How to turn your passion into a business.

We’ll be interviewing a ton of fabulous and successful boss babes who will share their “been there, done that” stories and inspire YOU to take the leap you’ve probably been thinking about for a while!

EPISODE 153: The Cholesterol Myth Part 2. Interview with Dr. Lane Sebring.
Worried about your cholesterol levels?
It’s amazing that in the year 2019, we still have so many misunderstandings about cholesterol. There are still these ideas floating around the fitness universe, or even the medical industry that cholesterol is all bad, and that we should still be avoiding red meat and egg yolks etc. Dr. Lane Sebring explains in great detail in this 2-part episode the real truth about cholesterol and how it affects our health and hormones in ways we probably didn’t realize. Enjoy! This is part 2 of the 2-part episode, you can listen to part 1 by CLICKING HERE.
About Dr. Lane Sebring
Dr. Lane Sebring has practiced medicine in Wimberley, Texas, for more than 18 years.
He is the founding physician of the Sebring Clinic and the developer of Paleo Non – Pharmacy. Both the clinic and pharmacy are located in the middle of 15 wooded acres in Wimberley, Texas, halfway between San Antonio and Austin in the beautiful Texas hill country. His uniquely qualified staff work in harmony at the direction of Dr. Sebring to provide patients with a comprehensive healthcare experience including bioidentical hormone therapy, HCG diet plans, brain health assessments, cardiovascular support programs, IV nutritional therapy and a “natural pharmacy” providing nutritional and herbal remedies he knows works for patients through 16 years of vetting.
Dr. Sebring completed his bachelor’s degree in biology at the University of Texas in Austin and obtained his M.D. from the University of Texas Medical Branch at Galveston; the oldest medical school west of the Mississippi. He then completed his family medicine residency at the University of Texas Health Science Center in Tyler, Texas. Wishing to work as an independent physician, Dr. Sebring opened his private practice, the Sebring Clinic, in 1996.
While working in private practice, it became apparent to Dr. Sebring that the current medical paradigm was designed to treat the symptoms of the herd and not the causal-based problem of the individual. He began attending nutritional conferences in an effort to broaden his education and understanding. He soon found that his whole paradigm changed.
Dr. Sebring served as a board examiner for the American Academy of Anti-Aging Medicine. He has become a recognized expert in Alternative and Anti-Aging Medicine and has been called the first physician to base his practice around the Paleo Diet, which he believes is the diet humans are designed to eat.
Dr. Sebring’s organ reserve and total stress load theory of aging not only best explains the unnatural aging pattern of modern humans, but lights up a pathway to avoid that unnatural pattern whereby humans maintain functionality at a high level throughout their life until death.
