Key Discussion Points & Insights

1. Boomer’s Personal Journey & Entrepreneurial Motivation

[02:06-05:01]

• Family Influence: Boomer grew up with a yoga teacher mother and finance professional father, nurturing an appreciation for both health and behavior analysis.
• Intersectional Inspiration: Early work in investment banking triggered an interest in how health affects performance, seeing parallels between finance (macroscale human behavior) and biochemistry (microscale human behavior).
• Life-altering Diagnosis: Boomer’s fast-track finance career abruptly shifted focus after a cardiac CT scan revealed heart disease at 30.

  "What was just interest in health then became my full time attention because I was trying to look for the answer to how do I not die at an early age." (B, [04:29])

• Pattern Recognition as Superpower: A curiosity for finding connections between disparate fields fuels Boomer’s drive and problem-solving approach.

2. The Problem with Traditional Supplements & The Troscriptions Approach

[05:13-08:23]

• Low Efficacy & Regulation Issues: The majority of the US population uses dietary supplements, but they’re “lightly regulated” and often fall short of label claims.

  "It's a very lightly regulated industry... what's on the label isn't always what you're taking." (B, [05:37])

• Quality & Innovation Gap: Troscriptions, founded by physicians for physicians, prioritizes rigor with pharmaceutical-level standards (purity, potency, contamination testing), focusing on complex issues like cognitive function, sleep, and stress rather than basic vitamins.
• Novel Approach: Instead of capsules, they use novel ingredients and delivery systems, striving for a middle ground between pharmaceuticals and supplements (“Fun Pharma”).

  "We're really setting out to do...something that's in between a pharmaceutical company and a dietary supplements company." (B, [07:31])

3. Educating Practitioners: Transforming Healthcare from Disease Management to Health Optimization

[08:23-11:42]

• Broader Education Mandate: Health Optimization Medicine and Practice (HOME/HOPe) aims to educate a wide range of practitioners—not just MDs, but also integrative specialists and health coaches.
• Systemic Problems: High US healthcare costs and unsatisfactory health outcomes show the system’s focus on “disease management,” not actual health.
• Reframing Health: Boomer advocates shifting the foundation of medicine to proactive health at the cellular level, catching minor issues (like brain fog or sleep trouble) before they escalate into crises.

  "The word health is actually not what we're doing. We're doing disease management…But who's managing your health today?" (B, [09:33])

• Burnout & Purpose: Many practitioners are burned out by insurance-driven medicine; education should reconnect them with their motivation to make people healthy.

  "You can have 99 problems, but when you have a health problem, you actually have one problem." (B, [11:21], paraphrasing Jay Z)

4. The Future: Rapid Personalization & AI-Augmented Health

[12:22-16:16]

• From One-Size-Fits-All to N=1: The traditional generalized approach must pivot to treating each individual’s biology uniquely; “women are generally treated as just complex men” in research.

  "What I'm pointing to is a world of rapid personalization, meaning that those n of 1 instances are actually how we work with each individual now." (B, [12:58])

• Technology Drivers:
  • Artificial Intelligence: AI can rapidly synthesize the world’s medical literature, enabling faster, more relevant recommendations.
  • Declining Testing Costs: Lab test prices (e.g., metabolomics) are dropping, making frequent, personalized testing feasible.

  "As the AI engine gets more and more investment money, eventually people are going to have spillover into health for individuals..." (B, [14:42])

• Practitioner + AI = Best Outcomes: The real future lies in “AI plus practitioner”—leveraging technology but keeping expert humans in the loop.

  "...AI plus physician or practitioner is the way forward [and] will lead to ideally better health outcomes for the future." (B, [16:00])

• Optimism for Change: Boomer is optimistic that these converging factors will make personalized, proactive healthcare a reality within years, not decades.

Notable Quotes & Memorable Moments

• On Health vs. Disease:

  "The word health is actually not what we're doing. We're doing disease management…But who's managing your health today?" (B, [09:33])

• On Personal Health Crisis Inspiring Innovation:

  "I got the results back. They found out that I had heart disease at the age of 30. And so what was a just interest in health then became my full time attention..." (B, [04:17])

• On Industry Standards:

  "We're just not going to do clinical trials yet because people need help now and clinical trials are prohibitively expensive." (B, [08:10])

• On Personalization and Technology:

  "Instead of you taking whatever influencer is recommending a particular supplement today, you're going to know exactly what your body needs and you almost might know it in real time." (B, [13:13])

• On the Human + AI Future:

  "AI plus practitioner is the way forward [and] will lead to ideally better health outcomes for the future." (B, [16:00])
