Foreword by Dave Aspery

Developed by a forward-thinking Stanford faculty member and top concierge doctor, a proven, breakthrough approach to biohacking that empowers women to reclaim their health and revive their vital spark.

Inside of you, there is a spark—it’s what animates you, and without it, you could not live. This energy creation isn’t mystical, nor is it spiritual; it is science. We know from research that our cellular machinery transforms the food we eat and the air we breathe into the electricity that fuels us. With the proper diet we are glowing and energetic; when we our demands exceed our capacity we are drained and exhausted.

Building on this knowledge, Dr. Molly Maloof has created a biohacking program uniquely tailored to women—a plan that goes deep into the body, targeting the mitochondria, the source of all cellular life—to help them tap into their inner spark and regain their vitality. As Dr. Maloof shows, the intense, all-or-nothing approach commonly used to optimize health—including extreme fasting, too much carb restriction, and overtraining—is harmful, creating stress in the body. Instead of boosting energy and longevity, these old biohacking methods make us tired and weak and can shorten our lives.

Dr. Maloof’s essential program—which has been used successfully with her clients in Los Angeles and San Francisco—offers lifestyle changes that target the cellular needs of women and provide immediate and long-term benefits. Instead of denying our bodies, we need to listen to what they are telling us. Once we become aware of our physical needs, we can work towards providing ourselves with the resources to become more connected, nourished, safe, and strong—at both the micro- and the macro-level.

With cutting-edge biohacking technologies, strategies for stress management, and personalized nutrition, The Spark Factor is the book women have been waiting for to help them rediscover their spark and achieve lasting health.
