In this fascinating conversation, Jack Dell’Accio shares the origin story of Essentia—a company born from personal need, driven by science, and grounded in performance. After watching family members react sensitively to toxins during cancer treatments, Jack set out to create a truly clean sleep environment. What started as a pursuit for organic, toxin-free materials eventually transformed into an obsession with optimizing REM and deep sleep through smart material design. The result? The first organic memory foam and a line of high-performance mattresses that naturally regulate temperature, reduce EMF exposure, and adapt in real-time to the sleeper’s physiological needs.

Jack and Christian dig deep into the latest evolution: the Dave Asprey Upgrade, launching at the Biohacking Conference. This new mattress model integrates graphene-enhanced EMF protection and quartz-infused latex, creating a natural dominant frequency that harmonizes with the body—without using electronics. Jack explains how this subtle but powerful technology helps eliminate erratic biological responses to EMF exposure, something verified through blood microscopy. He also unpacks how the bed’s natural materials allow for true thermal regulation without stimulating the nervous system like cold plunges or electric cooling pads.

What makes this bed even more unique is its real-time adaptability to hormonal and temperature fluctuations, especially for women. Jack shares compelling insights from his research into women’s sleep cycles, revealing how mold, toxins, and EMFs all act as endocrine disruptors. The updated mattress not only addresses those concerns, but its organic materials and essential oils even suppress mold growth at the source—without synthetic chemicals or metal fibers. For women experiencing hormonal changes or night sweats, this could be a game-changer in achieving deep, uninterrupted sleep.

As a testament to the innovation, Essentia is launching a new sleep study with attendees from the Biohacking Conference to track improvements in REM and deep sleep using the upgraded mattress. With a newly announced U.S. manufacturing facility opening in Boca Raton, Florida, Essentia is set to bring clean, clinical-grade sleep technology to even more homes—proving that a mattress isn't just about comfort anymore. It's a health tool, a recovery system, and a foundational piece of your longevity strategy.
