The Metabolic Roadmap: https://roadmap.medgeeks.co/ Seed oils may be the most polarized topic in nutrition. One side calls them a primary driver of inflammation, obesity, mitochondrial dysfunction, and chronic disease. The other points to lower LDL and observational data linking higher linoleic acid levels to better cardiovascular outcomes. So are they harmful? Are they safe? Or is the answer more…
Take the free Metabolic Capacity Assessment: https://medgeeks.co/get-started/metabolic-health/ Work with me: https://medgeeks.co/consult/work-with-me/ Food is more than calories and macros. It supplies the signals and raw materials your body needs to function, repair, and recover. Here are 10 practical nutrition principles for better metabolic health, body composition, and long-term resilience.
Free Metabolic Capacity Assessment 👉 https://medgeeks.co/get-started/metabolic-health/ Body Composition Workshop 👉 https://medgeeks.co/workshops/90-day-fat-loss/ I stopped doing cardio and lost 50 pounds. It turned out cardio was never necessary to lose fat or change my body composition. In this podcast, I break down why you don't need cardio for fat loss, and the two things you should focus on…
Pro bono mitochondrial disease health coaching: https://medgeeks.co/consult/primary-mitochondrial-disease/ Free metabolic capacity assessment: https://medgeeks.co/get-started/metabolic-health/ We've been looking at chronic disease all wrong. In this video, I distill years of metabolic research into 20 minutes. You'll learn why conditions that look unrelated often share the same root, why your labs…
Free metabolic capacity assessment: https://medgeeks.co/get-started/metabolic-health/ Waitlist to work with me: https://medgeeks.co/consult/work-with-me/ A water-only fast can quietly burn through your own muscle. The fix is a hybrid between the fasting mimicking diet and a protein-sparing modified fast (PSMF). In this podcast I walk through the exact protocol plus the results from my own…
Learn more about working with me and join the waitlist: https://medgeeks.co/consult/work-with-me/ You're probably already doing more than you need. You eat clean. You try to exercise or at least move throughout the day. You try to get good sleep. Maybe you've even tried tracking your food, tried fasting, tried keto, or even tried a GLP-1. But here's what almost nobody tells you. The answer isn't…
Free metabolic capacity assessment: https://medgeeks.co/get-started/metabolic-health/ Waitlist to work with me: https://medgeeks.co/consult/work-with-me/ Why do we get tired? The afternoon crash usually isn't sleep, age, or laziness. It comes down to your metabolic capacity: your body's ability to produce energy, manage it, and recover from the demands placed on you. In this video, I break down…
My cardiologist ran a full cardiac workup (MRI, stress test, ambulatory ECG, labs) and told me I was perfectly healthy. I was 40 lbs overweight, insulin-resistant, nutritionally deficient, and running on 2–4 hours of sleep. Everything was "normal." Nothing was fine. ▶ FREE email course: the exact steps I used to go from dysfunction toward resilient health (no cost, straight to your inbox):…
I tested ProLon, the fasting-mimicking diet, against a 5-day sardine fast, ran my own bloodwork, and got the opposite result I expected. ProLon is the best-known version of the fasting-mimicking diet (FMD), a 5-day, low-calorie, plant-based protocol developed from Dr. Valter Longo's research at USC. The sardine fast is the cheap, unbranded version people keep hyping online. Free course (resilient…
When my daughter was six months old, her platelet count dropped to 2,000. Over the next two years she was diagnosed with a mitochondrial disease (MELAS), lupus, and immune thrombocytopenia (ITP), and was seen by nine different specialists. Not one of them connected those findings to each other. Free course (resilient health): https://medgeeks.co/get-started/metabolic-health/ This is the story of…
