not like we have enough Movies, that show why this is a bad Idea. At some Point you have experienced everything you wanted to and then it becomes boring. Plus your loved ones that arent doing this will die before you, wich will take a Toll on your mental Health.
I can't stand people preying on others, but that is never a reason not to pursue something, just a reason to regulate it to protect people. I'd also say that aging doesn't have to be seen as a disease to be worth overcoming. We develop technology to overcome the limitations of our physical forms all the time, and this is no different if safeguards are in place to protect people from exploitation.
Hannah you need a curios cases RUclips channel
The big realized gains happen with the changing of fundamentals. Dr Mike is not only intelligent but also empathetic that takes the experience of being a human to a deeper level
Very interesting interview from Doctor Mike about biohacking
When did "biohacking" get turned into that instead of implanting rfid and magnets and stuff like that???
Dr Mike, you should read the book ‘lifespan- why we age’ by Dr David Sinclair.
thank you for this
I think the reason people seek this kind of "solutions" is that they need to feel more control, and hope thar they will have longer and better life. The actions that you say are "simple" are not always so simple or even possible for some of us. For example, I suffer from insomnia for years and no doctor or treatment I've tried helped and I've tried many. Some people have hard time losing weight, some people have medical conditions that can't be fully treated and makes them unable to workout or eat certain foods, some people have depression that no treatment or medication can really solve. So a lot of our life and health is determined by genetics and luck, and people want to think that there are external solutions that can enhance their life quality more than their actions, which are sometimes limited.
What is bio hacking?
somebody who uses science and technology, supplement, knowledge of nutrition to make them have more longevity, faster and efficiency
@@peakynguyen1299that sounds pretty good to me…what modern medicine should be
It's based on fear...
fear of death..
death is fundamental ... and inevitable
How about on the relationship between, nutrition and the circadian rhythm
There are animal species which are effectively immortal. And we already have scenarios on what could happen when there are societies of individuals who cannot die of age.
Ironically enough the species will die out way before the one which ages
And when he said the most fundamental things, i thought he'd say " chest compressions, chest compressions!"
Protein supplements if vegan helps, weight training, getting physiotherapy, eating as much variety of vegetables and small amounts of processed food helps a lot as well as reducing extreme long stressful situations.
What about bio hacking based on simple free changes we can make to improve our life now?! Intermittent fasting has changed my life, I went from struggling with eating disorders and yo-yo body weight, to being comfortable eating pretty much anything and maintaining a healthy weight. I have so much more energy solely from taking my vit b first thing in the morning. I sleep better, and I look younger since drinking the right amount of water. All of these changes were free and simple.
ik ppl get fed up with those that fall for these biohacking scams, but honestly i just feel sad for them. the fear of pain and death is all they focus on, and they're easily manipulated. i'm not immune either, though health isn't my big fear, but i also have things that could easily be used against me. if they had the self awareness to recognise that they're not helping their problems but instead self-soothing their emotions, they might get somewhere
Take the money saved from what youd spend on biohacking and go on some life changing experience that will improve your life now and onwards; a holiday or lesson you can remember forever that will enrich your life.
By biohacking, I was thinking of the people who do the science themselves to use their own treatments on themselves, sometimes to get around the ethical issues of running human testing.
But mainstream science is also working on life extension technology and making legitimate gains. It isn't some fringe thing.
I do it but it is to help aid my football performance like recovery ect
I agree with Dr. Mike
Although, aging is a mechanical process
Only take Omega 3 and vit d. The rest is fresh foods and high quality animal products.

Biohacking must my included in mental health issues
The only kind of Biohacking i want is to get physical superpowers
Well I was looking into bio hacking to see what it had to offer. I guess there goes that.
It's funny, my entire "live longer" plan is just to not die. Like at some point I'll just stop aging and as long as i don't get killed, I'll live forever. Got nothing against aging or dying, i just figure I've got as much of a chance of being some kind of medical miracle as being a regular person, and if I just believe I won't die, I'll see what happens. Plus, it's very low stress. Got all the time to do all the things I'll ever want to do, all the time to spend with the people I care about. Biohacking is a scam, but as long as I don't try to charge anyone money for my silly belief, I'm fine with as many people hearing about it as possible. As long as i don't end up looking like that lizard dude who gets blood transfusions from his kid, i think I'll be fine with whatever happens.
Actually its can be so good but in the future, not now
BRO HER VOICE IS SOOOO HOT HELPPPP
😂😂😂
You are gone😂😂
My man, I follow you for years, love you, have learnt most of the things I know about medicine from you, O agree with 99% percent of the things you are saying here; the only thing I disagree with is that please do not remove abstract thinking from the conversation, most of our medicine, physics and mathematics were invented in this way, a what if, that did years to be proven and even the people thinking of the premise never lived to see it actually becoming true, so yes even people that are involved with biohacking can dream of a thing that is not there.
Preach!
I agree about aging. Its very sad people are trying to avoid reality and don't see the beauty in it.
Aging very evidently causes many problems. Preventing aging can prevent cancer and dementia and osteoporosis and countless other things
I think it is you who is avoiding reality. You are lying to yourself when you say aging is beautiful. It isn’t. People get sick, they get cancer, their bones break, they end up in a wheelchair. You’re delusional.
I think it is you who is avoiding reality. You are lying to yourself when you say aging is beautiful. It isn’t. People get sick, they get cancer, their bones break, they end up in a wheelchair. Don't lie to yourself.
Regular exercise, including weight lifting and something that really gets your heart rate up in the 90% range, grip strength, balance, eating healthy, regular sleep times, and enough sleep. Those are your biohacks. You're welcome.
The hack to long life is happy life.
What about inducing artificial savant syndrome, or smart tattoos, brain machine interface?
I like to indulge, in the sort of biohacking, that increases a humans, general capability, not the type that stops aging; i’ve been working on a Safeway, of inducing savant syndrome in an individual, automatic, crisper, sequencing systems, i’ve been working on my biohacking concepts for a pretty long time now, it’s fun, all of my bio-hacking, is currently conceptual, but I hope to make a reality someday; humans actually Cantlay, I’m not the peak of evolution, but next step in revolution, is possibly biotech integration, yes, I want to become a cyborg.
If bio hacking worked would you be behind it tho? I know it would never be this simple but let’s say was a pill that’s proven to extend 30 years to your life, would you be for it? (before anyone starts asking for specifics, let’s say it slows down aging, so with a longer life you’d experience a longer (but equally proportional) amount of time in a 30 year olds mind/body, as well as longer in a 70 year olds mind/body.
and it would take fully 100 years to know all the adverse effects! I would skip it for that reason alone.
@@delfyinc I totally get that point, but can I ask, what side effect are you worried about? Because the "side effect" of NOT taking it is death. So I assume you believe life is best short but enjoyable rather than long with suffering?
@@kiliankrausyou wouldn’t know what side effects their are unless you do I.E. it’s something that has been tested and we know it’s interactions and side effect profile. But I agree if it extends your life that much it’s probably going to be beneficial and not have and bad side effects. Also I doubt you’d get a simple answer to your question but here’s mine. If I could extend the best parts of my life and die at a reasonably older age with less issues I’d be happy. That’s what biohacking is for me at least. But it’s a really good question!
The whole point of bio hacking (imo) is not to "live longer". But to have an increased quality of life in that period. Because the reality is, yes you could die the same age even without the use of these methods. But would you have enjoyed the time you spent?
Oh, I thought some of the new cancer treatments were considered bio-hacking too. Like, they take sample cells and recreate the cancer to find a targeted treatment for the specific person's cancer. Is it not bio-hacking?
That’s called “precision oncology”, or the highly specific drugs to a certain mutant protein is, at least. I’m a biochemist who works in oncology research.
Dr. Mike should have Dr. David Sinclair on, if he hasn't already.
This is not totally what bio hacking is, only a small part of it.
Id be more ibto biphacking if it were meant as a means of altering the human form to an individuals ideal.
Like being able to have the vision of cats, or various limbs somehow.
Stuff that people could actually use and enjoy in day to day life. Not extending human life because "why not"
All things must die. It also evetually causes problems with general resources given how the current economic scope of the globe works.
Aging might not be a disease but it is definitely preventable. However technology isn’t close to a point that it’s worth exploring for most people if you aren’t actually in the field doing research on it.
Aging is not preventable. You are actually 5 months older than you were when you left this comment.
Aging is not synonymous with getting older in this context. It’s a biological process that is most definitely preventable.
Bio-hacking isn't just bullshit supplements and snake oil and not all bio-hacking has the objective of making you live longer.
There are some people that bio-hack in all sorts of ways just to improve life quality, whether it works or not and whether it's even safe or not is the question.
“Seek medical care, For indeed God haven’t created a disease without a cure except aging”
- Prophet Mohammed PBUH
There is no magic bullet. Don't smoke. Exercise. Be fulfilled. Eat real food, not too much, mostly plants.
More false promise than big pharma? 😂… cmon bro.
Is eating better and exercising big pharma? He's said several times that drugs isn't always the answer and the patient also has to consider side effects.
Saya dapat mendengarkan dia berbicara tentang apa saja selamanya
Life is so short, lead a healthy balanced life and hope for the best 🤷🏻♀️ why spend so much of your time in a state of fear (aging/possible illness) and just live life…they want extra time but spend so waste so much of it trying to extend it 😄
Quality vs quantity
Go exercise, eat well, sleep well, and manage your stress. Nuff said
How is aging a disease? 😂Its simply apart of life
Ageing is a gift
Is bruv trying to say we aren’t close to being about to unlock the human genome and alter it? If so I know where I can stop coming for info 🤦♂️
Real beautiful woman
That's not bio hacking...
Snake oil for sail get ya snake oil, straight from the anaconda ayo get it while it’s hot
It depends on the person... If you aren't addressing fundamentals, supplements aren't the answer.. but Doc.. you can't hate on those trying to take their health into their own hands and stepping away from the big pharma centralised control system you are a part of??
Who wants to live long enough to watch the world be destroyed....I don't 😢
I want to listen to here read a book
ofc a WEF doctor hating biohacking
But the quality of life is better when you eat right and exercise 😂😂
Hi man
“Aging isn’t a disease” Maybe not, but the things you die from at old age are
True😂😅 haha 🎉🎉🎉🎉 tryely said 🤣 😂 😆
Mike you don't understand what biohacking is. That is only a small part of it.
That voice
His argument is weak but then again it’s just an opinion. Science is about the future. It’s not about the past. Of course we’re supposed to use it to improve upon our future. That does include improving individuals lifespan and also their quality of life. Stop finding problems with nothing.
Our bodies are built to die. Enjoy existence while it lasts. ❤
Really!? Talk by you.
@@mattsworld2926 no make sense. Try more hard.
@@autumnrain1892 Will make sense, if the rich big tech corporation of pharmaceutical branch end and all scientist used their knowledge to make humans life more than 200 years.
Wait... Isn't that exactly what modern medicine does? Don't y'all pray in the sick...
Let’s be real, the actual reason doctor mike doesn’t like bio hacking is because if we learn to take care of our own health he’s gonna be out of a job.
If you think eating better and exercise isn't taking care of your own health then there's really nothing else to say.
So why does he recommend diet and exercise?
Money speaks louder than progress. Remember of that son. This scientist are actually money suckin' leeches, who doesn't care 'bout the future of science and mankind.
@@JeffDMHe's talking about live longer more than 100 years.
Its a scam, plain and simple
As every business is, so what?
@apollonyq you apparently care enough to comment really nothing a month later
@@439801RS thanks for try
Just full of it ain't ya
Wtf happened. Biohacking, original biohacking was like 'how do I implant a compass into my hand so my finger glows whenever I point north'. What is being discussed in this video is not what I would consider biohacking. Maybe times have changed and I'm behind.
You’re demonizing medical advancements for attention.
Marginal....😂😂😂😂
No matter what you believe, aging isn't a disease but a process , we are designed to return to this world.
It’s not a design, it’s evolutional mechanism that hasn’t changed yet while our brain and knowledge are significantly have. If you’d like to think about yourself as a bunch of a dirt it’s your problem.
He says these biohackers are scamming people as he wears his 100k watch lmao
My personal belief is that CRISPR - Ethics could create people who biologically age 20 years slower than their chronological age.
Don’t let his low, IQ people, stifle development and progress by demonizing pioneers
“Bro big pharma doesn’t want you live longer because …. they dont want to make money” - biohackers
😂😂.
