Welcome to Ben Greenfield's Weekly Roundup!
In this weekly post, I share with you my most interesting discoveries of the week, including the latest news on the fronts of fitness, nutrition, health, wellness, biohacking, and anti-aging research. I also recap my upcoming events and special announcements so you can keep up with opportunities to learn, giveaways, discounts, and more!
Show Your Dad The Biohacking Love This Sunday With My Official Father's Day Gift Guide
Even if you've already got some gifts for dad, the discounts in this guide last until Sunday so you're gonna want to give it a once-over before these awesome deals expire.
After all, nothing says I love you like getting your dad cool stuff, right?
I’m joking, of course. All your father truly needs is time, love, and presence, just like any cherished human being, including you.
But it certainly is a head-nod to your father’s greatness to hook him up with a few cool tools that he can use to look more muscular and ripped in that ugly sweater your sibling bought him for Father's Day; drop a few pounds without him having to chew on pure cardboard cereal; and fix up his “Here, hold my beer” injuries in no time flat using scientifically proven biohacking technologies that will make all aspects of your dad’s life better, and his friends super jealous.
So based on all that, I’ve compiled a handy Father's Day gift guide that has all the healthy and active lifestyle stuff your siblings probably don’t know about and probably won’t get your dad.
From discounted luxury ice baths, to electrolytes and ketones that also work damn well in a margarita, or a surprisingly effective substitute for his favorite beer, to a biofeedback-based stress monitoring device he can use the next time your mom gives him a weekend to-do list – I’ve got it all here, and more…
Because what says “I love you” like turning your father's Dad-Bod into Mr. Incredible? And because price should never stop you from celebrating, I've designed this guide for all budgets. Whether you're getting dad the biggest gift he'll receive this year, or just need effective and affordable tools to help him sleep, de-stress, and get fit, I've got you covered.
Get all the Father's Day toys, tools, and treats your dad could ever want, all with staggering holiday discounts, right here).
The World's Most Profound Parenting Wisdom, Now Available In Your Ears
While gifts and gratitude are great, the most celebratory part of Father's Day is the incredible experience of being a dad and learning how to be an even better one.
This is why I've set out to make it easier for you. As you may know, in February of this year I released Boundless Parenting: a labor of love made up of interviews with some of the most incredible parents on the planet and their combined wisdom.
This book is designed to be a guide to, well, guiding your child in a world where navigating the act of raising a family has become a lost art.
The interviews in Boundless Parenting range from Bryan Johnson of Blueprint to my friends Dr. Dan and Merily Pompa, and many, many more. The text is chock full of all sorts of tools and tactics, from teaching your kids how to fast (and when it would be appropriate) to the ways Jessa and I have invested in the Greenfield family legacy. It has everything you need to go from lost-puppy-without-a-clue to grade-A super parent, and also has plenty of wisdom and actionable information for well-seasoned parents.
Now Boundless Parenting is available as the ultimate audio experience, as each chapter's narration comes not just from me and my wife Jessa, but also from each contributing parent's voice.
That’s right, you get to hear each parent read their chapter from their own perspective, making this audiobook come to life.
The parents, including my very own mom, my dad, myself, my wife, and many other models of practical parenting wisdom, delve into the fascinating realms of education, discipline, parenting, legacy, and so much more with specifics like:
- The best methods for developing lifelong immunity, cellular resilience, mental toughness, and overall health in a child
- How to manage your time, deal with overwhelm, care for yourself, and maintain high levels of productivity and health while raising children
- Family mission statements to family brands, traditions, and routines that foster pride and a strong identity in children
- Parents like Naveen Jain reveal how anyone can start a non-profit for their child for generational wealth building
- The crazy, controversial primal secrets of “tiger dad” parents like The Liver King and Joe Desena
- Lenore Skenazy on why she's America's Worst Mom (and why you should be too!)
- Joseph Anew and Emilia Run's advice on respectful parenting, slowing down, and controversial topics like co-sleeping
- Angie Fletcher on the intriguing traditions she began with her oldest child as a single, divorced mother
- My own parents Gary and Pat Greenfield on how they raised me and my 4 siblings to approach the world in a far different, outside-the-box way compared to other kids
- And much more!
I’ve even included a sneak peek just for you in a podcast I recorded last week, so you can start learning right here, right now!
Listen to me go over my love and logic parenting philosophy, how Boundless Parenting came to be, and other sections directly from the book.
Because parenting isn’t something you have to do alone. Remember the saying “It takes a village”?
Let my book and the incredible parents in it be your village. Check out the audiobook release of Boundless Parenting here.

Articles & Podcasts I Was Featured In Recently:
Conscious Fatherhood: Building A Better Family by Natural Awakenings
“What they see you doing is more important than the advice you give them. At the end of the day, kids just want to be seen and loved and heard.”
This is a short quote I said when interviewed for an article I was recently featured on by Natural Awakenings called Conscious Fatherhood.
I alongside Ned Schaut, author of The Adventure of Fatherhood, and Chris Smith, founder of The Campfire Effect, were interviewed for this piece on how to be a good father.
The article discusses how to:
- Define values
- Set priorities
- Discipline with love
Fatherhood, and by extension parenthood, is not easy. Heck, I'd say it's the most difficult yet rewarding adventure of your life, which is why I wrote Boundless Parenting. You can never prepare or improve too much when it comes to being a Dad, so whether you're already a father or simply aspire to be someday, this article will be valuable for you.

Product Of The Week
::: Get 15% Off A Potent “Zombie” Cell Removal Supplement :::
Zombies don’t exist, but zombie cells do, and yours are making you lose energy and age faster.
As you get older, your body accumulates senescent, or “zombie,” cells.
These cells no longer function properly, resulting in slower recovery from workouts, greater aches and pains, and the generally worse feelings of wear and tear attributed to aging.
I don't know about you, but I want to feel as youthful as possible for as long as possible, so I can keep having fun, successfully run my business, and keep up with my twin boys as they grow up.
And now my friends over at Neurohacker Collective have given you and me a way to do just that.
Qualia Senolytic is designed to nuke your zombie cells and make room for new, youthful, healthy cells.
The formula is packed with the nine most well-researched senolytes (compounds that help remove senescent cells), including:
- Fisetin
- Quercefit quercetin phytosome
- Longvida optimized curcumin extract
- Olive leaf extract
- Soybean seed extract
- Luteolin
- Milk thistle seed extract
- Piperlongumine
- Senactiv (panax notoginseng root extract and rosa roxburghii fruit extract)
With the doses carefully formulated, this combination of senolytic compounds allows you to wipe out zombie cells from your body using a few pills, twice a month.
You’d think this would be too little for any noticeable effect, but I experienced improved energy levels immediately after my first round of Qualia Senolytic, and continue to feel benefits each month I continue using it.
Plus, if for some reason you don't like your results, Neurohacker Collective will give you a full refund if you contact them within the first thirty days.
And if that weren't enough for ya, Neurohacker Collective has generously offered you 15% off if you use code SENOBEN at checkout.

Asking A Quick Favor About My New Book Boundless Parenting: Tools, Tactics & Habits of Great Parents.
I just wanted to quickly thank all of you who ordered a copy of my book, Boundless Parenting: Tools, Tactics & Habits of Great Parents.
After two years of interviewing some of the top parents on the planet…
…. from crazy macho Alpha dads like the controversial “Liver King” and Spartan race founder Joe DeSena…
…to peaceful backwoods, unschooling, off-grid gardeners, and homemakers (including my children’s wilderness survival instructors and my own wife Jessa)…
…to outside-the-box thinking fitness icons like Kelly and Juliet Starrett, Paul Chek, and the Vega “Fat Fueled Family”…
…to a host of other entrepreneurs, billionaires, single moms, and dads, my own dear parents, pastors, education experts, legacy builders, wealth managers, and many others who have created impactful, happy, and resilient children…
…I’ve finally put the finishing touches on a 600+ page parenting book that is the most comprehensive parenting book that exists. It’s like the blueprint for raising a human.
If Boundless Parenting does make even the smallest impact on your life, I would love it if you could help me spread the word far and wide, by:
- Leaving a review on Amazon
- Sharing the book on social media and tagging me (@bengreenfieldfitness)
- Buying a copy for your friends and family
Thanks again for all your support!

Ben Greenfield
