Systems Approach

Our bodies are complex. 3X4 looks at how our genes work together in cellular pathways and functional systems to control processes such as inflammation, metabolism, and detoxification.

Going Upstream

Traditionally, we have spent far too much time focusing on trying to fix symptoms. At 3X4, we want to change this by understanding what’s happening at a deep cellular level so we can prevent, delay, or reverse disease.

Sustainable Change

We believe that health is not a static condition, but a daily choice. Using our Blueprint and the guidance of an expert practitioner you can gain a deeper understanding of your body and the daily choices you need to make.

Jeff is arguably a pioneer of modern medicine, defining functional medicine as we know it today. For over 35 years, he has guided the evolution of functional nutrition and medicine, authored 11 books on the subject and is the principal author of over 120 peer-reviewed scientific articles. Jeff has been the CEO of HealthComm International, the Chief Science Officer for Metagenics, as well as the president of MetaProteomics where he led a team of over 100 research scientists.
