After being diagnosed with glioblastoma multiforme IDH1 wild type, one of the most aggressive forms of brain cancer, and given just three months to live, Dave Bolton is still here 11 years later. He represents just 0.000015732% of the global population. Dave underwent surgery, chemotherapy and radiotherapy but this conversation is about what he did beyond treatment. From mindset, hydration and nutrition to exercise and supplementation, Dave shares the changes he made after his diagnosis and why he believes there was never one single “magic bullet” behind his journey.

Struggling to fall asleep, waking during the night or feeling like you never properly rested? PEMF therapy is increasingly being studied for sleep and insomnia, with human trials looking at everything from sleep quality and night time waking to brainwave activity, anxiety and nervous-system regulation

We break down what the research actually shows about PEMF and sleep, including controlled insomnia studies, changes in delta and theta brainwave activity, the possible role of the autonomic nervous system, and how pain or discomfort may also interfere with sleep. We then make it practical: when to use PEMF, whether you need to sleep on a mat, where to place a localised applicator, and what frequency, intensity and session duration may be most appropriate before bed and at bed time.

Biohacking can quickly become a full-time job: supplements, wearables, blood tests, cold exposure, red light, PEMF and the constant pressure to optimise everything. Dr Mark Atkinson explains why better health often starts with doing less, getting the fundamentals right and learning how to identify what actually works for you, rather than copying somebody else’s routine.

Mark, a medical doctor who worked alongside Dave Asprey as medical director of Bulletproof, breaks down how to start biohacking, the foundations of health optimisation, Biohacking 2.0 vs 3.0, nervous system regulation, sleep, emotional health, wearables, blood testing, supplements and health technology. We also explore how to tell whether a biohack is genuinely helping, when to introduce something new, why consistency matters, and the warning signs that trying to perfect your health has started creating more stress than benefit.
