Happy 2017! It’s a new year (31,536,000 seconds, to be exact), which for many means setting new personal goals. And for me, that includes gratitude - so to begin, thank you for the support! Just wanted to share few brief updates you may find useful, whether you are interested in self-quantification, biohacking, or are just looking for quick hacks to improve your well-being and optimize aspects of your life.

(The image above is a visualization of my 2016 location data, created using a neat tool called Move-o-Scope).

💾🔬 Announcing BobAPI - A Personal API to Collect and Share All of My Life Data

A challenge with collecting a lot of data is that it ends up scattered all over the place - spreadsheets, apps, etc. I decided to build my own personal data warehouse that aims to aggregate and publicly share all of my self-collected data. Take my data, please!

☠️💥 Using Sauna and Niacin Detox to Reduce Heavy Metals and Toxic Burden

Lab tests showed I had extremely high levels of lead and mercury. A 30-day infrared sauna and niacin detox protocol brought my mercury level down ~36%, lead level down ~6%, increased HDL by 20%, and had a positive effect on red blood cells, testosterone, liver, and immune system!

End note

That's all for now! I'll have lots of exciting news to share in the coming months but in the meantime please let me know if there are any ways I can better help you (more how-tos? interviews? online chats/Q&As? news? product reviews?), or if there are any topics you would like to see me cover in the future.

If you haven't already, I'd love for you to connect with me on Instagram, Twitter, Facebook, and LinkedIn.
