Take your brain optimization to the next level with the MitoMIND™ helmet
Light is much more than a wave of energy that signals the absence of darkness.
It can have a profound effect on your biology, and unfortunately, given the likelihood that you spend far more of your time indoors than your ancestors did—not to mention that screen time is at an all-time high right now – you are at higher risk of health conditions ranging from sleep disorders to cancer and cardiovascular disease.
Stacking my biohacks — I thought why not make a clay mask while feeding my brain with light?
Certain wavelengths of sunlight are more beneficial than others, with red and infrared wavelengths having the unique ability to enhance mitochondrial function. Improved mitochondrial function, which affects virtually all cellular metabolic activity, has been widely shown to improve muscle recovery, inflammation, pain, sleep, and overall skin health.
Needless to say, getting enough daily light intake is vital. Lately, one of my favorite biohacking tools to ensure I’m enjoying all the benefits of light is the MitoMIND — a cutting-edge helmet packed with 256 LEDs that emit 810nm near-infrared light that boosts cognition, enhances mental clarity, and increases focus. MitoMIND offers six preset programs, including Recharge, Sleep, Meditate, Relax, Concentrate and Peak Focus, providing flexible options for your brain’s various needs. Additionally, it allows for custom settings, allowing adjustments to the time, pulse rate, and volume to suit your preferences. With a sleek, ergonomic design, you can relax and enjoy the benefits of transcranial red light therapy without feeling like you’re gearing up for a space mission. Adjustable app? Control. Comfortable every session? Double check.
If you’re ready to step into the future of brain health, where optimizing your performance is as easy as putting on a helmet, use code BGLIFE for 5% off the MitoMIND helmet here.

How a 61-year-old on a budget shaved 23 years off his biological age
Imagine transforming your life in a way that shaves decades off your biological age, all while sticking to a budget that doesn’t require the bankroll of a tech mogul.
Pascoe is currently gaining world attention as a leader in Rejuvenation Olympicsa unique competition dedicated to defying the perception of aging. His ultra-healthy lifestyle has seemingly erased about 23 years from his biological age.
Remarkably, Pascoe ranks just above notorious tech millionaire Bryan Johnson (who was a guest on my show last year). Johnson, 46, spends a staggering $2 million a year on his anti-aging regimen, which includes practices such as experimenting with multigenerational plasma exchange (gives plasma to his father and his son donates plasma to him), always walk under an umbrella when outdoors and sleep around 8pm every night.
Unlike Johnson, Pascoe enjoys more regular Joe activities, like spending time in the sauna, watching Netflix, and maintaining a well-rounded skincare routine. To be fair, Pascoe’s approach to defying aging involves an extensive regimen—one that includes taking 120 supplements daily; peptide injectiondonating plasma four times a year and submitting hyperbaric oxygen therapy biannual. However, he has found cost-effective alternatives to aging gracefully and “in reverse,” such as plasma donations that actually pay him (saving him at least $8,000 to $10,000, but delivering the same results).
A shared belief with Pascoe is that biohacking doesn’t have to be expensive to be effective. In fact, one of my recent podcasts covers biohacking on a budget at length. From taking a cold shower to sweating outside in the sun, walking 10,000 steps a day, or fasting, there are a million different biohacks that are free or cheap. As Pascoe puts it, “I’m not leaving any inexpensive, well-thought-out intervention off the table, like saunathe cold treatment.”
So what can you learn from Pascoe about the art of aging gracefully?
Pascoe’s journey highlights the importance of taking a holistic and preventative approach to health, one that balances innovative treatments with affordable, everyday practices (that don’t have to break the bank). It emphasizes treating your body like it’s a valuable commodity — something you should be willing to invest as much as you can.
Oh, and exciting news — I’ll be interviewing Dave Pascoe on my podcast soon, so if you want to discover more biohacking tips that extend your longevity (without costing you a fortune), be sure to follow my podcast at apple, Spotify, Google Podcasts, YouTube, or whatever listening app you use (just search for “Ben Greenfield”). You can also listen to the show directly on my website.
