Biohack-it

Smitha Rao is a classically trained biotechnologist who got her first patent in her twenties, created over 200 products, and never meant to work in beauty at all. She now runs Parëva Beauty, a four-product skincare line she launched in 2025 and bootstrapped with no outside funding, built around a plant stem cell technology she calls molecule three. On this episode of Biohack-it, Iman Hasan asks her the question most founders will not answer on camera: what are the biggest scams in the beauty industry right now? Smitha names two. Ingredient dusting, where a brand puts in a sprinkle of something just to earn a label claim, and the single miracle ingredient promise, which she says cannot work because aging is a systems problem. She also explains exactly how to read the fine print under a before-and-after photo, including how many people were in the study, how long it ran, and whether a dermatologist supervised it. From there they get into the science. The three things that actually age skin, why NAD declines…

Luke Olley, founder of Resonance Energy Wear, joins the show to tell the story behind one of the most unusual founder journeys in wellness. A former professional footballer whose career ended in a mysterious pelvis injury, Luke spent eight years as a professional gambler before a series of life changes, including his father's Parkinson's diagnosis and the birth of his daughter, sent him searching for purpose. He shares the moment at a children's wellness class that led to the idea for Resonance, the story of nearly losing everything to rebuild the company from his mother's house, and what a small early study suggests about nervous system regulation. Luke is candid about the skepticism his product faces and why he isn't afraid of competitors. Entrepreneurship, resilience, and biohacking on the show. New episodes every week. The claims discussed are the guest's own; this is not medical advice, and anyone considering changes to a prescribed treatment should consult their doctor first. Get 22% OFF Resonance…

Gary Brecka joins Iman Hasan on Biohack-it for a deep conversation about how to actually take your health into your own hands. Gary shares the origin story most people haven't heard, how a career predicting mortality for the life insurance industry and a personal bankruptcy led him to walk away and build a wellness movement from a vitamin shop in a Naples strip mall. He explains why you can't out-supplement trauma, the root-cause thinking that ties together fatigue, mood, and chronic symptoms, and the 72 biomarkers he says everyone should ask their doctor to run and how to read them. Gary breaks down the free, zero-cost sleep reset he swears by, the hormetic stress of cold exposure, why the basics beat the gadgets every time, and where peptides fit for the right person. Whether you are just starting your wellness journey or deep into biohacking, this one is packed with practical takeaways.

Salim Najjar went from nuclear engineer to founder of a top US beverage brand to one of the leading voices in HRV (heart rate variability) and nervous system sovereignty. In this episode, Salim breaks down what HRV actually measures, why comparing your score to anyone else is keeping you stuck, and why chronic stress (not genetics) is the leading driver of cellular inflammation, aging, and disease. We get into his five-pathway framework for nervous system growth (sleep, hormetic stress, reframing, intentionality, and community), the shoulder injury that became a turning point in his life, why so many successful entrepreneurs come from dysregulated childhoods, and how to actually train your nervous system like an emotional athlete. Salim also walks through a live HRV reading using an Oura ring so you can see exactly how to interpret your own data.

Scott Clary, founder of the Success Story Podcast and a serial entrepreneur, joins Biohack-it for a no-filter conversation on business, AI, fitness myths, and what success actually costs. Scott breaks down why the fundamentals of longevity (VO2 max, compound lifts) matter more than any biohacking trend, why he thinks CrossFit is one of the riskiest programs in fitness, and why he believes up to 90% of jobs could be redundant within three years as AI adoption accelerates. He also unpacks his "10 year rule" for building any business or physique, how he stayed calm while his Dubai real estate portfolio dropped 20% overnight, the lesson behind viral moments like the Hawk Tuah Girl, and why he thinks most people never do the inner work required to know what they actually want out of life.

For 12 years, Zane Griggs was the poster child for intermittent fasting. He wrote about it, preached it on every podcast, and built his brand on it. Then his body broke down. In this episode, Zane comes clean about the metabolic stress that wrecked his sleep, thyroid, and blood sugar, and explains why he now believes carbs, not fasting, may be the missing piece for so many people over 40. We dig into why mitochondria (not cholesterol, not red meat) are the real pacemaker of aging, the truth behind the cholesterol and statin debate, why seed oils can sit in your body for up to 680 days, and why NAD IV drips might be a waste of your money. Zane also breaks down why the "train like a bodybuilder" advice most men follow actually started with steroids in the 1950s, and shares the one habit he'd tell his 30 year old self to drop immediately. If you care about metabolic health, biohacking, longevity, hormone optimization, or just want to know what actually moves the needle after 40, this conversation will change…

In this episode of Biohack-It, Kayla breaks down how women should shift their protocols from their 30s through perimenopause, why bone density peaks at 30 and what to do about it, and the real reason most women are silently losing muscle mass without realizing it.We get into the truth about GLP-1s, why Kayla tried tirzepatide and stopped, and the non-negotiable rules she says every woman needs to follow before going on one. She shares her personal peptide stack, including BPC-157, tesamorelin, epamorelin, DASP for deep sleep, thymosin alpha-1 for immunity, and MOTS-c for insulin resistance, and why she will never promote gray market peptides no matter how much money is on the table.🔔 Hit that subscribe button for exclusive access to thought-provoking podcasts, self-growth tips, inspiring guidance, empowerment for bold spirits, and…

In this episode, Dr. Motley performs a live face and body reading, uncovering how gallbladder fatigue, lung congestion, and trapped grief show up physically in the body. He breaks down the Chinese body clock, explains why waking up at 2 to 3 AM signals liver congestion, and shares how unresolved trauma from childhood locks infections into specific organ systems.

What if your chronic pain, your tight shoulders, your low energy, and your brain fog are not physical problems? What if they are emotional ones stored inside your body?In this episode of Biohack-it, we sit down with Dr. Tamara Ghazi, specialist in chiropractic, myofascial release, and pelvic floor health, to break down what your body is really trying to tell you. Tamara explains how unprocessed emotions, chronic stress, and a non-stop hustle mindset get physically locked into your fascia, your hips, your nervous system, and even your pelvic floor. We also get into the GLP-1 and Ozempic explosion, why Tamara is anti-pill even for supplements unless the basics are covered, and the one morning habit she swears by for nervous system regulation.This is a conversation that will change how you see pain, healing, and what it actually means to take care of your body.🔔 Hit that subscribe button for exclusive access to thought-provoking podcasts, self-growth tips, inspiring guidance, empowerment for bold spirits, and…

Dr. Robert Whitfield, the surgeon known as "the explant guy," joins Biohack-it for a conversation the plastic surgery industry does not want you to hear. Dr. Whitfield has been blocked and censored on multiple platforms for speaking openly about breast implant illness, biofilm infections, and the systemic inflammation that silicone devices can trigger throughout the entire body.In this episode, he breaks down the three routes of implant contamination, why standard labs miss nearly 30% of implant infections, how bacteria form biofilms on foreign bodies that your immune system simply cannot clear, and why a woman with 40-year-old implants is almost certainly carrying ruptured silicone.Dr. Whitfield also explains the Sharp Method, his holistic pre- and post-surgical protocol that combines genetics testing, toxicity burden analysis, gut health, and targeted supplementation. He covers the difference between bioidentical fat transfers and traditional implants, why the sauna can trigger heavy metal leaching in…

Clinical nutritionist and holistic coach Suzan Terzian joins Biohack-it to break down what's really making women sick, exhausted, and hormonally imbalanced in midlife. If you've been told your labs are "normal" but you still feel terrible, this episode is for you.Suzan unpacks the real root causes of hormonal chaos, from cortisol dysregulation and blood sugar crashes to generational trauma stored in the body. She explains why the conventional medical system is designed to treat symptoms rather than prevent disease, why bioidentical hormones are not the same as synthetic ones, and why women over 35 are the most under-supported demographic in modern healthcare.You'll learn exactly why your body crashes at 3 p.m., what morning protein does to your cortisol curve, and why 12 hours of fasting is all most women actually need. Suzan also dives deep into epigenetics, the "goldfish analogy" that reframes your health environment, and why your genetics are like apps on your phone waiting to be double-clicked.If you…

You think you are healthy. Dr. Poonam Desai is here to prove you wrong. Dr. Desai is a former emergency medicine physician turned longevity doctor who spent years watching people end up in the ER from conditions that were completely preventable. Now she is on a mission to help you get ahead of disease before it starts. In this episode of Biohack-it, we go deep on the decade-by-decade blueprint for proactive health, why South Asian genetics create a unique risk profile most doctors overlook, and the single blood test that changed Dr. Desai's life after decades of unexplained fatigue. We cover: Why BMI is a useless metric and what to track instead The visceral fat and insulin resistance risk that hits South Asians harder Why low ferritin (iron) is silently destroying your energy, focus, and mood The Vitamin D mistake that can clog your arteries if you take it wrong Fertility timelines your OB probably never told you about Why sleep beats every supplement, biohack, and peptide on the market The fiber gap: why…

Everyone is talking about GLP-1s. But most people don't actually understand what GLP-1 is, where it came from, or why the injectable versions come with side effects like hair loss, muscle wasting, sunken face and mood flattening.I sat down with Becca McCarthy, co-founder of Evolv, a biotech company that has spent three years developing a patented oral GLP-1 peptide that mimics the same pathway as semaglutide and retatrutide without the injection, without the prescription and without those harsh side effects.We get into what GLP-1 actually is and why it is a hormone your body already makes, what food noise is and why silencing it changes your relationship with food entirely, why 97% of Americans are metabolically unhealthy and what that means for disease risk, how GLP-1 support helped Becca get through perimenopause when nothing else worked, why their 90-day clinical study is showing 12 pounds lost and 4 inches off the waist at the 8-week mark, how oral bioavailability works and why solving it is the biggest…

I have been obsessed with layered laser treatments ever since I saw what clinics in Korea were doing and started wondering why nobody in the West was offering the same thing. Then I found Rebecca Treston. She has been layering multiple lasers at once for over 20 years and she is doing it better than anyone I have come across.In this episode I sit down with her right after my own treatment and we break down exactly what she did to my skin and why. We get into how the layering method works and why a single laser can never fully address what is happening in your skin, the Stanford BBL study that showed a laser can actually reverse gene expression in aging skin, why she avoids fillers and what happened when a dissolving treatment collapsed one side of her own face, why she stopped doing HIFU and what the long term consequences are of overdoing it, how hormones like testosterone and estrogen show up directly on your skin, what she thinks about the Korea laser trend and why it has no real strategy behind it, the…

have been wanting to sit down with Dr. Darshan Shah for three years. We finally made it happen at South by Southwest in Austin and it did not disappoint.Dr. Shah is the founder of Next Health, one of the most advanced longevity and functional medicine clinics in the world with over 30 locations. He is also a surgeon who performed over 20,000 procedures and then had a personal health crisis in his early 40s that changed everything. He was 50 pounds overweight, had high blood pressure, cardiovascular disease, diabetes and an autoimmune condition, and was on 10 different medications at the same time.He fixed all of it in 8 months through functional medicine. And he has never gone back.In this episode we talk about the hidden causes of inflammation that show up even in people who think they have a clean lifestyle. Why your toothpaste and Listerine are sabotaging your health. The biomarkers every person should be testing and what optimal actually looks like versus disease state. Why 80 to 90 percent of the…

Sleep is the one thing I know I need to be better about. And when I found Dr. Chris Winter, I knew he was the person I wanted sitting across from me for this conversation. Dr. Winter is a neurologist and one of the leading sleep experts in the country. He has spent his career working with everyone from elite athletes to everyday people who just cannot get their sleep right. And in this episode, he told me a lot of things I did not expect to hear. We talk about why your Oura ring score is probably making your sleep worse, not better. Why sleeping longer is not the same as sleeping better. What your brain is actually doing while you sleep and what happens when it stops doing it. The link between poor sleep and dementia, and why the research says you can change that outcome even if you carry the gene. How alcohol destroys your sleep even if it helps you fall asleep fast. What a proper melatonin dose actually looks like and why most people are doing it wrong. Why waking up at night is completely normal and not…

I have been wanting to have this conversation on Biohack-it for a long time. And I can personally vouch for everything Maria says in this episode. Maria Marlowe is a world renowned nutritionist who specializes in clearing skin from the inside out. She had severe acne for almost five years, tried every prescription, and was about to take Accutane when she saw the side effects on the label. Instead she changed her diet. Her skin cleared in three months. She went back to school, became a nutritionist, and has spent her career teaching people what their dermatologist never told them. In this episode we break down why everything the skincare industry tells you is backwards. Your skin is not a surface problem. It is a gut problem. We talk about the gut-skin connection, why all acne starts in the gut whether it is hormonal or not, the healthy foods that are secretly driving breakouts (whey protein and biotin are two you need to know about), Chinese face mapping and what where you break out reveals about your…

I have waited two and a half years to bring you this conversation. Today, I am joined by the world-renowned OBGYN and women’s health expert, Dr. Jessica Shepherd from HERS. We live in a culture that promises "salvation" through a single shot, a specific pill, or one hormone replacement. But as Dr. Shepherd reveals, the truth about total body optimization is far more complex. This episode is an urgent call for women to reclaim sovereignty over their own bodies and nervous systems. In this masterclass, we discuss: The HRT Lie: Why an entire generation of women was taught to fear hormones and the devastating impact of that misinformation. The GLP-1 Reality: Why your health transformation requires more than just a shot to reach the "best version of you". Total Body Levers: The specific, alternative points of view on medicine that allow you to optimize your health from a cellular level. Personal Expansion: How to bridge the gap between "getting by" and achieving true longevity. If you feel like you’ve been…

I've been using Branch Basics for five years. It changed my health before I even fully understood why. In this episode I sit down with Allison Love, co-founder of Branch Basics, to break down something most people never think about: the toxic load hiding in your cleaning products, laundry detergent, personal care items and yes, the air inside your own home. We talk about how Allison's co-founder reversed her PCOS not through medication but by changing what she was washing her clothes with. We talk about Marylee, their mentor, whose son went from a healthy, coordinated child to barely being able to lift his head off a pillow after pesticide exposure, and how stripping their home one product at a time brought him back. We also get into why the word "natural" on a label means nothing, how fragrance hides hundreds of toxic chemicals in a single word, why your sanitizers and disinfectants may actually be making you more vulnerable to getting sick, and what the word "fragrance" is legally allowed to conceal. I…

What does it actually take to walk away from a successful career and build something that genuinely fulfills you? Erika De Pellegrin did exactly that. Corporate lawyer in Australia. New continent. New career. New baby. All of it — on her own terms.

I have been obsessed with frequency medicine since last year, but after sitting down with Henry and Laura from Soaak Technologies, I realized we are only scratching the surface of what’s possible. This isn't "woo-woo"—this is clinical-grade technology currently being used by the U.S. Air Force to optimize pilot performance and mission readiness.

I’ve always been fascinated by the strength of Saudi women, but my conversation with Nada Baeshen went deeper than I ever expected. In this episode of Biohack It, we’re pulling back the curtain on what marriage, divorce, and financial independence really look like in the Middle East—and I’m sharing a massive personal update about my own life.Nada, one of the biggest TV presenters in the Kingdom, opens up about why she preaches financial freedom as the only way for women to truly "take their power back." We discuss the cultural pressure to get married, the fear of "being old" at 32, and the heartbreaking reason she shifted her entire life toward wellness after her father’s dementia diagnosis.Plus, I’m being completely transparent with you guys for the first time: I am going through a conscious uncoupling at 42.

If you’ve ever felt stuck in a relationship or a career that no longer aligns with your frequency,…

I finally sat down with the incredible Dr. Natalia Spierings, and she is exactly the kind of pattern-interrupt this industry needs. Natalia isn’t just a UK-trained consultant dermatologist and surgeon—she is also a professional IFBB bodybuilder. Today, we are cutting through the multi-billion dollar marketing hype to get to the "no bullshit" truth about your skin and your body. In this episode, Natalia exposes why most skincare products are essentially useless and why she believes Vaseline is closer to magic than any luxury serum. We dive deep into the science of Tretinoin, the dangers of long-term fillers (and the "alien" looks they can create), and why fat transfer might be a better surgical alternative for under-eye rejuvenation. We also discuss the bodybuilding mindset: why most women fail to change their body composition despite lifting weights, and the power of DEXA scanning to keep you accountable. If you’re tired of "hope in a bottle" and want a straightforward, evidence-based approach to longevity…

I have followed Dr. Natalie Crawford for years, and having her on the show is a true full-circle moment for me. As a board-certified reproductive endocrinologist, Natalie is a beacon of knowledge for anyone navigating a fertility journey. In this episode, she gets incredibly raw about her own struggle with infertility and how being gaslit by the medical system led her to discover the "big dirty secret" of reproductive health: inflammation. We dive deep into the science of ovarian aging and why your "biological clock" is about more than just your age. Natalie explains how mitochondrial health and insulin resistance are the real drivers of egg quality and how you can proactively lower your inflammatory burden through sleep, nutrition, and nervous system regulation. Whether you are considering IVF, egg freezing, or just want to understand your hormones better, this masterclass in preventive care is for you. In this episode, we discuss: The connection between chronic stress, cortisol, and fertility loss. Why…

I have been trying to get Dr. Amy Shah on Biohack-it for 18 months, and we finally made it happen while filming in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. As two South Asian women, we dive straight into a conversation that hits close to home: why our race is built so petite yet remains at a significantly higher risk for type 2 diabetes, Alzheimer’s, and heart disease than other populations.In this episode, Dr. Amy Shah breaks down the fascinating science of "thrifty genes"—the biological survival mechanism from ancestral famines that makes our bodies hold onto sugar differently. We discuss the "skinny-fat" phenomenon and how modern lifestyle choices, like processed seed oils and a lack of protein, are creating a metabolic crisis. Dr. Shah shares her proprietary 30-3-3 rule for gut health and her signature "cortisol reset" to help you regulate your nervous system and reclaim your energy.Sponsors: Vibrant Wellness: Get the Hormone Zumra test to understand your body’s unique needs.

I’m getting really uncomfortable today. My team told me it was time for "More of Me," so I’m sitting down to answer the questions you sent in on Instagram—nothing is off the table. From my divorce and the move to Dubai to the heartbreaking reason I pivoted my entire career into health and wellness after losing my mother to terminal cancer, this is the most personal I’ve ever been. We’re diving deep into the biohacking protocols I use to stay high-performing while running two companies. I’m sharing my exact 2026 peptide stack (including BPC-157 and GHK-Cu), the truth about cellular health, and the one supplement I will never live without. We also discuss my life-changing Ayahuasca journey in Mexico and how it helped me find peace with my father's passing. If you’ve ever felt like a victim of your circumstances, I want to show you how to become the hero of your own story through curiosity, accountability, and the right nervous system regulation. In this episode, we cover: My move to the Middle East and the…

In this episode, I sit down with a man who was instrumental in my own healing journey: the "medical shaman" himself, Dr. Ivan Rusilko. We’re diving deep into the hot topic taking over the US right now—peptides. But we aren't just talking about the surface-level trends; we're breaking down the critical difference between medical-grade and "research" peptides, and why where you source your "key" to cellular health matters more than you think. I share the vulnerable story of my own nervous system breakdown and why I chose to ignore the recommendation for SSRIs, opting instead for a four-week protocol with Ivan that didn't just bring me back to life—it made me feel better than my original self. We also discuss his incredible work reversing "incurable" conditions, including a 96% drop in cancer markers for a Stage 4 patient and restoring the quality of life for an 85-year-old battling Parkinson’s. From the neuroplasticity of ketamine and the "miracle grow" properties of Cerebrolysin to the spiritual "Law of…

I have always believed that "curiosity heals," and today I am sitting down with one of the most talked-about women on the internet: Sadia Khan, PhD, MBA. You’ve likely seen her viral clips on TikTok or Instagram, and while she is no stranger to controversy, I wanted to peel back the layers and hear her side of the story—from her "big dirty secret" involving a years-long setup to the truth about her background as a psychology teacher. We dive deep into the differences between Eastern and Western family values, why "similarity feels like settling" in modern dating, and the biological wiring that makes women crave dominance and protection. Sadia doesn't hold back on the "soy boy" crisis, the toxicity of weaponizing intimacy, and why she believes a man's most important trait isn't his height or his money—it’s his intelligence and his ability to see through manipulation. Whether you agree with her or not, this conversation is a masterclass in understanding the hidden dynamics of the modern home. Connect with…

I have always been drawn to wellness products that are simple and effective, but what my guest shared today blew my mind.

I was a little intimidated to interview the man who built an empire from nothing in the UAE, but the authenticity we unlocked is what I needed and what you need to hear.We dive deep into the brutally honest, challenging realities of divorce, the pressures of co-parenting, and what it took to become a better husband the second time around.

In this episode of BioHack-It, I sit down with Dave Asprey, founder of Bulletproof and the creator of the biohacking movement, to challenge some of the most dangerous health advice we’ve all been taught.Dave explains why “eat less and work out more” is bad advice, how your nervous system and mitochondria actually control weight, energy, and focus, and why willpower almost always fails. We talk about chronic fatigue, inflammation, trauma, and the biological reasons so many people feel anxious, exhausted, and stuck despite doing everything “right.”We also dive into supplements, why modern food is nutrient depleted, the truth about biohacking for women, psychedelics and altered states, relationships, boundaries, longevity tools like gene therapy and stem cells, and what real optimization actually looks like.This conversation is about energy, freedom, and building a body and mind that actually work for you.Topics include: biohacking, weight loss, metabolism, mitochondria, nervous system regulation, supplements,…
