HOST: Lisa Garr
GUESTS: Dave Asprey, Steven M. Druker
Dave Asprey joined Lisa Garr in the first half to discuss how he spent two
decades and over $1 million to hack his own biology - his latest techniques deal
with "biohacking" your own body for alertness, health, and energy. Asprey
recalled his early days in Silicon Valley, setting up servers for the first
version of Google, and making $6 million dollars by the age of 26, then losing
it by age 28. At the time, he was sickly and weighed close to 300 pounds. He
decided to figure out how to get himself back to optimum mental and physical
control all of our physical systems: mitochondrial bacteria. If we can fool
these control cells into doing what we want, Asprey says, we can "hack the human
body in the same way we hack computers."
He suggested a simple way to control your sleep cycles by blocking out all light
in your bedroom at night, including even alarm clocks, which he believes can rob
the body of quality sleep. Another front of action involves the diet, especially
the first meal of the day. Asprey says that his "bulletproof coffee" product
energy you consume) has gotten the energy it needs to function, and as he
claims, will "turn off hunger in the morning." Asprey also extolled the virtues
and injecting them back in to problem areas, which he says has cured him of a
variety of long-term ailments.

In the second half, Steven Druker, executive director of the Alliance for Bio-
Integrity, revealed how the public has been deceived about genetically modified
foods. He described genetically modified organisms (GMOs) as any living thing
that contains genes that have come from one organism and are transferred to
another one in a way that would never happen with conventional breeding. He
contends that the Food And Drug Administration has fast-tracked GMO products to
approval because of pressure from the government to keep the U.S. biotech
industry in a superior position. Druker's lawsuit against the FDA uncovered
evidence that the agency ignored the advice of many of its own scientists who
cautioned that GMOs could cause unknown health risks to consumers, which he
calls "a major fraud."
Druker says that while the original intention of genetic manipulation was to
create food crops that expressed desirable traits for health and productivity,
that the vast majority are engineered to withstand repeated applications of
pesticides, which only increases profit margins for the growers. Another concern
dangerous substances that are not known or intended. In 1994, the first GMO food
product introduced on the market was the "flavor saver" tomato, designed to stay
fresh longer, but Druker reported that the FDA administration ignored official
studies that raised warnings about the modified crop and approved it for sale
before additional testing could be conducted, which he referred to as "an
astounding miscarriage of the scientific process." He says that unlike the EU,
where press reporting called for more strict monitoring, the US press has widely
ignored the issue, choosing to rely on the assurances of the biotech industry
and a compromised FDA.
