Ben Greenfield: What Biohackers Get Wrong & What ACTUALLY Works!
What was said
"And this whole field of like um plasma feresis, right? Pulling blood out, filtering it, putting typically something like elbumin back in, and then an IV or like full body blood filtration, which is super gnarly. Uh you can act, you can't do this in the US, but like you go to Mexico and get all the blood sucked out of your body typically via a catheter in your jugular. >> Have you done it? Uh yeah."
Ben Greenfield says he has experimented with plasmapheresis-style blood filtration, including travelling to Mexico for a version he claims is not available in the US. He describes the practice as an emerging biohacking “oil change for the body”, and says clinics in Austin now offer related catheter-based blood-filtration treatments.
