Here’s more about Todd Vande Hei:


I once believed I was destined for a life of sickness.


In my early 30s, seizures, high blood pressure, and atrial fibrillation were my constant companions. At a time when I should have been enjoying the relative freedom and ease of youth, I had instead resigned myself to the limitations brought about by illness. In a word, I was stuck… and I stayed that way until I reached a key realization:


Health isn't something you're born with—it's a skill you can master.


I’m Todd Vande Hei, and for the past 15 years, I've been on a relentless journey to crack the practices behind peak health. Through countless experiments, setbacks, and breakthroughs, I've discovered that true health isn't about fad diets, miracle products, or trending tips... It's about mastering the foundations of lifestyle, exercise, nutrition, and stress management.


As the founder of Stark Health, I have made it my mission to share what I've learned with the people who would benefit from it most. Together with my team of 80+ medical experts–including doctors, nutritionists, and fitness coaches–I help high-achieving professionals revolutionize their health and empower them to perform at their peak in both life and business. Our methods are backed by over a decade of clinical experience and millions of data points. We’ve seen transformations that defy conventional wisdom–like the fact that at 56 years old, I’m healthier, happier, and more vibrant now than I was at 25.


Whether you're battling chronic issues, seeking sustainable weight loss, or simply want to thrive at every stage and age of life, I'm here to show you that peak health is not just possible—it's within your reach.


Follow me here and check out my podcast–”Health is a Skill with Todd Vande Hei”, out every Thursday–for strategic, action-based insights into how to start challenging your own status quo.


Company description: Stark is a fully-integrated team of specialists helping you look amazing, move more freely & think more clearly.
