VO2 Max and Mitochondria Mastery: Biohacking with the NanoVi

Dave Asprey

Oct 11, 2024

Episode description

Today, we’re diving deep into biohacking your body’s performance—starting with your VO2 max and mitochondria.

We’re sitting down with cellular optimization expert, Rowena Gates, to dive into how the NanoVi device is disrupting the world of biohacking, recovery, and training.

First up, we’re breaking down VO2 max—the secret sauce to longevity. Forget endless hours of cardio. Learn how to hack your VO2 max efficiently and add years to your life, without grinding it out in the gym.

Then, we tackle the hidden world of reactive oxygen species (ROS). These little molecules can be both your friend and foe—boosting energy or fast-tracking aging. We’ll show you how to control them, so you can keep your energy levels high and your body youthful.

Finally, we explore the cutting-edge science of protein folding and exclusion zone water. Sound complicated? Don’t worry, we’ll break it down and show how NanoVi tech supercharges your mitochondria, giving you faster recovery and more endurance, all with minimal effort.

Breathe with NanoVi to enhance comfort during NAD+ IV drips

Breathing from a NanoVi device during an NAD+ IV drip can make the notoriously uncomfortable process more comfortable and faster by improving utilization.

Limit antioxidant intake to enhance exercise benefits

If you take excessive antioxidants, you turn off your ability to improve from exercise because your body needs some free radicals for cell signaling.

Understand ordered water for optimal cellular function

The key to cellular function is 'exclusion zone' or 'ordered water,' which forms on proteins and provides the energy for them to fold correctly.

Enhance VO2 max by 7.8% in one session with NanoVi device

Using the NanoVi device for a single session was shown in a study to improve VO2 Max by 7.8%, a key marker for longevity.

Address mitochondrial insufficiency before age 40 to combat aging

An estimated 48% of people under the age of 40 have early-onset mitochondrial insufficiency, which is a foundational aspect of aging.

Optimize mitochondrial function to reduce stress on your nervous system

Mitochondria are the frontline sensors of reality, and if they are running at half power, they will be stressed, which in turn stresses your central nervous system.
