#biohacking_secrets

We all have things in our families and unique to our cultures that help us feel better: eat the chicken soup, lentil soup, drink this type of green tea, eat turmeric, a spoon of honey, crushed garlic, put this on your chest. When you are young, you just eat the soup your mom says will make you feel better when you have a sore throat, the flu, or a cold and don't think much of it. Mom knows best, right?!

When you get a little older, you start to ask why? Usually, your parents say something like "this is what you do when you are sick, it is what my parents did for me when I was younger." There usually isn't a scientific reason behind it, or if there is a reason they don't know it. 

This will change with the introduction of nutrigenomics. 

So What is Nutrigenomics?

Nutrigenomics -from nutrition and genomics- is using nutrition, supplements, and herbs in specific combinations with each other to achieve your body's full potential. These combinations help your body upgrade your good genes and downgrade your bad genes.

 Nutrigenomics is the name of a new branch of science; but some of these practices have been around and used for hundreds of years, especially in eastern cultures. 

With new technologies and how computers process huge amounts of data, we have a better understanding of the effect of nutrients in our bodies. This is Nutrigenomics! And this area of study is growing fast! 

Why you should get excited!

I grew up in an Eastern culture where using food and herbs to prevent and cure disease is common. However, with the introduction of Western medicine and pharmaceutical drugs, those natural remedies have been forgotten. When I moved to the US and saw the rise in costs of prescriptions and the horrible side effects of some drugs, it brought to mind the natural remedies that I grew up around. 

I got excited about Nutrigenomics when I learned that it is applying pharmaceutical technology and the scientific method on natural blends of nutrients and herbs. We are blending the best of both worlds, and in this way, I am using natural ingredients that have been scientifically proven to help get the most out of my body without the side effects!

What can nutrigenomics help with?

I started using nutrigenomics to help me focus and be more productive. I wanted to biohack my brain and body to get the most out of every day, which is essential as an entrepreneur! My wife wanted to get some energy back transitioning back to work after our daughter was born. My mother wanted to decrease her knee pain. 

So what this means to you in your life/business is you can hack your biology safely to get the best version of yourself.

Nutrigenomics helped all 3 of us gain a better lease on life and take control of our bodies and minds! There are so many applications for nutrigenomics, stay tuned for the next article where we will dig deeper!

The thing I really want you to take away from this is: Nutrigenomics is the new science that has the potential to change our world forever.
