“My mission has to be to help a billion plus people to become metabolically healthy,” says Neil Gyte, former Google executive turned wellness innovator, who joins the Quantum Biology Collective Podcast to share his journey from leading Google Maps and Earth to building a groundbreaking AI platform for quantum and metabolic health.
After witnessing firsthand the limits of conventional healthcare—and a pivotal health crisis in his own family—Neil Gyte was inspired to leverage his tech expertise for a new purpose: empowering people to reclaim root-cause health. In today’s episode, he reveals what led him to leave a dream job in Silicon Valley and how metabolic and quantum biology research opened his eyes to the preventable nature of most chronic disease, from diabetes to cancer.
Neil Gyte discusses the launch of Metabolic Wise, an independent AI-powered tool designed to cut through mainstream health misinformation and deliver evidence-based answers about mitochondrial health, disease reversal, and quantum biology. He also explores why so many chronic conditions are misunderstood, the revolutionary potential of metabolic therapies, and how technology can democratize access to life-changing information—no small goals required.
Tune in to learn how Neil Gyte is leading the charge to create a new bridge between tech and true root-cause health, why chronic disease stats are a call to action, and the untapped wisdom of our mitochondria.
5 Key Takeaways
- Don’t wait for a crisis to address your health—start small by getting morning sunlight, improving your sleep, and questioning mainstream information.
- Take charge of your well-being: seek out root-cause knowledge and explore metabolic and quantum health perspectives beyond standard medical advice.
- Share transformative resources with your community—tools like Metabolic Wise make it easy to empower friends and family with accessible, evidence-based insights.
- Tune in to your own body—track your habits if you need accountability, but aim to reconnect and trust your inner signals above all.
- If you’ve experienced a health transformation, document and share your story—you could inspire someone else’s healing journey and help build a library of hope.
Memorable Quotes
"I realized the vast majority of chronic diseases are preventable and reversible, and I've seen firsthand the suffering that happens in parallel with these conditions. That was one of the pivotal moments that made me decide to leave Google and set myself a new mission."
"Hopefully what we've built is designed to be the glitches in the Matrix and to offer you that red pill—to choose to go into a totally different world, because the reality is most people are living in a big food, big pharma, big tech-driven world. It is literally the Matrix."
"Our bodies are being exposed to much more stress from so many different angles than we’re designed for. The combination of mitochondrial dysfunction and nervous system dysregulation is actually at the root of pretty much all of the modern diseases."
