Finding peace with data | Chris Kawaja

from Optimising Nutrition Podcast Hosted by Marty Kendall

Chris has a fascinating background. After studying economics, business and psychology at Stanford and Harvard, he worked as a trader Ray Dalio at Bridgewater Capital, the world’s biggest hedge fund (now with $150b under management), to a private investor, author, father, athlete and biohacker. Like me, Chris believes in the numbers! After a couple of rounds of Data-Driven Fasting, he’s been trying to get his Silicon Valley biohacker buddies to try it to optimise their health. As a data-driven engineer who’s dabbled in trading, I thought it would be fun to chat with Chris about how we can manage our psychology and biology with data. How can we tame our lizard brain to avoid self-sabotage that is often caused by our self-doubt in any area, including nutrition? It was fascinating to hear how Data-Driven Fasting helped his brain find peace and calm around food and nutrition. Having peace that your body will get food exactly when it needs it is a nice change from the anxiety that popular extended fasting methods can often cause.
