Manage episode 485006845 series 2887088
Welcome back to TPOW Labs, where it’s not just about building wealth—but building a body and life that let you enjoy it for decades to come. In today’s deeply personal episode, we go under the hood of the human operating system: your gut, your blood, and how they may be silently sabotaging your best efforts in fitness, focus, and performance.
Dustin, opens up about his own journey—from two-a-day workouts since age 15 to hitting a frustrating plateau, despite doing “everything right.” It wasn’t until he combined micronutrient blood testing and a gut biome analysis that things clicked. The shocking result? Only 25% of protein and 20% of vitamins were being absorbed, despite a clean diet and premium supplements.
You’ll Learn:
- Why most biohacking is just expensive guessing
- How gut health and blood chemistry hold the keys to true optimization
- What a stool test can reveal about nutrient absorption and inflammation
- How Dustin customized his protocol and saw rapid shifts in body comp, energy, and performance
- 3 questions to ask your doctor to start your own testing journey
This is not a supplement pitch—it’s a reality check. You may be doing all the right things… but if your gut and blood don’t agree, you’re leaving results (and money) on the table.
Key Quote:
"We spend money on optimization, but are we actually measuring if it’s working?”
