0:00.0	Post-menopausal women, when given a matriarchal position of caring for the community,
0:09.0	of bringing up future generations, of passing on wisdom, wind up with an altogether different
0:14.0	purpose in life that I think lends itself to longevity just as much as, say, the ability to or the inability to bear children.
0:24.3	The most important thing when it came to longevity was relationships.
0:28.8	And while that doesn't necessarily have to mean your own children, I think it does speak volumes about just community friendships and potentially family in general.
0:32.7	Welcome to the Melanie Avalon Biohacking podcast, where we meet the world's top experts to explore the
0:39.1	secrets of health, mindset, longevity, and so much more. Are you ready to take charge of your
0:45.0	existence and biohack your life? This show is for you. Please keep in mind. We're not dispensing
0:51.5	medical advice and are not responsible for any outcomes you may
0:55.3	experience from implementing the tactics lying herein. So friends, are you ready to join me? Let's do

1:17.5	He is one of the main figures in the biohacking movement and has had such a profound
1:21.8	effect on my own journey in the world of biohacking.
1:25.1	It was such an honor to sit down with him today. And Ben does a lot of
1:29.1	podcasts. And I feel like today's conversation, we kind of covered some nuances that he doesn't
1:34.3	typically talk about. In fact, one of the things we talked about, he said that nobody has ever
1:38.9	asked him before on a podcast or probably ever in general. I really think you guys are going to
1:43.8	enjoy this conversation.
1:44.8	We talk about things I love like the role of wine and health and Ben's ultimate hangover protocol.
1:50.4	We talk about whether or not having kids is good or bad for your longevity, how attractiveness
1:55.7	relates to health, the importance of finding purpose, and even the role of biohacking in the Bible.
