That is reasonable.
Caffeine is a central nervous system stimulant of the methylxanthine class. It is the world's most widely consumed psychoactive drug.
Stimulants can certainly cause anxiety in a brain that does not need it.
It also increases blood pressure and can inhibit calcium absorption
For most people, it is not harmful to consume up to 400mg of caffeine a day. If you do eat or drink too much caffeine, it can cause health problems, such as:
▶ Restlessness and shakiness
▶ Insomnia
▶ Headaches
▶ Dizziness
▶ Rapid or abnormal heart rhythm
▶ Dehydration
▶ Anxiety
▶ Dependency, so you need to take more of it to get the same results
But a stack of nootropics doesn't work the same for everyone because we each have very distinct microbiomes.
That's almost 40 trillion bacteria that inhabit our bodies.
The makeup of our microbiome dictates the effectiveness of various supplements.
So a biohacker essentially wants to break free of the addictions we have had imposed upon us through our culture and then take action to enhance our minds and bodies to be more efficient, stronger and healthy.
Do you know what the number one addiction is for modern 1st world humans?
Sugar
😁
Am I right @AUDiTZ3R0
Absolutely 😄
We have a sugar conspiracy too. 😂
The serious biohacker's first step is to free themselves of this addiction first.
Unfortunately the medical standard is not to cure, but to treat the symptoms. 😦
There is no "patch"
I am trying to rid myself of any sugar. It’s very hard since our bodies create it naturally.
Some sugar is ok. Carbs are the fuel of the body. But just like any other substance, intolerance can build up when we take too much.
That would be insulin resistance.
Correct
Insulin 😃
I know all about that. I suffer from insulinemia. I can get very hypoglycaemic.
Biohacking is a process where people are trying to rewire and repair and not just treat the symptoms.
Then I guess I am a self-bio hacker. 😂
It sounds like it.
Are we allowed to share web links here?
Absolutely. But Ibthink you need student role. Gimme a second. 😃
This is a good, easy overview
Not my blog either 😛
Lol
Many people are very suspicious of every link, as if everything is an advertisement.
We have many raiders on discord. We try to be careful.
I'm not suggesting that being suspicious is bad, just reassuring you that I don't profit off the link 😛
I am also very fond of futurology and transhumanism 😃
I am following the keto diet. Does your post mention about that.
That is an overview of the major concepts of biohacking. Diets are part of them but that article does not go into that degree of detail.
