In this testimonial, serial entrepreneur Ral West from Sitka, Alaska, shares his experience with the Living Light Metabolic Coach 10‑week Metabolic Reset program. Facing pre‑diabetic blood‑sugar levels and a family history of type 2 diabetes, Ral had previously relied on GLP‑1 medication to control his glucose. He enrolled in the program to maximize health and longevity for his grandchildren. The program provided extensive testing—including saliva, blood, stool, and DNA analysis—which identified a personalized paleo diet as optimal for his genetics. Over the course of the reset, he lost unexpected weight, shedding more than three inches from his waist, and reported improvements in chronic issues such as hand arthritis, sinus headaches, itchy skin, and restless legs. Sleep quality dramatically improved; he now tracks sleep with an Oura Ring, noting fewer night awakenings and reduced sinus headaches. Ral also attended a couples retreat led by program founders Sachin and Deepa, reinforcing the holistic lifestyle approach. He emphasizes the program’s comprehensive nature—covering diet, exercise, stress, and sleep—and urges viewers to consider how much better their lives could be if they address hidden health issues now rather than decades later.

Most of my life, my struggle has been my weight. I found Living Light Metabolic Coach Metabolic Coach Metabolic Coach and through their program, I lost additional weight that I didn't think I needed to lose. I didn't know this body existed under that. So that's, that's been kind of a bonus. As I joined the program just to, just to maximize my health, I was very healthy, but I had some minor little annoying things like I have arthritis in my hands and sinus headaches., you know, itchy skin here and there and restless legs at night. And in the process of doing the metabolic reset over the past weeks, those issues are starting to go away. They're noticeably better. Hello, I'm Ral West. I live in Sitka, Alaska, and I'm a serial entrepreneur, have been for 45 years. Being healthy is very important to me because I have 4 grandchildren and I want to be around for a long, long time. I've been a seeker of longevity and good health for several years. I'm in what people would call the winter phase of my life, although I plan on having a really, really long winter. As far as dieting goes, oh, you know, throughout my life I've been on like just about every diet. You know, you name it, I've probably tried it. And the thing that worked best for me prior to Living Light Metabolic Coach was just taking the GLP-1 things because I tended to have high blood sugar and I was getting into the pre-diabetic range and I didn't want that. My father had type 2 diabetes late in his life and that's what actually killed him. And so when I see these numbers creeping into that pre-diabetic range, I just went, no, no, no, no, No, no, no, we're not, we're not doing that. We're not going there. So now I think that the diet that we did for the 10 weeks of the metabolic reset certainly lost the weight faster, hopefully more permanently. I think that it's a comprehensive program. It's not just about diet. They test everything. You know, you get a saliva test, a blood test. I even, you know, did a stool sample. That was a lot of fun. And You know, found out things that, oh, you know, I just had no idea that this was the way my body functions. There's so much information and it takes a while to absorb it, but figuring out the right diet for me as a result of the DNA test, turns out the best diet for my body is a paleo diet. Like, who knew? There's just lots of information that helps with everything from sleep to exercise to stress. You know, all the facets of a healthy lifestyle is covered. We attended a couples retreat. Sachin and Deepa were there, so we met them, we got to know them, learned about their program, and the leaders of the couples retreat had done the metabolic reset and were extolling its virtues. They said they just have more energy and feel better than they had in, you know, many, many years. And that appealed to me. After starting the program, it was surprising how little I could eat and feel okay. The quantities were measured and, you know, counted. And I don't like the having to count calories and having to record everything that I eat, but I kind of got used to it. And then as I started to drop weight that, as I said, I didn't really think I needed to lose. I was like, "Whoa, what's going on here?" I lost over 3 inches off my waist. I think one of the biggest improvements that I've noticed is in my sleep. I would often wake up in the middle of the night and not be able to get back to sleep. I'd get sinus headaches in the middle of the night. I'd get restless legs. So I recognized that Oh, I'm not dreading going to bed like I used to. And now my sleep is still not perfect. I'm, I, they, they give you an Oura Ring. So I'm using that to measure and quantify and qualify my sleeps, which is great data. So I'd say, you know, overall the quality of life is better. If you're thinking about joining Living Light Metabolic Coach, I think you should ask yourself, what could my life be like if I found ways to improve it in ways I didn't even dream I could. Ask yourself, what if you didn't do that? What if you stayed the way you are for another 20 or 30 years? Ask yourself which you'd rather have, same or something much better?
