About us
Our Founding
Hi, I'm Nathan Ricks and I'm the founder and "Chief Health Nut" at Core Sapien. I'm also a certified health & wellness coach, as well as a certified dietary supplement specialist (click here for my coaching services).
Having grown up in the home of a yogi mother and having a spouse with complex autoimmune challenges, I'm passionate about health and longevity.
I started Core Sapien to help others on their health and longevity journey by synthesizing what I have learned and sharing the best products I find along the way.
I take a holistic view of longevity, helping you better understand the nutrition, movement, recovery, and habits that lead to a long and healthy life.
I live in Utah with my spouse and two dogs. You will often find me hiking, studying, and being an certifiable nerd!
Our Ethos
Our ethos is built on three pillars: longevity, data, and authenticity.
Longevity
Core Sapien is for humans wanting to optimize their health with a central focus on longevity. Living a long, functional, and enjoyable life is the core of our brand.
We are not for short-term gains, gym rats, and vanity metrics which detract from a focus on longevity.
Data
Data comes before all else. Our team doesn't currently have medical professionals on staff, so we rely on deep research and reputable sources to back what we say.
And if we are wrong, please call it out! Again, data before all else.
Authenticity
We only recommend products that we have tried and love ourselves. We do not make product recommendations based on profit or ulterior motives.
We strive to be as transparent as possible if we recieve an incentivize for recommending a product.
