  • Biohacking with Heart!

    Freddie Kimmel is such an inspiration! I love how he explores the intersection of wellness technology and mindset, especially for those navigating chronic illness. He makes biohacking feel human and accessible, and his focus on finding beauty in the "broken" parts of our journey is so refreshing. A must-listen for anyone looking to upgrade their health and their outlook!

  • Why does Dr Krishnan have to say the word  "right" at the end of every other sentence? What a horrible vocal crutch, right? Unbearable, right? Just make your point and don't ask, "right". I had to stop listening after 5 minutes, right?

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Juvent's Micro-Impact Platform: Bone Health & Vibration Plate Safety with Peter Simonson
Q: How does Juvent determine the right frequency for a person?
Juvent sweeps a safe range of frequencies (roughly 32 to 37 Hz) and uses an accelerometer to monitor motion, adjusting in real-time to each individual's weight and response to maintain safe, effective loading.
Thyroid Health, Hashimoto's & Mineral Balancing for Women's Hormones with Sophie Shepherd — She Talks Health
Q: What is the relationship between hormones and inputs like minerals and stress?
Hormones are largely reactionary to upstream inputs, so balancing hormones often means addressing foundational inputs such as nutrients, sleep, stress, and detoxification, which helps hormones regain balance.
Ultrasound Vagus Nerve Stimulation Explained: Jon Hacker on Zenbud & Nervous System Tech
Q: Tell me about Zenbud.
Zenbud is a vagus nerve stimulator that uses ultrasound to target a branch in the middle ear, offering a frictionless, app-free headset designed for daily, passive use to promote nervous-system regulation.
715 Burpees, Thyroid Cancer & the Healing Power of Touch: Stephanie Thaler on Adhesion Release, Ketamine & the Body's Capacity to Heal
Q: What has ketamine therapy meant for your mental health and practice?
Ketamine provided a profound, rapid, and lasting shift in depression and anxiety, enabling the guest to regain safety and functioning, which in turn supported better patient care and business growth.
715 Burpees, Thyroid Cancer & the Healing Power of Touch: Stephanie Thaler on Adhesion Release, Ketamine & the Body's Capacity to Heal
Q: How would you describe adhesions to a listener new to the concept?
Adhesions are collagen-based connectors that form when the body can't handle the load placed on tissue; they can entrap nerves, and the release involves both identifying affected nerves and manually freeing the adhesions to produce immediate relief.
