"I lost 120 pounds not through willpower, but by hacking my biology." – Shane Grindle, Palm Health Founder & Navy veteran
What if losing weight has nothing to do with willpower?
At Palm Health in Jacksonville, we’ve discovered a truth most clinics ignore: Weight regain isn’t failure—it’s biology. While 90% of people who lose weight gain it back within years, our tech-forward approach tackles the hidden forces sabotaging your efforts. Your body is natively encouraged to store fat for food shortages. In 2025, the opposite is true, and food is abundantly available. It takes advanced knowledge, treatments, and interventions to counteract thousands of years of human body adaptation.
The Palm Health Difference: Where Military Strategy Meets Marvel-Inspired Innovation
From Navy Veteran to Metabolic Maverick
“In the military, we didn’t fight battles without intel. Why should weight loss be different?”
– Shane Grindle U.S. Navy Veteran & Tech Enthusiast
My 120-pound transformation began at the Mayo Clinic. Traditional approaches didn't work—for them or me. That's why we developed:
· Metabolic forensics: Advanced continuous glucose monitors (CGMs) that act like “black boxes” for your metabolism.
· Insulin optimization: Science-backed peptide therapies to reset your body’s fat-storage signals.
· Peptide precision: Advanced therapies that reset fat-storage signals (more effective than my year of keto)
· Cortisol combat training: Infrared sauna sessions that lower stress hormones better than meditation.

The Counterintuitive Truths Driving Our Approach
1. “Calories In/Calories Out” Is Dead
Decades of research show not all calories are equal.
Our solution: Peptide therapies like Tesamorelin that:
· Target visceral fat 3x more effectively than diet alone.
· Preserve lean muscle mass during weight loss
· Cost 40% less than commercial weight loss programs through our direct care model
“Think of hormones as Thanos—control it, and you control the universe of your metabolism.”
2. Your Smartphone Is Your Worst Diet Enemy
Blue light exposure after sunset:
· Disrupts leptin (satiety hormone) by 23%
· Increases late-night cravings by 37%
Our solution? Tech detox protocols paired with practical advice for busy professionals.
3. Veterans Get Results Civilians Don’t
Leveraging military-grade discipline:
· 100% program completion rate vs. 54% industry average
· 68% maintain weight loss at 2 years (3x national average)
