Understanding and controlling all aspects of your body, in an effort to maintain an overall healthier mental and physical state, is a powerful way for everyone to achieve a longer and happier life. Some of the compelling ways people’s bodies constantly work to preserve their functions are explored in ‘Biohacking,’ Shockya’s exclusive clip from the new documentary, ‘Beyond Food.’

In an effort to explain how people are always both consciously and subconsciously working to sustain their bodies, such experts as athlete-author, Gabby Reece; nutritionist-author, David Asprey; and physicist Alan Cash explain how biohacking is an important healing element in a person’s anatomy. The interviewees also further discuss how people naturally use their own biological processes to improve their health.
