During this 45-minute consultation we’ll take a deep dive into critical areas of your metabolism and understand what is out of balance.

From gut health and hormone function to adrenal health and blood sugar regulation, even a small imbalance in any of these (or other) areas can lead to poor health in the future and diminished longevity…but the sad fact is that a large majority of people over 40 have multiple imbalances in multiple areas of their metabolism…

The key is to identify and address these swiftly, so that you can thrive for decades to come without worrying that “something’s brewing under the surface.”

chrisyzen
Hey, it's Christian, you're enough. Thanks for tuning into the podcast again. Today, I want to talk to you about what I believe is the absolute best decision you can make for your health right now, for your current health, midterm health, long-term health, the absolute best decision that you can make. And that is And I'm serious about this. I genuinely believe that of people listening to this, this would be the absolute best decision that they would make in their entire life for their health. I genuinely believe this and that is to consider

Introducing the Live Longer Formula

00:00:55
chrisyzen
having a chat with me a free 45 minute metabolic function assessment session where we can go over any areas of your health that you're currently not satisfied with and we can get to the root causes basically and make a plan for you and if if and only if we both feel like that is that we're a good fit to work together um Then the the the best thing for you to do then would be to join my new health coaching program, my new signature coaching program called the Live Longer Formula. And when I say it's new, it's I'm moving to a group coaching model for
00:01:43
chrisyzen
all future clients that I enroll into my programs and just so that I can basically impact more lives, help more people. And this is basically the combination of at this point tens of thousands of hours of um my research into health, health optimization, natural medicine, ah biohacking, you know clinical experience with clients, helping clients resolve complex chronic health problems of all kinds from autoimmune to gut problems to neurological issues, hypothyroidism, and a few quite a few different ones in between. And what I've done over the years, ah I've learned a lot of different things. I've figured out how to distill it down to the most fundamental things that will move the needle the most for a person without a lot of
00:02:39
chrisyzen
complexity. This is what I've tried to really hard to do away with is a lot of the complexity so that it is as simple and as easy as possible for a person to get started.

The Importance of Early Health Detection

00:02:53
chrisyzen
So with this ah episode I just want to go over the program in a little bit more depth because like I said ah I believe for most people just I just know how most people are in terms of diet environment at home supplementation in terms of waiting waiting too long for imbalances to actually become symptoms before they do something about it I can see how people operate this is why I so strongly believe that this is going to be the best decision someone can make because with
00:03:29
chrisyzen
my help and guidance we can identify imbalances to today you know in the the near future that could one day in 5, 10, 20, 15, 30 years down the line snowball into genuine health problems like really serious stuff so this is kind of the beauty of my approach is we catch a lot of these things early we implement small little changes that over time they they themselves snowball into really nice

Program Details & Benefits

00:03:57
chrisyzen
habits, right? So it's a very much a step-by-step approach that you're tweaking course ah a degree or two here and there and then over the in the grand scheme of things over this entire health journey a person has their entire life that small course correction now could lead them to much better destinations. This is kind of the this is what it's all about, right? So
00:04:21
chrisyzen
The Live Longer formula is a personalized health coaching program, right? So we don't do cookie cutter stuff here. So you, it's a six or 12 month program based on your needs. So you get to choose how long you want to work with me six or 12 months. And what i've I've done it in a way where.
00:04:44
chrisyzen
to help you sort of ah help yourself and your partner I've done it so the partner or the spouse of the person of the client that enrolls right so you can join with your with your partner or your spouse ah for a nominal fee which could depending on the length of the program you choose would be um up to a 78% discount for your spouse or your partner to join and the reason I want to offer this to folks is because it really helps if both both ah people are are in it if you know what I mean because the more supportive your spouse slash partner is the better results you will get and then the more just the the happier and healthier you are going to become the the more you increase your longevity together and then if you have kids

Understanding the Health Spectrum

00:05:39
chrisyzen
that they're going to reap a lot of those benefits. So I want to make it as much of a no brainer if you have a spouse or a partner to get them to come along for the ride. And the thing is, so the the like, like ah you if you'll be listening to to me already a little bit, you know that I've worked with people with very serious health problems. So I sometimes explain health as a spectrum, right? So on the one side of the spectrum, you have optimal peak vibrant health and then on the other side you're like bedridden with disease so that's a very much a continuous spectrum which means that if you have existing health problems health challenges you're you're kind of on one end of the spectrum
00:06:22
chrisyzen
And the way we get you to optimal health and longevity is just pushing you or moving you along the the continuum towards vibrant health. And the way we do that is, that so I guess the point here is,
00:06:35
chrisyzen
the approach to health challenges and the approach to someone who has decent health already, and how we optimize that health, is very much the same. We're always looking for imbalances, except in a person with health challenges, like you you might have some genuine health problems, some even some diagnosis. In those instances, we just need to you know give the person a lot more support they have to be a little bit more um have their ducks in a row whereas a person that is it like a six seven plus on the spectrum they can get away with more they can get away with doing less stuff they can have the occasional indulgence and splurge so but the the point there is that

Comprehensive Health Assessment Process

00:07:19
chrisyzen
no matter where you are in your health journey, we will meet you where we are where you're at and elevate you to the next level and the next level and the next level. This is what it's all about. And when I say the program is personalized, this is what the the simple three-step process is about, right? So the first step in this process is to assess your state of health. So the way we do that is I have this comprehensive health assessment that will take you 30 to 45 minutes you can do it on your iPad, phone, computer. It will take you 30-40 minutes to complete and that will give me a really deep analysis of your signs, symptoms, health history and stuff like that. Very very easy to do but gives me a lot of insights already.
00:08:09
chrisyzen
Then with that data, we're going to sit down together for a one-to-one initial consultation, 75 minutes, where I will ask you some questions. We can you know understand exactly what your health challenges are currently and what health calls you have.
00:08:24
chrisyzen
And I can learn a bit more about you know your job, your stressors, all of that stuff that's really relevant in helping to then you know feed into the the next step, which I'll cover in a

Role of Lab Tests in Identifying Imbalances

00:08:36
chrisyzen
second. And then based on that initial consultation,
00:08:39
chrisyzen
with our conversation, I can also recommend and order for you affordable and very convenient functional lab tests. And we have two to three core lab tests that I like to run in this live longer form, ah live longer formula format, because though I'm just trying to make it as affordable, of course, for people. And so you know you don't have to do a bunch of different tests and coordinate all that.
00:09:05
chrisyzen
ah collecting of samples which is easy but you know you still have to you know get a ring ah ring the courier to come to your house um so we'd like to do two to three maximum tests to begin with which will give us a really nice snapshot of the metabolism if a person ah either has gut problems or we suspect they have a gut component contributing to other health issues then we can do a stool test very simple collection at home and then the The other tests are we do a very ah cool food sensitivity test, not your run-of-the-mill IgG test. This is a test where they the lab exposes your blood to the various foods and certain chemicals in the food supply.
00:09:50
chrisyzen
and then they measure your immune response to it. So very quickly, we will know what are you reacting the most to from your diet. We can get this out of your diet super quickly and ah significantly lower your inflammatory burden, right? This is such a game changer for so many people. um And then another test I like to run is called a metabolomics test where we, so very again, a very simple, you're just being a little cup and you wait for the guy to come, the career to come. And with that, we can really get so many insights in terms of like fun ah fungal stuff, candida,
00:10:26
chrisyzen
ah nutrient deficiencies oxidative stress antioxidant status we can see if you're there's toxic burden right we can see various deficiencies and a few other kind of more advanced concepts there but with this and when i say two three tests like if you just if if we don't do a stool test the couple of other lab tests we do you can you can go those get those for about 900 dollars right so just just so you know it's not It's not expensive or anything like that. We try to keep it to as few tests as possible, make it as affordable as possible, make it as easy as possible for a person to get started with this process, get some lab work while we're at it. And then that this feeds into the second step, which is where I design

Creating Personalized Health Plans

00:11:18
chrisyzen
a customized health program for you, which will cover what you need. It will cover what you need. So based on my assessments, our conversation in the initial consultation, the lab testing we do, I will design a program that covers your your nutrition basis, supplementation, gut healing, hormone balancing, right? So if you're A man boosting your testosterone, making sure you're not converting it to estrogen, lowering the estrogen if you're a woman. Similarly, boosting your progesterone, lowering your estrogen, this kind of stuff, lowering your cortisol, making sure your blood sugar is balanced, your insulin is not kind of out of whack. And this is this is what I am talking about when we talk about hormone balancing. ah Stress reduction protocols, detoxification protocols, sleep and regeneration, and anything you need,
00:12:09
chrisyzen
I'm going to you know create your your health your customized health program so that you can resolve those issues and then move on to optimizing your health. So my goal for all my clients is always to resolve existing health challenges and then we can move on to optimizing health, right? So this is kind of the the journey where we're setting forth on, right? And then the third step in the program, this is where I
00:12:42
chrisyzen
provide ongoing help, support, and accountability to keep you on track, to keep you progressing so that you're never stuck, never guessing.

Ongoing Support & Building Habits

00:12:52
chrisyzen
um we we will We do twice per week Zoom calls, right? So group coaching calls where you can come ask questions or just listen in, learn from others.
00:13:03
chrisyzen
you you will have a dedicated client app with all your protocols or your lab lab work will be there. um you can We can track your diet there if if you need to be, if we decide that's a good idea, we can do all the other, so all of the stuff we need to do, all the forms you need to complete, everything is ah in one simple, convenient little app that you have on your phone. So everywhere you go, you will have my recommendations and guidance and protocols to help you, even let's say you're in the store,
00:13:31
chrisyzen
you have a list of foods that are recommended to buy, open the app, okay, I i can get this, I can get that, that is ah and it's super convenient, super easy. And also in that dedicated client app, we also have a chat support feature. So if you can't make it to a call this week, for example, you can ask a question and we will help you with whatever you need help. So you are, again, never left guessing, never stuck always.
00:14:00
chrisyzen
You will always have the help and the support to keep progressing. And over time, what I found is people need a little bit more support at the beginning. So they ask a a few more, you know, ah ah they ask more questions. They kind of need a little bit more hand holding at the start. But then as they start building these micro habits two, three months down the line, ah it becomes second nature. And this is the beautiful thing. This is why I believe, again, this is probably the best thing you could do for your health is working with me is because not only will I help assess what's what's going on with your help when pinpoint any imbalances that we can address,
00:14:42
chrisyzen
Not only will I give it the step-by-step protocols to do that, but every step of the way I will be with you. And this is where I think a lot of a lot of um practitioners fail their clients is they don't They give them the recommendations, but they don't follow up and without this follow-up process a lot of people they revert back to old habits and they kind of They do things really well for a while then they slip up for whatever reason then if it's not perfect it means you I'm not doing anything and this this I think is such a it's an

Transforming Health Over 6-12 Months

00:15:20
chrisyzen
such an impediment to you know to living a life of good health and you know having you know increasing your longevity so with with my support in the aligned phase this is the third the step in the program the aligned so it's assess address and align or the steps Here is where um we we create basically these habits and you become basically at the end of the six or 12 months, you become a new person. right you you You look at food in a different way. you're You look at supplements in a different way. You know you you just learn how to um look after your health and protect your your health and your family's health from the to toxic modern environment in a much better way.
00:16:08
chrisyzen
right and um yeah i think ah just don't Right now I don't know if I could make it any easier and more convenient to get started. All you have to really do is find the link down below in the description of this episode click on that book your free metabolic function assessment session so together we'll sit down over on the zoom call for about 45 minutes i'll give you a little form to complete that we assess various areas of your metabolism you know gut health it takes a few minutes to complete you just score zero to ten if you have any issues you know let's say if you feel angry between meals
00:16:50
chrisyzen
you could put an 8 there and if you're constipated you can put a 9 there or if you're never constipated you put a 0 there this kind of stuff very very quick and easy to do so with that we're going to sit down for this metabolic function assessment session you will tell me a bit more about some of these health challenges you're experiencing any health goals that you have some folks want to lose weight other folks want to get fitter other folks just want to sleep better some people just want to see what's under the hood and figure out how can I find any glaring imbalances that I just don't know about and this is this is the beauty of step one the assessment phase not only will I will my eyes on you kind of

Identifying Common Health Issues

00:17:34
chrisyzen
your metabolic function be very valuable because a lot of people, they just don't realize what certain signs and symptoms mean. For example, I often here i often see on the forum, anus itches is ah one of one of the things you can you can score yourself on. And people don't know that, a lot of people don't know at least, if your anus itches, it could mean parasites. So we have to have ah an approach to to to addressing that, right? So there's a lot of things where someone like myself having those eyes that those second pair of eyes on a person's metabolism can quickly identify things that are fairly glaring in terms of imbalances, right?
00:18:21
chrisyzen
um But then the lab testing is going to find the things that the naked eye corner called can't detect. So we have multiple layers of discovering imbalances and dysfunction in the body, which will then feed into the second step where we address these things systematically.
00:18:39
chrisyzen
right and I can absolutely guarantee you we will find stuff on the lab testing and I absolutely in my health assessment I absolutely every single time find multiple things for everybody that could be optimized some people with some people it's they're doing okay diet wise ah But then they could be taking certain supplements that are straight-up harmful. And this is actually quite often the case. um Sometimes they're just they don't realize they that they're even though they're getting certain foods organic, those specific foods are actually not conducive to longevity, right? um So there's a lot of different ways people trip up is just because not not because
00:19:25
chrisyzen
of of anything other than they just haven't put in the thousands and thousands of hours to figure stuff out.

Expert Guidance & Self-Sufficiency

00:19:31
chrisyzen
So with my program, I will save you the time, the money and the effort to do a lot of things and kind of waste potentially waste a lot of time Going down rabbit holes that were not worth it, right? So this again is why I very confidently can say that 999 people out of a thousand working with me for these six to twelve months depending on what you need and Perhaps your partner if they're interested in this would be the absolute Best decision you could make for your health for the long term and for the near term especially if you have some kind of health issue this is
00:20:07
chrisyzen
I have absolutely no doubt that this would be the best decision for most people. Again, because i even even my most most advanced and sophisticated clients, they have spent a lot of already time and money and effort to learn stuff. They've run their own lab tests. They've read books. They listen to podcasts. They watch YouTube videos. They take sometimes 30 supplements.
00:20:33
chrisyzen
even those most advanced clients of mine have many gaps in their knowledge not to say that I'm perfect of course I learn every day I continue learning and evolving and stuff but I'm just just by virtue of brute force in terms of how much time I've spent banging my head against the wall I'm just at this point thousands and thousands tens of thousands of hours ahead of most people so this is why I believe having this second pair of eyes on your health is going to be absolutely invaluable because I will help you see things that you're not even thinking about yet. I will teach you and educate you to at the end of the six or twelve months to not even need my help. This is always my goal for my clients is to not just to give you some protocols you follow
00:21:21
chrisyzen
and then you revert back to whatever you were doing before at the end of it you become a new person and it's a gradual slow process that is so rewarding and when you feel better have more energy in your libido when you're your your hormones are balanced and you're sleeping well you will not even want to go back to the to the previous way right and at the end of it you will know what to do When certain things happen in life when you're more stressed how to reduce your stress if you can't sleep how to ah Resolve the sleep issue you have a gut flare up what to do.
