Mark Sisson
"Jorge has been one of the most consistent voices in this space for three decades — and he practices exactly what he preaches."
Backstage at Expo West in Anaheim — Mark Sisson (founder of Primal Kitchen and Primal Blueprint, and one of the original architects of the ancestral-health movement) and me in my Zero Hunger Water® shirt. Mark and I have crossed paths for years across the low-carb, fasting and metabolic-health worlds, and he was generous enough to sit down with me on the Jorge Cruise Podcast to talk sodium, hunger and how to actually keep muscle after 50. His work on primal eating is one of the reasons the muscular-repair pillar of the MORE TIME PROTOCOL® exists in the form it does today.

Dr. Will Cole is one of the most trusted functional-medicine voices working today. On The Art of Being Well podcast he sat down with Jorge for a deep conversation on the science and spirituality of stopping sugar and carb cravings — a rare crossover between clinical practice and the belly-fat work Jorge has been publishing for two decades.

Read the story →Mehmet Oz, M.D.
"Jorge, you have made this so simple that anybody can do it."
Cardiothoracic surgeon and host of The Dr. Oz Show, Dr. Mehmet Oz brought Jorge back roughly thirteen times across the run of the show — more than almost any other guest in the weight-loss space. Their best-known collaboration is the Skinny Muffin, which aired as the Morning Microwave Muffin and became one of the biggest audience reactions of Jorge's television career. Dr. Oz has also lent his voice to Jorge's books.

"Salt is the missing weight-loss key — the electrolyte lens behind Zero Hunger Water®."
Cardiovascular research scientist and author of The Salt Fix, Dr. James DiNicolantonio joined Jorge to explain why the low-salt orthodoxy has quietly worked against metabolic health. His electrolyte research is the scientific backbone of Zero Hunger Water® and the four-sticks-a-day protocol.

Open →Dr. Jason Fung
"Excess sugar, not calories, drives belly fat."
Nephrologist and author of The Obesity Code, Dr. Jason Fung wrote the foreword to Jorge's 2019 book The Cruise Control Diet (Random House). His clinical work on insulin, fasting and metabolic disease gave the book its scientific spine and helped push the sugar-first message into the mainstream.
