Summary
For 12 years, Zane Griggs was the poster child for intermittent fasting. He wrote about it, preached it on every podcast, and built his brand on it. Then his body broke down. In this episode, Zane comes clean about the metabolic stress that wrecked his sleep, thyroid, and blood sugar, and explains why he now believes carbs, not fasting, may be the missing piece for so many people over 40. We dig into why mitochondria (not cholesterol, not red meat) are the real pacemaker of aging, the truth behind the cholesterol and statin debate, why seed oils can sit in your body for up to 680 days, and why NAD IV drips might be a waste of your money. Zane also breaks down why the "train like a bodybuilder" advice most men follow actually started with steroids in the 1950s, and shares the one habit he'd tell his 30 year old self to drop immediately. If you care about metabolic health, biohacking, longevity, hormone optimization, or just want to know what actually moves the needle after 40, this conversation will change how you think about your daily habits. π 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 π Stay Connected With Us. π Instagram (Biohack-it): http://instagram.com/biohack_it/ π Instagram (Iman Hasan): http://instagram.com/imanhasan/ π Website: http://biohack-it.com/ ============================= π¬ Recommended Playlist π Season One https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLQWTIuStNqibK2-K-T3GfnIxdLlK_KXMD π¬ WATCH OUR OTHER VIDEOS: π Revolutionize Your Health with Dr. Vincent Pedre: The Transformative Power of Plant Medicine https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rcvHjUFT0-w π Why Modern Relationships Fail: Eβ¦
