Angela is in conversation with sisters Renee and Lauren hosts of the Biohacker Babes podcast and in this wide-ranging and informative discussion they share their personal biohacking experiences and highlight what’s worked for them. Biohacking is about knowing yourself and putting together the pieces to make positive changes and this is a great opportunity to hear from three experienced biohackers about how and what they are currently biohacking. KEY TAKEAWAYS Biohacking is about nobody knowing your body as well as you do and women are much more complex than men. There are little things along your journey that no practitioner is going to be able to figure out. You have to know your body inside out and know how to tie the pieces together. A coach can help you to speed the process up but they need to listen to what you are telling them. When you start tracking and looking at the data, that’s when you start to see what happens when you do something. Biohacking is about personalisation because we are all unique, what works for you will be different from what works for someone else. If you are fasting as a woman you have to consider the stress it puts on the body and whether this is the right time for you. Lack of sleep can be what causes the biggest impact in your life, lighting and working at night can affect your sleep. Driven women push hard and this can put you in a situation where your cortisol levels become very low and don’t get the chance to replenish. Slowing down can be the way to put your body back in balance. BEST MOMENTS ‘I love that we have to question and find our own answers’ ‘Once you let go and work inwards in a positive way you will be able to achieve the fitness and health you want’ ‘You have to manage stress and there are many different elements to be considered’ GUEST BIO Lauren Sambataro and Renee Belz grew up in a health-driven family that prioritized the fundamentals of wellness and self-care (don’t worry, there was lots of mac n’ cheese and peanut butter and jelly sandwiches!). Their father, Gene Sambataro, The Original Biohacker and pioneer of Holistic Dentistry, taught them the importance of individualization and experimentation from a very young age. Coming together as health entrepreneurs, Renee a Certified Nutritional Consultant and Holistic Lifestyle Coach with a Master’s degree in Nutrition, and Lauren, a Broadway performer, Corrective Exercise specialist and Functional Health Coach, feel a strong passion and drive to not only share each of their journeys towards wellness, but their strategy and motivation to discover our unique bodies through the world of biohacking. Their podcast, the Biohacker Babes, aims to create insight into the body’s natural healing abilities, strengthen your intuition, and empower you with techniques and modalities to optimize your health and wellness.
