There's an inconvenient misconception about nutrition, specifically that...

"You don't need to supplement vitamins and nutrients as long as you eat a healthy diet."

While eating a healthy diet is crucial - it's one of the first steps of Biohacking, if you're sick, depressed, or unproductive you should optimize your diet first - it's not enough.

• You could spend two thousand dollars a month eating the finest organic food.
• You could only eat at the best health food restaurants in your town.
• You could spend hours in the kitchen every week meticulously prepping your meals.
• You could never cheat on your diet.

And despite your best efforts and accruing significant expense, you could still be nutrient deficient and in non-optimal health.

Skulachev Ions (or SKQ1) are smart antioxidants; smart because they specifically target the Mitochondria that actually need them.

This makes SKQ1 a very potent, economical, and safe anti-aging agent, I'll make the case in this article that it's the cutting-edge anti-aging innovation of tomorrow.

'Tis the season to feel a little under the weather.

Every year as the seasons pass and the leaves change colors most people anticipate getting sick but getting through it anyway...

• They will be sniffling and dabbing their runny nose frequently.
• Their stomachs will grumble with nausea.
• Their sinuses will get blocked up with mucus.
• They'll toss and turn in bed for hours before finally sleeping badly for a few hours.
• They'll be tormented by migraines.
• They'll cancel their weekend social plans so that they can sleep extra.
• If they get sick they'll double or triple dose on the DayQuil, NyQuil, or Paracetamol.
• They'll maybe even spend some long hours kneeling before the porcelain throne.

I'll suggest you can avoid this suffering this winter if you spend a bit of attention (and money) fortifying your immune system.

Gents, I've been working on a science fiction novel that you're really going to enjoy - about seduction, biohacking, social dynamics, and philosophy - with a very provocative working title - Not For Sex Addicts.

Ladies: I joyfully devote myself to loving a woman and I read at least a couple of books every year to better understand women. I’ve done a lot of writing on relationships and sex that is gender-neutral. But this book will be for men. I contend that men need to take more leadership (first of themselves), to right the sexual Absurdistan of modernity. And this novel will inspire them to do so with prose, dialog, and a narrative you may not enjoy reading.

Book Review: An HRV-Hackers Guide to Living Fully for Every Beat

HRV is a topic I've been interested in for a while as a Biohacker. I've completed over 300 HRV training sessions with HeartMath's devices; which has made me a better meditator and generally, a cooler cat. HRV is a particularly pragmatic metric for the Biohacker thanks to the abundance of science done on the topic and the advent of consumer-grade devices you can use to track yours.

The Pulse Cure, by Dr. Torkil Færø, is the most recent (and, in my opinion, approachable and actionable) book on the topic. The book is the result of a study group of 198 Norwegian volunteers that Dr. Torkil (as he refers to himself on his popular Instagram account) led in using HRV wearables. It is punctuated by a number of anecdotes from Dr. Torkil's Garmin watch study group. For example: Melina, 41, adds

Don’t get stressed out thinking that you have to follow all of the scores and data every single day. Go at your own pace! Eventually you won’t need to track all the data. You will learn when it is the right time to check your status. (p. 94)

Tusen takk (Norwegian for “a thousand thank-yous”), Melina!
