In this powerful conversation, Dr. Anayanci Masís-Vargas shares her journey from empathic hospital work and motherhood burnout to founding her own company in 2024, where she helps others navigate the mind-body-gut connection and emotional intelligence around food. Drawing from personal experiences with ketosis, gestational diabetes, and the dangers of restrictive dieting, she highlights the importance of biological flexibility, self-awareness, and mental health in achieving long-term wellness. Dr. Masís-Vargas emphasizes that not all carbs are the same, food is often treated like a socially accepted drug, and true biohacking begins with getting your mindset right. Her insights blend science, lived experience, and practical advice, reminding listeners that there are no excuses when it comes to prioritizing health.

With a PhD from Université de Strasbourg and Universiteit van Amsterdam, she has researched the profound connections between brain function, metabolism, and eating behavior. Her groundbreaking work on how artificial light at night affects glucose metabolism and food cravings has been published in leading journals and featured in international media.

Her Four Intelligence approach (Nutritional IQ, Emotional EQ, Social SQ, and Adaptive AQ) empowers people to transform their relationship with food without shame, restriction, or dependency on experts.

Ana creates courses, children's books, and educational resources designed to give families the tools to thrive.
