Ben Greenfield & Davinia Taylor: The Human Guinea Pigs

What is biohacking and are you already doing it without realising? Evgeny spends a day with the ‘world’s fittest man’, Ben Greenfield, to learn how exercise, diet and light contribute to wellness. He also meets actress and author Davinia Taylor, who tells him how biohacking helped her get over the alcoholism she developed at the height of her TV success in the 90s. In this episode we learn about:


· Ben Greenfield’s journey from “fantasy novel reading, home-schooled kid” to ‘America’s Best Fitness Coach’

· His six tips on how to improve your health

· How and why to safely expose your body to heat and cold

· The importance of his faith to his wellbeing and business

· The genetic reasons why diets can work for some but not for others

· Why Davinia Taylor’s declaring “war” on vegetable oil

· How she’s turned her back on drink and drugs after years of addiction

· Her teaspoon of collagen tip to help with intermittent fasting
