Joe Cohen | How to Customize The Keto Diet Based on Genetic Testing For BETTER RESULTS! KKP: 715

Today, I am blessed to have here with me Joe Cohen, founder of SelfDecode, SelfHacked, and LabTestAnalyzer. He is a thriving speaker and entrepreneur that has been independently researching health and science for over 15 years. Growing up with a myriad of health issues that conventional medicine failed to solve pushed Joe to study his own genes to get to the root cause of his problems.

After fixing his chronic health issues with a personalized gene-based approach to health, he knew that he needed to share this information with the masses. Founding SelfHacked, LabTestAnalyzer and SelfDecode was Joe’s way of helping people take their health into their own hands.

Now, Joe regularly speaks at events alongside the world’s top health experts and continues to work on enhancing his company’s products to provide people with access to cutting-edge tools and information designed to optimize health.

In this episode, Joe talks about how his health started to crumble in his early twenties. When he decided to study the body to improve his health, Joe learned how genes could be the answer to optimizing his life. We talk about the critical markers for your body and how SelfDecode can be a life-changing tool for your health journey. Joe dives into all the things affecting your health like diet, sleep, stress, and environmental toxins. Tune in as we chat about the importance of light exposure, exercise, and Joe explains why your genetic risks are not the end of the world.

• He couldn’t go to school, have relationships, or get a job. 
• Joe got into the coconut oil craze; he took tons of it. Eventually, his health crashed.

[11:25] You Don’t Feel Well Because You Are Eating An Unsuitable Diet

• Joe eats a low-carb and meat-based diet.
• Genetics has something to say about how people digest carbs.
• Some genes are related to how people interact with their diet.

[18:05] About The Sleep Deficit and What Problems Joe Will See With Sleep

• Sleep is an art. 
• Sleep is something that people have to be conscious of and not take for granted. 
• There's a lot of things that could go wrong with sleep. 
• Some problems that you could be having with your sleep:
• • Not enough REM
  • Not enough slow-wave
  • Waking up in the middle of the night
  • Having to pee
  • Not getting a good rhythm 
  • Waking up from the light too early
  • Light in the room at night
  • Poor temperature
  • Eating too late
• As you can see, so many things can go wrong with your sleep. If you don’t sleep well, you are not going to feel well.
• If you aren’t tracking your sleep, you will never know. 

[22:55] Light Exposure Is Great For Feeling More Productive  

• If you don’t go outside during the day, you aren’t going to feel as good. 
• Joe gets at least three hours of light a day. When he gets light, he notices an impact. 
• You need at least two hours a day minimum. 
• The more light you get each day, the better off you are going to be. 
• Don’t wear your sunglasses! 
• If you don’t get a lot of sun exposure, red light therapy can be the next best option. 

[29:30] How Unhappiness and Stress Can Affect Your Health Journey 

• One of the main contributors affecting your longevity and health has to do with stress.
• The people who live longer deal with stress a lot better.
• Stress really is detrimental to the body in many ways.
• If you don't have good personal relationships, that can cause a lot of stress. 
• Community is another great way to feel better and less stressed. 

[36:30] Natural Stressors Are A Great Way To Feel Better 

• Exercise is a great natural stressor.
• Other stressors include cold and hot therapies. 
• Changing your diet is another stressor.
• If you aren’t stressing your mind and your body, then you aren’t going to grow. 

[38:05] Environmental Toxins Are Causing Health Problems 

• VOCs, mold, and environmental pollution are causing health problems. 
• Open up your windows every single day to help with environmental toxins. 
• Getting outside will also be helpful. 
• When you breathe in the fresh air, it helps your immune system. 

[43:55] What's The Difference Between Genetic Risk and Overall Risk? 

• Risk is a probabilistic number. 
• You can prevent genetic risks by living a healthy lifestyle.
• If you have a high risk for something, that doesn’t mean you will get it. 
• Overall, having a high genetic risk doesn’t mean you actually have a high risk.
