Transcript

Vitamins are a form of biohacking. They're just as dangerous as any drug you could put in your mouth. If you do not know what you're doing with them, bad things will happen to you and unfortunately, frequently those bad things are the same thing you had before you took the vitamin. The supplement industry at the moment is a mess. I have seen dramatic things happen to my patients that are not what I expected and most of these too little of something and too much of something feels the same in what you feel physically. And what you feel physically can be as subtle as anxiety, it can be a panic attack. Those are all run by the chemicals of our body. None of these things are things I was taught. They are things my patients would come back and say, I took this thing you told me to and I felt terrible like in two hours and it's environment. And I bought it off the shelf. It's 400 mg. This book says I should give 400 mg. I was doing things that were experimental because there was no answer and And I found out by accident that you have to be very careful when you biohack. You are doing something that was not meant to happen to you. They're four, you should pay attention to what you're feeling.
