Maloof does that by biohacking - a term that may sound disconcertingly high-tech but doesn’t need to be, she says. “The equation is simple: greater energy = greater performance.”Reboot your metabolic healthMuch of that performance is driven by our metabolic health. (A slim person, for instance, could have elevated cholesterol and blood sugar levels, making them appear healthy on the outside, while being unhealthy on the inside.) Maintaining healthy blood sugar levels can become more challenging as we age (and our cells degrade), with insulin resistance and pre-diabetes potential risks. What to do: Maloof suggests cutting out snacking and trying to go five hours between meals, to train your body to use body fat as a source of energy.
