Name: The biohack couple.
Age: Kayla Barnes-Lentz is 33 and Warren Lentz is 36.
Appearance: Optimised.
Who are these people? Barnes-Lentz runs a wellness company and Lentz is a marketing executive.
And what is biohacking? Technology-driven clean living designed to promote health and longevity.
With what aim? The pair plan to live “healthily until the age of 150”.
How long have they been together? They got married a year ago.
In that case, they’ll soon change their minds about wanting to live so long. And in the meantime, their daily biohack routine keeps them pretty busy.
What does it entail? In the first instance, rising before dawn. The couple “love to set the tone for our day by optimising our mind and body”, Barnes-Lentz told the Independent, kicking things off with a bit of early morning PEMF.
PEMF? Pulsed electromagnetic field therapy. It’s supposed to stimulate cells and reduce inflammation.
Then what? Then they work out. After that, it’s a sunrise walk and an organic breakfast, followed by a day of cold-water plunging and taking turns in their hyperbaric chamber.
They sound like fun. It’s not over yet. They eat dinner at 5.30, take another walk, expose themselves to red light after sunset and tuck themselves up by 9.
If I had to do that every day, I’m not sure I’d want to make it to 70. It’s not just all-consuming – it’s expensive, too. They spend six figures annually on their longevity habit.
How did these two crazy kids meet? Via a dating app. She was in Ohio, he was in California.
And how long did it take for the subject of biohacking to come up? Not long. “Health was brought up immediately,” said Barnes-Lentz. “I also asked for his labs on our second call.”
Labs? Lab test results. Her website claims Barnes-Lentz is one of “the most measured women in the world”.
And she approved of his labs? Only up to a point. “I sent him additional labs to complete, including a gut test, comprehensive blood work, genetic test and total toxic burden test.”
Love finds a way, I guess. Yup. Lentz passed and Barnes-Lentz brought him home to introduce him to her red light panels and hyperbaric chamber.
It’s a story as old as time. But not as old as Kayla and Warren will be one day.
Do say: “Let me not to the marriage of true minds admit impediments. Or carbs.”
Don’t say: “Sorry, but I’ve decided to live for ever with someone else.”
