The incidence of chronic diseases, notably cancer, is on the rise, posing a growing health burden globally. According to the American Cancer Society, the likelihood of being diagnosed with cancer has increased, with men having a 39.7% probability and women a 37.6% probability in their lifetime as of 2018. Lung, prostate, and colorectal cancers rank among the leading causes of cancer-related deaths in men, while lung, breast, and colorectal cancers are predominant among women. In the United States alone, the National Cancer Institute reported 1,688,780 new cancer cases and 600,920 cancer-related deaths in 2017. The prevalence of chronic diseases extends beyond cancer, as indicated by the World Health Organization's data from 2015, revealing that out of 36.7 million individuals with HIV, 2.7 million had chronic hepatitis B virus (HVB) infection, and 2.3 million were infected with hepatitis C virus (HCV). Furthermore, cardiovascular diseases claimed the lives of an estimated 17.9 million people in 2016, representing 31% of global deaths, with 85% attributed to heart attacks and strokes. The escalating prevalence of chronic diseases has prompted a heightened focus on health and fitness, propelling an increased interest in biohacking. As individuals become more health-conscious due to the growing impact of chronic conditions, the biohacking market experiences a surge in growth. This trend is indicative of a broader shift toward proactive health management and a desire for personalized approaches to well-being. The alarming statistics related to chronic diseases underscore the urgency for innovative solutions, driving individuals to explore biohacking as a means of enhancing their overall health and wellness. Biohacking, with its emphasis on self-directed approaches to biology, represents a response to the pressing need for strategies that go beyond conventional healthcare in addressing the challenges posed by chronic illnesses. As the prevalence of such conditions continues to rise, the biohacking market is poised to play a pivotal role in shaping the future of health and wellness.
