Most clients that come and see me are considered 'treatment-resistant' or a 'medical mystery'. They have complex/chronic illnesses for which nothing work or can't lose weight no matter what they try. Spoiler alert: its never a mystery.
And, in 80% of cases, it is mitochondrial hypoxia, aka the 'Everest Effect'.
This is a self-perpetuating cycle that sees your mitochondria starving for oxygen while your body responding exactly as it has evolved to do when halfway up a mountain, only without the resources needed to ever restore balance.
