Dr. Chris Rhodes PhD
Dr. Chris Rhodes, PhD is a leading scientist, entrepreneur, and expert in nutritional biology, fasting science, biomimetics, and healthy aging. He earned his PhD in Nutritional Biology from University of California, Davis, where his groundbreaking research focused on the biological mechanisms behind fasting and longevity.
After eight years of rigorous clinical fasting research, Dr. Rhodes identified key bioactive compounds naturally elevated during fasting — including nicotinamide, spermidine, PEA, and OEA — that play a critical role in reducing inflammation, combating oxidative stress, and supporting metabolic, cardiovascular, and cellular health. His discoveries led to the development of Mimio, the world’s first fasting mimetic supplement, designed to replicate many of the biological benefits associated with prolonged fasting.
Built on human clinical research and biomimetic science, Mimio delivers targeted fasting-associated molecules that support cellular health, metabolic function, longevity, and healthspan optimization — without requiring extreme dietary changes or extended fasting protocols. The technology is backed by multiple clinical studies, including human research published in the scientific journal Nature, helping position Mimio at the forefront of next-generation longevity innovation.
As CEO and scientific founder of Mimio Health
, Dr. Rhodes continues advancing the field of biomimetics, developing cutting-edge solutions designed to mimic the benefits of fasting, exercise, sleep optimization, cold exposure, and other longevity-supportive stressors through science-driven nutrition and supplementation.
At Hack Your Health 2026, Dr. Chris Rhodes will share groundbreaking insights into fasting biology, cellular resilience, metabolic optimization, and the future of biomimetic longevity science.
