The Metabolic Defense Project

Nationwide wellness membership · all 50 states

Your metabolism needs more than another plan.

You may already know that protein, strength, sleep, nutrition, and consistency matter. The hard part is knowing what to focus on and continuing when life gets busy.

The Metabolic Defense Project gives you clear education, practical tools, and live monthly support to help you protect your strength, support your metabolic health, and build habits you can maintain.

Whether you are taking a GLP-1 prescribed elsewhere, thinking ahead to what comes next, or working on your health without medication, you do not have to piece everything together alone.

$39 per month · cancel anytime

Less than $1.30 per day for courses, practical resources, live coaching, replays, and member supplement pricing.

Available nationwide as a wellness education and coaching membership. Medical care is not included.

The real gap

If knowing what to do were enough, you would already be doing it consistently.

The Metabolic Defense Project was created to close the gap between knowing what matters and making it part of your real life.

Do I need to be taking a GLP-1?

No. The membership is for people taking a GLP-1 prescribed by another clinician, thinking ahead to what comes next, or working on their metabolic health without medication.

Weight may be one of your goals, but the membership looks beyond the number on the scale. The focus includes strength, muscle, nutrition, movement, metabolic health, and sustainable daily habits.

Who leads the group coaching?

Monthly sessions are led by Daniel Erwin. These are general wellness coaching sessions for Metabolic Defense Project members and are separate from coaching provided within Root & Remedy Integrative Care medical memberships.

Are the sessions recorded?

The educational portion of each session is recorded and added to the Vault so members can watch it later.

Are supplements included?

Is this medical care?

No. The Metabolic Defense Project provides general wellness education, coaching, and community support. It does not include medical evaluation, diagnosis, laboratory interpretation, prescribing, or individualized medical, supplement, or treatment recommendations.
