Biohacking. It's a word that is becoming increasingly common. We are entering a golden age, where the AI and biotechnology revolutions are rapidly expanding our knowledge of how to prevent disease, slow down and even reverse the effects of ageing. Scientific breakthroughs in longevity research and personalised medicine, combined with ancient wisdom, are helping us unlock our biological potential. Biohacking is the art and science of taking control of your own biology and by using evidence-based approaches, we can optimize our bodies and minds. Sharpening our focus, improving our memory, making our bodies more resilient to disease and turning back the biological clock are all within our reach. Whether it's simple lifestyle modifications like intermittent fasting and sleep optimisation or advanced interventions like targeted supplementation and personalised medicine, biohacking represents a proactive approach to health and wellness that can add many healthy years to our lives. In this episode, I take a broad look at biohacking and how it can enable you to enhance your health and could greatly extend your life.

    Autophagy: Your Disease Fighting, Life-Extending Super Power

    Autophagy is the body's natural recycling system that cleans out damaged cells and renews them from within. We'll look at how this built-in process helps slow aging, boosts energy, and protects against disease, and how simple habits like fasting, exercise, and quality sleep can help switch it on.

    Chronic Inflammation: What it is, why it's bad, and what you can do to avoid it

    Chronic inflammation is closely linked to the biggest causes of death worldwide, silently contributing to heart disease, cancer, diabetes, and Alzheimer's. Unlike acute inflammation that heals injuries, chronic inflammation can persist for months or years, damaging tissues and organs without obvious symptoms. In this episode I do a deep dive on chronic inflammation and by the end of it you should have a better understanding of what chronic inflammation is, how it damages our bodies, what causes it and most importantly, what you can do to prevent it.   C-Reactive Protein Testing To find out if you might be suffering from chronic inflammation, a C-reactive protein (CRP) test is a good place to start.

    Creatine & The Brain: Can It Prevent Age-Related Mental Decline and Enhance Cognitive Function?

    Creatine supplements have long been a staple in the fitness community, proven to be a safe and effective way to boost strength and muscle growth. But today, its reputation is evolving from the gym to everyday life, thanks to emerging evidence suggesting creatine may also support brain health. Recent studies show promising benefits for memory, attention, and processing speed, with particular interest for older adults seeking ways to stay sharp as they age. With a new wave of hype about creatine's brain enhancing effects I cut through the surface layer to expose the hard facts. Quality Creatine Supplements I Use I use WeightWorld creatine supplements.

    Vitamin K2: The Quiet Nutrient Protecting Hearts & Strengthening Bones

    Vitamin K2 might just be the most important nutrient you've never heard of. In this episode of Quest Biohacking, we uncover this quiet powerhouse, a vitamin that helps direct calcium to our bones and teeth and away from our arteries, helping prevent dangerous plaque buildup. We'll dive into the science showing how it supports heart health, bone strength, and even plays a role in metabolism and emerging cancer research. And with modern diets leaving most of us deficient, we'll explore how adding more vitamin K2 could be a simple, powerful step toward healthier aging.
