143. Anthony & Tereza Lolli: The Biohacking Power Couple Who Proved The Medical System Wrong
I had made a decision to kind of die by obesity. So I had tried to lose weight like nine times. Finally, it was through her putting her foot down and saying, look, we love you and we want you to do something about it.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
143. Anthony & Tereza Lolli: The Biohacking Power Couple Who Proved The Medical System Wrong
We said, let's pull out all the stops. Let's really screen the people by personal referral, invite only. But we said we want to create a documentary that's different than the ones that exist. The ones that exist currently are mainly really talking about what's wrong with the system, how we need to get together. And most of the people you see in those documentaries you can't do business with.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
143. Anthony & Tereza Lolli: The Biohacking Power Couple Who Proved The Medical System Wrong
Or you have to be a stenographer and wait for the credits to find out what that person's name was. When you call them, they're a celebrity. So we said, why don't we create a documentary where we're meeting real people And you can get their backgrounds. You can feel comfortable about who they are and will lead you to find their podcast, their Instagrams, their websites.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
143. Anthony & Tereza Lolli: The Biohacking Power Couple Who Proved The Medical System Wrong
They actually have products and services. They'll share their pain to passion story. Maybe it's something you can relate with.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
143. Anthony & Tereza Lolli: The Biohacking Power Couple Who Proved The Medical System Wrong
I think people resonated with healing at that point because they all felt, I mean, especially with the weight loss documentary that we released during the pandemic, there was a crop of people who were like, okay, I'm going to get a grip on my health now. and they wanted to see that it was possible.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
143. Anthony & Tereza Lolli: The Biohacking Power Couple Who Proved The Medical System Wrong
And so I think when you go into this biohacking journey and your algorithms change, you start recognizing that a lot of these people are trending up. Every time I see you, you look younger. You know what I mean?
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
143. Anthony & Tereza Lolli: The Biohacking Power Couple Who Proved The Medical System Wrong
And when you really do a deep dive, there's a lot of transparency with all the people we've interviewed and featured in our documentaries. These are real people that have had real success with the protocols. And no one's perfect. Things change. And you're always up to date with the latest sciences and the latest studies. But the impact that it's having.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
143. Anthony & Tereza Lolli: The Biohacking Power Couple Who Proved The Medical System Wrong
So I think the pandemic itself really opened everyone's eyes to question, okay, this is not right.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
143. Anthony & Tereza Lolli: The Biohacking Power Couple Who Proved The Medical System Wrong
Steve Jobs died from cancer. You have Kate Middleton with all these cancers. So the elites don't have the secret. They don't know how to resolve these things. And so those are the things that are scary because Teresa's like, well, what does so-and-so do? What does this celebrity do? But this celebrity's dying. This celebrity's not feeling well.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
143. Anthony & Tereza Lolli: The Biohacking Power Couple Who Proved The Medical System Wrong
And the ones that are, are seeing people such as yourself. And they're the ones that are completely changing the way they look, the way they feel, the way they perform. Business, you know, success leaves clues.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
143. Anthony & Tereza Lolli: The Biohacking Power Couple Who Proved The Medical System Wrong
Well, what happened was we started promoting the documentary very early on. The buy-in and the collaboration and cooperation from the people we featured, we took a very social media approach. Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, X. And everyone was sharing the content. We produced shorts and reels, little clips from the doc. So people are already, when is it coming out? Is it out already?
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
143. Anthony & Tereza Lolli: The Biohacking Power Couple Who Proved The Medical System Wrong
What's going on? So it was like this huge demand for wanting to know more. So we started creating like a website that was like a news platform to really inform people about who these people are.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
143. Anthony & Tereza Lolli: The Biohacking Power Couple Who Proved The Medical System Wrong
Well, it started with me being 315 pounds five years ago. So you know, Teresa has this joke. She was Maha before the word was invented. It was make Anthony healthy again. Yeah. And so she was the RF.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
143. Anthony & Tereza Lolli: The Biohacking Power Couple Who Proved The Medical System Wrong
Yeah, we met about 13 years ago, disappear.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
143. Anthony & Tereza Lolli: The Biohacking Power Couple Who Proved The Medical System Wrong
Yeah, I mean, we didn't go in this blind. We're very skeptical. You know, we're from New York originally, so New York's are skeptical about everything. And so we went in there with an open mind, but also asked the questions and really by referral only. You mentioned there was a, you know, we had our own version of peer review. So anytime we casted someone, we went through the board
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
143. Anthony & Tereza Lolli: The Biohacking Power Couple Who Proved The Medical System Wrong
And so what do you guys think? Do you want to be in a documentary with this person? What do you think about them? And we turned down like a good portion of people that really didn't fit the bill to be involved in this because the other people were just like, I don't really believe in what they're saying. So if it's coming from that peer group, we respected it.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
143. Anthony & Tereza Lolli: The Biohacking Power Couple Who Proved The Medical System Wrong
They were watching. Well, they're trying to beat him up as usual. They're trying to beat him up in the confirmation hearings.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
143. Anthony & Tereza Lolli: The Biohacking Power Couple Who Proved The Medical System Wrong
We're really now health press. And so really the, the, the industry needs an objective, you know, a clear cut voice. Yes. And that's what we're doing now. And so it was an honor to be asked to produce that ball for Bobby and Dell. It was Dell participated in shield and, and, He FaceTimed Bobby and said, I'm right now, I'm at this biohack yourself.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
143. Anthony & Tereza Lolli: The Biohacking Power Couple Who Proved The Medical System Wrong
And Bobby and the team said, we need that kind of energy at the Maha Ball because these people are on the front lines. These people are the voices of Maha. These are the moms. These are the practitioners. And so we had, you know, our reporters are actually health advocates. They're practitioners.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
143. Anthony & Tereza Lolli: The Biohacking Power Couple Who Proved The Medical System Wrong
Respective people with their own platforms, their own voices. So they know. When they're asking questions, when they're interviewing them, they're not just some journalist with an agenda. Yeah, you had a beautiful pediatrician there.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
143. Anthony & Tereza Lolli: The Biohacking Power Couple Who Proved The Medical System Wrong
yeah the store you know when you go all the dolls all of the little things that's what health is looking like it's really exciting times right now so new era yeah very exciting we're protective about you know who we onboard and that's the main thing now once you're enlightened you're you now you're like okay this is the solution now who do i work with yeah that's the main thing and we want to point people in the right direction now that you understand this is the way
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
143. Anthony & Tereza Lolli: The Biohacking Power Couple Who Proved The Medical System Wrong
here are the people that we feel are the best. And these are people we're working with. We built deep, solid relationships with all the practitioners. We're Amon's clients. Everyone in the film we love.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
143. Anthony & Tereza Lolli: The Biohacking Power Couple Who Proved The Medical System Wrong
And they're bringing modalities into their practices.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
143. Anthony & Tereza Lolli: The Biohacking Power Couple Who Proved The Medical System Wrong
Well, they made an announcement yesterday. The new White House press secretary, who's the youngest ever, said, I'm reserving this front row. She's a ninja that one. I don't care if you're a TikToker, a YouTuber, or this, that, you know, we want to hear you. We understand that the young, so we have young journalists too. We have Hannah. We call her our Megyn Kelly.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
143. Anthony & Tereza Lolli: The Biohacking Power Couple Who Proved The Medical System Wrong
So she also had- She really had Megyn Kelly too. Yeah, she's the woman that has interviewed you a few times in some of the, and she speaks for her community. She had her own transformational journey. She's there at the documentary filming and she's working with some of the practitioners.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
143. Anthony & Tereza Lolli: The Biohacking Power Couple Who Proved The Medical System Wrong
And so she understands what the young group of a demographic is wanting and needing and can speak to that community.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
143. Anthony & Tereza Lolli: The Biohacking Power Couple Who Proved The Medical System Wrong
It was a clarion call because I had made a decision to kind of die by obesity. So I had tried to lose weight like nine times. I even did the gastric sleeve. Lost 50 pounds and then put on 70. But it was worse because now I couldn't absorb food, proteins. So I was worse off. My BMI was off the charts. And I just said, look, it's not going to work, honey.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
143. Anthony & Tereza Lolli: The Biohacking Power Couple Who Proved The Medical System Wrong
The goal, what we're trying to do is create clear transparency from the health organization down. So right now, if you want to get a driver's license, you understand the protocol.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
143. Anthony & Tereza Lolli: The Biohacking Power Couple Who Proved The Medical System Wrong
You take the test, you have the five-hour class, you take the picture, you take the road test, and then you get your... But if you wanted to advocate to get a product out there or make a change that your insurance company might cover... Who do you talk to, right? RFK, yes, the human health services, but who are the players? So we're really taking a, we're calling it health casting.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
143. Anthony & Tereza Lolli: The Biohacking Power Couple Who Proved The Medical System Wrong
You have sports casting, right? This is the player. This is what they do. This is their job. Same thing here. We feel like now we have a shot to really start over and introduce people. Okay, Dr. Oz, what does he do and how does that translate to your life?
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
143. Anthony & Tereza Lolli: The Biohacking Power Couple Who Proved The Medical System Wrong
I look at it like this. Look, I don't care if you smoke a cigarette. That's your business. But the public should know cigarettes are bad for you.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
143. Anthony & Tereza Lolli: The Biohacking Power Couple Who Proved The Medical System Wrong
You just need to know the consequences and people can make a conscious decision.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
143. Anthony & Tereza Lolli: The Biohacking Power Couple Who Proved The Medical System Wrong
I know you want me to get fit, but this is how I'm designed. But the other opposite end of the pendulum is that my success was growing. So there was no one around me except my loved ones saying, this is not good. It was just a bunch of yes people around me saying, this is great, this is great.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
143. Anthony & Tereza Lolli: The Biohacking Power Couple Who Proved The Medical System Wrong
Yeah, I mean, the way I look at it.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
143. Anthony & Tereza Lolli: The Biohacking Power Couple Who Proved The Medical System Wrong
I think the combination of Trump with RFK, you know, Trump is a business person. He understands the mechanics of business and what makes the world go round. And I think that there are companies and industries that are sick profiteers.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
143. Anthony & Tereza Lolli: The Biohacking Power Couple Who Proved The Medical System Wrong
And I think if you just want to be in the profiteer world, you can make money by providing healthy solutions because there's a bigger market that people will run for healthier options.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
143. Anthony & Tereza Lolli: The Biohacking Power Couple Who Proved The Medical System Wrong
It's evident, right? People voted with their dollars. A lot of people voted for Trump because it came with an RFK health movement. And so if you can shift your mindset, look, you're a good business person. It's kind of like taking Pablo Escobar. Had he not focused on that aspect, he was a great businessman. He could have done a lot more in the legitimate world.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
143. Anthony & Tereza Lolli: The Biohacking Power Couple Who Proved The Medical System Wrong
So there's legitimate ways that you can profit because there's a huge marketplace. Yeah.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
143. Anthony & Tereza Lolli: The Biohacking Power Couple Who Proved The Medical System Wrong
And so finally it was through her putting her foot down and saying, look, we need you alive because the kids love you, we love you, and we want you to do something about it. And then we decided to really just take it on like I would a business venture. And I said, okay, now I'm in the business of getting myself in shape. So what would I do if this was a real estate project?
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
143. Anthony & Tereza Lolli: The Biohacking Power Couple Who Proved The Medical System Wrong
We had the honor to sit down with the most famous bodybuilding champions. It turns out they're all biohacking. And so we said, why don't we create a situation where we can interview the best people in this bubble and also heal ourselves at the same time? So we created a documentary and we titled it Biohack Yourself.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
143. Anthony & Tereza Lolli: The Biohacking Power Couple Who Proved The Medical System Wrong
Yeah, yeah. And honestly, we want to really introduce breakout brands, similar to what Rolling Stone did. Here's a new artist. Here's a new sound. Well, here's a new modality. Here's a new practitioner. Here's a new voice. Here's a new podcast. So we want to be on the front lines of breaking that kind of news.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
143. Anthony & Tereza Lolli: The Biohacking Power Couple Who Proved The Medical System Wrong
I would hire an architect. I would hire this. In this case, I hired a transformation coach to live with me. Wow. Yeah.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
143. Anthony & Tereza Lolli: The Biohacking Power Couple Who Proved The Medical System Wrong
It's just, you know, Dr. Mark Gordon, who's in Biohack Yourself, he was just on Joe Rogan.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
143. Anthony & Tereza Lolli: The Biohacking Power Couple Who Proved The Medical System Wrong
For the sixth time. And he mentioned his appearance in Biohack Yourself. He mentioned myself and Teresa and everything that we're doing. He mentioned the platform. And, you know, we receive phone calls from top, top research institutes and universities who are like, hey, we want our researchers to be contributors to your platform. We want our word out. We want the messaging out.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
143. Anthony & Tereza Lolli: The Biohacking Power Couple Who Proved The Medical System Wrong
That was a commitment. And we had kind of been in media and entertainment. I was an executive producer. We'd do stuff together. She was a singing model and actress. So I'd already been in that world. But for the first time, I stepped in front of the camera, let the guard down, and did a complete transformation documentary that went viral during the pandemic.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
143. Anthony & Tereza Lolli: The Biohacking Power Couple Who Proved The Medical System Wrong
We're the ones in the... in the laboratory creating the science, and we want to be able to speak to the community now. Whereas before, they were kind of like shying away, pseudoscience. They're like, no, this is where the eyeballs are. We want to be able to communicate what we're finding, our discoveries. And also the donors and benefactors want that kind of visibility as well.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
143. Anthony & Tereza Lolli: The Biohacking Power Couple Who Proved The Medical System Wrong
No more trauma bond, health bond.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
143. Anthony & Tereza Lolli: The Biohacking Power Couple Who Proved The Medical System Wrong
For me, it's reverse engineering. So what the 100-year-old Anthony would thank the 47-year-old Anthony for the decisions that I'm making right now.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
143. Anthony & Tereza Lolli: The Biohacking Power Couple Who Proved The Medical System Wrong
that's really what i feel the ultimate human would be and so there's a movie called back to the future it impacted me because uh biff goes back in a time machine advises his younger self to do all the with the sports almanac and changes the trajectory of his financial life i feel like i can see into the future and and and really make decisions now that will impact me in the future and my sphere of influence around me my family obviously that's amazing yeah
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
143. Anthony & Tereza Lolli: The Biohacking Power Couple Who Proved The Medical System Wrong
And you found the hub. Found the hub. That was one hub that I found. And we were able to resolve and mitigate the weight loss situation. And that turned into us really doing a dive into bodybuilding. Because once you learn about transformation, you learn that there's a whole community of people that have completely erased what they look like and they're competing. So we got involved in that.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
143. Anthony & Tereza Lolli: The Biohacking Power Couple Who Proved The Medical System Wrong
And then she got bit by the bug and wanted this because now it was the opposite. Now, I was the one in shape.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
143. Anthony & Tereza Lolli: The Biohacking Power Couple Who Proved The Medical System Wrong
It was unavoidable.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
143. Anthony & Tereza Lolli: The Biohacking Power Couple Who Proved The Medical System Wrong
Absolutely. Completely transformed our life. And then Teresa started looking into her health, right? Yeah. So then she went through her own physical transformation journey from the outside. So we started competing and we competed together. You guys are competing together? It's amazing.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
143. Anthony & Tereza Lolli: The Biohacking Power Couple Who Proved The Medical System Wrong
So I went from being an obese guy who wouldn't even be cast to play the father of my own kids on some commercials that the kids booked. They'd have to get a modeling.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
143. Anthony & Tereza Lolli: The Biohacking Power Couple Who Proved The Medical System Wrong
Kind of like what he's doing. That's what I would be doing on set.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
143. Anthony & Tereza Lolli: The Biohacking Power Couple Who Proved The Medical System Wrong
Watching some other guy.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
143. Anthony & Tereza Lolli: The Biohacking Power Couple Who Proved The Medical System Wrong
so anyway it was like you know it was that and amongst other things and then what ended up happening was she's like wait a minute i have a mom bod let's compete so 32 times around the world we competed we did a docu-series about that turns out there's a lot of other couples that struggle with weight and and challenges and and use exercise to bond so this kind of solidified our relationship even further
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
143. Anthony & Tereza Lolli: The Biohacking Power Couple Who Proved The Medical System Wrong
So out of nowhere, she becomes a two-time bikini pro. I become a muscle model pro. And then we're like, wow, we made it physically. Turns out her hormones were out of whack.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
143. Anthony & Tereza Lolli: The Biohacking Power Couple Who Proved The Medical System Wrong
And we're like different signs, right? So we were like, okay, this is not maybe the journey to clearly health, bodybuilding, extreme bodybuilding, and the kind of diet and exercise we were doing.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
143. Anthony & Tereza Lolli: The Biohacking Power Couple Who Proved The Medical System Wrong
Then we were asked to do a bodybuilding documentary where we had the honor to sit down with like 32 of the most famous current and past bodybuilding champions, Mr. Olympia, Arnold Classic Champ, great people. We got a chance to really build a bond with them. Turns out they were like, this is not the way to live. And they're all biohacking. All doing things to recover, repair.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
143. Anthony & Tereza Lolli: The Biohacking Power Couple Who Proved The Medical System Wrong
So there was kind of like little antidotes like that after talking to all of them, seeing what they're doing now to kind of fix and right their wrongs that they did. And we're like, that's interesting. And then our son, you know, got hit with mold toxicity.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
143. Anthony & Tereza Lolli: The Biohacking Power Couple Who Proved The Medical System Wrong
But had we went with the recommendations that, let's say, Langone gave us.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
143. Anthony & Tereza Lolli: The Biohacking Power Couple Who Proved The Medical System Wrong
Oh, my gosh.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
143. Anthony & Tereza Lolli: The Biohacking Power Couple Who Proved The Medical System Wrong
But thanks to your work and the algorithms that at least we got a chance to see your work, we're like, well, let's second guess this thing. Someone else is really saying This is not good. Let's see what's going on. You came at the right time.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
143. Anthony & Tereza Lolli: The Biohacking Power Couple Who Proved The Medical System Wrong
But still in all, it was very confusing because it's just you and then who else, right? So there's a lot of infobesity out there. And so we said, why don't we create a situation where we can interview the best and most vetted and accredited people in this bubble that we discovered, just like we discovered transformation, just like we discovered bodybuilding.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
143. Anthony & Tereza Lolli: The Biohacking Power Couple Who Proved The Medical System Wrong
Let's change the algorithm and group everybody together. and also heal ourselves at the same time. So we created a documentary, and we titled it Biohack Yourself, because she's like, I want to biohack myself.
