Why Biohacking For Women Is So Important - with The Biohacker Babes

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.
