Dr Julia Jones

Author

The Music Diet, Neuron, F-Bomb

Dr Julia Jones was first introduced to biohacking techniques by the US Navy SEALs during a visit to their Coronado, CA base in the early 1990s. They were using music to reduce anxiety in high pressure situations, improve pain tolerance, increase motivation, boost confidence, and enhance sleep. Since then, her 30-year career has researched and applied these science-based ‘hacking’ principles in depth. Her three books (the ‘health trilogy’) have attracted significant media attention over the past five years and has shown why all the diet and fitness-based protocols, despite still being considered ‘best practice’, are unlikely to address the health crisis. Julia’s research has resulted in the development of a new low-effort, affordable, preventative health approach that is more sustainable. Her new book ‘Impossible Health’, to be published in 2025 will explore the uncomfortable question “is it now impossible for most individuals to sustain good health in modern society due to our evolutionary biology and the ’system’ we have created?”.
