Founders
William L. Wolcott is the world’s leading authority on Metabolic Typing®, a revolutionary technology that enables people to optimize their health and fitness by identifying their own highly individualized nutritional and lifestyle needs, and tailoring their diets and lifestyles accordingly.
As a nutritional and ecological lifestyle expert, Bill has a unique background. For nearly 40 years he has provided technical consulting services to health professionals throughout the world – including MDs, osteopaths, dentists, naturopaths, chiropractors, acupuncturists, nutritionists, health coaches, personal trainers, etc . In this capacity, Bill has personally developed computer-based, customized “metabolic profiles” on hundreds of thousands of patients.
Practitioners throughout the world use Bill’s Metabolic Typing® profiles as the basis of tailor-made therapeutic regimes for people with many different types of chronic health problems. Over the years these customized metabolic protocols have proven to be remarkably effective in helping to prevent and reverse all kinds of chronic ailments.
Although the traditional health care system excels in the treatment of medical emergencies, traumatic injuries and acute health problems of short duration, it’s never been oriented toward effective management of chronic, long-term health disorders nor has it been an information resource for how to obtain and maintain optimal health.
As many people are aware, chronic health problems do not typically respond to conventional medical treatments such as drug and surgical intervention. Instead, they most often require lifestyle modification, especially in the area of diet and nutrition.
For many years, scientists and health practitioners worldwide have recognized the critical importance of nutritional therapy. Clinicians have been intensely interested in offering effective nutritional guidance to patients, yet they’ve been frustrated by the inability to find nutritional solutions that work well for everyone.
However, as far back as the 1930s, scientists and researchers began to identify specific ways in which human beings differ from one another on a biochemical or metabolic level, due largely to genetic inheritance. Based on this information, researchers also began to discover that many kinds of chronic ailments could be resolved when people adopted dietary and nutritional regimes compatible with their own unique body chemistry. They began to differentiate people from one another on the basis of their biochemical individuality — their “metabolic type.”
Over the course of the 20th century, many leading scientists and clinicians contributed to the field that has come to be known as “Metabolic Typing®.” It is actually the culmination of 90 years of pioneering research on the part of many of the 20th century’s most significant nutritional researchers – including Francis Pottenger, M.D., Weston Price, D.D.S., Royal Lee, D.D.S., Emmanuel Revici, M.D., William Donald Kelley, D.D.S., George Watson, Ph.D., and Roger Williams, Ph.D.
Beginning in the late 1970s, Bill Wolcott joined this cadre of researchers and over the last two decades has played a pivotal role in advancing the field of Metabolic Typing® into a very sophisticated health and ecological lifestyle discipline. For example, in 1983 he discovered critical new dimensions of the way in which human metabolism is controlled by the Oxidative System and the Autonomic Nervous System which he coined ”The Dominance Factor.” Bill published a paper on this topic and over the course of the following 3 decades made many additional discoveries that continued to transform Metabolic Typing® into a multi-dimensional clinical and academic discipline.
Unlike other current dietary approaches which distinguish people from one another on the basis of single variables – such as body typing and blood typing – Metabolic Typing® utilizes many different aspects of a person’s physiological makeup in order to specify a diet and lifestyle program appropriate for that person. Metabolic Typing® uses multiple biochemical or metabolic indicators and seeks to identify patterns among these variables – patterns that reveal how a person’s system is genetically designed to digest and utilize or “process” specific foods and nutrients into energy.
In 1987, Bill and his wife Suzi Wolcott founded Healthexcel, a unique technical consulting organization based in Winthrop, Washington. Bill’s highly specialized expertise in the area of nutritional biochemistry – combined with his prodigious abilities in the realm of computer science – have made Healthexcel a leading edge provider of customized nutrition products and services.
Mission
We believe that the body is designed to be healthy, that good health is everyone’s birthright, that the ability to experience ideal health is part of the genetic code built into every cell in the body, and that what you need to do in order to reclaim your birthright of radiant health and achieve your genetic potential is to understand through Metabolic Typing® what YOUR body needs as opposed to someone else’s, in order to function the way it was intended.
To this end, Healthexcel provides Metabolic Typing® research, a series of computerized Metabolic Typing® analyses, designing of Metabolic Typing® customized nutrition and ecological lifestyle programs, Metabolic Typing® training and certification for health professionals, the creation of specific Metabolic Typing® nutritional formulas, turn-key Metabolic Typing® systems for health professionals, and international Metabolic Typing® consulting services.
Our mission is to bring the wondrous and time-tested technology of Metabolic Typing® to the world for the benefit of all mankind and to safeguard the technology for all future generations to come.
