We don’t have a healthcare system; we have a sick care system. Despite all the medical advances, life expectancy in America is declining, and chronic disease is rising. Our health is created outside the doctor’s office, and our food systems and sedentary lives are not helping. We need a new way to manage and optimize our health. This new way looks like better access to lab tests, more informed lifestyle choices, and a better understanding of what’s going on inside our bodies. The best first step is to measure where you’re at. As they say, what gets measured gets managed. This new way to measure and manage your health is Function Health — a company I co-founded. It starts with 100+ lab tests & insights from experts in heart, hormones, nutrients, toxins, and more. No insurance involved. No hidden bills.

This should be posted on every billboard in America. Instead of making money off sick people we should be trying to prevent people from getting sick in the first place. And if they do happen to get sick we should cure them for good by understanding the root cause of what ails them, not just treating their symptoms indefinitely...

I couldn't agree more that we are a sick care nation. Have a heart attack that likely could have been prevented. Have procedure. Go home on toxic meds. Never address the root of why you got the heart attack in the first place, and how to prevent the next one. End up sicker with co-morbities. Back in the hospital. Fix that with more meds. The sick cycle continues. What you are doing in Lifestyle- Functional-Root Medicine is critically valuable. It must be our future direction.

Measuring key biomarkers is so important to the NEW world of preventative healthcare, I believe knowing your #biologicalage based on your tests is vital to motivate and make people really change their behaviour towards - exercise, nutrition, mind and recovery.

Function Health is one of the best medical companies out there. I recommend them to all the doctors I teach.

One solution to this should be - Awareness of the Healthy lifestyle, And - Easy and wide access to it. Health starts from what we eat, when we eat, how we sleep, how much we work... We need a society that understands the importance of healthy living. and a new way to manage and optimize our health: 1. Personalized Health Monitoring Wearable Devices: Smartwatches and fitness trackers can monitor vital signs like heart rate, sleep patterns, and physical activity in real time. Continuous Glucose Monitors (CGMs): For individuals with diabetes or those interested in tracking their blood sugar levels, CGMs offer real-time data. 2. AI-Driven Health Insights Predictive Analytics: AI algorithms can analyze data from your wearable devices, medical records, and lifestyle inputs to predict potential health issues before they become serious. Personal Health Assistants: AI-powered apps can offer tailored advice on diet, exercise, and mental well-being. 3. Integration with Healthcare Providers Data Sharing with Doctors: The ability to share your health data from wearables and apps directly with your healthcare provider ensures that your doctor has a comprehensive view of your health, leading to more personalized and effective care.
Building a legacy of meaningful impact on people, and their health.
2moMy least favorite, yet all too common line… “When we were young, we ate X and drank Y every day, and we turned out just fine!” We are not fine. The health of America is not fine. We can get there, but not until we first understand where we are starting. I can say I’ve been so personally impressed with the Function Health experience. So much runway to build it out further. Keep going!
