Welcome back to the True Transformation Podcast! I’m your host, Josiah Novak, and today I’m thrilled to have the legendary Wade Lightheart join us. Wade is the founder and president of BiOptimizers, a company dedicated to digestive and health optimization. He’s also a three-time Canadian National all-natural bodybuilding champion and a former Mr. Universe competitor who competed as a vegetarian—how cool is that?

In this episode, Wade and I dive into our shared passion for health and fitness, inspired by none other than Arnold Schwarzenegger. We reminisce about the good old days, growing up with Arnold as our hero and how those early influences shaped our fitness journeys. Wade's story of moving to the middle of nowhere, building a gym in his barn, and his sister's battle with cancer is both inspiring and heart-wrenching.

We talk a lot about supplements and the industry’s evolution. Wade sheds light on the importance of quality products, especially those that address mineral deficiencies and digestive health. His company, BiOptimizers, is leading the way with innovative supplements like Magnesium Breakthrough, which has been a game-changer for my sleep and stress levels. Wade explains why this magnesium supplement stands out and how it’s helped so many people, including myself.

We also explore the broader supplement market, the hype versus the reality, and the critical role of personalized nutrition and genetic factors in optimizing health. Wade's advice? Get tested, understand your body, and choose supplements that truly meet your needs.

One of my favorite parts of the conversation is when Wade talks about the intersection of fitness, performance, and health. He highlights the significance of digestive enzymes, probiotics, and essential fatty acids, which are often overlooked but crucial for overall well-being.
