That is reasonable.

2019-02-11 16:41:13 UTC  

Caffeine is a central nervous system stimulant of the methylxanthine class. It is the world's most widely consumed psychoactive drug.

2019-02-11 16:41:33 UTC  

Stimulants can certainly cause anxiety in a brain that does not need it.

2019-02-11 16:42:45 UTC  

It also increases blood pressure and can inhibit calcium absorption

2019-02-11 16:44:42 UTC  

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.

2019-02-11 16:53:36 UTC  

That's almost 40 trillion bacteria that inhabit our bodies.

2019-02-11 16:54:05 UTC  

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.

2019-02-11 16:57:01 UTC  

Do you know what the number one addiction is for modern 1st world humans?

2019-02-11 16:57:14 UTC  

Sugar

2019-02-11 16:57:28 UTC  

😁

2019-02-11 16:58:00 UTC  

Am I right @AUDiTZ3R0

2019-02-11 16:58:23 UTC  

Absolutely 😄

2019-02-11 16:58:46 UTC  

We have a sugar conspiracy too. 😂

2019-02-11 16:59:11 UTC  

The serious biohacker's first step is to free themselves of this addiction first.

2019-02-11 17:00:01 UTC  

Unfortunately the medical standard is not to cure, but to treat the symptoms. 😦

2019-02-11 17:00:24 UTC  

There is no "patch"

2019-02-11 17:00:24 UTC  

I am trying to rid myself of any sugar. It’s very hard since our bodies create it naturally.

2019-02-11 17:01:08 UTC  

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.

2019-02-11 17:01:30 UTC  

And a physical and psychological dependency forms

2019-02-11 17:01:34 UTC  

That would be insulin resistance.

2019-02-11 17:01:40 UTC  

Correct

2019-02-11 17:01:45 UTC  

Insulin 😃

2019-02-11 17:02:56 UTC  

I know all about that. I suffer from insulinemia. I can get very hypoglycaemic.

2019-02-11 17:04:16 UTC  

Biohacking is a process where people are trying to rewire and repair and not just treat the symptoms.

2019-02-11 17:04:50 UTC  

Then I guess I am a self-bio hacker. 😂

2019-02-11 17:05:07 UTC  

It sounds like it.

2019-02-11 17:05:22 UTC  

Are we allowed to share web links here?

2019-02-11 17:05:57 UTC  

Absolutely. But Ibthink you need student role. Gimme a second. 😃

2019-02-11 17:06:24 UTC  

This is a good, easy overview

2019-02-11 17:06:35 UTC  

Not my blog either 😛

2019-02-11 17:06:41 UTC  

Lol

2019-02-11 17:07:32 UTC  

Many people are very suspicious of every link, as if everything is an advertisement.

2019-02-11 17:08:24 UTC  

We have many raiders on discord. We try to be careful.

2019-02-11 17:09:02 UTC  

I'm not suggesting that being suspicious is bad, just reassuring you that I don't profit off the link 😛

2019-02-11 17:09:54 UTC  

I am also very fond of futurology and transhumanism 😃

2019-02-11 17:09:54 UTC  

I am following the keto diet. Does your post mention about that.

2019-02-11 17:10:34 UTC  

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.
