This week’s episode of The Metabolic Link features an illuminating conversation between our host Dr. Dom D’Agostino and Chad Vanags, a successful entrepreneur who is navigating a stage 4 cancer diagnosis with courage and purpose.
After being diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer in 2022 at just 39 years old, Chad has been documenting his journey to becoming “metabolically, physically, and mentally elite” to continue pursuing his life's vision.
In this wide-ranging discussion, we cover:
💪 Chad's backstory as a thriving entrepreneur before his "unlucky" diagnosis
💪 His shift in mindset after being told he has just months left to live
💪 Becoming "elite" across metabolic, physical, and mental health
💪 The stress-health connection and cancer as a "metabolic disease"
💪 The motivation gap - why many patients don't embrace lifestyle factors that could help outcomes
💪 Chad's advice for navigating a diagnosis with mental resilience
