The phrase “sick fat” sounds like something from a fitness infomercial, but in reality, it’s a critical concept in metabolic science. It describes adiposopathy—the dysfunctional state of your body’s fat cells. The way our body stores excess energy isn’t random. There’s a set hierarchy, and when that system is overwhelmed, it triggers a domino effect…
As spring settles into Kirkland and Bellevue, there’s often a noticeable shift, not just outside but inside local gyms too. The days grow a little longer, the air softens, and more people return from their winter slow-downs with new energy. That energy shows up inside the gym. Sometimes the same workouts just feel different in…
Recent breakthroughs in metabolic research are reframing Alzheimer’s disease. Rather than a mysterious buildup of toxic debris, new evidence suggests the condition is driven by a systems-level energy failure. At the center of this failure is the depletion of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+), a coenzyme essential for mitochondrial function, DNA repair, and cellular resilience. The…
Have you ever wondered why you feel stiff as a board in the morning, but then feel supple and energized after a short, intense workout? It’s not just about blood flow. Science suggests we are bioelectric beings—specifically, piezoelectric beings. Your body is a network of living, self-charging batteries, and the “wiring” that connects it all…
As early spring reaches Bellevue and Kirkland, we often feel the pull to get things going again. The days are longer, the chill has started to lift, and many of us look for ways to shake off the last of the winter slowdown. It’s a season that naturally calls for clearer thinking and renewed effort.…
The long-standing cultural narrative that a glass of red wine or a moderate amount of alcohol is “heart-healthy” or protective for the brain is being systematically dismantled by modern science. Recent large-scale studies, including landmark research from Oxford and the World Health Organization, are clear: there is no safe threshold for alcohol consumption when it…
