Energize Your Day with Shawn Wells

Shawn Wells, MPH, LDN, RD, CISSN, FISSN is a product formulator and expert in the fields of performance nutrition, longevity, fitness and supplementation. He earned his master’s degree from UNC-Chapel Hill, where he studied nutritional biochemistry with a minor in exercise science. Shawn is a Registered Dietitian with a decade of experience as a Chief Clinical Dietitian in hospitals and skilled nursing facilities. He is also a Certified Sports Nutritionist and has worked with celebrity clients and professional athletes.  On the road to being dubbed “The World’s Greatest Formulator”, Biohacktivitst, and Keto Authority, Shawn faced and overcame significant obstacles with his own health—weight issues, depression, autoimmune conditions (Epstein-Barr, Fibromyalgia, and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome), two cervical discs replacements, and a pituitary adenoma, which is a type of brain tumor. They say everything happens for a reason, and in Shawn’s case, his health problems led him down a winding path that required him to find science-based solutions, and they sparked his personal passion for biohacking.  In the supplement industry, Shawn has held the titles of Director of Research and Development for Dymatize Nutrition® and Chief Scientific Officer for BioTrust Nutrition®. In addition to these appointments, Shawn is a co-founder of the popular patented ingredients TeaCrine® and Dynamine®, which are featured or used in over 300 products worldwide. He also has worked on patents on exogenous ketones, glucose tolerance agents, and more as the founding partner of the World’s Greatest Ingredients, LLC, alongside a team of PhDs and scientists.  Shawn also is the CEO of Zone Halo Research, a consulting group for supplement formulations, sourcing, manufacturing, marketing, and regulatory/compliance work.  Shawn proudly serves on the Journal of the International Society of Sports Nutrition (JISSN) editorial board, and he has co-written a chapter on creatine in the most recent ISSN textbook Sports Nutrition and Performance Enhancing Supplements. He was also named to the prestigious ISSN advisory board, as well as having received the honor of being named Fellow of the ISSN.  --  LINKS  Website: https://shawnwells.com/Book: https://www.energyformula.com/  --  Follow Shawn Wells   Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/shawnwells  Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Ingredientologist/  Twitter: https://twitter.com/Ingredientology  YouTube:  https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCWWgultg3iZLjT7MxHnOj9Q  Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ingredientologist/  Pinterest: https://www.pinterest.co.uk/Ingredientologist/  --  SUBSCRIBE TO THE PODCAST: (Please feel free to give us a 5 star review as it helps with getting the word out, thank you!)  iTunes: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-roots-of-success-podcast/id1357814847   Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/6isw9lx9NzpBnqWZIqYzxC  YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DpQXCvgPu2Y  --  FOLLOW NATE THE GREAT:  Follow Nate on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/natethegreat  Follow Nate on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/natethegreatpeterman  Follow Nate on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/natethegreatpeterman  Follow Nate on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/nate-peterman-0944b1b5/  Follow Nate on TikTok: http://vm.tiktok.com/B2AYnC/  Follow Nate on Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/natetgpeterman  Follow Nate on SnapChat: https://www.snapchat.com/natetgpeterman  --  Hit that Subscribe/Follow button for more valuable content!
