In a world where 88% of American adults exhibit signs of metabolic dysfunction[^1], understanding the foundations of cellular energy and metabolic health has never been more crucial. This isn't just about weight or blood sugar—it's about how every cell in your body produces and uses energy, affecting everything from your cognitive function to your reproductive health.

In the midst of unprecedented medical advances and skyrocketing healthcare spending, Americans are paradoxically sicker than ever. While we spend more on healthcare than any other nation—nearly $4.3 trillion in 2021, or about $12,900 per person[^1], we're witnessing alarming increases in nearly every major chronic disease. At the root of this crisis lies a fundamental breakdown in our cellular metabolism, creating a perfect storm of dysfunction that feeds into our most devastating diseases.
