Fix Chronic Disease at Its Root with Metabolomics & Health Optimization | SNH Podcast #127

Author: Health Optimization Medicine and Practice June 11, 2025 Duration: 33:16

In this episode & live round-table of the Smarter Not Harder Podcast, Boomer Anderson sits down with Dr. Scott Sherr, Dr. Ted Achacoso, Dr. Jup Kuipers, and Dr. Allen Bookatz to unpack the shift from "sick-care" to genuine health-care. Drawing on stories from primary care, the ER, and longevity practice, they explain how the Health Optimization Medicine (HOMe) model uses metabolomics, gut testing, and evolutionary biology to keep you thriving—long before disease strikes.

Join us as we delve into:

  • Why traditional, disease-centered medicine struggles with chronic conditions
  • The HOMeHOPe framework and its focus on cellular & holobiome health
  • Real-world cases that reveal the cost of treating symptoms instead of root causes
  • How medical education must evolve to create a true "standard of care for health"

This episode is for you if:

  • You're frustrated by the limits of conventional check-ups
  • You want practical ways to apply lab data beyond "normal" reference ranges
  • You're a practitioner ready to integrate proactive, personalized strategies
  • You believe healthspan—not just lifespan—should be the goal
