Mindsip insights from this episode:
Check air quality before outdoor exercise
Before exercising outside, you should check the Air Quality Index (AQI) and particulate matter (PM 2.5) to be aware of contaminants in the air.
Moderate spinach intake for optimal health
While spinach is a great food, you should be mindful not to have too much of it.
Utilize laughter as a powerful longevity therapy
Laughter is considered one of the best longevity therapies available.
Test tap water regularly for contaminants
You should regularly measure your tap water for contaminants like microplastics and drugs, and consider a reverse osmosis system for filtration.
Prioritize mask use for safe oxygen delivery in hyperbaric chambers
A hyperbaric chamber filled with 100% oxygen can cause oxidative damage and cataracts; it is safer to use a mask for oxygen delivery.
Prioritize REM sleep over biohacking shortcuts
Cutting sleep short for biohacking like a hyperbaric chamber is a bad trade-off, as you lose crucial REM sleep that occurs late in the sleep cycle.
Avoid fast food to protect your skin from aging
Eating fast food creates Advanced Glycation End-products (AGEs), which destroy you from the inside and will eventually show on your skin.
Avoid honey on hot food to preserve enzymes and lower glycemic index
Putting honey on hot food can negatively alter its enzymes and increase your glycemic index, so it's best avoided.
