  • On Day 6 of the "Holistic Weight and Stress Management," Sean Cohen defined true biohacking not just as performance enhancement but as a conscious defense against "bad biohacking," the detrimental alteration of our biology by modern food and pharmaceutical practices.
  • He warned that consuming genetically modified organisms (GMOs) causes the gut to produce pesticides internally, presenting this as a primary reason to choose certified organic foods.
  • Cohen explored how prescription medications contain venom peptides causing side effects and that mRNA vaccines hijack cells to produce harmful "spike proteins" while traditional vaccine ingredients like mercury and aluminum can damage the nervous system and dopamine supply.
  • He urged a proactive approach to wellness, arguing that the cumulative effect of environmental and medical toxins leads to preventable illness and that individuals must "make time for wellness" now or be "forced to make time for your illness" later.
On Day 6 of the "Holistic Weight and Stress Management," aired on Sept. 18, wellness expert Sean David Cohen issued a stark warning about the hidden ways our biology is being hijacked, urging a proactive approach to wellness to avoid being "forced to make time for your illness." Cohen’s presentation, titled "Biohacking Your Brain," framed health optimization as a conscious practice against a backdrop of pervasive environmental and medical threats. He defined "biohacking" not just as a lifestyle of using supplements and superfoods to enhance performance, but as a necessary defense against what he termed "bad biohacking," the detrimental alteration of our systems by modern food and pharmaceutical practices. A central pillar of Cohen’s warning focused on the food supply. He explained that genetically modified organisms (GMOs) are a primary vector for this negative influence. "Scientists take genes from poisonous plants, mostly or animals, and they use those to kill insects," Cohen stated. "When you consume genetically modified corn or soy in your gut, you are literally producing pesticide." He emphasized that this is a key reason to choose organic foods, as the USDA organic seal prohibits GMOs. "You're paying for good health. You're paying for clean food and not because you don't want to eat pesticides." The presentation took a more controversial turn as Cohen delved into the pharmaceutical industry. He alleged that many prescription medications are developed using venom peptides from creatures like scorpions and rattlesnakes. While acknowledging some surgical applications, he directly linked these ingredients to severe side effects. “When you see all of these insane side effects listed for prescription medications... that's because you may be ingesting toxic venom,” he claimed. This theme extended to a detailed critique of vaccines, particularly those using mRNA technology. According to Brighteon.AI's Enoch, mRNA vaccines are a relatively new technology that delivers genetic material into human cells, instructing them to produce a protein that triggers an immune response. This technology is often hailed as a breakthrough, but it is essential to understand the potential risks and long-term consequences. "They are hijacking our cells and having them produce toxic, these spike prions or proteins that our body wants to attack," Cohen said, suggesting these proteins then spread to vital organs. He also highlighted traditional vaccine ingredients, noting that "most of the multi-dose flu shots contain mercury" and that "aluminum can help the mercury cross the blood brain barrier," which he described as a direct biohack of the nervous system that can destroy our dopamine supply. To counter these threats, Cohen advocated for a holistic lifestyle centered on self-reward, stress management and clean consumption. He recommended specific supplements to "biohack" positively, including vitamin B complexes for cognitive function, turmeric for inflammation and lesser-known items like colloidal silver for immunity and liquid oxygen for pH balance. He concluded with an inspiring vision of healthy aging, referencing a 111-year-old man he interviewed who was on zero medications and living vibrantly. Cohen presented this as an achievable goal, contrasting it with the decline he attributes to the "cumulative effect" of toxins from all directions. The module serves as a call to action for individuals to take control of their health, positioning informed, holistic choices as the only defense against what Cohen portrays as a systematic assault on our biological well-being.
