  • 215. Metabolism and Wellness with Martin Pytela
    2025/05/19

    Your cravings might be telling you more than you think. Martin, once a refugee from Czechoslovakia, shares how his own health struggles led him to Metabolic Typing—a method that connects your dominant glands and nervous system to the foods and workouts your body actually needs. Whether you reach for carbs, creamy treats, or savory meals, there’s a reason behind it.

    Martin explains how balancing acidity and alkalinity, and tailoring exercise to your body type, can shift your health, mood, and weight for the better. If you’re tired of guessing what’s right for your body, his story offers a clear and practical way to start understanding it.

    About Martin Pytela:

    Martin Pytela, a respected functional medicine expert and Metabolic Typing coach, is dedicated to "Restoring Vitality to You and the Planet." His journey began after receiving a dozen mercury amalgam fillings as a young immigrant to Canada, which led to years of unexplained health challenges, including severe allergies, debilitating back pain, and periodontal disease. Despite consulting numerous professionals, none identified mercury toxicity as the root cause.

    Taking matters into his own hands, Martin embraced natural healing methods, incorporating raw foods, detoxification, and proper food combining. Over time, he reversed many of his ailments, with back pain subsiding in five years and allergies disappearing after a decade.

    Since 2011, Martin has coached over 12,000 clients and shared his expertise with more than 60,000 students on Udemy. His teachings cover healing trauma, managing stress, weight loss, metabolism, longevity, mindfulness, gut health, and more. Through his Life Enthusiast website, Martin provides resources and solutions to inspire hope and healing for individuals and the planet.
