About this episode
Chris Mearns is the founder of LIV3 Health and the creator of the Fructose Model, a systems-based approach focused on how fructose metabolism may influence cellular energetics and contribute to chronic metabolic dysfunction. He is a primary author involved in the development of scientific literature advancing a broader model of metabolic health.
His work integrates findings across biochemistry, physiology, and clinical research, with particular attention to fructokinase activity, uric acid signaling, mitochondrial function, and cellular energy dynamics. This work aims to unify established concepts, such as metabolic syndrome, mitochondrial dysfunction, inflammation, and neurodegeneration, within a common energetic framework centered on cellular energy availability and recovery capacity.
It also explores how this perspective may help reconcile existing models of metabolism while connecting survival pathways to the progression of chronic disease. Chris is known for bridging the gap between scientific research and real-world application.
Through podcast appearances and his YouTube channel, @TheFructoseModel, he translates complex metabolic science into clear, usable insights for both general audiences and health professionals. His research, educational work, and product development are guided by a central thesis: restoring metabolic resilience requires addressing upstream energetic stress, with fructose metabolism representing a central, yet often underrecognized, influence.
