If you’re exploring ways to truly improve your health through supplements and whole-body wellness, you’ll want to meet the person behind some of the most compelling ideas in this space: Peter Glidden, ND. With decades of clinical experience and a deep, passionate commitment to holistic health, Dr. Glidden is a voice worth hearing — and you’ll soon discover why you’ll want to become his student, not simply his patient.
A Brief Background
-
Dr. Glidden earned his Bachelor of Science at University of Massachusetts Amherst and went on to receive his Doctor of Naturopathic Medicine (ND) at Bastyr University in Seattle.
-
His practice spans 30+ years of clinical experience, working in naturopathic modalities and lecturing widely on health and wellness.
-
He is an outspoken advocate of what he terms wholistic or holistic healthcare — looking beyond symptom-management and focusing on root causes, nutrition, detoxification, and the body’s innate healing capacity.
Why He Isn’t Looking for “Patients”
Here’s something interesting: He isn’t looking for patients. He wants students.
Why? Because the way he sees it, long-term health is not something he “does for you” once and you’re done. It’s a journey he guides you through — teaching you the principles, frameworks and tools so you can take charge of your health.
That mindset shift (“I’m a student, not a patient”) is important — because when you change the role, you change the results.
His Success Story in 90 Essentials
In his clinical experience spanning over three decades, Dr. Glidden has worked with a particular supplement protocol — designed around foundational nutrients he considers essential. He reports that when clients follow this “Essential 90” protocol (a set of core nutrients, combined with lifestyle support) they achieve impressive outcomes: in as little as three months, he has seen an 83% success rate among those who adhere to the full protocol.
That kind of success isn’t about a quick fix. It’s about returning the body to function and vitality.
Why He Recommends the Products He Does
Over his long career, Dr Glidden has had access to over 200 supplement lines – many of which were only available to doctors. But he believes there are core nutrients and formulas that truly deliver. And in his view, those have consistently been the offerings of Youngevity (and the science behind them). In his words:
“In 35 years of doing this, these are the best products I’ve come across.”
He emphasizes the importance of high-quality, foundational nutrients and protocols that correct core imbalances such as nutritional deficiencies, toxin buildup, gut issues, and hormonal disruption. Once the body receives the proper raw materials, its natural ability to heal can take over.
