In the world of biohacking, Barton Scott is a standout innovator. As the founder of Upgraded Formulas, Scott's journey into advanced nutrition, nutraceuticals, and biohacking was driven by necessity. Scott sat down with Tereza Hakobyan-Lolli on the Biohack Yourself Documentary to share his story. His biohacking journey began during the final year of his chemical engineering degree. Facing severe short-term memory loss and his mother’s declining health, he sought solutions. His wrestling background had given him a deep understanding of nutrition, but the stress from his studies highlighted the importance of mineral absorption and addressing deficiencies in key nutrients like magnesium.

“The first thing that you see go, through mineral deficiency, is memory," Scott said in the Biohack Yourself Documentary. “Maybe you can remember but it just takes you longer and then that gets worse and worse. My path has really been understanding the best ways to test and then ultimately coming up with new ways to get minerals to absorb in the body.”

This insight led to the creation of Upgraded Formulas, his company which uses cutting-edge nano-technology to enhance mineral absorption. By reducing particle sizes, minerals can enter cells directly, bypassing digestion for potent benefits. The name "Upgraded Formulas" came to Scott during a ski trip, symbolizing a modern, advanced approach to supplementation.

Central to Upgraded Formulas is their Hair Mineral Analysis (HMA) service. Unlike traditional blood tests, HMA uses hair samples to provide detailed insights into a person's mineral levels and heavy metal exposure, allowing for personalized supplement plans. Scott advocates regular testing every three months to adjust supplement plans as nutritional needs change, empowering individuals to take control of their health.

“We use the hair close to the scalp,” Scott said in the Biohack Yourself Documentary. “But an inch takes about six or eight weeks to grow, depending on the person, and that gives you an average.”

In the Biohack Yourself Documentary, Scott also highlighted the importance of addressing soil nutrient depletion, which has led to widespread deficiencies. “There's about 50% less nutrients in the soil than the topsoil in the last 80 to 100 years," he explained, emphasizing the need for effective supplementation through nutraceuticals and advanced mineral formulations.

Clinical trials on their "upgraded magnesium" supplement demonstrated remarkable health improvements, such as an 800% increase in deep sleep. This highlights the critical role of magnesium in cellular energy production and overall well-being. “It's key in making energy for every cell in the body that has mitochondria," Scott noted. Magnesium deficiency can impact numerous bodily functions, emphasizing the importance of proper supplementation.

Scott's approach extends to various aspects of health and wellness, including the impact on the gut microbiome and brain health. He mentioned that many people suffer from low stomach acid, leaky gut, and food intolerances, which hinder nutrient absorption. By providing highly absorbable minerals, Upgraded Formulas aims to rectify these issues and support optimal brain function. "Mineral absorption is crucial for maintaining healthy mitochondria and preventing oxidative stress," Scott emphasized.

During the documentary, Scott also touched on the importance of maintaining proper hormonal balance, which can be assessed through their detailed hair analysis. "We actually see your hormone balance between progesterone, estrogen, testosterone," he said, underscoring the comprehensive nature of their testing.

Using Upgraded Formulas is straightforward and affordable. Scott demonstrated this during the Biohack Yourself documentary, where he reviewed Tereza Hakobyan-Lolli's results live. Hakobyan-Lolli was keen to discover how a simple hair analysis could improve the health of both herself and her children, Love and Legend Lolli. The ease of use and accessibility of Upgraded Formulas’ testing and supplements make it a practical choice for families looking to optimize their health.

Scott also discussed the benefits of his products for different age groups, including children. "We actually look at hair analysis on infants. A couple of months old, they have just enough hair to sample," he explained, highlighting the potential to identify and address deficiencies early in life. This proactive approach can help prevent issues related to heavy metals and nutrient imbalances from a young age.

In summary, Barton Scott's work with Upgraded Formulas represents a significant advancement in the field of biohacking, anti-aging, and overall wellness. By focusing on mineral absorption, addressing soil nutrient depletion, and utilizing innovative testing methods like Hair Mineral Analysis, Scott is empowering individuals to take control of their health and well-being. Upgraded Formulas offers a comprehensive approach that includes nootropics, hormone balancing, and solutions for mitochondrial health, making it a leader in the biohacking community.
