We’re Biohacking Our Way to Better Health: Introducing Biohack-HERS
Introducing Biohack-HERS: A wellness series featuring HigherDOSE founders Lauren Berlingeri and Katie Kaps and their pursuit to find the best biohacking technologies for women.
Biohacking is the future of wellness. Women are biohackers by nature — we have been tuning into our bodies since the beginning of time. We’re constantly balancing work, play, motherhood, partnership, and never-ending to-do lists. So, we innately know how to make the most of our time, our energy, and our constantly changing bodies. But the biohacking industry has been largely made up by and for men, until now. Introducing Biohack-HERS: a wellness series featuring HigherDOSE founders Lauren Berlingeri and Katie Kaps.
In this new series, Lauren and Katie are taking on the hottest trends in wellness. From health hacks to wellness treatments to cutting-edge health technologies, they’re in pursuit of maximum human performance for the woman’s body, mind, and beyond.
Biohacking 101
Biohacking is a do-it-yourself approach to biology for optimized health and well-being. It’s all about taking our health into our own hands and making niche updates to our wellness regimens — be it a shift in diet, future-focused beauty treatment, or a change in sleeping habits — to achieve maximum health benefits. It’s all about hacking our way to improved health, longevity, and well-being.
This revolutionary approach to wellness is breaking down barriers to cultivate solutions for some of our biggest healthcare woes. Biohacking technologies can strengthen longevity, enhance brain function, improve mental health, promote weight loss, reverse signs of aging, and more. And, Biohack-HERS is pulling back the curtain to reveal how this is all possible.
Introducing Biohack-HERS
Since it first came on the scene, biohacking has been largely catered to men. And, while all those tools, technologies, hacks, and help guides we’ve been served are groundbreaking approaches to health, they are modeled after men’s bodies and minds. Women have been left out of medical, health, and fitness research. So, assuming women will also experience the same results won’t just lead to poor outcomes, it could also mean harming our health.
In Biohack-HERs, Lauren and Katie are changing that, and asking the questions only women would. From new age mental health modalities such as psychedelic therapy to biohacking for better sex and vaginal rejuvenation to stem cell treatments for anti-aging, they’re unlocking the world of biohackng for women.
Lauren Berlingeri is dedicated to inspiring others through fitness and naturally-healthy lifestyle practices. After launching her career as an international model, Berlingeri went on to star in her own show, “Women vs. Workout”—grossing over 15 million views and receiving a Webby Award nomination for Best Host. This experience led to extreme sports hosting for brands such as UFC, EA Sports, and IMG. Having cemented her name within the fitness industry, Berlingeri decided to expand her expertise, earning a holistic nutritionist and health coach certification at The Institute of Integrative Nutrition. Her venture into the health and wellness startup spectrum began in 2014 as one of the first creative minds at Aloha.com—doing product development, leading the brand ambas-sador program, and brand partnerships. Lauren discovered the power of Infrared technology — specifically Infrared saunas — and saw an opportunity to bring the biohacking tool to the masses. Since co-founding HigherDOSE with Katie Kaps, the wellness brand has experienced meteoric success, boiling down to a true revolutionization of the spa business. Creating all the initial Forbes, branding themselves and even acting as models in their first campaigns, the brand exploded, leading the way to at-home sauna systems that thrived during the pandemic. As a female biohacker and mother of twins, Lauren brings a fresh perspective to a space that has been dominated by male voices from its inception, making it HigherDOSE’s core mission to educate women about their bio-individuality and give them the tools they need to reach their own best selves, with content designed to educate people on how to take control of their own wellness regimens.
