TARGETING THE FOUR
"HORSEMEN OF DEATH & CHRONIC DISEASE"
+
BACKED BY THE "MEDICINE 3.0" MENTALITY
ATHEROSCLEROTIC DISEASE
#1 Cause of Death in the United States....
Atherosclerotic disease, often simply called heart disease, involves the buildup of fatty deposits called plaques in the walls of arteries. This buildup can lead to narrowed arteries, reducing blood flow and increasing the risk of blood clots. These blockages can cause heart attacks, strokes, and other cardiovascular complications. It's a slow, progressive disease often linked to lifestyle factors such as diet, exercise, and smoking.
​
-
Cardiovascular disease (CVD), primarily driven by atherosclerosis, is the number one cause of death globally, claiming an estimated 17.9 million lives each year according to the World Health Organization.
-
Nearly one in every four deaths in the United States is due to heart disease, making it the leading cause of death for both men and women, as reported by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
-
Studies have shown that by 2035, more than 130 million adults in the U.S. are projected to have some form of cardiovascular disease, dramatically increasing healthcare costs.

CANCER
#1 Cause of Death in the United States....
Cancer is intrinsically linked to metabolic changes and cellular dysfunction, where cells no longer respond normally to growth controls and begin to proliferate uncontrollably. These changes can often be influenced by lifestyle factors such as diet, physical activity, and exposure to toxins, which means that cancer prevention can be actionable. By adopting healthier lifestyle choices and managing environmental risks, individuals can significantly reduce their risk of developing cancer. This proactive approach emphasizes the importance of understanding and modifying the metabolic and cellular pathways that can lead to cancer, offering a tangible strategy for cancer prevention.
-
According to the World Health Organization, cancer is the second leading cause of death globally and was responsible for an estimated 9.7 million deaths in 2023.
-
Approximately 1 in 6 deaths worldwide is due to cancer, making it a major barrier to increasing life expectancy in every country of the world.
-
The American Cancer Society estimates that in the United States, there will be over 2 million new cancer cases diagnosed and 611,000 cancer deaths in 2024.
2
NEURODEGENERATIVE DISEASE
Neurodegenerative diseases are conditions where neurons in the brain progressively lose function and die, leading to worsening symptoms over time, such as memory loss and impaired movement.
Common examples include Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, and ALS. Notably, Alzheimer's disease is increasingly referred to as "Type 3 diabetes," a term that highlights its possible link with insulin resistance in the brain, affecting brain cells' ability to utilize glucose and leading to energy deficits.
​
-
Alzheimer's affects approximately 6.2 million Americans, with numbers expected to nearly triple by 2050.
-
Over 10 million people globally suffer from Parkinson's disease.
-
Dementia, primarily due to Alzheimer's, is the seventh leading cause of death worldwide.
Importantly, there are many actionable interventions available that can help slow or prevent these illnesses. These include lifestyle modifications such as improved diet, regular physical exercise, cognitive training, and proper management of metabolic and vascular health factors. Early detection and personalized treatment plans also play crucial roles in managing the progression of neurodegenerative diseases. These strategies underscore the potential for significantly altering the course of these debilitating conditions. altering the course of these debilitating conditions.
3
METABOLIC DISEASE/ METABOLIC SYNDROME
Metabolic disease, often known as metabolic syndrome, is a cluster of conditions that together increase the risk of heart disease, stroke, and type 2 diabetes. These conditions include increased blood pressure, high blood sugar, excess body fat around the waist, and abnormal cholesterol or triglyceride levels. Not everyone with one of these conditions has metabolic syndrome, but having multiple factors raises the risk considerably. Here are some startling statistics regarding metabolic syndrome:
​
-
About 34% of American adults have metabolic syndrome, according to the American Heart Association.
-
The prevalence of metabolic syndrome notably increases with age, affecting over 40% of those over 60.
-
A striking statistic indicates that nearly 93% of Americans are considered metabolically unhealthy, showcasing a widespread issue linked with lifestyle factors like diet and physical inactivity.
These statistics highlight the critical public health challenge posed by metabolic syndrome and underscore the importance of proactive lifestyle changes to mitigate associated health risks. Early intervention, such as adopting healthier eating habits and increasing physical activity, can significantly impact managing or even reversing metabolic syndrome.

WHAT IS WHOLE-PERSON HEALTH COACHING?
Whole person health coaching is a holistic strategy that enhances overall wellness by focusing on seven key pillars: emotional, intellectual, physical body, social, environmental, financial, and spiritual. This approach prioritizes identifying and addressing root causes through functional assessments, moving away from quick fixes like the traditional "pill for an ill" mentality. We advocate for lifestyle changes before turning to pharmaceuticals. Embracing health ownership is a significant commitment, requiring a specific mindset, motivation, and dedication. With rapid advancements in health technologies, being informed is crucial. We are here to guide you every step of the way.
WHAT ARE FUNCTIONAL ASSESSMENTS AND ROOT-CAUSE?
In whole person health coaching, functional assessments are comprehensive evaluations aimed at uncovering how different bodily systems are functioning and interrelating. These assessments delve deep to find the root cause of health issues, which refers to the fundamental underlying factors causing symptoms, rather than merely addressing the symptoms themselves. Understanding root causes is critical for creating effective, personalized treatment plans. It’s also important to recognize that being symptom-free doesn’t mean no health work is needed. Adopting a proactive lifestyle is essential to maintaining well-being and preventing chronic diseases, helping you stay in control of your health long before issues become apparent.
