Paleo Lifestyle and Fitness Podcast, Episode 124

Dr. Fred Navarro joins us today!   Dr. Frederick Navarro is a professional health researcher with over 20 years of experience in national and international health research, a PhD in health psychology, and an MA in psychological research.  After an early career in healthcare marketing research as a manager and director, Dr. Navarro, in partnership with national health plans and hospitals, spent the next decade studying and researching health-related behavior relationships to health, physical activity, health literacy, and conditions such as high blood pressure, overweight, diabetes, and affective disorders. The crowning achievement of Dr. Navarro’s research was the development and discovery of the Patterns of Adapting to Health (PATH). Validated with over a quarter-million adults interviews from throughout the U.S., the PATH represent different patterns or trajectories of adaptive health behavior adults unconsciously adopt early in adult life, and which subsequently shape their health, health risks, and demand for health care services through all life stages. Dr. Navarro is a proud husband, father, and grandfather.
