Human Optimization requires complete analysis of nutritional intake, sleep hygiene, stress management, environmental influences, community support, and emotional stability. While some claim to "BIOHACK" their way to better health; Frank uses an integrated approach to health and disease prevention using science, evidence, and personal research in three areas:
Nutrition & Metabolism
Human Physiology
Holistic Lifestyle
