Kyle Kingsbury is a former football player (Arizona State), a retired American professional mixed martial artist (UFC six years), former director of Human Optimization at Onnit and host of The Kyle Kingsbury Podcast.
While fighting at the highest level, Kyle became fascinated with nutrition, performance, and recovery. Since his MMA retirement, his focus has shifted to learning more about longevity, plant medicines, and inner peace.
In this episode, we delve into Kyle's football career, his transition to fighting, and his success in the UFC. We also explore his passion for health, spirituality, and human optimization. Kyle shares vulnerably about his personal life and recounts some incredible stories about his heroic medicine journeys and the lessons he learned from them.
