BIOHACKING and LONGEVITY EXPERT: cut this out NOW | Alejandra Lagunes

We are overfed, over-supplemented, over-medicated, overworked, overstimulated. Alejandra Lagunes went from tech companies to the Mexican Senate, and from there to biohacking. During the pandemic her severe anxiety and panic attacks came back, which led her to research psilocybin and to introduce a bill on entheogens that is still pending in the Senate. On No me hables de tu libro, the podcast hosted by Álvaro Barrera, she explains why politics lags behind science, what peptides really are, how she is going through perimenopause and which habits she has kept up for 15 years. There's a live exercise to activate the vagus nerve and an unfiltered conversation about longevity, mental health and preventive health. — Psilocybin and mental health: the entheogens bill in Mexico — Psychedelics: why they ended up on Schedule I under Nixon — Psilocybin and treatment-resistant depression: what clinical trials show — Burnout, cortisol and microdosing — Neuroplasticity and blue zones: movement, diet, community and purpose — The vagus nerve: breathing to calm anxiety — Peptides and longevity: BPC-157, TB-500, GHK-Cu and the certificate of analysis (COA) — Hormones, perimenopause, menopause and testosterone thieves — 16-hour intermittent fasting for 15 years — Bryan Johnson, biohacking and preventive health — Sugar, alcohol and Peter Attia's four horsemen
