#what_is_biohacking

Being a DadPreneur ( Dad & Entrepreneur) takes so much physical and mental energy. Raising a baby is no less demanding, if not sometimes more demanding, than building a company. Like many other parents, my wife and I were lacking energy, sleep deprived, and on maintenance mode all day everyday. So we were on the hunt for any advice to take our energy level up a notch. We were looking for any trick to gain another hour in the day, or any help to get one less thing on our to-do list.

That when I was introduced to Biohacking. If you have not heard of it yet, then you are probably saying the same thing I said. “Bio What?” I know what is bio and I know what hacking is. But the idea of both put together is just weird. My biology is not a computer, and the computer does not have any biology. I had a very funny ‘huh’ moment. Nevertheless, I told you I was on the hunt for something new.

So it all started for me back in November of 2018 when I was introduced to the concept of Biohacking. For someone like me who is coming from a technology & business background, I have a very limited knowledge on health & science, but I have always been fascinated by how technology and science have been shaping our life.

I am more of a hands on guy, more of a doer than bookworm, so I decided to start biohacking my body along with a few other family members. It has been more than 6 months of Biohacking and the results have been interesting to say the least. It is amazing how we can hack our biology with simple foods, herbs, and habits to achieve more out of our body. Also, it has been  interesting to see how overrated some of the things that all think of as “healthy” really are.

I want to share my journey with the rest of the world, as I realized that there are many people like myself who have not heard of the term yet. But not anymore!

So what is Biohacking?

Biohacking is a practice by which we can alter our body in order to make it feel more alive, more useful and more productive. It can be defined as the process in which an individual makes changes to his or her lifestyle in an attempt to hack the biology of their body and therefore be able to make the best version of themselves.

The most shocking discovery for me in my biohacking journey so far is that how similar hacking our body and entrepreneurship really are...
