Hey, everyone, welcome back to the Energy Blueprint podcast.

I'm your host, Ari Witten, and today I have with me, my friend Joe Cohen, who has a very funny bio.

I'm going to read it to you right now.

It says Joe Cohen won the genetic lottery of bad genes.

It's quite a way to start off. He said as a kid, he suffered from inflammation, brain fog, fatigue, digestive problems, anxiety, depression, and other issues that were poorly understood in both conventional and alternative medicine.

Frustrated by the lack of good information and tools, Joe decided to embark on a journey to explore the information contained within his own DNA and lab results to improve his symptoms and optimize his health. With thousands of experiments and PubMed articles under his belt, Joe found it self-hacked, the content resource that was missing when he needed it.

He also found it self-decode and lab test analyzer to help decode his genetics and lab tests.

Now Joe is a thriving entrepreneur, author, and speaker continuing to live out his mission of helping people optimize their health with the most up-to-date,

unbiased, and science-based content and tools.

So welcome to the show for the second time.

Nice to have you back.

Thank you for having me, Ari.

Yeah.

So obviously you've got a background in, you know, you started off for several years with self-hacked,

which was about biohacking.

You then got into self-decode, which is a massive resource that I know you had a giant team of

employees put together to put together all this research on genetics and basically created this analyzer to analyze

people's genetics, paired that with this, you know, trying to piece together this full

body of research on, you know, whether you're at increased or decreased risk for all kinds of

conditions in relationship to these genetic markers.

And you formed over the last several years a lot of expertise around genetics as a result of that.

So in this podcast, we're going to talk about COVID-19.
