97. Biohacking 101: Hacking Your Way to Superhuman Performance and Living Longer

Karl and Erum are taking us into the world of biohacking, discussing its various definitions and practices, from simple lifestyle changes to more extreme measures like genetic modification. They dig into the growing movement toward improving health, longevity, and human performance, touching on biohacking pioneers like Brian Johnson. Their conversation includes insights on the ethical and societal implications of biohacking that are really thought-provoking, as well as how technology and biotechnology are pushing the boundaries of human potential. Don’t miss it! Grow Everything brings the bioeconomy to life. Hosts Karl Schmieder and Erum Azeez Khan share stories and interview the leaders and influencers changing the world by growing everything. Biology is the oldest technology. And it can be engineered. What are we growing?
