And then, you know, kind of worked in London for a while, went to the buy, then moved to the States. And I've lived in America now for 10 years. And so I've always kind of worked in PR, marketing, kind of that whole like, you know, realm of things. And five years ago, I was having a lot of my own personal health issues.

My entire career is self-made. It's self-built. Obviously, I don't say self because obviously people have helped me along the way with friends and people like colleagues. But I'm self-made to some extent, right? Like to pretty much all extent. My career was not handed to me. And I never had a problem, you know, being a minority, a Muslim, a woman. That was just never an issue on the table.

And so I kind of think people are their own worst enemies and people get into their own head. And You know, kind of create this self vilifying like narrative about like we are the victim. We're the victim versus being like, I'm incredible. I have a great opportunity here because I am different. Right. I bring a different perspective to the table. And that's actually going to be my superpower.

If you tell me somebody like Tulsi Gabbard was running hands down, most people would vote for her.

Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
She's incredible. She's a colonel at the army. Like you would vote for Tulsi hands down. Why? Not because she's a woman, but she's fit to rule, like run the country and actually position of like, running the country in a way that we'd all be proud of, right? I don't think Kamala lost because, oh, she's a woman. She lost because she's inadequate to do the job.

And at the time, I did a lot of PR marketing for hospitality and spirits and a lot, a lot of fashion and luxury retail. And then five years ago, I was having my own health issues. My mom was, you know, had cancer for about 10 years and kept on fighting the cancer. And I was like, something does not seem right. And I was very fortunate that I got introduced to a functional medicine doctor who was

I personally think that America needs strong leadership right now. Another world like a World War Three. And it's a disaster. We need somebody to come in and be like, I'm going to hunker down. Like, I don't know. I don't think I'm not under any delusion that he's going to be perfect, but I definitely was a better candidate. And I do think.

the people that he, not everybody that he's bringing in, but a lot of the people that came in with him with this cabinet that are coming through, with the people like Elon, Vivek, I think they have a better sense of what to do and I think their hearts are more in the right place. Elon's the wealthiest man in the world. He's already famous. He's already wealthy beyond what he needs to be.

What is he in this for? He's in here to make change. And I think that is the kind of people a lot of us elected, right? People like Bobby Kennedy, who didn't need to be doing this, but here he is, who really want to do this to make change and leave this country a better place than they found it. And as somebody who's living here, I want that. I live here. I'm born in America.

So if I'm here, I want to see this place a better place than I walked into. And for my future children, I want to leave a country that I'm proud of being part of what we're building. And, and I think personally, America has been in a very dark place a lot longer than we've realized. I think it's, it goes back decades. It's not just, we didn't just get here today.

Well, uh, George Bush was a disaster. He was a complete neocon. I can't, I can't stand either one of them. So we've been here for a long, long time, but I think it's somebody's finally, he's going to raise up, you know, and say, what's really been cooking under this mess.

They've practically tried to run this country to the ground. The fact that we have the highest number of like chronic disease, yet we pay the most per capita than any other country in the world on health care should tell you the state that we're in. And if people are not sounding the alarm and that is not concerning to you, then I don't know what rock you're living under.

had me take a complete different look at my health and spoke about things like candida and spoke about like inflammation in my body. And at the time I was suffering from ovarian cysts. I'd keep on having reoccurring cysts. I'd had multiple surgeries. And he's like, you have an estrogen dominance problem. And this is coming from this place. And it's not by you being on the pill.

Natural flavors is nothing natural, not natural flavors.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
So basically, okay, so you see it at the back of like food labels and stuff like that, right? Natural flavors are derived from chemicals to put flavoring in your food that is to make it more appealing and essentially more addictive. But a lot of it's like a hodgepodge of different chemicals. So natural flavors are actually toxins going into your body that can also cause cancer, right?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
So natural flavors are like a no-brainer. Then you have things like added sugar. Sugar is probably, I would say, if I had to list everything down, sugar is probably at the top of the list, probably one of the most dangerous. And we take it in a little bit of dessert. We take in a little bit of that.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
It is probably what's linked to the highest rate of like cancer essentially than anything else, even more than glyphosate, right? Glyphosate is coming up the block, but... sugar is really what's decaying us and causing us a lot of inflammations. I would say like, it's like things like sugar, then you have your glyphosate, then you have your seed oils that is inflaming your body and your cells.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
And so it's a trifecta, right? All of these things kind of combusting at the same time. And our bodies, I'll back up a second. The reason these things are a problem is that our biology is still the same, but the environment we live in has evolved. But our biology, our cells have not evolved. So being around
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
you know, EMFs and being around like these 5G towers and being around like all of this like white light and eating all this toxic processed, highly processed foods. Our bodies don't know what to do with it. The cellular levels, our cells have not evolved, but the environment around us has evolved so much that we're living in contrast to how we should truly be living inside.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
And in America, especially, we're eating such ultra processed foods like you can't escape it. Like it's almost rare to be able to find something grass fed, you know, pasture raised. farm-to-table restaurants, it's easier to get fast food, right? And so you're living in this toxic soup, and then we are not detoxing properly. We're not removing the toxins from our bodies.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
And so what it's causing, it's causing more disease. So whether it's, you know, natural flavors for sure is like one thing to avoid at all costs. Anything that has added sugar in it, you need to be avoiding at all costs. Glyphosate is a weed killer. Can you imagine putting that in your body? No.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
So I think it has to be both non-GMO and organic because just because it says organic does not mean it does not have glyphosate on it, right? And I think one of the things which is hard to do is like sourcing food, like products from Europe, like if you can afford it, that's a lot of people are doing, right? But then it's the other tricky part that comes in.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
Some products that are made specially to travel to the US are treated differently than products you actually buy in Europe, right? So there's that piece of it. I think removing grains from your diet and eating what is an ancestral diet, which is like pretty much grain-free, is a thing that we need to do as Americans because the grains are also making us super inflamed.

You're not fixing the root cause. And that was kind of my first introduction. I know you're super passionate about peptides, but And then kind of from there, just dove deeper. And when my mom, two years ago, passed away from ovarian cancer and I was completely against her treatment protocol, which was just like radiation and chemo.

Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
And glyphosate, unfortunately, is in so many different things now. And then they're trying to pass this law to say that you can't... I mean, synthetic wheat is going to come in. So imagine having synthetic wheat in and then you can't even sue somebody if you get sick from all this glyphosate overload in your body.

Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
It's what big pharma basically did with the vaccine saying you cannot... sue pharma companies for being vaccine injured, right? That law was passed. Right. They do. And so what it gave is it gave the big pharma heart blotch authority to run rampant. And so like I'm born in 1983, right? When I was born between 1983 to 1986, The vaccine schedule, I think, was 20, 25 vaccines all over.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
Now the vaccine schedule is like close to 107 vaccines. And the crazy thing about this is Big Pharma does not have to do studies combining all the different vaccines. So there is not one study unless I missed something completely. There is not a single study on the market.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
that looks at all the different vaccines children are getting and the accumulated effect of those vaccines, all the heavy metals, all the things going in, and what is going in over that time. So by the time, let's say, a one-month-year-old has, I think, up to 90 days of birth, the child is getting anywhere from almost 20 vaccines or something like that.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
That was probably the accumulation of every single vaccine we got when I was born in 1983 to 1986.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
that we got fully i have a stat somewhere i'm actually going to pull this up while we're speaking because i want to do this it was crazy to me blew my mind and this is the other thing farmer companies are allowed to continue doing this without providing new research there's not even up-to-date research in the last 20 years so we've added more vaccines to the schedule but yet we have not added in new research to show what it's doing to your body accumulated altogether

Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
And then the rates of autism and ADHD go up and they're like, well, you know, this is not really, it's not correlated. Yes, it is. A hundred percent is correlated. So this is it. In 1986, right, we had vaccines given to us at two months, four months and six months, right? So we had about four vaccines, six vaccines. Over here, this is a study. CDC just published its 2025 vaccine schedule.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
We have gone from seven routine vaccines injections, it was even less than I thought, in 1986 to over 200 routine vaccine injections in 2025.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
So I was wrong with my numbers. Seven? I thought it was like 20. Seven to 200. In 1986, before vaccine makers had broad immunity to diabetes for injuries, the CDC's schedule had seven routine vaccines that we know. Now for 2025 has five routine injections during pregnancy. over 70 routine childhood injections birth to age 18, and over 113 routine adult injections up to age 39, 79, sorry.

And now we know those are things that not only kill off the bad stuff, but also kill off the good stuff. Cancer is a metabolic disease. It's a lifestyle disease. I... started looking at it from a different lens. And I remember coming back and telling my team, because the agency is still very young. I worked for a lot of other big companies and four years ago started IHC.

Can you imagine? And so we have a broken down biology already, right? Because our cells are functioning in a way that we're not meant for this like fast-paced environment and metropolitan life and all that stuff. Then you're poisoning us through our food. You're adding shit to our water. You cannot deny that they put shit in the sky because people have seen literal chemtrails and stuff.

Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
Our bodies are loaded with toxins and then you're injecting us on top of that. So what is going to happen? Obviously, there's going to be a rise of chronic disease. Cancer is diagnosed in children like ADHD. There's going to be fatty liver disease. Fatty liver disease, an adult disease. that was only in adults, is now being diagnosed in children. Why?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
Because of the fructose that they're taking in. So how can you not see the writing on the wall with all that we're seeing? You have to be blind if you don't want to pay attention to this, but the rise in chronic diseases that were reserved for adults showing up in children. And what is going on with the environment around us?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
So if you really think about it, oatmeal is not, there's no nutritional qualities in oatmeal, right? But it actually spikes your insulin, right? So the other problem with us is, and why I said the whole grain-free thing, that doesn't mean like anybody listening to me, that doesn't mean I'm fully grain-free. I love my pizza. Like I indulge, right? Right, right. But this is a problem.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
Most Americans are metabolically broken. We're not metabolically flexible anymore. Right. So you can be as petite and skinny as me as I am. But I had I had metabolic issues. And it's why because of this toxin overload and all the shit in our food. So it is causing us to be metabolically unhealthy.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
So then we have insulin resistance issues. Right. Which is also leading to things like infertility and all that stuff, which is why they tell you when you're trying for fertility, you need to stabilize your insulin levels. So if you eat something like oatmeal, right, all it does is spiking your insulin. Right.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
And so it's easier because we're so broken as it is to remove this stuff and go back to what is like an ancestral diet, I would say. Right. Eat like our ancestors. Whole foods. unprocessed. You eat your fruits, you eat your vegetables, you eat meat, taking enough protein. So you're actually like full enough. All of this stuff about being fat free was completely wrong for us.

Now we've become a national agency. We're based in New York, Miami, and expanding overseas to the Middle East. We have a team of 15 people. and growing. I remember coming back and saying, listen, we've done this for so long and I've built a lot of these incredible like household name brands, but I want to focus my energy on building out the health and wellness department of the company.

Our bodies need healthy fats to operate. This was a fad. Like that's one of the worst things that we did to ourselves, especially as women. Fat free. Why the hell are you going? What are your cells made up of? Your cells are made up of lipids. They're fats. If you're not giving your body enough healthy fats, how are you going to function? You're going to have freaking brain fog.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
So all of this stuff is now getting kind of debunked. So personally for me, it's like, if you can try to be as grain free, but of course you're a human adult, but like, and maybe people say like, Hey, the 80, 20 rule doesn't apply. Yes. But sometimes people are just so tired and always try to choose the best options on the menu.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
Or if you're, if you're eating out and if you're home, definitely for us at home, we take no, like we cook with healthy fats, healthy oils, um, We cook kind of gluten-free at home completely. We take a lot of grass-fed, grass-finished protein. We have kind of wild-caught fish. So we're really careful with that stuff. But for a race of people that are metabolically broken...
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
I don't think adding grains or sugars or any of that stuff is going to help us because what it does is spikes our insulin. And spikes our insulin, this yo-yo that we do all day. So if you put on like a thing like a levels like glucose monitor, most people are going like this all day. And that is what's breaking us down even further.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast

Well, Kellogg's, I wrote this down because I was going to talk to you about this. Kellogg's saves 500,000% per pound by using artificial colors instead of real fruits and vegetables. So in America, we are served a very different version of Kellogg's. Not that I'm saying Kellogg's per se is healthy at all.

And I was so affected by the way my mom's diagnosis went down. And I was so deathly against this, you know, kind of 2020 and 2021, everything was kind of happening. I was so deathly against her taking the booster shot, completely against it. And she took the booster and three months later she died. And there was no reason for her to take the booster.

Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
But we're served a very different version of Kellogg's than other countries allow it because we allow it because the FDA approves it, allows in more food dyes and preservatives to retain shelf life and keep fresh. So you've basically given this company, Carp Launch Authority, to churn out shitty products that can stay on the shelves longer so they don't have to actually invest that much.

Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
And what it's causing is it's a huge issue. 15 million kids when it comes to public schools have fed this stuff, this crap in the school. And why is that? Because companies like Big Food, Big Agriculture, Big Pharma, especially Big Food and Big Ag, are... part of the lobbies and kind of like write what is allowed into the school meal systems, right?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
They like, hey, this is what's going to be allowed and this is what should be on the schedule and stuff. So they find all these different loopholes. So you're telling me even if you and I don't feed ourselves that or our kids that, there are 15 million kids who go to public school every day and that is on their lunch menu and that should be allowed?

And it's full of red 40, yellow 5, all linked to behavioral issues, chronic disease, and things like cancer. And then you sit and cry about the fact that you're like, well, autism and ADHD rates are going up. Yes, they are going up because of what you're feeding these children. And all it is doing is giving them a sugar high. There's no nutritional value in eating like Kellogg's.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
Why are we even feeding Kellogg's to children in schools? Developing minds, developing bodies. Why are they even given this junk? It is equivalent to junk food.

I mean, diet and the plastics. We're taking in, in a week, a credit card worth of plastic. This is actually a statistic. This is actually an article that was published. That's how much plastic, think about that. We're taking in, in a week, a credit card worth of plastic. And I think it was something else that I read, and you can look this up, it was like,

And I was thinking to myself, why would you give an immune compromised person who's not leaving the house the booster shot? And so that kind of is where my passion came for the space to dive deeper. And at the time, health and wellness was very like mom and pop and it was a bit like kitschy. So they didn't have the elevation.

Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
over time because of our over plastic exposure that we're having I think like it's like a 8% of our brain is developing into plastic so you have a foreign entity like a foreign thing in your body that's not meant to be there that cannot be broken down it cannot be digested it cannot be secreted out of your body right mm-hmm It's in there. It's getting in your organs. It's causing toxicity.

So your body doesn't know what to do with it. So it stores it in there. So there's also this crazy research about like men's testicles, the amount of microplastics they have in them. And it's in our clothing because the stuff is made like, let's say in China, it's full of like hot plastic, synthetic, all of this stuff. It's everywhere.

So, of course, the environmental toxins that we're putting into our body, right? paired with the crap that we're eating, of course, there's going to be decline in testosterone levels. And then on top of that, men are just not as healthy as they used to be, right? They spend all their time on screens. And so another thing is blue light.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
We're not supposed to have blue light exposure to this extent because it plays with our circadian rhythm. If your circadian rhythm is affected, it breaks down your hormone production. So everything is linked. And then on top of that, if you look at the fact that, you know, kind of corporate farming, you know, industrial farming has demineralized a lot of the soil.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
So it's not like all we're eating organic. There's a bigger problem here. When your soil doesn't have the right minerals in it and you are mineral deficient, your body cannot produce hormones. Minerals lead to hormone production, right? Potassium, selenium, magnesium. You need these crucial minerals that used to back in the day come from our food, come from our soil. When you are...
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
deplete of actual minerals your body cannot actually produce hormones because your hormones are produced from also getting these right minerals in so all in all also commercial farming has played a big role in this so yes most of us are eating organic but we're not getting the right amount of minerals from our food so we're having to supplement with all this stuff

it's what the animal's actually being fed, you know? Is it processed, is it grains, or is it actually being able to roam in a pasture and actually eat grass and consume it? And it's not just grass-fed. This is another greenwashing term. And greenwashing, basically, for anybody listening, means

way that these big food companies play around with words to be more appealing but they get away with it under the radar so this grass fed but this grass finished is the animal just given the grass for a short portion of its life or is it given that till the end and that is all that they're given which means grass finished so a few years ago we all started learning about well most of us who are kind of a little bit newer to this might have started learning about hey grass fed

So I said, what if I took my knowledge and everything that I built and learned like from different countries and editorial background going into peer marketing, all of this stuff and put it towards building like brands and personalities and products in this space. And so we started getting into it.

Other people might have known about it longer, but now it's this whole thing about grass finished, which goes a step further. It's like, that's why it's important to know where you're buying your produce from, what is your farmer feeding it. And it goes down to eating like the way Americans used to in the 60s and in the 70s is small produce.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
Knowing where your food is coming from, learning about how these farmers are treating their animals, even raw milk. Raw milk is actually where all the goodness is, right? That's where the healthy fats are. That's where the amino acids are. The pasteurization is causing the issue.

Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
Right. And so we've like demonized these things, like going back to the grass fed, grass finished. That's a really big thing to look for. But also raw milk has been demonized for long, so long. The problem is not with dairy. The problem is with the pasteurization, the process of removing, you know, they mean the good stuff from the dairy is causing the health issues.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
And that's where you can't die physically digested and people are breaking out and they feel uncomfortable and stuff. It is a processing. And why they process this stuff to give it more shelf life.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
I mean, listen, I personally love raw milk and it sits really well with me and I don't have these breakouts and stuff. But I can tell you if I had regular dairy, I completely break out with it. Raw milk itself, and anybody listening can look it up, has so many great health benefits for your gut. It just has so many great benefits to it. And I think this is another thing. It's having this...
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
wild control and narrative about how all the things that are good for us, bad for us. The thing with meat, people advocate so aggressively against meat and they're like, oh my God, it raises your cholesterol levels and you will have blocked arteries and all that stuff.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
Max Lugavere just posted a study, I think it was yesterday or the day before, showing that they cannot directly correlate with taking a good quality protein, like high quality meat, with like blocking your arteries, right? So there's not enough data there to suggest that. And I just think, I mean, I think for me, it's like going a step further.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
It's about controlling the things that are actually good for us and kind of demonizing all those things. And so raw milk, yes, the whole thing about it is that we have to pasteurize it to remove any sort of disease or viruses from it that needs to be heated to a certain point. But that's when you're damaging the actual milk.

Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
And then you're kind of saying, hey, well, dairy is the actual problem and it causes inflammation when dairy actually in its original form untampered with has so many great benefits.

glyphosate-free product actually you're eating, which is why people gain all this weight in America. And in Europe, they go eat the same way they don't feel the same. They don't gain the weight and feel like shit. So keto is amazing. I know it's helped a lot of people with severe chronic disease. It can have amazing health benefits. Personally, I think you'd like need to cycle it in and out.

I do not believe in being extreme with anything that I do. I, you know, tend to keep like, you know, on days I weight train a lot, for example, so days that I'm kind of weight training, trying to gain more muscle, I will keep actually personally, I will keep my carb intake a little bit lower.

And I try to really focus having more protein, especially most women, most of us don't get enough protein and to begin with, right? I have a balanced diet. I try to eat organic, real, whole foods. So kind of like an ancestral diet, right? I eat organs, I eat poultry, I eat fish, I kind of eat fruits and vegetables. I don't demonize food. I really think that's a bad, bad, bad thing to do.

Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
This is good and this is bad. The only thing that's bad for you is processed and things that have been tampered with. Everything else kind of goes. I eat in moderation. And I try to start my day with a lot of proteins. I start my day with like 20 to 30 grams of protein and then kind of take it from there. And that actually keeps me satiated for longer as well.

So I don't fall into any of these like, well, I eat like this and I eat like that and just identify with it, whatever. I do personally have more of a palate. I mean, I love meat. I'm very prone to that. And I really enjoy it. My husband, you know, likes fish a little bit more. And I think that comes down to... Like my genetics, my genes.

I'm Pakistani and I'm from the north of Pakistan where we tend to consume a lot of meat. We like, we come from a big barbecue culture. It is something not foreign to us. It's part of our staple food. So we would eat it every single day. I crave that. And I feel like if I don't get enough meat, I crave it. It's like one of the things I want with every meal.

So healthy fat oils. I love key. Personally, I love key. I love butter. You know, olive oil is amazing for its polyphenol qualities. But anybody listening, please make sure that you're buying a high quality olive oil that is single source, meaning it comes from one origin point is manufactured in one place. Because what they've also started doing is the other thing is they water down olive oil.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
If it comes from multiple sources, then you're getting not good quality, right? And it's being tampered with and mixed with and kind of that. So when you're buying olive oil, you want a single source which maintains quality and integrity, and you want it to be manufactured in one place. Ideally, some of the best olive oils obviously come from Europe. So that's the thing. Ghee is amazing.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
Butter is amazing. Avocado oil is amazing. And then you have that whole plethora of all your essential oils. grape seed oil and all the kind of like the seed oil categories, right? And there's a whole list of them. And I think that's another big thing is We can't avoid them because they're here and they're around.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
But I think there's ways like when eating at home, especially you really need to mitigate things. Or you can use an app called like Seed Oil Scout, which like looks at local restaurants in your area and kind of will tell you, hey, these are the seed oil. These restaurants are all seed oil free. This is the ones to shop from. And it's amazing. So it's literally called Seed Oil Scout.

Like canola is like, you don't want to touch that if your life depends on, but a lot of restaurants use it. So canola oil is the one that's used by most restaurants. Unfortunately, that's actually one of the worst ones. So then you have soybean oil, you have sunflower oil, you have safflower oil, you know, all of these different things.

And I think Dave Asprey posted this the other day, how the names change, but you still need to watch out for it. So, Any of these oils are inflammatory oils. They're low-quality oils. They're inflammatory. And what they do is, and this is the other thing I want to explain. When you talk about your health, you need to talk about the health of your cells.

Every single organ in your body has mitochondria in it, right? Everything in your body operates from your mitochondria, right? So if your mitochondria is compromised because it's like swimming in a toxin cesspool and it cannot really function because it cannot even produce ATP.

So magnesium helps improve the quality of your sleep, all of that stuff. So this, and for me, PC that I just spoke to you guys about is non-negotiable. And then instead of taking another supplement, take in a healthy fat. You want to take in, you know, olive oil because of the polyphenols. You want to have some butter, ghee, whatever it is. A healthy fat. Keep it simple.

I think, listen, I think that, again, this is the thing that we're not addressing the root cause issue. We're just people with another drug. It's not going to fix your baseline problem. But here is the drug, you know? Were you in any of the talks at Edemonia where it got really controversial?

Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
They went wild. So listen, I... It goes back to the fact that we are metabolically broken, right? And that's what GLP wants to kind of regulate and kind of get us back into baseline. But why are we not trying to fix the root cause? And yes, some people are at the point that they're super obese and they just are so tired and they're exhausted and they have kids and they cannot do it any other way.

Get your together and they're just on it because this is an easy solution. So again, we have turned to pharma for a solution on our health when it should actually be related to like fixing the root cause.

What are you actually putting in your body? What are you putting in your mouth, right? What are you opening your mouth and actually putting in? Is it clean? Is it organic? Is it non-processed food? Are you getting in enough movement? I just think that we're going towards pharmaceutical companies, again, for solutions on our health, which I think is giving up too much control.

Is there a place for it? Absolutely. There's people that need it. Some people will have a different opinion to me, but some people are just to the point that they're so... And they're so large, they're tired, they don't know what to do, and that sets them off on a good starting point. But I think it should be bigger than that.

There should be a lifestyle, aggressive lifestyle modifications that need to be made at the same time. And I'll tell you guys something fun. So when I was starting my fertility treatments, they said, hey, you need to balance out your insulin levels and all that stuff. It needs to be... moderated, you know, so you're not having insulin spikes because I was not wearing a tracker.

And there's natural versions of GLP-1. So the brand I spoke to you about called Body Bio, they make this thing called sodium butyrate. Butyrate is so well researched and studied at completely neutralizing insulin. and putting good bacteria back into your stomach after each meal, right? That does not mean you should go eat a chocolate cake, but you can eat it, and it'll neutralize that.

Berberine, another really, really great thing. Alpha-lipidic acid. These things come in combined things as well that you can get, and they're completely natural GLP-1s, and they regulate your blood sugar, which essentially what is a GLP-1 does? It kind of sends a signal to your body, to your brain, hey, I'm full, I'm satiated, I do not need more food, healthy.

coming down how many calories you're actually intaking, right? And the second thing it does is keeps you fuller longer because it, again, sends out signals to your brain, I'm good, I've eaten, I'm fine, right? So why are we looking to do that more through lifestyle changes? And then why are we not doing it through these other healthy things? And it's really about retraining ourselves, right?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
I think a lot of people have started using like food as an emotional crutch or just to get through things. We're eating for the sake of eating versus eating with purpose.

I was at a friend's house yesterday and they're like, literally like eating a tub of ice cream. There's eating ice cream. They're like, we're on Manjaro. And I was like, like, Sure. Great. I'm just looking at them and I'm like, and they asked my husband, they're like, you're not taking it. I was like, no, he's not taking it. He's making lifestyle choices like he's not taking this shit.

You know what I mean? Like he he works out. He he's going to do it the right way because I and that doesn't mean like people I don't know have done it. It's fine. But what I'm saying is you're not fixing the problem. You get to the root cause and retrain your body versus just being dependent on one thing or the other.

I just think the beautiful thing, like you've kind of said, is you have to be passionate and about. And this is where a lot of like even the doctors are coming out and saying, Dr. Casey Means has come out.

I agree 100%. And listen, people like somebody, a doctor told me yesterday, right, because my hormones have been a little bit all over the place. And he's like, hey, your estrogen has been low for so long, you should take, he said, like very, very, very, very low dose semaglutide. Because if your bones, it helps with bone density because I'm worried about your bones or whatever.

So I've taken my weight training from one day, two days a week to four or five days a week, right? I'm lifting a lot right now to compensate for that. And I'd rather boost my levels naturally. And obviously I've added in bioidentical hormones, not synthetic.

Tessamoreline is another one that, you know, does really well and it kind of builds your natural like, you know, growth hormone in your body naturally. Is it tessamoreline that one that you take at night that also builds your natural growth hormone levels? So that's another thing. Do not inject. And I don't know what you think about this, but like I do not believe in injecting growth hormone.

If people going to medical school are indoctrinated from the minute they walk into medical school because they're funding for all the studies, the research, the curriculum that's being taught is all coming from things like big pharma, big food, big ad. And they're churning out. And there was something, you know, I was watching another podcast.

it's great. It's like, it's the collagen building blocks of your body. So when I take it versus I don't, I haven't taken, I haven't taken it for like four or five months.

It's really great for like building that, you know, the collagen and elastis and especially as you're aging, you need that to go with your body. So I think it's a great peptide for men and for women. It's a great look, but everything. Right. Do it in moderation. You need to put it in and out. You cannot just be in it all day, every day. You cannot be dependent on anything. You should not be.

Methylene blue. We didn't talk about that, but there's benefits of methylene blue being researched with like preventing like Alzheimer's and Parkinson's research. Methylene blue is incredible for your mitochondria, guys. And if you stack these biohack stacks, sometimes they're really great, right?

So you go to the doctor today and you're like, I had this, right? I had a brain cyst, I like take the pill. But why am I actually getting cysts? Like, let's talk about why I'm actually getting cysts. Hey, you have PCOS, here, take the pill. PCOS is a metabolic disorder. You're not metabolically flexible, which is why you're getting things like essentially PCOS, but they're not screening for that.

It's the same thing with childhood vaccines. It's like you go to the gynecologist and they get paid to give everyone like a prescription to the pill. And so I recently, because I'm doing IVF, one of my doctors wanted to control my psych a little bit, put me on IVF. the pill. They could regulate when they can do the retrieval and all that stuff.

And I go and I pick up a pill that was just sent to the pharmacy, whatever, and I turn it around and it has like yellow five in it. And I go and I'm like, why the hell Does my birth control have yellow five in it? Right. I said, I've spent months cleaning up my body, getting all these toxins out of my body. What is actually going on over here? And I think I posted that on my Instagram.

Doctor literally writes back. And luckily, my IVF doctors are super functional. They said, Iman, there are barely any pills without dyes in it. Red 40, yellow five, sorry, red 40, yellow five, all of that stuff. And I'm like, what do you guys mean? And they're like, it's going to be so hard. Go back to the pharmacy.

Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
And I did a whole reel about this. So they put... Food dyes in the pills so that you can differentiate which one you're taking, when you're taking them, like, you can just label the damn thing.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast

They know everything. that insurance companies have to pay them and they get paid when they write off a prescription and it gets sold to something that belongs to pharmaceuticals. And so if that's where all the money is coming from and they're caught in this hamster wheel, there is no more critical thinking.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
And also, think about it this way. I'll step back further. So we know food dyes, okay, they're linked to hyperactivity, but they're also linked to chronic disease, and they're linked to a rise in cancer rates, okay? You're telling me as a woman, you're taking something synthetic every single day, right, except for the one week that you are recycled, right?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
Every single day you're putting it into your body. It is synthetic. It is shutting down your ovaries, right? Sending your signals to your ovaries to shut down. And you're not detoxifying properly. Most people aren't. And so you're slowly every single day adding a synthetic thing into your body that is toxic, that then has direct correlation to things like cancer. So what does that do for you?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
Just think about all of this. And my doctors agreed with me. They were like, listen, I think there was two brands of pills that were completely dye-free. I said, so you're taking a synthetic hormone with food dyes that are linked to cancer, and you're putting it in a woman's body, and your ovaries are shut down. Like, what? What?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
So women's health overall is so understudied and under-researched until like a few years ago. Like ovarian health is just being spoken about because back in the day, people used to be like, oh, well, women are like little men. No, we're not. You know, men have one 24-hour hormone cycle. Women have four different hormone cycles a month. We're completely different.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
Our anatomy is completely different. We're built differently. We function differently. You know, we hit menopause. We have so many things that go on with us. So women's health is so understudied. And I think all of this research is now just kind of coming to the surface. And women are becoming more educated and more aware of this stuff.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
And they're like, actually, because for so long we believed the doctors. Right. We believe the guys in white coats because we were meant to trust them, right? They're supposed to have integrity. They're meant to keep you safe.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
But now that all of this stuff, whether it's a Maha movement or before that, people are waking up and they're not trusting just their doctor and they're going to do their own research. And do you see the article? I don't know if it was in the New York Times or something like that about how You know, it's made up in our heads if we're not feeling well.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
There is no more independent thinking because you're penalized and punished for thinking outside the box. So you have a whole slew of people who cannot look past what they're being trained or their belief systems because then everything would fall apart. So then you have people like yourself who take it upon themselves to do this research and be like, hey, something is not adding up here.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
So women have also been gaslit in medical circles for so long when they showed signs of menopause, when they said they took a pill and it wasn't working for them. It's not making them feel good. It's just like, oh, you're just being fussy. The gaslighting has now also come to the surface.

But there's so much also good research out there. If you want to dig and look in and ask questions, you will find alternative solutions. And the problem is these insurance companies have their claws so deeply around the medical system and just feeding the doctors one sort of an agenda. You walk in and let's say you have an appointment with a doctor. Like, hey, I'm not feeling well.

I'm having issues sleeping or whatever it is. They have 10, 15 minutes to see you. They're not asking how much screen time are you getting? How much light are you getting? What's your nutrition like? Are you eating? They don't have time for that. All they have time is to write you a prescription and get you out there and wait for the next patient to come through.

Then what's happening is the healthcare that we're talking about, which is this alternative healthcare, functional, holistic, all that, that is so expensive because it's not covered by insurance. So a lot of people don't have access to it. But it should actually be the other way around. This is how healthcare used to be.

It's causing this complete disaster that we're witnessing in our health care systems that we're just looking for outside people to maybe give us validation on things that don't feel right with us internally.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!

You know, and you see a lot of these like, registered dietitians that are, like, kind of standing behind, like, but it's okay what Kellogg's is putting in because food dyes are really not that free. What are you talking about? Food dyes are not bad for you. They're linked to hyperactivity in children, which later leads to things like autism and ADHD.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
Like, what are you talking about that food dyes are not bad for you? Food dyes are also linked to cancer. Like, so... Who is paying you? And then you have to dive deeper and be like, who's funding these people? What are they part of? Are they part of this independent think tank? Well, who's really funding the think tank over here? It just becomes this really nasty web.

Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
And I feel like so many people are just paid shills for these big organizations. And so the whole industry of like health and wellness to some extent got like in some ways has lost its credibility. And then people who do speak out like Vani, the food babe, who is amazing at the work that she does. She's attacked again and again and again. Her family's attacked.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
So it's just it's terrible what we've done.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
So I feel positive. I feel very relieved because there was no other party on so many issues that I was aligned with, you know, and I and a lot of us got the ability to come on and say, actually, you know, we lean right. We are actually Republicans because in the last election, you wouldn't dare open your mouth and open social media because you would get canceled and all that.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!

you know immigrant woman and people are like shocked they're like how could you align with the right but why would i not because they speak to so many things that i value right and so there's this whole like backlash like almost like the backlash that happened on this you know leftist legacy media and people like myself started speaking up and saying hey this is where i actually aligned and a lot had to do with the maha movement but then also a lot of other things so i feel very

I'm excited to see them kind of coming to this. But at the end of the day, we need to remember the Senate still needs to stand behind this. And we don't know how easy or hard they're going to make it. I mean, I don't have a crystal ball. I obviously don't work in politics. I don't know that. But so far, you know, them appointing Jay Bhattacharya was an amazing thing. Dr. Marty.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
So they're bringing in the right people to do this, to be part of like the FDA and the CDC and the NIH. Right. I just hope this goes through. And that's only going to really see kind of in the new year, because when everybody comes back from holiday, because at the end of the day, we do need to remember that President Trump has obviously pushed this through.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
But now it's down to them getting, you know, actually appointed into these positions. And there's trillions of dollars on the table of lobbying corruption that needs to be removed and taken out. You know, you're talking trillions on the table. And so now the American people, all of us are really going to see, is it the power of the people or is it the power of the lobbies?
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
And if we can, I truly believe, Dylan, if we can dismantle this now, we are as Americans going to set ourselves free going forward because we will tell these lobbies that you do not have power over us any longer. And we are going to be a party of the people and a nation for the people that are going to make free choices. And we will vote for people who will do right by us.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
And if you don't do right by us, you get removed from office and you don't get a round two.

Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
And this doesn't just pertain to our health. This pertains to wars. This pertains to everything. Because American people thought they had a voice, but they have been silenced for so damn long that now they're finally waking up.

So I've been working in like the PR marketing kind of space for like, you know, I give my age away by saying this, but I started working really young. I was 18 years old when I started my career.

And I'm a brown Muslim woman. I don't go around life being like, well, I'm a brown Muslim woman. You should hire me because I know I get hired for jobs because and I do the work I do and clients pick me at the agency and they come work with us because I have merit. Yeah, I do what I do. I'm not opening doors for my diversity card.

Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
I'm not walking in and being like, this is what... No, I don't run with that. I run with the fact that I am the best person for you to hire to build your business because I'm qualified in these areas and my team is qualified. The whole thing about running on diversity, there should be diversity because diversity of opinion.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
There should be diversity because we all bring different things to the table in terms of intellect or experience. But diversity of skin color... What are we doing here? And then this whole thing about like... When I came out and said, hey, I'm like, you know, I'm supporting Trump. I'm supporting Bobby Kennedy. I'm supporting people like Tulsi.
The Dylan Gemelli Podcast
Episode #11 Featuring Biohack-it Host Iman Hasan! Importance of questioning medical norms, Calling out Kellogs, Political Perspectives on Health, Vaccination Trends and Health Implications, Process foods dangers, grass fed vs conventional and more!
And they were like, well, Trump is a bigot and a misogynist. I'm like, well, if you go on that route, he's he's brought in more women to positions of power. I may not agree with every single person he's appointed, but we'll talk about that. He's also like trying to they just came out that Kash Patel, head of the FBI. I'm in Pakistani. He's Indian.

So I'm like, on what card are you guys like doing all of this on? You know, so. It's too much of this like race first when it should be American first. Like you get qualified and hired, Christian, Jewish, atheist, whatever you are, it does not matter. You should get hired to a position because you have the merit to do it.

167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
The slower you go into menopause, the more life expectancy you can have. If we can slow down menopause, it extends women's life expectancy. I just want to help as many women as possible because the fertility industry is only booming, but they're missing so many key things which makes a woman live a happier, healthier life.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
And improve your fertility levels overall.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
One of the biggest thing is you need to check your insulin resistance. Insulin completely destroys your actual egg.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
Well, only 7% of us are metabolically flexible in America. So if you look at that statistic alone, that means most of us, plus 90% of people are walking around chronically inflamed. So what insulin essentially does is when you have a lot of insulin circulating in your body, your follicles actually have these insulin receptors in them.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
So when the insulin hits your follicles and you have access, kind of insulin that cannot get rotated out of your body, what ends up happening is it starts damaging your follicles and therefore it compromises your egg. It also affects your sex binding hormone capacity. So your globulin does not work correctly.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
So what it does is overall, that's a cascade of like just infertility kind of going around and nobody's looking at it. So PCOS and endometriosis is both caused by metabolic disorder, right? It is caused through insulin resistance. But most fertility clinics do not cover it. They don't talk about it. They don't bring it up.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
And then everyone's like, well, why are GLP-1s being so successful when you're going through a fertility journey? Well, why is it being successful? It's because you're lowering insulin in someone's body.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
And the other big thing is I think women need to start weight training, because what does weight training do? It helps grab out all the excess insulin you have in your body and kind of weeds it out. So there's a lot of little changes you can make by understanding your baseline, where your hormone levels are at, just beyond what they test for. It's beyond AMH and FSH, right?
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
Because that's the two markers they really look for. Understanding your homocysteine levels, running a full thyroid panel, not just a couple, running the whole thing.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
Thank you, Gary, for having me. I've been such a fan of your work for so long. So it's truly a pleasure for me to be sitting here across you.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
Yeah, fasting glucose. What is your fasting glucose levels? And checking how inflamed you are and reducing the inflammation, reducing the level of toxins, getting yourself really fit and healthy. And then if you decide, hey, I want to do IVF or I want to try naturally, then you take that route.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
So we have a lot to learn from the East when it comes to fertility, and I'll tell you why. If you look at countries like China, Japan, Korea, they prep their bodies for one year. Really? One year prior. So in America, we like to do everything brush. We like to have a magic pill.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
How's Tuesday? Let's Tuesday, you know? Exactly. And so we're like, wait, we're doing this completely wrong. So removing toxins from the food you're eating, a lot of women have personal care products that are leeching out all these toxins into their body. So prepping a year, being really intentional, what are you storing your food in? What are you actually consuming?
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
Eating whole food, unprocessed food, removing the seed oils. It's not just a fad. It makes a massive difference.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
So starting a year prior, removing a lot of toxins, understanding if you can afford it, obviously it comes down to resources, but pushing your doctors if you're going the fertility route to test you for a full thyroid panel, test your fasting glucose, all of that stuff, cleaning out the toxins in your body, and then kind of getting into regulating your nervous system.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
If you have an unregulated nervous system and your body's in chronic fight or flight, How are you going to get pregnant?
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
Yeah, they're clients of ours, yeah.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
Yeah, yeah, Vibrant Wellness.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
First and foremost, if you can afford it, before you even go to a fertility expert, you can go to your levels checks from your OBGYN, find a functional medicine doctor or really well-trained nutritionist to work with because they can check for a lot of these biomarkers on you and they will clean out your system.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
Clean terrain means better chances of fertility, whether naturally or through IVF, all of that stuff. When my husband started, I'll give you a little bit on male fertility for anyone listening. When my husband started, we did fertility testing together. His sperm count was in the trash. He was shocked. He was so personally impacted. He now has gone into HRT and stuff. And no, he was on it.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
We took him off because testosterone destroys your sperm.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
And a lot of these functional medicine doctors kind of put you on this peptide, put you on testosterone, and what it does is it destroys your own, motility basically gets destroyed. So we put him on a bunch of supplements, cleaned out his gut, fixed his gut, got him detoxed, got him ready, got him firing. And now he went back and did a test. He's like, wow, his fertility levels were super high.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
Like his sperm count was incredible.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
Yeah, his sperm count was amazing. So now he was like, wait, why did I not know this earlier? So him also removing ultra processed food, getting on this anti-inflammatory diet, cleaning out any plastics in the house, all of that made a huge difference to him. And then we put him on supplements, vitamin D, magnesium, selenium. We put him on NAD precursors, you know?
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
And there's another thing that people don't know. So there's a whole fad going around this whole community, like the longevity community, about NAD. Now, the NAD molecule itself is too big to actually get into the tissue. So when you're getting these NAD IVs, the Buck Institute of Longevity has come up with this research. They actually spoke about it in Mark Hyman's podcast.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
The molecule is too large to get into the tissue. That is why the precursors NMN and NR either are... Nicotinamide riboside. That's why it's much better.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
And paired with antioxidants, because if you take NMN or NR and put it into your system, but you have a lot of oxidative stress in your body, it will break it down, so it can't do its job.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
Now, NMN and NR are also being researched when it comes to women's ovarian aging, helping slow down women's ovarian aging. Again, a longevity drug like rapamycin. And it's actually a supplement, and it slows down ovarian aging. The more we slow down our ovarian aging, the better chances we have of fertility. Right.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
And there was a 2019 JAMA study done that showed that if we can slow down menopause and go into natural menopause later, it extends women's life expectancy. So the slower you go into menopause, the more life expectancy you can have. Wow.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
The weird thing about hormone replacement therapy, by the way, infertility when it comes to men and women is men should not be on it, but women should be if you need on not synthetic bioidentical hormones. So one of the other things is nobody tested me for this prior and I go see one of these fertility doctors who's more like looking at it from a longevity lens. She's incredible.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
Her name is Dr. Amy Azadeh. Her Instagram handle is The Egg Whisperer. She said to me- At Whisperer. At The Egg Whisperer. At The Egg Whisperer. At The Egg Whisperer. She literally is an egg whisperer.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
She's the one who got me on rapamycin. She's like, you need to go on rapamycin. You need to go do stem cells and PRP for your ovaries. And I was like, wait, you're the only person who's saying this.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
Stem cells, umbilical cord stem cells and PRP for the ovaries.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
And there's a lot of research, and I'll get into it, coming out of Greece, because they've really been leading the charge, that is slowing down women going into menopause, it's extending fertility, there are more live birth rates, because that's how they calculate it all out. So it's newer to the US, but other countries are doing it. And so she said to me, you need to get on bioidentical hormones.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
Like you need to go on hormone replacement therapy. And she started me with these estradiol patches that I now wear. And then, you know, according to my cycle, when we're calculating it, because we're obviously trying, she then puts me on progesterone. And it's actually good for you.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
And then there was other research that came out that women have been lied to about going, because there's a lot of things in the female health community about should I be on hormone, should I not? You are actually supposed to be on it.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
you are actually supposed to take it because that whole study that came out that women in their 60s should not be on a hormone replacement therapy was a lie. And now the OBGYNs are pissed off.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
You can start with a basic female hormone panel and work with the right practitioner who can read that and say, because also functional doctors have tighter ranges. General practitioners have really big ranges because they're not looking at healthy, optimized people.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
Correct. And so the range is so wide. I think you should pair yourself. I really think it comes down to starting with the right practitioner, whether you do a just-just or you can do a general like, you know, kind of test and test your levels and then they can put you on a protocol. Okay, what do you have to do to remove toxins from your body?
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
I'm a big fan of Body Bio PC, which we spoke about earlier. And so a lot of us, like you said, in your personal journey are walking around like a toxic soup and don't even realize it. We're like, we're doing all these biohacks and these gadgets. Why is it not working? Well, it's just because of our environment is so toxic. You have chemtrails in the sky. Your water is polluted.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
You know, there's so much going on. Our soil doesn't have minerals in it anymore.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
And so it's like start steady and slow, clean out your body, figure out your inflammation levels, and then go on the fertility journey. Don't fire that gun before you're even ready because you're only going to end up with a lot, a lot of disappointment. And because every month when you're doing these rounds of IVF, you're like, oh, I might be getting an embryo out of this one.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
But if you don't have strong eggs, how are you going to create strong embryos?
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
And 50% of infertility is caused by men. Wow. And they don't talk about that enough either because men are 50% of the problem and a lot of clinics are not testing men. So the thing should be you go in for a fertility checkup, the husband and the wife both have to be tested at the same time. Wow. So then you can start your journey together the way kind of we did.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
I think losing a lot of like best for body fat because men also, listen, men have a 24 hour hormone cycle, women have like a full month, right? So getting your body kind of really not inflamed, gaining more muscle mass, the more muscle mass you have, the more testosterone you'll have, right? Yeah. Eating more- And the better you look. Yeah, the better you look, but also the better you feel.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
But a lot of men are also really low on testosterone and their bodies are not firing correctly. Well, they're not lifting enough weights. They're not eating enough red meat. And this whole fear around red meat, guys, I just want to correct this. High quality red meat is actually incredible for you. It's all about sourcing.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
And people have actually done research and studies to show if it's pasture raised, pasture finished, and you know the farm it's coming from, it actually reduces inflammation in the body, which is completely opposite of what we were taught.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
And then going on the right supplements. So vitamin D is really, really important also to sperm health, which is a big thing. I put my husband on NMN as well. You did? Yeah, we were both on it. We take a brand called Wonderfeel, and it's actually one of Mark Hyman's favorite NMN companies, and I'll tell you why. Dosage matters no matter what product you're taking. The dose has to be right.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
These guys are doing 900 milligrams of NMN, which is incredible. It's the highest form on the market. It's actually one of the cleanest. And they have other antioxidants mixed in their formula. It's called Wonderfield Younger. And what I love about it is you're getting also your daily dose of vitamin D. Less is more. Wow. So I got him on all this protocol. We cleaned out his inflammation levels.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
We fixed his gut health. His gut health was not as bad as mine. And I'm surprised because I feel like I live a lot cleaner in some ways. And I'm doing so much more. But his levels got adjusted. We put him on this really tight, rigorous diet protocol, really increased his red meat intake. You'd be surprised by that. We introduced raw dairy, raw butter into our house.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
And it really helped clean up our gut overall and got his levels to be better.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka

So thank you for taking that up really nicely for me. So I have a background. I've been working in luxury fashion lifestyle for almost 20 plus years. I lived in London, Dubai, and now the US. I've been here for about almost 12 years now. And so I knew how to build luxury brands. I knew how to use that voice. I knew how to get you to the next level. How do you reach your consumer?

So one of the things is removing toxins. The second is hyperbaric chamber. That's one of the things my fertility doctor literally said that when you're trying and it's your time for conception and whether you do IVF or not, you need to do every other day, hyperbaric chamber for 90 minutes. What does that do? It fuels your mitochondria by flooding it with oxygen and And gets you firing.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
And as we age, obviously, ATP production comes down, ATP production comes down, less mitochondrial energy to go around. So it's the right supplementation and then doing things like getting in the right foods, getting in right oxygen supply, really making sure your body is a vessel, it's cleaned up.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
Absolutely.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
How do you market to them? And all my life, I was actually a really sickly child. Now you'd look at me and be like, you had health issues. I had a lot of health issues, actually a lot of ovarian problems. And it was only six years ago that I met a functional medicine doctor and he got me into peptides. And I started trying to heal my body and piecing all this together.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
That's amazing. One of the other things they didn't talk about is eating enough healthy fats. And I want to talk about that. So we were told in the 70s and 80s, fat is bad for you, fat is bad for you. It is the devil. It's actually the opposite. If you're trying to conceive, whether you're a man or a woman, you need to be taking in enough healthy fats.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
So omega-3, omega-6 ratio is extremely important. Taking it other ways through polyphenols, avocado, whatever you may do. But you need to have enough fats. If you eat high quality protein and enough fats, it's actually not only will you look and feel better, but it's great for your fertility overall.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
Yeah, the woman who found it.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
BodyBio is a company I'm passionate. They're one of my clients as well. Everybody's getting love from you today. They're loving it. So BodyBio was started about 30 years ago by a guy called Ed Kane. And Ed Kane was married to this woman called Patricia Kane. And when they started the company, they came up with this whole thing about PC and how PC is essentially what phosphatidylcholine is.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
So you have your cell and you have your cell membrane around it. And the gushy part of the cell membrane should be nice and gooey and it should be able to be bouncy, right? Mm-hmm. with the levels of toxins, seed oils, the water we're drinking, all of that stuff, it's eroding our cell membrane. So when our cell membrane is not healthy, pollutants can get in, we're tired, we're exhausted.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
I made it my mission on the podcast to interview the best doctors on the east and west coast. I realized that they're applying the lens of longevity to fertility and is getting their patients better results.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
So no matter what supplements, what you put into it, if your cells can't hold it in and stay healthy, then that's it, right? It's all about cellular health. That's where really it starts.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
And so they came up with this thing called the PK protocol, which is actually like lipid replacement therapy. It's all about lipid therapy. And what it does is there are these really intense IVs that go into you and they can be, it's a phosphatidylcholine, sodium butyrate, other things that I'm extended depending on the need.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
Yeah, we spoke about it. And it completely deep cleans your insides. It actually, sometimes it can be really uncomfortable. I don't know if you've had one of those reactions like Eric's reaction. Not yet. I have. And it was super deeply uncomfortable, but it's incredible for resetting your mitochondrial health, getting your cells, you know, obviously firing.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
And then also things like mold or autoimmune disease. People who have chronic Lyme, they have put these people on these protocol or autism and ADHD and completely reversed the signs and symptoms. Wow.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
Autism and ADHD, especially with children, because a lot of times they have a methylation problem and other things going on. So when you get in there and you get into cellular health, it cleans out those levels. And people who are nonverbal, literally kids will start being verbal again. Wow. There are moms who put their kids on PC, the liquid PC.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
And let's say these are real case studies from the company. and people have come to them and say, hey, my kid is non-verbal, I don't know what to do. They're like, put a little bit of PC even on their wrist if they don't want to drink it. Put it on their PC and they've seen a complete reverse in their autism symptoms.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
While I went down that whole peptide rabbit hole, a few years into it, the pandemic hit. And my mom, who was already immune compromised and who was not leaving the house, I don't know why her GP, as they called him, general practitioner in the UK, told her to get vaccinated and boosted.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
Keto and paleo.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
Cleaner you eat, less complicated, body can break down the food, it can process it and get it out. So people who tend to be more paleo and keto will see that they're less inflamed, less bloated, and they actually have regular bowel movements as well. When you're working with mold and parasites, you need to have regular bowel movements to cycle everything out.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
Sauna is incredible. I definitely recommend lymphatic drainage. And big thing, guys, when you're doing any parasite work, you need to do a lot of like coffee enemas and colonics. They're really, really big. And so I, for example, do this pharmaceutical grade with my doctor.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
parasite cleanse she gives you four different pharmaceutical drugs over a course of a week you take them and you pair it with the colonics and the coffee enemas and you literally see what is this like an ivermectin fenbendazole yeah some all of that difference yeah it's mixed in depending on what you need and she tests you for that and then you pair it and then you're not obviously supposed to eat certain things and they allow you to obviously clean high quality meat is a big part of it
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
Don't eat processed food. Do not have sugar because sugar will completely get the parasites actually firing. You'll feel even worse. You'll have the Herx reaction. So that's the best way to avoid it.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
Yeah, candida is a big one.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
Energetically, if you just think about the thought of starting a family and bringing a child into this world, you have to be on the same page. And this is such a connective process because from day one, you're like, we're one team. We're going to birth a human together.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
We're going to birth a human. We're going to bring a life into this world. So are our intentions matched? Are we going to be able to be on the same page? Are we going to be, yes, everybody will have, get frustrations and stuff, but are we able to do something for the better of a soul that we're going to bring into the world versus putting ourselves first?
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
So I think from an energetic perspective, I'm extremely spiritual and believe deeply in God and faith. You're sending the right signal to that soul that we're ready to receive you and we're gonna do the best job that we can.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
Within 90 days of her getting the booster, she got turbo cancer, which is like a cancer that spreads really rapidly through your body. Before you know it, that's it. Within 90 days of receiving that booster, she passed away. Wow. And my agency, we had been around for almost five years at this point. I worked at really big companies prior to that, being their VP or director at other agencies.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
And I'll add onto that, if you just look at conception as a whole, right? Couples share each other's microbiome. So if you're not both working on yourselves, right? You're having this exchange going forward, you share your microbiome with your partner that you live with.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
When you also conceive a child, you inherit the mitochondria from the mother, but you also inherit so much stuff from the father. So it's very important for both people to be in the same place. So you're setting your child up for success. It's really thinking about the life that you're about to bring into the world and setting them up for success in every way, shape possible.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
I was one of them almost. I was going into menopause. I was perimenopause.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
It's three things, chronic inflammation... number one, first and foremost, environmental toxin overload in your body, the way that you can't clean it out. So your cells are not getting what it needs to support to do the cleanup process and unregulated insulin levels. Three things that are causing you and forcing you to go into menopause sooner.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
So that's why I'm so pushy to say, guys, if you're going to start a fertility journey, you need to look at your body and how are you actually aging and look at all the longevity markers because they will tell you the longevity markers are gonna tell you your overall health picture and it will tell you the picture of health for your fertility.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
And I called my managing director, who still works with me, and said, Lauren, I love you. And I know we've been doing this for a long time. We're really hyper-focused on luxury. But I think there's such a disconnect happening with humanity on there being lied to. And I really want to build brands, practitioners, clinics, experts in this space that I'm passionate about.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
And at the end of the day, you have to remember that what you put into this journey is a byproduct of what you're going to get, right? So the cleaner you are, the healthier pregnancy is going to be, the healthier the embryos you're going to create, the healthier your child will be, right?
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
There's so much that goes into and why you look at what we said earlier about cultures in the East that take a year to prep because they're really intentionally going into this process.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
And a child will have less health issues later the healthier their parents are.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
The charge.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
So they were the guys who originally started the research around PRP and umbilical cord stem cells for the ovaries. And they built these cohorts of women. They gave them, so they had women who were at menopausal and they did the PRP and the stem cells for the ovaries and saw these women come out of menopause and stay that way.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
Yes, into the ovaries. No, no, no, no, no. They go in through your vagina essentially with an ultrasound machine. And not everybody, by the way, if you're listening to this and somebody's promising you PRP, the way you inject on the ovary is very important. You need to know the right sites to do. You need to know just the length of the needle even really matters.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
So what they do is they kind of give you light sedation if you want, if you're a little queasy. And they go in through your vagina. They go in with an ultrasound machine, and they look at it, and then they basically go in and inject both your ovaries.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
Ovaries, yeah. They inject your ovaries. And what they've seen is within 90 days, it takes about 90 days to take effect, women who were doing PRP for the ovaries and then going around for a round of IVF were seeing better results. They're creating more follicles. They were having more embryos being created for men. Healthier embryos were coming out.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
So there's that research when it comes, and they were having higher live birth rates. The reverse of it was when women had gone into menopause, it was taking them out of early menopause and raising their ovarian reserve as well.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
So there's a lot of good things that are coming out of it. Same thing with the umbilical cord stem cells that they do now. They are FDA approved in America, but they're not letting you do that over here. Other countries, like I went to the Bahamas to do mine with a doctor that's based in the U.S.,
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
And he is basically, you go to him, you have low ovarian reserve or you've gone into menopause earlier, but you want to go through a fertility journey. He tells you, do this with me and you might not even need IVF because the guy is so committed to helping women.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
Out of menopause.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
Yes.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
Conceive. One of these two doctors that I'm kind of seeing, one of their oldest patients to have a live birth was 47 years old. Where she, you know, 47, they're like, what do you mean? She went into these treatments, came out of it, conceived and gave birth naturally and had a really healthy pregnancy at 47 and gave birth actually at 48. So she conceived at 47, gave birth at 48. Yeah.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
And today, we were obviously 95% of our portfolio used to be luxury. We still have a portion of that, but now 90% of our portfolio is health and wellness. That's amazing. You know a lot about clients.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
You can do that here.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
Yes.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
No, they're actually going onto your ovaries. So again, they're sedating you. You're going under for 10, 15 minutes. And again, they're doing an ultrasound machine. Basically they're going in and they're injecting your actual ovaries. So they're giving your actual ovaries the stem cells. Yes, you can put it in an IV, but it's going to go all over your body. This is very intentional to do it for...
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
creating more follicles, creating a higher egg count and taking you out of menopause and giving you a better chance at fertility.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
Huge award, yeah. Yeah, Inc. Magazine's Power Players of 2024. We're an all-female company, by the way. Really? Yeah.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
all female, we're 15 going on 20 employees this year and we're opening up offices in the Middle East, which we spoke about and very passionate about that entire region. And it's been an interesting journey and we're really, I would say our clients are some of like the best voices in the space.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
That's what I'm doing, yeah.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
Yeah, that's what PK protocol is essentially, right?
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
And then you're shocked at the levels when you test.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
But it goes back to the longevity conversation, right? So lipid replacement therapy, if your cells are not functioning correctly, nothing really in your body can function well. So lipid replacement therapy literally takes your cell wall, re-fortifies it, pulls out any toxins, any mold, any glyphosate levels, anything sitting in there, cleans it up and re-fortifies it.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
The stronger your cell wall is, the less toxins can break through it. The healthier you're gonna feel, the better you're gonna run. Your mitochondria will be better. You will not have brain fog. You'll have more energy. You will have better quality sleep. And lipids, essentially, you need a certain amount of lipids if you're going to carry a child and conceive.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
So lipid replacement therapy, also preconception, is incredible for baby's brain development and embryo development.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
Now she's worried about having the baby.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
And we work with like Dr. Will Cole, Jess Pietros, who you interviewed, Body Bio is a company that I spoke to you about. We've worked previously with Sweetgreen. So we really think do a really good job at curating. We're not just looking for mass brands. We're not just looking at you because you have money.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
So I'm not fully done with my protocol yet. So prior to me starting, before I started, I got all my testing done pretty much like you have. I used Vibrant Labs and I used a company called Mosaic. It's another really big testing company.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
Yeah, urine and blood. They do both. Okay. They mix it. And prior to that, I did this thing out of Europe called the IGL test, which now that lab has shut down some mosaic. It's kind of stepped in.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
They check for every single heavy metal, pesticide, herbicide in your body, make a full chart of everything. And there's really interesting from when I started the PK protocol, started the PCIVs, started the microbiome IVs, did a round of IBU.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
And at the time, like this is why I've looked at my fertility through a lens of longevity, right? My body wasn't firing correctly. It was not producing hormones correctly. I was starting to have hot flashes. I'm like, things are falling apart. Like this house is falling apart before this is even getting going. And I was like, wait, let me fix this. So removing the toxins, getting it to that place.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
My markers just came back. I am so clean. There were only two tests that came back. It was a little bit of mold exposure that I'd have to figure out where it's coming from now. And I think it was one more marker that was off. So I have the actual science. I have the two tests to compare next to each other. And so you do that, right? You clean out your body.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
You're removing levels of inflammation in your body. My mitochondria started firing better. I still have insulin sensitivity, but it's improved drastically. I'm not feeling chronically inflamed. Gary, I shrunk. I'm already a little girl. Like I'm not never being baked, but I was carrying so much inflammation. I literally lost water. I was poofy.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
And I didn't realize, but my face shrunk, my body shrunk, and I was like, wow, this stuff actually works. My gut is firing correctly. I'm reducing the inflammation. My body feels better. It's being supported through the methylation process, drainage. Everything is working again. Then I went on the hormone replacement therapy. Then I did the stem cells and the PRP for the ovaries.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
It's been a sequence of things, you know?
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
And you see it. Just your body alone will shrink with inflammation. You can just tell. Yeah.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
No, because if you don't feel good, you can't think straight. If you can't think straight, you don't feel good. How are you planning to carry a pregnancy? Women should be at their best and healthiest in their body and their mind when they conceive. Is that ideal? Yes, that's ideal because then you can really set up the tone and intention with which you're going to carry a baby.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
We want to work with the best to amplify their voices and build them into the next brand, the global voice of the... You know, it's interesting.

The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
Thank you for giving me a platform to talk about my fertility journey. And I just want to help as many women as possible because like we discussed, the fertility industry is only booming, but they're missing so many key things which makes a woman have the best possible outcome, more birth rates, and just live a happier, healthier life.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka

Yeah, don't ask.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
You know, my team has yet to change it. They've written to Meta. They better make this happen. They're working on it. We're trying to change the name because somebody has Iman Hassan on Instagram.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
And they're not responding to me.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
Right? Just FYI. Somebody from the Middle East has it. Our podcast is called Biohack It, which I just did a swap for you and I'm excited to release the episode. And our agency is called IHC Agency.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
That's exactly what we do. So when you apply to us, we really look into your ingredients. I'll give you a little bit of a personal story. Yeah. We had a brand. My husband actually got contacted. He's like, I'm going to invest in the supplement company. Can you please take them on? And I was like, he's like, the founder is great. The branding is great. The marketing seems really good.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
Can you take them on as a client? Give the guy a bit of a discount as a startup. But I think he'll do well. I said, okay, because my husband was investing in the company. Gary, we got the products that came to our house. And I said, this brand has ingredients that shreds your gut. It's typically one of those brands that the guy said, I want to start a longevity company. Went to a manufacturer.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
Insulin completely destroys your actual egg. If you have an unregulated nervous system and your body's in chronic fight or flight, how are you going to get pregnant?
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
Manufacturer was like, I'll put this, this, this in, including natural flavors, which we know are not good for you. Right. And I called the founder and said, I can't. And they're paying client. I said, I can't work with you guys till you change your formulation. She said, can't change the formulation till I sell out of the units.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
I said, then you need to come back at a different time because I cannot put my name and get you in front of my community because I have so many friends in this space and endorse this brand because me endorsing it means, okay, I've signed off on.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
And go in that way.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
Right.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
So I'm a woman going through, you know, kind of I decided, me and my husband decided last year, can we start trying for kids? We're in our 40s. Like I'm 42 this year.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
You can start with a basic female hormone panel and work with the right practitioner who can read that and say...
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
And yeah.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
Well, thanks to Body Bio PC. Yeah.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
It's amazing. So I'm a geek. I'm a nerd. You know, I'm not a doctor, but I'm really curious and interested in everything. So went to get all my fertility testing done and I'm pretty healthy and all this stuff. Turns out my levels were terrible.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
AMH and FSH. The two levels with which they measure fertility is. So AMH means how much ovarian reserve do you have left? And FSH is a hormone that kind of tells your body how to produce eggs every single month, right? So those are the two main key markers of fertility they test you for, right? Okay.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
I go in to get this test done, and the higher your AMH is, the lower your ovarian reserve, the lower your FSH is, the better it is for you, right? So basically, my two numbers were basically in the gutter. And I start looking into fertility. I meet with a bunch of fertility doctors and stuff, and they're like, we'll just do a round of IVF. We'll just do a round of IVF.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
And I'm like, something's not making sense to me. So I made it my mission on the podcast to interview the best doctors on the East and West Coast. I interviewed like nine fertility experts. And I just went on this tour being like, I'm going to meet you. I'm going to learn. I'm going to learn. I'm going to learn.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
Finally, through two incredible doctors that I met, I realized that they're applying the lens of longevity to fertility and is getting their patients better results. So they're not telling you straight go into and go get your IVF done. They're like, I'm putting you in rapamycin, which has recently started in a Columbia to lowers women's fertility.

It can decrease like ovarian aging by 20%, which gives you five extra years on your fertility.

Five extra years. Wow. Rapamycin, it was studied in Colombia. They did a cohort with these women. They put them on rapamycin, rapamycin on low dosage, 2.5 milligrams once a week, not overdoing it. And that is the research that they got back. Then there's things like PRP for the ovaries. It's experimentative, but also the field of IVF has only been around for 45 years.

They're doing umbilical cord stem cells. Stem cells is a huge thing. They don't do in the US yet, but the doctor I see is based in the US, but he has a clinic in the Bahamas. So I go, I'm a guinea pig. I was like, I'm going to try this stuff on myself.

First, I started with the whole thing with a PK protocol, lipid replacement therapy, started cleaning out my system, started getting rid of the toxins because, and we'll get into the home mitochondria piece of it. But then I go into doing the PRP and the stem cells for the ovaries. And today I'm ovulating naturally. My range is completely fixed.

My AMH got into, like I got out of menopausal range into a normal range. My FSH completely like got into a normal range as well. I think it's like a 3.2 now, which is amazing. And so I was like, okay, I'm gonna try this stuff on myself. Then all the supplements, they technically, you should be taking for fertility. NMN, and I'll get into why it's better than NAD.

We talked about rapamycin, magnesium, vitamin D. All of this stuff is actually geared towards longevity.

And so we'll talk about the mitochondria. There are 100,000 to 500,000 mitochondrial, essentially, cells in your eggs.

167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
And you can look this up. And in muscle tissue, it's 1,000 to 5,000. So huge. And why is it so high in your eggs? Because you're creating an embryo.
The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
167. Iman Hasan: How to Boost Fertility with Cellular Health Hacks
But it's all fueled by your mitochondria, right? So everything comes down to that. So most people are walking around chronically inflamed. Mitochondrial health is not good, which is why I did the PK protocol to fix that. That's what I'm doing now too. Yeah. And started building my mitochondrial health again. So if your gut health is not good, you will have infertility issues, 100%.

Or you will be going through these multiple rounds of IVF. Now, IVF alone is a $43 billion industry as of today.

By 2034, it is going to be a $100 billion industry.

But what are they not doing? Most doctors are not looking at it. You go in, it's like a factory. You come in, do a round, do a round, and a round. One round of IVF can be anywhere from $15,000 to $35,000. Wow. So wouldn't it make more sense?

So essentially a cycle of IVF. So every month you get to do a cycle based on your hormone levels, based on what they... When you go in for a scan, how many follicles do they see? And what they do is they blast you with these drugs to get your body to produce more follicles so they can extract the follicles, which become the eggs. And the eggs then get fertilized and they create an embryo.

And then they put it... Whether you're carrying or a surrogate is carrying, they figure that out and they kind of put it back in. Now that whole... All these steps are so out of the body to begin with. It's not normal. That's not a normal way to have a kid, right? So it's putting additional stress on your body. So when you're going through a round of IVF, right?

If your baseline is not fixed, all you're trying to do is take low quality eggs.

Shoot yourself with a bunch of drugs. And a lot of times for women in their 40s, our bodies will shut down and say, we're done. So to reverse engineer, the problem is get your body really clean, reduce inflammation. Inflammation is a really big part of infertility as well.

and really get your gut health fixed, set yourself up for success. And I personally have decided I'm not even doing IVF. We're only doing, trying naturally now. Because I was able to do the stem cells and all this stuff and the biohacking and also hyperbaric chambers is incredible.

So this is a route I've decided to take. And I'm like a walking science experiment. Yeah.
