Summary

On a recent trip to the beach, I dove into the ocean depths with Andrés Preschel, a Miami-based fitness wizard and friend of mine who's just as nuts about exercise physiology as I am.

Andrés and I chatted about everything from freediving to spearfishing, from breathwork to staying healthy while on the road. But that's just the tip of the iceberg.

Andrés' story is a testament to perseverance. New York-born but Venezuela-raised, Andrés navigated life with ADD from an early age, all the while dealing with health issues like body dysmorphia, anxiety, insomnia, and more. Yet, in true warrior fashion, he decided to take charge of his own health before his hardest year in high school, stepping off medication and taking on a health-focused journey.

Blending a passion for sports with a scientific brain, Andrés dove into the study of human nutrition and physiology, overcoming his personal battles and even acing academic exams in the process. Fast forward, and he's built up quite the résumé: a degree from the University of Miami, numerous academic accolades, and a muscular physique to boot.

Currently, as the founder of Know Your Physio and a founding member at Drym Health, Andrés is on a mission to offer lifestyle solutions to the most ambitious people out there, creating data-driven programs for better performance, longer lifespan, ideal body composition, and so much more. When he's not geeking out on health and fitness, you can find him spearfishing, cycling, cooking, or chilling with his loved ones.

0:00.0	My name is Ben Greenfield and on this episode of the Ben Greenfield Life Podcast.
0:04.3	An interesting pattern that I've noticed is a lot of these high-performing CEOs that also happen to be, you know,
0:11.0	endurance athletes and such. There's actually, for some reason, a lot of these guys tend to love triathlon and, you know, marathon and such.
0:18.6	Anyway, I started to notice a pattern and so a lot of these guys have elevated sex horn binding globulin
0:23.6	and so their features are strong and it's kind of low. And my hypothesis, because I've seen this pattern now, time and time again,
0:29.6	my hypothesis is that they're under consuming carbohydrate. I think a lot of these guys are suddenly cart phobic and look,
0:36.2	while I really, truly believe in maintaining stable blood glucose levels, if you're a high-performing executive and on top of that,
0:44.8	if you're doing physical activity, your brain and your nervous system is so, and your muscle is soaking up glucose,
0:51.0	soaking it up, you need to make sure you get enough, otherwise you're going to tank your hormones.
1:00.0	Faith, family, fitness, health, performance, nutrition, longevity, ancestral living, biohacking, and a whole lot more.
1:12.0	Welcome to the show.
1:21.0	There are a lot of different so-called EMF mitigation devices out there that reports to protect you from EMF.
1:29.0	Barely any of them have any actual rigorous scientific proof behind them, however.
1:35.0	There is a device. It's a suite of devices that I recently found and it's a suite of devices that actually have scientific and peer-reviewed research,
1:47.0	third-party testing behind them, and global patents on their technology.
1:52.0	Most other technologies claim to block or harmonize EMFs.
1:57.0	This technology actually modulates the signal to allow your body to be able to more naturally handle EMFs.
2:06.0	What it does is it changes and reorganizes chaotic or harmful electromagnetic radiation and electromagnetic fields into a biologically compatible form,
2:15.0	virtually eliminating any harmful effects to the body, and they have some very impressive brain scan and human research behind this stuff.
2:24.0	It's called Aries Tech. They have a bunch of products that utilize passive microprocessors and antenna powered by the sources of surrounding radiation,
2:34.0	kind of like a chip in your credit card.
2:36.0	But their low EMF, it's a very, very low signal. The resonator antenna and microprocessor restructure and modulate EMFs in a similar fashion to say like noise-canceling headphones.
