Biohack-it

In this episode, I sit down with a man who was instrumental in my own healing journey: the "medical shaman" himself, Dr. Ivan Rusilko. We’re diving deep into the hot topic taking over the US right now—peptides. But we aren't just talking about the surface-level trends; we're breaking down the critical difference between medical-grade and "research" peptides, and why where you source your "key" to cellular health matters more than you think.
I share the vulnerable story of my own nervous system breakdown and why I chose to ignore the recommendation for SSRIs, opting instead for a four-week protocol with Ivan that didn't just bring me back to life—it made me feel better than my original self. We also discuss his incredible work reversing "incurable" conditions, including a 96% drop in cancer markers for a Stage 4 patient and restoring the quality of life for an 85-year-old battling Parkinson’s.
From the neuroplasticity of ketamine and the "miracle grow" properties of Cerebrolysin to the spiritual "Law of Amplification," this episode is an masterclass in living an extravagant, healthy, and high-frequency life.

I have always believed that "curiosity heals," and today I am sitting down with one of the most talked-about women on the internet: Sadia Khan, PhD, MBA. You’ve likely seen her viral clips on TikTok or Instagram, and while she is no stranger to controversy, I wanted to peel back the layers and hear her side of the story—from her "big dirty secret" involving a years-long setup to the truth about her background as a psychology teacher.
We dive deep into the differences between Eastern and Western family values, why "similarity feels like settling" in modern dating, and the biological wiring that makes women crave dominance and protection. Sadia doesn't hold back on the "soy boy" crisis, the toxicity of weaponizing intimacy, and why she believes a man's most important trait isn't his height or his money—it’s his intelligence and his ability to see through manipulation. Whether you agree with her or not, this conversation is a masterclass in understanding the hidden dynamics of the modern home.

I have always been drawn to wellness products that are simple and effective, but what my guest shared today blew my mind.

What she found was Algae—andit's not a supplement, it is a medical grade whole foodAs the Founder, CEO, and Chief Scientific Officer of ENERGYbits, Catharine is on a mission to explain the science of the mitochondria—the "power plants" of your cells.

I sit down with the incredible Kris Fade (of Dubai Bling and Virgin Radio) to discuss everything he’s never fully revealed. I was a little intimidated to interview the man who built an empire from nothing in the UAE, but the authenticity we unlocked is what I needed and what you need to hear.We dive deep into the brutally honest, challenging realities of divorce, the pressures of co-parenting, and what it took to become a better husband the second time around. Kris shares the true, crippling story of his battle with anxiety and depression, what it was like hitting rock bottom, and the moment he realized the medical system failed him with unnecessary prescriptions.You’ll hear our unscripted, controversial discussion about biohacking: the truth about Peptides (BPC-157) and TRT (Testosterone Replacement Therapy), and how he got his mind and body in the best shape of his life at 45. This isn't just a talk about success; it's about the relentless drive, the importance of loyalty, the fear of the unknown (from xenophobia to health), and why everything he does is for his children.

In this episode of BioHack-It, I sit down with Dave Asprey, founder of Bulletproof and the creator of the biohacking movement, to challenge some of the most dangerous health advice we’ve all been taught.Dave explains why “eat less and work out more” is bad advice, how your nervous system and mitochondria actually control weight, energy, and focus, and why willpower almost always fails. We talk about chronic fatigue, inflammation, trauma, and the biological reasons so many people feel anxious, exhausted, and stuck despite doing everything “right.”We also dive into supplements, why modern food is nutrient depleted, the truth about biohacking for women, psychedelics and altered states, relationships, boundaries, longevity tools like gene therapy and stem cells, and what real optimization actually looks like.This conversation is about energy, freedom, and building a body and mind that actually work for you.Topics include: biohacking, weight loss, metabolism, mitochondria, nervous system regulation, supplements, longevity, psychedelics, trauma healing, relationships, boundaries, fasting, nutrition, consciousness, Dave Asprey.Chapters:00:00- Intro 01:45 Dave’s health crisis and why nothing worked04:10 The weight loss lie keeping people stuck06:00 Mitochondria, energy, and fight or flight09:00 How to calm your nervous system for real12:00 Psychedelics, breathwork, and altered states15:40 Trauma, boundaries, and cutting off toxic people19:20 Relationships, dating, and emotional regulation22:30 Discipline vs freedom and “extreme laziness”26:00 Supplements that actually matter31:00 Why modern food has fewer nutrients36:30 Biohacking myths and industry mistakes41:10 Gene therapy, stem cells, and longevity tech47:30 Women, intuition, and mitochondrial health52:00 Eastern medicine, consciousness, and wisdom58:30 Final advice for energy, health, and freedom🔔 Hit that subscribe button for exclusive access to thought-provoking podcasts, self-growth tips, inspiring guidance, empowerment for bold spirits, and more!https://www.youtube.com/@Biohack-it/?sub_confirmation=1 🔗 Stay Connected With Us.👉 Instagram (Biohack-it): http://instagram.com/biohack_it/ 👉 Instagram (Iman Hasan): http://instagram.com/imanhasan/ 👉 Website: http://biohack-it.com/ =============================🎬 Recommended Playlist👉 Season One https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLQWTIuStNqibK2-K-T3GfnIxdLlK_KXMD =============================✅ About Biohack-it.Welcome to Biohack-it!
