3 Easy Biohacks You Can Start In 2020

Biohacking doesn't have to involve microchips and blood transfusions. You can start small and decide if you want to dive deeper into the world of biohacking...

Here are 3 easy biohacks you can start in 2020.

1. Eating Quality Food

Now, when I say "quality food" it doesn't mean going to the most expensive grocery store and stocking up on organic foods. Try and avoid foods that are bad for you and eat more foods that are good for you. It's quite simple. From a nutritional perspective, humans are able to thrive on a wide variety of edible things, and people who eat a lot of minimally processed, plant-based things tend to live long, healthy lives. Anyone who makes strict rules about an avoidance-based or one-size-fits-all diet is selling something—probably a supplement, possibly calling it a biohack.

Bonus tricks include eating socially, taking time to cook and eat slowly, and eating from an environmentally conscious perspective—eating locally and sustainably, appreciating all the water and energy and labor that go into every bite you take.

2. Go outside more

The ways natural environments hack our brains are still open questions in a lot of ways, but the notion is common sense. Time in nature has been found likely to decrease brooding and increase healing after surgery, among other benefits. Still, year after year, the average amount of time people spend indoors increases in wealthy countries. If this is happening to you, you could try ecotherapy or potentially get a prescription for park time from your doctor.

Several studies show that nature walks have memory-promoting effects that other walks don't.

In one study, University of Michigan students were given a brief memory test, then divided into two groups. One group took a walk around an arboretum, and the other took a walk down a city street. When the participants returned and did the test again, those who had walked among trees did almost 20% percent better than they had first time. The people who had taken in city sights instead did not consistently improve.

3. Try to make more money this year

This is the top biohack. Wealthy people live longer than people who cannot afford to eat well and are constantly under stress about things like making rent or missing a day of work wages when the mayor calls a snow day and they have to stay home with the kids.

Wealth is the top predictor of health, globally and throughout history. If you have to work two jobs, or if you live in a neighborhood where you fear for your safety or where there’s intense pollution, or if you don’t have regular access to lead-free water and live in a space that can’t be kept warm in the winter and cool during heat waves, then you’re more likely to suffer.

There are hundreds of ways to make money online. It isn't easy, but it's simple. You can become a freelancer on Fiverr, sell things online on Etsy, Shopify or eBay, start a Youtube channel, learn affiliate marketing, and way more.

All of this comes down to one thing. You need a website to start your own online business. We recommend Wordpress or Shopify. They are the most reliable and easiest to use when starting an online business.

Use our links and get a 14 day trial for Shopify, and a Wordpress site for just 1.99 a month.

In 2020 you should focus on your health, wealth, happiness one step at a time using these biohacks and achieve success!

Good luck!
