My story
I am a recovering entrepreneur who for years abused my body with little sleep, bad food and not enough exercise. Luckily, I sold my company a few years ago and have been able to focus on my health. This write up is a synthesis of the things that worked for me. Please note, everyone is different and the things that worked for me might not work for you. The exciting thing though it is relatively easy to now track various bio markers so you can see what is working (or not).
My initial biomarker test scores were horrible. My biological age was twenty five percent older than my chronological age. I was over weight (needing to eat every three hours), not sleeping well and it felt like I had PTSD. Since this poor initial starting point, I have done some deep dives on the key pillars of health and have experimented with some of the latest thinking and technology and protocols to dramatic positive impact. I really believe that all of the technology advances related to Moore’s Law has allowed us to finally better understand our human biology and what makes it healthy (or sick). The challenge though is that there is a ton of noise out there plus lots of misinformation which makes it hard for people to really appreciate what they need to do (and not do) to be healthy.
Despite such confusion, I think it is clear that many of our “modern improvements” in terms of food, technology and new behaviors are actually making us sick. The explosion obesity, diabetes and other chronic diseases proves this point. Therefore, it is critical to make sure you don’t get sick from these seismic technology changes and instead leverage these new tools and understanding for proactive health and wellness benefits.
