From Burnout to Biohacking: How Andy Mant Built Bon Charge into a Global Wellness Brand
What if the secret to better sleep, sharper focus, and a healthier life isn't another supplement—but better light?
In this episode of The House Story, we sit down with Andy Mant, the founder and CEO of Bon Charge, a global wellness tech brand pioneering blue light blocking glasses, red light therapy, grounding tech, and more. From battling chronic health issues in his 20s to building a multi-million dollar brand now at the forefront of biohacking innovation, Andy shares the raw journey behind it all.
Discover how Andy went from feeling constantly unwell—kidney stones, fatigue, constant injuries—to hacking his own biology using ancestral principles with a modern twist. His journey into biohacking began with the ketogenic diet, but exploded when he discovered how artificial light was wrecking his sleep and energy levels. That sparked the idea for Bon Charge—and what started with a single pair of ugly Amazon goggles has grown into a wellness empire.
