The Spark Factor

The Secret to Supercharging Energy, Becoming Resilient, and Feeling Better Than Ever

By: Molly Maloof

Narrated by: Molly Maloof, Mark Jacobson

Foreword by Dave Asprey

A breakthrough program for women to revive their lost energy and vitality, developed by a leading biohacker and physician

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 right lifestyle inputs, we glow with energy; but when the demands on our bodies exceed our capacity—as is true for so many of us—we become burned out, mentally and physically.

Now, in The Spark Factor, Dr. Molly Maloof shares a program uniquely tailored to the biology of women—a plan that targets the mitochondria, the power source of the cells. As Dr. Maloof shows, the intense, all-or-nothing approaches commonly used by biohackers to optimize health—including sustained fasting, ultra-low-carb diets, and intense training—can be harmful, especially for women, because they create excessive stress in an already-stressed body, which can make us tired, weak, and prone to illness.

Dr. Maloof’s innovative program—which has been used successfully by her patients—offers lifestyle changes that target the unique biology 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 give ourselves the resources to become more connected, nourished, safe, and strong—at both the micro- and the macro-level.

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

Bible of biohacking

Everything Dr Maloof talks about, all aspects of life that contribute to our real health, nutrition, exercise, sleep, community this is how I picture ideal heath and I’m so glad to find a role model like her to follow and to feel that I’m not the only one with this view of the world.

The Spark Factor: Next-Level Goodness a Timely Blessing

Love this book! Dr. Molly flexes her Next-Level understanding of optimized health. While the book is the first bio-hacking book written for women (About time), it is for everyone. We love our mothers, G-mas, sisters and daughters and want them to sparkle as brightly as possible. Mitochondria: Wow! Dr. Molly is part of inspired movement telling a new, more expansive story in real-time inviting us to rethink all previously set limitations.

She shares hundreds of actionable tips and strategies in a non-dogmatic fashion supported by science. Highly recommended! And so gosh darn glad she read the audiobook too :)

Dr. Molly, thank you for writing a book geared towards women! Keep up the amazing work!

The complete guide to living the greatest life

As we age, pain may feel like a non-negotiable. I can tell you from personal experience it is not. I have been biohacking my own health for the past two years due to back pain, nerve issues and menopausal issues like constipation energy and sleep and through using an Apple Watch and a CGM, cutting out alcohol and learning how to eat for stable blood sugar, All of my health issues are resolving slowly but surely. I’m 58 with no meds despite family history of high cholesterol and blood pressure.

This book sums up everything I’ve been doing and provided even more ideas for me to take it to the next level. Dr Molly explains the science behind health and makes it possible to take our health into our own hands with practical actionable steps that WILL get results!

So great. I will be referring back to all my notes as I coax my body into its fullest functioning version and live the long healthy active life of my dreams!

Female Biohacking Rocks!

This was such an inspirational book. I especially loved the female biohacking focus, and helped me to want to better understand my cycle. Thank you Dr. Molly!!

Secret to the Spark of Life

Excellent book to reviewing your lifestyle and biohacking concepts. Molly is enjoyable to listen to and dives into what makes the spark for life. This book is a must listen listen too!

This is like reading 20 other great books

Guys perspective here -- I listened to this book to see if it was worth recommending to my girlfriend and my sisters, they all read (or listen to) a lot less books than I do. I've seriously gone through 2,000+ audiobooks in the last 20 years and this book covers all the essential health information that every woman should know.

Now I can recommend just this book rather than 10 or 20 other books. Excellent work Molly Maloof!

20 Books In One Palpable Guide

Powerhouse book geared specifically for women’s genetics and hormones. I’ve been guided by men biohackers and I’ve been doing a lot of things incorrectly. This book was outstanding.
