The Biohacker Babes

We’re sisters and we’re joining forces to empower you to become your own Biohacker, and upgrade your life.

Lauren and Renee grew up in a health-driven family that prioritized the fundamentals of wellness and self-care (don’t worry, there was lots of mac n’ cheese and peanut butter and jelly sandwiches!). Their father, Gene Sambataro, The Original Biohacker and pioneer of Holistic Dentistry, taught them the importance of individualization and experimentation from a very young age.

Coming together as health entrepreneurs, Renee a Certified Nutritional Consultant and Holistic Lifestyle Coach with a Master’s degree in Nutrition, and Lauren, a Broadway performer, personal trainer and corrective exercise specialist, feel a strong passion and drive to not only share each of their journeys towards wellness, but their strategy and motivation to discover our unique bodies through the world of biohacking.

The Biohacker Babes podcast aims to create insight into the body’s natural healing abilities, strengthen your intuition, and empower you with techniques and modalities to optimize your health and wellness.

EPISODE TRANSCRIPT

Freddie Kimmel, Lauren and Renee (00:00.65)
And I think a lot of people want to say it was one thing that fixed it. Right. It was one, one hack, one pill, whatever. I can't, I had to address so many things at the same time and really put in the work. Right. I mean, emotional, physical, mental, everything biohacking back to nature. What am I eating? How am I sleeping? I had to address everything at once. It's a lot of work, but when you do it and you feel better, it's worth it.

Freddie Kimmel, Lauren and Renee (00:29.922)
Welcome to the Beautifully Broken Podcast brought to you by AmpCoil. I'm your host, Freddie Kimmel, and on this show, we discuss the common thread survivors share after walking through the fire, the practitioners making a difference, and the treatment modalities that deliver healing back into the hands of the people who need it most. Witness the inspiration we gain by navigating the human experience with grace, humility, and a healthy dose of mistakes. Because part of being human is being beautifully broken.

Freddie Kimmel, Lauren and Renee (01:02.382)
Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the beautifully broken podcast. I'm so excited. I'm here with the one and only the biohacking babes. I have a close personal connection to this team of ladies who is creating awesome content around biohacking, upgrading human biology and working with the environment. But

They're a pair of the only women that I know that are making true strides in this field, which is predominantly a male dominated corner of the ring. So welcome Lauren and Renee. what's up? you. Wow, the intro. Oh, I'm so excited you guys are here. Mostly because, mostly because it's really fun to nerd out with other biohackers and people who are looking at

the body is, I often say a super computer. We have all these forms of input and what does the body do with the information and then how do we get the body to uptake that new information? Can we jump in and can you tell me a little bit about how you got started into this obsession with feeling good, looking good, being well, avoiding chronic illness? Go ahead and jump in.

I love that you led with the obsession to feeling well, because I think that's what this is really about. It's not about the way you look, though. That's like a very positive outcome from all of the stuff that we're doing. But Renee and I, we're sisters and we just want to feel our best. And that is what brought us into this. We each struggled in our own ways with different things. actually, we got into this because of our

family and our dad who we call like the original biohacker. He's a biological dentist, but he's been doing his biohacking stuff forever. Renee like remembers a lot of great stories, which she can tell from our childhood, but we were exposed to this stuff before we even knew what it was. And I just feel so lucky and so grateful that I had an introduction to this at such a young age, because I think there's so many people grow up.

Freddie Kimmel, Lauren and Renee (03:17.078)
and families that are not nurturing in that way, that they have no idea what health is. We grow up and become adults and we look out to the world, to social media, to like public opinion to find out what healthy is. Like once we start having pain or once we start having symptoms or like feeling shitty or not feeling good about our bodies. And I just think we're both so lucky that we kind of had that innate education from a very young part of our lives.

Well, let's talk about that for a second. Let's talk about young. Can you tell me your first memory of a biohacking experience or something where you guys brought in some technology to the home to upgrade your biology with your in relation to your parents? I remember getting like a PEMF mat like soon out of college, which is not as a child, but that's the first time I was like given something and I didn't really fully understand it. And now PMF is like blowing out of proportion. Like everyone's doing and talking about it.

Renee actually has an amazing story of us being much younger. Well, I mean, this isn't really technology, but I remember we came home from ballet class one night and dad had his head on the kitchen table with an ear candle. Mom is like burning flame on top of this. And we're like, what in the world did we just walk into? I mean, that's obviously not technology, but that was when we knew.

okay, dad's into some weird stuff maybe. Yeah. And then the next thing was the vibration plate, which, you know, similar to PEMF, know, vibration plates are like in every gym now. But I remember being in, gosh, I don't know, maybe like fifth grade and my friends and I would go down in the basement and we would stand on the vibration plate because we thought it was fun. We're like, this is a cool toy. I don't know what it does, but. Now for people who don't know in the audience, can you give me the health benefits or can you explain a vibration plate?

Yeah, I mean, one of the biggest things that it does is it helps with the lymphatic system. So, you know, the lymphatic system is very important for immune health. But unfortunately, with most people being sedentary, there's nothing that's pumping the lymphatic system, right? Like we have our heart for the cardiovascular system. That's our pump. But the lymphatic system, unless you're exercising regularly, doing skin brushing, jump roping, things like that, you're not moving it. So the vibration plate is a great way for someone that's maybe

Freddie Kimmel, Lauren and Renee (05:36.926)
not physically fit enough to exercise or they're elderly, you just stand or sit on the plate and it shake literally shakes your body, right? It vibrates down to the cellular level and it cleans out that lymphatic system. Yeah. Also great for someone that's injured, but also just to spark some joy, like you experienced with your friends, Renee, like you probably made you giggle and that inherently was like health boosting to laugh and like enjoy yourself.

So I have a question about the plate. Is there a brand or a model that you really love or resonate? Because I I've started to research vibrations plates over the last eight months and there are ones that vibrate side to side up and down. They oscillate on different planes and different frequencies. Have you ever taken a deep dive on vibration plates? I haven't, but I, I love the Juvent, which they have a packed fitness right now. I can't scientifically tell you why.

Go ahead. Yeah. I was going to say the power plate. know his dad is now on like his second or third vibration plate because he wears them down so much. But I think the power plate, but I can't say why, you know, what research went into why he picked that one. Yeah. I just joined a fancy gym up here in Connecticut. I'm not going to say which one because it's a little pretentious. However, they have a power plate and it's, it's, is someone who has been through lime.

and toxic mold, I feel noticeably better when I get on the vibration plate because stagnation in the lymphatic system is a big thing when you've been kind of in that pattern, long-term chronic illness. You know, one thing that I always hear my Lyme docs say is that people will come in having been through like rounds of antibiotics or treatment and they say all they needed to do to move this person forward was to clean out their lymph.

that they had a lot of deadline, had a lot of mold sitting in the body. So I guess my follow-up question is, what is it that we need vibration plates in this day and age? Why are people not getting the movement that they would normally need to necessitate the body's cleaning out of this natural system, which doesn't have a pump for a reason? So what's the gap there between nature and where we're at now needing this plate?

Freddie Kimmel, Lauren and Renee (07:59.126)
That's easy. We're getting away from nature. We're sitting more, we're spending more time indoors. We are surrounding ourselves with EMFs, technology, and just moving away from nature, we're getting less grounding. And grounding is the easiest way to get vibration, like connecting with the earth and how many people put their feet in the grass every morning. I remember my dad doing that from a very young age, walking outside barefoot, and I thought it was crazy.

But he was out there like kind of doing his little stomp around. I'm like, what are doing in the grass? But no, that connection is really powerful and we're just not getting it. And then just being sedentary, we're not bouncing around. so another thing that we had in our house was... spacial recognition and relationships. Now tell me about some injury.
