Life is mint for joy i.e. life is for living. But some people are trying to live longer by bringing desired changes in natural and physical conditions. For them, ‘biohacking’ has become a word which is associated with methods of improving the body’s working capacity and increasing lifespan. That’s why now people of the world are becoming fascinated by it. The craze for biohacking is also increasing in India. Experts say that interest in this latest knowledge and research has increased among students associated with biosciences and health research in universities. People are inquiring about this.
Let us tell you that two words named ‘Bio’ and ‘Hacking’ affect the biological processes related to health. Although these are non-traditional and have not yet been medically approved. Still, there is some scientific evidence behind them, which is not enough to come into clinical practice. However, its personal application is increasing, which is not free from danger. Media reports are also gossiping that this new trend of ‘defying death’ is increasing in India. The craze of biohacking here is so much that the number of its followers is increasing every day. Now, along with dieting, it is also being linked with natural healing measures and secrets related to yoga and meditation.
You must be aware that just 47 years old American biohacker and entrepreneur Brian Johnson is bent upon ‘defeating death’ these days. Recently he also came to India. Here too he launched his ‘Age-Reversing Blueprint Protocol’, in which life expectancy can be increased with the help of many measures like supplements, tests, experiments, special diet plan and LED light exposure. -Claims have been made to increase. According to an English daily, a large group of people have formed in India too, who are taking all kinds of measures to improve their body and mind. These include everything from ice baths in extreme cold to red light therapy and use of many supplements. Not only this, some people include hyperbaric oxygen therapy in their routine. At the same time, some people are trying to increase their lifespan by using devices that generate electromagnetic waves.
So today through this article I am trying to tell you what happens in biohacking? Experts say that the growing biohacker community in India may not have a big budget like Johnson, but they are trying their own methods to improve health, which is not free from danger, because it is possible through modern medical methods. Not certified. No research reports related to this have come yet. However, some biohacks are very easy, like meditation, fasting, taking supplements, sitting in the sun and exercising. But many types of applications are also being done in this field. For example, Johnson swapped plasma and blood with his son. At the same time, donor fat injection was also done in the face, which was not successful.
The question is how did the practice of biohacking develop and become prevalent in India? Because biohacking has developed due to unhappiness with the results of modern medicines i.e. side effects. It is understood that the increasing interest in living a long life or healthy life is attracting people towards biohacking. It is said that Rakesh Somani, co-founder of Decode Edge in India, started biohacking ten years ago to improve his performance. At the same time, people are using different types of applications and also sharing their experiences on social media.
