Can Kids Take Smart Drugs? Jens says: He's from the Netherlands, and he's wondering what the best supplements are for kids to get their max performance at school? In my response, I recommend: -L-Theanine by Thorne -Fish Oil -Magnesium (e.g. Kid's Calm Liquid Multi) -Neurohacker Collective Qualia (use code BEN15 to save 15% or BEN15r to save 15% on recurring) Can Ketosis Cause Muscle Damage? Dave says: He's 4 weeks into ketosis and 5 weeks out from his first marathon. He did a 24k run yesterday and afterwards he had pale brown urine and he was advised to go to emergency where they told him he has rhabdomyolysis because his body could no longer burn fat and that it started to break down his muscles because he had no carbs on board. His question is, is that possible? Why would his body stop burning fat because of a lack of carbs? They recommended he take some carbs before a long run, which sounds like carb loading, and he's concerned if he does that before the marathon, once they are gone, his body won't be fat adapted and he'll be in worse trouble than when he started. Can you clarify? In my response, I recommend: -My How To Get Into Ketosis article Can Infrared Saunas Lower Sperm Count? Jay says: He appreciates your bad-assery and appreciates you putting it on your podcast. He has some questions about sauna. He bought a sauna a while back and didn't think about EMFs - does this mean he needs to get rid of it and get a new one? And do you know anything about sitting on an ice pack while sitting in a sauna, just so the 'gentlemen's' boys don't get too hot. In my response, I recommend: -My biohacked sauna how-to article 23andMe vs. DNAFit Polly says: Polly is from Columbus Ohio, she started listening 4-5 months ago and got interested in biohacking thanks to you. She's interested in getting her DNA tested because she thinks she'll find out a lot to optimize her well being, but she's not sure about the difference between 23andMe, DNAFit and the other programs, like Promethease. She has read your blogs but she's still confused, can you help her out? In my response, I recommend: -23andme -23andyou -DNAFit Services that provide analysis of Raw23andMe data Some of these pages are actually more or less replacing the old reports of 23andMe with health risks, some are ancestry related. Page exclusively written about this post topic - 23andYou - repository of many tools dedicated to extracting information from your data by 23andMe Promethease - a literature retrieval system that builds a personal DNA report based on connecting a file of DNA genotypes to the scientific findings cited in SNPedia, analysis cost $5–10. Decodify.me - is run by Joe from selfhacked.com and is in beta-release for biohackers Genetic Genie - provides some methylation and detox reports (for me, at least for now, detox is just kind of buzzword with no exact meaning) FamilyTreeDNA - family finder thing DNA.land - geneticists from Columbia University and the New York Genome Center that will use your data for research and provide you some report and /or find some relatives of you Livewello - costs about $20, reports for 600,000 SNPs, AND attach 12 resources for generating reports DNAFit - reports from 23andMe data about fitness and diet Servies that can help you with SNPs analyzed SNPedia - kind of a wiki pages of many SNPs analyzed by 23andMe PubMed - I use it as a newspaper dbSNP - repository not only for human species’ SNPs Ensembl Gene Cards Genetic Home Reference - consumer-friendly information about human genetics from the National Library of Medicine MalaCards - an integrated database of human maladies and their annotations, modeled on the architecture of GeneCards database of human genes OMIM - an online catalog of human genes and genetic disorders Sterling’s App - I don’t know much about this, but could be usefull for findings about methylation, costs $10–30. WikiGenes ..and of course SciHub and LibGen could be usefull too. Or just any good library. Other interesting services GEDmatch - tools for DNA and Genealogy Research Ancestry.com Geni.com - service for creating your own family tree (I got to this while searching in 23andMe database of user’s names that could be related to me)    See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
