DEVAN: What’s up guys? Welcome to another episode of the Mindset Cafe podcast. It’s your host, Devan Gonzalez. And today we got a special guest for you. We got Martin Pytela. He is a functional medicine expert, really focusing on metabolic-type coaching. And he has had over 1200 clients since 2011. And he has some online courses and stuff that we’re going to dig into. But I thought he would be an amazing guest for you guys because this is the Mindset Cafe where we work on mindset and personal development. So Martin, thank you so much for coming on today.

MARTIN: It’s a pleasure. Thanks.

DEVAN: So let’s dive into it a little bit. How did you get involved in the medicinal space and what led to your entrepreneurial start?

MARTIN: Yeah, I actually started out with computer Science and business administration. I had a pretty fun career in information technology and all that, but I ended up getting quite ill because of mercury toxicity in my body. I picked it up in a dentist’s office by just innocently saying, okay, well help me get my teeth right. And I had no idea that they were going to use mercury amalgam fillings. Turns out that mercury is super toxic, and my genetics are such that I don’t detoxify too well, and so I ended up just breaking down in a bad way. And so all of a sudden there I am, quite sick, like my back started to go bad and periodontal disease and allergies and you name it like it was awful, awful, awful. And so I went to the professionals, orthopedic surgeon to help me with my plantar fasciitis and a chiropractor to help me with my bad back, and a naturopath to help me with my allergies. They all went after the symptoms. They only treated the symptoms they never asked, and what’s the cause of this? And I’m in business consulting. We always do that. It’s when you come to a business and you see something that’s a problem. Then you say, well, what is causing the problem? You don’t just say, well, let’s just paint over it. But that’s what happens in the world of medicine. So that’s how I got into it. This was like in the 1980’s before the internet. So I just read a lot of books, there’s a bunch of them on my shelf still, and figured it out. It was that medicine, unlike many other things, does not ask the fundamental question, what is the root cause here? Functional medicine does. But the insurance covered, the Rockefeller Carnegie Medicine that’s ruling the mainstream, they don’t.
