Some people try to make their bodies and brains better. They call this biohacking. They make small changes in food, sleep, and exercise. In the past, only rich people and top sports stars do this. Now many people try it.
One family talks about biohacking on the internet. They say that they start because of health problems. They use tests and short electric exercises. A doctor in New York opens centers for this work. Many people go there.
Some experts say that this idea has risks. Nobody really knows if biohacking works. But many people believe it and want to live a long life.
Difficult words: brain (the organ inside your head which helps you think and feel), exercise (physical activity), risk (a chance that something bad may happen).
You can watch the original video in the Level 3 section.
