In this episode of Eighty Twenty, Georgia Sinclair and Shanina Shaik are joined by Aggie Lal, an expert biohacker and author of the recently published book “Biohack Like a Woman.” Aggie explains how biohacking is about continuously improving health, feeling amazing, and even reversing your biological age. Simple hacks involve eating your food in the right order to lose weight, learning to eat train and fast according to your cycle to optimize your health. They discuss optimizing nutrition, outlining the importance of balancing your blood sugar levels. Aggie recommends eating vegetables first, then protein and fats, finishing with minimal carbs. She advises avoiding inflammatory seed oils, instead opting for olive, avocado and coconut oils, as well as grass-fed butter. Oat milk spikes blood sugar, whereas coconut milk boasts inflammation-reducing fats. On reducing biological age, Aggie focuses on decreasing inflammation through muscle building, which enables your body to handle sugar intake. Fasting, detoxes, and diet upgrades all help achieve this anti-inflammatory state. Though the concept seems restrictive, Aggie believes biohacking is about feeling and functioning at your best. Overall, Georgia and Shanina find Aggie’s approachable methods towards bettering your health highly compelling. Inspired to slowly integrate these life-enhancing, achievable biohacks, Georgia and Shanina look forward to continuing their biohacking journey. Check out Aggie Lal’s “Biohack Like a Woman”, out now!
