Optimal Metabolism Podcast

Daniel White is the founder of Sleep Better Live Better, a company dedicated to creating innovative sleep solutions for ultimate human potential that results from being well-rested. The CRD (Circadian Rhythm Disruption) Challenge, also launched by Daniel, is a free, 21-day educational experience that will offer learners the opportunity to end this endemic of circadian disruption and realign with nature’s natural patterns.
