The entrepreneur said that he had a rude awakening which made him change his entire lifestyle. He acknowledged in a post on X (formerly Twitter), “Three years ago I wasn’t in a good place. A lifetime consuming a sad American diet of fast food, junk food, and processed sugar. Fighting through ten years of chronic depression in my 20s. And entrepreneur martyrdom, doing anything for professional success including skipping sleep and ignoring basic self care. Worn down and fed up, I endeavored to assess what the best science could do for my health.”
