What is biohacking?

Pharmaceutical companies have many programs to recruit volunteers to test the medicinal properties of new drugs. Such research not only pays for stipulated amounts, but also gives people with hopeless illnesses the opportunity to participate in an experiment that could result in a cure for the disease.

A new trend in this area, aimed at voluntary testing of the reactions of one's own body to pharmaceuticals, is called "biohacking". Biohacking, in its practical sense, means "hacking" the body.

Biohacking involves testing various biostimulants - drugs that affect various body systems that change the course of metabolic processes. As the developers of startups for the production of biostimulants hope, the goal of biohacking is the prospects for slowing down aging and increasing the productivity of various organs.

Biohacking participants are dreamers to change and improve their intelligence, strengthen the flow of thought processes, increase the body's performance, endurance and resistance to various kinds of stress (intellectual and physical stress).

How is biohacking carried out? A person puts various sensors on the body that monitor the slightest changes in blood biochemistry, the work of the heart, the work of the brain, and so on. With the help of various devices, the collected data is analyzed and systematized. A person turns into a minilab for studying the body's own reactions to the proposed drugs. But within the framework of biohacking, not only stimulants are tested, they also study the processes that occur during periods of starvation or during periods of reduced sleep time.

Biohacking has few adherents, since the exhaustion of the body by working with the condition of longevity is not a very tempting idea. The best solution for survival in conditions of many hours of stress is considered to be the search for methods to preserve the vitality of the organism by reducing the load on it and the transition to the development of life-saving technologies.
