About this deal

Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for ways to hack their lifestyle a bit in manageable ways, but as others have mentioned, I will probably need to re-read to fully absorb all the info. In this book, Davinia breaks down how best to optimise ALL our hormones and delves into how they can impact our weight, focus, sleep and energy.

So glad I had this on audible because there's so many words that I didn't particularly understand that I'd have been reading over and over to try and get them to sink in. Everyone’s entitled to what works for their body, but I personally think not biting anything until the evening is extremely unhealthy and can ruin your relationship with food. It's very trendy, sweary, social media junky type persona from the author but some people might like that. But our hormones regulate everything from our sleep, to the way we eat, our stress response and our moods.

However, keto powder for breakfast and cutting out as much vegetable oil as I can, ive seen the numbers drop on the scale which i wasnt getting from exercise. Entrepreneur, biohacking pioneer, weight loss expert and mother of four, Davinia Taylor's career started on television. until it comes to her personal hatred of vegans where she thinks its then OK to ditch the science and facts and uses it as a platform to say how much she hates vegans, plantbased diets etc with alot of claims based on her prejudiced and misunderstandings, and not actually science and facts. The reason I'm giving it a one star however, is that she begins with going on about how she only wants science facts, everything about science and facts, only the science and facts. It would be more useful to give lots of options, present what she's discovered with kindness and consideration to a variety of people's life circumstances, then it widens who can access the "hacks".

This book is written in a way that makes the information easily makes sense without loads of technical jargon. Biography: Entrepreneur, biohacking pioneer, weight loss expert and mother of four, Davinia Taylor's career started on television. I was all praise for this book until near the end the author talks about her diet during her menstrual cycle, and she doesn’t eat solid food until 6pm for some weeks? I left it a few weeks before thinking, "Come in, be open-minded and give it another shot, you might learn something ' alas I did not. PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.Particularly fascinating learning about ingredients in food and even ‘healthy bars’ and vegan burgers which are super anti inflammatory and not great for you. I managed to get halfway through before realising I was arguing outloud with her 'science based' claims with no credible, non biased evidence to back up her sweeping statements.

As a desperate 54 year old menopausal, overweight , sleep deprived nightmare, never knowing where to start with any of it, I finally feel like there's light at the end of the tunnel. Loved listening to how Davina told her story and how she explained everything 😁absolutely brilliant! This groundbreaking new book is full of simple, accessible hacks that will make you feel not just better, but amazing. Davinia gives symptom-led advice, backed up with the expertise of a doctor, on how lifestyle hacks and supplements can balance our cortisol, adrenaline, dopamine and more, even Vitamin D (yep, it's a hormone).It would cost a small fortune to keep up with the regime being suggested, and some aren't even available in the UK.

The recommendation throughout seems to be that we should be taking lots (and LOTS) of vitamin and mineral supplements. If you didn't already know that sugar, alcohol and ultra processed foods are bad for you, you may find this book enlightening. THE INSTANT NUMBER ONE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER'A wonderful book' Dr Chris van Tulleken, Sunday Times bestselling author of Ultra-Processed PeopleSleep better thanks to cherriesFix your brain fog with good fatsImprove your metabolism with brazil nutsWhen we talk about hormones, we so often think of them as a 'women's issue'. There's nothing really new in the book either, the information can be sought from much better written and discussed sources so I'd personally suggest you go elsewhere and save your money.By completing your purchase, you agree to Audible's Conditions of Use and authorise Audible to charge your designated card or any other card on file. This book has given me so much information, is so relatable, and Davinia makes it so easy to understand. There is a particular focus on the fact that this is not a one-size-fits-all solution, which I really appreciate. I think the actual real book would be better for you to go back and check facts, use as reference material and cross reference. Unbeknownst to me, I have already been bio-hacking for some time with some of the dietary tips Davinia talks about, and it's nice to have an explanation of how and why this works.
