Summary

In this episode of Bulletproof Radio, my guest is a scientist and entrepreneur in the field of genomics who is regarded as one of the most innovative leaders in the emerging personalized medicine and lifestyle genomics space.

Mansoor Mohammed, Ph.D., president and chief scientific officer of The DNA Company, is considered to be a pioneer in medical genomics. He’s a classically trained molecular immunologist who has received academic and industry awards, published numerous papers, and holds patents in the general fields of molecular diagnostics and genomics research.

“Functional genomics is about understanding the DNA behaves in every definition like a language,” Mansoor says. “It has vocabulary, i.e., the genes. But it also has grammar, sentence structure, syntax, nuances. You've got to be able to read genetic structure at the holistic level.”

Listen on to learn more about how advancements across the exciting field of functional genomics are influencing personalized medicine and how The DNA Company is approaching female hormone health.

“We've chosen female health as our primary initial focus, and more specifically, taking a functional genomics’ view of the mechanisms that drive hormone health in women,” Mansoor says.

Enjoy the show!

0:00.0	And this is where Dave, the concept, and I noted this to you when we first spoke, the concept of thinking of DNA truly Dave as a language.
0:10.0	That was the key for me.
0:12.0	Thus far we were thinking of DNA as a vocabulary.
0:16.0	In other words, the more genes you studied, 10,000, 15,000, 20,000, about 22,000, we thought we could just simply stack these genes, 22,000 of them,
0:28.0	figure out what they do, study them in a siloed manner and off we go.
0:42.0	Bullets prove radio, a state of high performance.
0:46.0	You're listening to Bullets prove radio with Dave Asprey.
0:49.0	When you're stacking your biohacks, one of the most important things you can do is make sure that you recover properly because you get rest.
0:57.0	That's when your body recovers.
0:59.0	In fact, that's part of the laziness principle from my book Smarter Not Harder.
1:03.0	And one of the things I like to use is an infrared sauna like Sunlighten.
1:08.0	That's because you actually rest while you're in the sauna, but more importantly, it makes you get really good sleep at night.
1:15.0	There are tons of studies that show that sauna heat works really, really well.

1:29.0	Better yet, because you're detoxing in the sauna, you'll be able to handle the stress that you face every single day.
1:35.0	Sunlighten has four sauna collections. Each has a different combination of light and heat and invest in your rest.
1:42.0	Go to sunlighten.com slash Dave.
1:45.0	You can mention Dave Asprey and you can save up to $600 on your sauna.
1:49.0	I decided that this year's biohacking conference theme is play.
1:53.0	Biohacking tech is cool, but the biohacking community is so important.
1:57.0	So we're having two specific sessions dedicated to making authentic connections and lifelong friends who care about the things you care about.
2:05.0	People like us.
