Foreword by Dave Asprey
A breakthrough program for women to revive their lost energy and
vitality, developed by a leading biohacker and physician
Inside of you, there is a spark--it's what animates you, and without it,
you could not live. This energy creation isn't mystical, nor is it
spiritual; it is science. We know from research that our cellular
machinery transforms the food we eat and the air we breathe into the
electricity that fuels us. With the right lifestyle inputs, we glow with
energy; but when the demands on our bodies exceed our capacity--as is
true for so many of us--we become burned out, mentally and physically.
Now, in The Spark Factor, Dr. Molly Maloof shares a program uniquely
tailored to the biology of women--a plan that targets the mitochondria,
the power source of the cells. As Dr. Maloof shows, the intense,
all-or-nothing approaches commonly used by biohackers to optimize
health--including sustained fasting, ultra-low-carb diets, and intense
training--can be harmful, especially for women, because they create
excessive stress in an already-stressed body, which can make us tired,
weak, and prone to illness.
Dr. Maloof's innovative program--which has been used successfully by her
patients--offers lifestyle changes that target the unique biology of
women and provide immediate and long-term benefits. Instead of denying
our bodies, we need to listen to what they are telling us. Once we
become aware of our physical needs, we can give ourselves the resources
to become more connected, nourished, safe, and strong--at both the
micro- and the macro-level.
With cutting-edge biohacking insights, strategies for personalized
nutrition, hormonal health and stress management, The Spark Factor is
the book women have been waiting for to help them reclaim their vitality
and achieve lasting health.
