In today’s episode we’re looking at biohacking. Biohacking is defined as, ‘Attempts to improve the condition of your body and mind using technology, drugs or other chemical substances such as hormones’ - such techniques can include cold water swimming, meditation and a variety of supplements. With biohacking growing in popularity, we’re asking the question – is it essentially diet culture repackaged for men? We’ll also examine the origins of biohacking, the evidence behind various biohacking techniques and discuss advice for a dietitian whose clients are interested in this area. To explore this topic, we're delighted to be joined by Associate Registered Nutritionist Joshua Clamp who specialises in men’s health and behaviour change.Since completing his BSc in Medical Physiology and MSc in Human Nutrition, Joshua has been working with Maximus UK (formerly BeeZee Bodies) as a Senior Nutritionist to lead their online men's weight management programme, as well as numerous adult and family weight management programmes. Joshua also runs a highly successful nutrition & performance consultancy, Sustainable Health, which collaborates with organisations, charities, and individuals to support evidence-based behaviour change.Show Notes:Joshua’s website: https://www.sustainable-health.co.ukJoshua’s Instagram: @sustainablehealthguyJoshua’s X: @clamp_joshResource mentioned in the episode: www.examine.com (large database of nutrition and supplement research)
