Generally, 'biohacking' implies working with the natural homeostatic systems of your body - what Dave Asprey refers to a 'Meat OS', meat operating system ; ) Understanding the natural homeostatic functions of your body will allow you to best optimize your health without having to rely on invasive techniques that modify the body via artificial means which generally is not a good thing since it bypasses your innate system of checks and balances - as do many medications. The more you educate yourself on related topics, the better you can relate to and understand the principles behind biohacking that force your body to adapt in a way that helps optimize your health rather than allow it to become lazy. It's more important as you age and your body loses homeostasis or ability to maintain it - via excess weight, drop in hormones, excess stress or lack of exercise etc. All of which can be addressed via basic approaches of a healthy diet, nutrition, exercise and stress reduction - basically what the system of Yoga attempts to provide, which also includes 'spiritual health' which (in theory) will allow you to be more in sync with your body/mind and 'greater reality'... However it best suits your ideals and objectives vs. just looking at the body as a biological machine and how to optimize it's functionality while maximizing it's performance - more or less what Biohacking implies. ; )
