Hi, I’m Davinia Taylor and this is my new podcast ‘Hack Your Health’, a show that will educate and empower you to lead a healthier and happier life.
14 years ago I couldn't stop drinking wine, the doctors put me on antidepressants, I couldn’t control my weight, I kept yo-yo dieting and eating fast food, bread, pasta, ANYTHING to give me comfort. Today, at 45 I’m running marathons and in the best shape of my life. So what changed?
One simple fact, everything i thought i knew about health was wrong and if I was mis-informed, then I bet most of you are too.
Join me as I talk to some of the worlds biggest experts in health and bio-hacking including; Tim Spector, Gary Brecka, Dr Barbara Sturm, Dr Cate Shanahan, Dave Asprey, Dr Tamsin Lewis, Pippa Campbell, Dr Ken Berry and the Glucose Goddess.
Now…let’s go hack your health.

Dave Asprey is a pioneer of the biohacking movement, elevating human performance through scientific research combined with ancient healing traditions. He has educated and changed millions of peoples lives, through his podcast- ‘The Human Upgrade’ and his 4 New York Times Bestselling Science books. In this episode we discuss his new book “Smarter Not Harder: A Guide to Reclaiming and Optimising Your Health” (an absolute must read!)
He exposes the surprising secrets of our body’s operating system, or its “MeatOS, a system that is naturally designed to be lazy. Dave tells us how to hack the MeatOS and make it do what we want it to do, turning it from obstacle, to ally. The key to achieving optimum wellness, he reveals, isn’t about doing more, it’s about doing less—exercising and eating smarter, not harder, and making the body’s built in laziness work for you.
